Slow Relative Strength Index

The Slow Relative Strength Index (SRSI) is a price-following oscillator which was presented by Vitali Apirine in the April 2015 issue of the TASC magazine. It measures change in price movements relative to an exponential moving average (EMA). Like the relative strength index, it oscillates between zero and 100. SRSI is considered overbought when above 80 and oversold when below 20. SRSI can also generate signals by looking for divergences and centerline crossovers.

The SRSI is calculated using the following formula:
SRSI = 100 � [100/(1+SRS)]

SRS = Average positive difference/Average negative differencen

The SRSI measures the strength of a security relative to a sixday EMA. The closing price is used for this EMA. The difference is positive when the close is above the six-day EMA. Positive difference = [Close � Moving average]. Difference is negative when the close is below the six-day EMA. Negative difference = [Moving average � Close]. Negative difference values are expressed as positive values, not negative values. If the closing price equals the six-day EMA, then difference = 0 (no change). Smooth positive and negative difference values are based on Wilder�s smoothing technique.

Wicks V1

It's common for people to look at how large the upper or lower 'wicks' or 'shadows' are in comparison to the range of a bar. In writing strategies that do so, I got tired of re-re-coding calculations to look for especially large ones.
So, I created an indicator that shows the upper and lower wick size as a percentage of the bar's range. So, now, if I want to specify a wick that's greater than 50% of the bar's range, I can just look for instances where the indicator values are UpperWick > 50 or LowerWick < -50.

If you find looking for negative numbers cumbersome, edit the indicator and reverse the LowerWick calculations, from either (Low[0] - Open[0]) or (Low[0] - Close[0]) to (Open[0] - Low[0]) or (Close[0] - Low[0]), respectively. Then, all the histogram bars will point upwards and you can make your code always look for positive values.

I hope some of you find this indicator handy.

Thanks go to jmont1, who graciously converted this indicator to NT8.

TickBarsReassembled V0.1

This is a first test of a TickBarChart style that will reassemble ticks at the same time and price into a single tick. This is really the same order but split up so it doesn't look like a big print.

I have only tested this chart on a ticksize of 1 (seems to make the most sense to me anyway) and putting it here for others to review.

You can see in the image the shaded area that combined all the ticks from the regular TickChart into a single tick. This is because all the ticks in the tape were at 18:37:43.093 with an open of 55.08. This was merged to a single tick of volume 20.

OrderFlow SnapShot (NT8)

This is just a handy tool i made for myself and thought that maybe other traders will find it useful. As i am usually trading from charts but like to keep an eye on the orderflow, specially on areas of interest for entries or exits.

The indicator is just kind of a simple Footprint SnapShot, which can be toggled by double clicking on the chart. By holding the Control-Key while double clicking, the SnapShot will be reset.

Happy Trading,
Mike

(i am not planning to add anything else to this indicator but everybody is free to use and edit the provided code)

Updates:

- Dynamic Font-Size
- Small fixes

Trigger Lines (amaTriggerLines)

Version 1.3 September 17, 2017

The Trigger Lines indicator is composed of two lines. The leading line is a linear regression indicator (LinReg). The lagging line or signal line is an exponential moving average (EMA) of the leading line.

This indicator comes with two different options for identifying and uptrend or downtrend:

Trigger line cross: When the leading regression line crosses above the signal line, this is the beginning of an uptrend. Vice-versa the indicator signals a downtrend, as long as the leading line remains below the signal line.

Thrust bars: An uptrend is detected via an upthrust bar that closes and has a median above both trigger lines. A downtrend follows a downthrust bar that closes and has a median below both trigger lines.

The second trend definition adapts faster to changing market conditions, but also produces a higher number of false signals. The trend can be shown via paint bars. The indicator further comes with sound alerts that will signal a trend change.

Zerolag HATEMA (amaZerolagHATEMA)

Version 1.1 July 17,2017

The ZerolagHATEMA and ZerolagTEMA were presented by Sylvain Vervoort in �THE QUEST FOR RELIABLE CROSSOVERS� Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities, May 2008. The Zerolag HATEMA is based on a TEMA that uses Heikin-Ashi candles as input series. In a second step Sylvain Vervoort applied zero-lag techniques to the HATEMA to compensate for its lag. For further details, please read the article by Sylvain Vervoort.

This indicator does not depend on the selected input series, as it uses open, high, low and close of each candle. As a consequence this indicator may not be used with any other input series than price.

Version 1.0 March 17, 2017

The Zerolag TEMA and Zerolag HATEMA were presented by Sylvain Vervoort in �THE QUEST FOR RELIABLE CROSSOVERS� Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities, May 2008. The Zerolag TEMA is a version of the triple smoothed moving average which is less smooth, but more responsive to market movements. For further details read article by Sylvain Vervoort.

