This indicator displays both the session cumulative volume as it progresses versus the average historical cumulative volume for the same period. It works on minute chart only and it calculates on bar close.
The attached file is a function that scales and center raw values between a range of +50/-50. This is a derivative work from the book Statistically Sound Machine Learning for Algorithmic Trading of Financial Instruments by David Aronson and Timothy Masters. The function follows the concept of "Historical Adjustment to Improve Stationarity". An example of use of this scaling can be found in the indicator section in the multicharts section. -JZ
This indicator compares favorably to NT8 Order Flow Cumulative Delta .. without requiring tick replay or a lifetime license
The On Balance Volume indicator looks at NET volume (buyers vs sellers) for each bar and adds to the previous OBV .. so OBV goes up when there are more buyers .. OBV goes down when there are more sellers
Published in April, 2020 .. Vitali Apirine added an EMA ( [fast] smoothing line ) to the OBV indicator and called it OBVM ..
I added a second smoothing line ( [slow] smoothing line ) .. and compare the difference between the smoothing lines .. much like a MACD
Then I added a signal line, background colors, up/down arrows, and sound alerts
The alert sound file will need to be set for one of the sound files on your computer
This indicator may be a bit quick on trade alerts .. adjust the fast/slow periods accordingly .. OR .. look in the source code for two spots where OBV() is used and convert to ADL() ..
I am not a programmer .. what I've created is from what I was able to glean from indicators by other traders/programmers ..
In his article in this issue, “True Range Adjusted Exponential Moving Average (TRAdj EMA),” author Vitali Apirine presents how a security’s true range, which measures volatility, can be incorporated into a traditional exponential moving average. The trend-following indicator, called the true range adjusted exponential moving average (TRAdj EMA), applied with different lengths, can help define turning points and filter price movements. By comparing the indicator with an exponential moving average of identical length, the trader can gain insight into the overall trend.
Shift + L.Mouse Click above/below bar , originates stop loss line with point value and dollar value, 1st target @ 1:1 RR with point and dollar value and 2nd target @ 2:1 RR with point and dollar Value.
cnt + L.Mouse Click removes lines.
You can choose the total number of contracts, the contracts for the first target and the remaining (you have to input manually) for the second target. You also have the ability to input your broker commissions so the dollar amount you see is the final end result.

Note: I only trader ES, and I made it to work for ES and MES. I don't know how and if it works on other instrument, but I am sure tweaking a little bit the code you will make it work.
The HalfTrend indicator represents the trend indicator that draws zones based on moving average intersection. The indicator draws bearish and bullish invalidation zones on the chart and marks a trend shift. The Green line represents the “Long” zone, while the Red line “Short” zone.
Ported it from NT8 code from this site.

This entry is a Strategy, named: tiyfEasyOrdering.
Once installed in Ninjatrader, you'll find it within a folder named TrendIsYourFriend in the Strategies directory.
Strategy objective
To place an order automatically when specific criteria are met and manage the stop/target based on your initial risk/reward settings as defined in the parameters.
The .zip archive contains a special version of the Parabolic SAR named PSAR. The strategy needs this modified version of the indicator to function properly so don't skip it when asked during the installation.
I have created a thread dedicated to it. Every new update will be described there. So if you have any question or just want to give your feedback then go ahead and visit this page as some more precisions have been posted there :

This indicator will provide the volumetric Bar statistics in a hidden plot form. The main purpose is to provide (through 21 plots) the bar statistics values to the Strategy Builder and/or Chart alerts, and/or the Market analyzer without the need to program. You can also use in a Ninjascript indicator or strategy. The 21 plots are hidden so they will not change the display. See the screenshot to see the names of the available data points (plots).
When you select the indicator in the strategy builder or the chart alerts, you can change the plot to any of the 20 other plots so you can work with the statistic of interest.
Also, all 21 plot values will show in the charts data box window or the charts mini data box.
The indicator must be applied to a chart or data series that uses Volumetric bars.You must have the NinjaTrader lifetime license to access the Volumetric bars.
There is an option, for debugging, to print the output to the Ninjascript output window. This will show two values that should match on each line. One value is direct from the calculation and the other is from the plot (that gets it from the same calculation), the point is to remove the mystery of what data is being provided.
The idea of a channel similar to Donchian channel but one that expands in trending markets and narrows in a ranging markets was born by Alex Grover on TradingView.
This script is a conversion from original TV script to Ninjascript.
The channel breakout generally indicates beginning of a new trend and pullbacks towards middle of channel are generally reliable trend continuation signals.
I have added multi timeframe version of this script here that shows trend in a higher timeframe and pullbacks in a lower timeframe.
Improvements and additions in this script are welcome.
Great script. is it possible to add alerts for trend change and green or red traingle? Thanks for feedback.
