    Awesome, looking forward to giving this a try on Monday. The Ninja/Zenfire combo has a lot of potential IMO.

    Yes, it does. I wish they fixed eurex volume issue so I could try it for live trading. As far as data coming in, it is on the spot when compared to X-trader.

  3. Yes, NinjaTrader...
    I posted import instructions earlier.

    Sorry for the delay, I am out of town at the moment.

  4. Thanks for the response, but these instructions make no sense to me. Additionally, I do not see an option to use NT to open these attachments.

  5. Well, first you install NinjaTrader. Then execute (open) the NT program. From the Control Panel of NT, select the File menu, then the Utilities menu, then Import... NT will automatically look in the bin/Custom folder under My Documents/NinjaTrader first.

    Do not open or unzip the file, simply point the import browser to it's location and tell it to open it.

    After that, you must, from the NT Control Panel, open the pull-down menu Tools, then Edit Ninjascript, then Indicator, and select the one you just added. One of the icons across the top of the editor window is "Compile" -- tool tips pop up to let you know which one. Simply click on it to compile (All Indicators will compile, so don't have any bad or incomplete ones in NT's folder)

    If I have not explained the point of confusion, try the NinjaTrader help (F1).

    Happy New Year!

  6. BTW, I got a question about adding Pace lines to NT charts and realized I never uploaded this one -- it is not essential as their ConstantLines indicator also draws horizontal lines. I just changed names to match those from Mak's Pace chart and added one more.

    I tried both PRV and VolumePRV but I didn't see any PRV bar

  8. From the picture you posted (thank you) PRV is there ~= current Volume as the 6548 = the PRV. Side note: I cannot get the Vol tag to go on top of the PRV tag on the Y-axis. :( and have reported that as a bug.

    If you drag all the bars over so that there is white space on the right side, you will see either PRV=6548 in this case or PRV off.
    I stop calculating PRV if the time is outside your defined session time (via chart properties). BarTimer also turns off in this case (if you are using it in your price pane).

    Because of the wild invalid jumping around when a bar first starts, you may also notice that PRV is held until the bar is at least 2% complete (2% of 5min ~=6 secs). You can certainly change that by looking at the indicator script if you disagree.

    cheers,
