Thanks so much for being so generous with your indicators. In this latest addition, you said that the tick data will be saved. Does this mean that if I have my computer tracking the delta for 3 days straight, then all of a sudden ninjatrader takes a dump and closes, when I reopen I can have the data on my charts still instead of having to start tracking all over again? That would be great! Do I need to do anything special to my ninjatrader settings? For example, under tools, should I have the "record real-time data" box checked. Thanks again for all your help!!!
Yes ! No ! Keeping real-time files can be useful though, but it is not needed for the recording to work. But you can use them if you want to generate CD from past data : this is how I built my 5 days chart. To be sure recording works, start the indicator, then the chart will start building, and press F5 from time to time. You will see the data doesn't disappear : the calculated CDs are re-read from the file. You're welcome !
March 26, 2009 "I think this relief rally could retest the Jan. 6 intraday high for the year of 943.85. That's another 16% higher from yesterday's close, and 41.6% above the 666 low," noted Ed Yardeni, president of Yardeni Research. "The strength of rallies off lows during this bear market has increased as time has gone on with the weakest rallies of the bear occurring right near the beginning," said Dan Greenhaus, an analyst at Miller Tabak & Co. The trend is an interesting one, as the strongest rallies off lows during the 1973 to 1974 bear market as well as the 2000 to 2002 bear market occurred toward the end of those bear markets, said Greenhaus. http://www.smartmoney.com/news/on/?story=ON-20090326-000777-1140
Hi all, I posted the final version of the recording CD indicator for NT. Enjoy ! http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/vb/showpost.php?p=85440&postcount=173
Hey gomi: I thought I would ask you, since you seem knowledgeable enough: Is there a way to put CV bars and time bars in the same ninja chart? Thanks again for your programming efforts. I looked at your code, and it is not a trivial piece of work. In fact I don't understand most of it. JW
Well I don't quite see what you mean by that . What would a constant time/CV chart look like ? In a CV chart, each bar has a start time and an end time. How do you imagine the constant time bars fitting in ?
Well, in Multicharts for example, one can have a 10,000 CV bar as data1, a 15 minute chart as data2, a 3 point range for data3, etc. I was wondering if you knew a way to put 2 datastreams on the same chart in ninjatrader, one made of volume bars, and one made of time bars. Of course one of the charts will display with uneven spacing, same as it happens in Multicharts. JW
Well to a certain extent you can do simply certain things : see the multiple timeframes indicator http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/vb/showpost.php?p=15368&postcount=1 As you can do anything you want in a custom Plot function, you can create a CV chart under a constant time chart. You just intercept the onmarketdata and build the charts you want with the incoming ticks. This will only work in real time though... And with some code... For historical data it won't work because NinjaTrader returns a set of bars from tick database, but you can't intercept the tick flow to build your own indicators. Or you have to build your own historical data files. Oh that remembers me something