Sylvain Vervoort suggested to use the typical price as input series for the Zerolag TEMA. I have not hardcoded the typical price as input series. Please select the typical price as input series via the indicator dialogue box.

Session Pivots Monthly (amaPivotsMonthly)

Version 2.6 July 4, 2018

The Session Pivots Monthly is an enhanced pivots indicator which allows for displaying floor pivots, wide pivots, Jackson Zones and Fibonacci pivots.

All pivots are calculated from daily bars (default setting) or from the bar series that has been selected as input series. The indicator may be used to display ETH pivots on an full session chart or RTH pivots on a regular session chart. It is not designed to display RTH pivots on a full session chart. When pivots are calculated from daily bars, they are typically calculated from the full session high, the full session low and the settlement price. However, the daily data depends on the data supplier and reflects the daily high, low and close as shown on a daily chart.

Pivot range: The indicator is set to display the pivot range which is the range between CP and DP. The pivot range is a symmetrical range around the main pivot PP. A wide pivot range follows after a trending month with a close near the highs or the lows. A narrow pivot range indicates that the prior month was a balancing month and closed near the central pivot.

Prior month high, low and close: The indicator also displays the high, low and close for the prior trading month. These levels often act as support or resistance during the current trading month. Moreover, prior month high, low and close reflect the input data for calculating all pivot values and can be visually checked against the chart bars, while this is not possible for the pivots themselves.

Pivot formulas:

All options: H = prior month high, L = prior month low, C = prior month close, X = H - L
Main Pivot: P = (H+L+C)/3
Central Pivot: CP = (H+L)/2
Directional Pivot: DP = 2*P - CP
Floor Pivots: P = (H+L+C)/3, R1 = 2*P - L, S1 = 2*P - H, R2 = P + X, S2 = P - X, R3 = R1 + X, S3 = S1 - X, R4 = R3 + (P-L), S4 = S3 - (H-P)
Wide Pivots: P = (H+L+C)/3, R1 = 2*P - L, S1 = 2*P - H, R2 = P + X, S2 = P - X, R3 = R2 + X, S3 = S2 - X, R4 = R3 + X, S4 = S3 - X
Jackson Zones: R1 = P + 0.5*X, S1 = P - 0.5*X, RB1 = P + 0.618*X, SB1 = P - 0.618*X, R2 = P + X, S2 = P - X, RB2 = P + 1.382*X, SB2 = P - 1.382*X
Fibonacci Pivots: R1 = P + 0.382*X, S1 = P - 0.382*X, R2 = P + 0.618*X, S2 = P - 0.618*X, R3 = P + X, S3 = P - X, R4 = P + 1.382*X, S4 = P - 1.382*X

Update version 2.6.: Enhanced CPU efficiency. Minor changes.

Session Pivots Daily (amaPivotsDaily)

Version 2.6 July 4, 2018

The Session Pivots Daily is an enhanced pivots indicator which allows for displaying floor pivots, wide pivots, Jackson Zones and Fibonacci pivots.

All pivots are calculated from daily bars (default setting) or from the bar series that has been selected as input series. The indicator may be used to display ETH pivots on an full session chart or RTH pivots on a regular session chart. It is not designed to display RTH pivots on a full session chart. When pivots are calculated from daily bars, they are typically calculated from the full session high, the full session low and the settlement price. However, the daily data only depends on the data supplier and will reflect the high, low and close as shown on a daily chart.

Workaround for displaying RTH pivots on a full session chart:

- Add a secondary bar series to your primary price panel with a RTH trading hours template.
- Set the colors for candle outlines, candle wicks, up and down bars to transparent.
- Apply the amaPivotsDaily indicator to the secondary bar series.

The indicator will now display RTH pivots on a full session chart. However, the pivots will only be displayed after the start of the regular session.

Pivot range: The indicator is set to display the pivot range which is the range between CP and DP. The pivot range is a symmetrical range around the main pivot PP. A wide pivot range follows after a trending day with a close near the highs or the lows. A narrow pivot range indicates that the prior day was a balancing day and closed near the central pivot.

Prior day high, low and close: The indicator also displays the high, low and close for the prior trading day. These levels often act as support or resistance during the current trading day. Moreover, prior day high, low and close reflect the input data for calculating all pivot values and can be visually checked against the chart bars, while this is not possible for the pivots themselves.

Pivot formulas:

All options: H = prior day high, L = prior day low, C = prior day close, X = H - L
Main Pivot: P = (H+L+C)/3
Central Pivot: CP = (H+L)/2
Directional Pivot: DP = 2*P - CP
Floor Pivots: P = (H+L+C)/3, R1 = 2*P - L, S1 = 2*P - H, R2 = P + X, S2 = P - X, R3 = R1 + X, S3 = S1 - X, R4 = R3 + (P-L), S4 = S3 - (H-P)
Wide Pivots: P = (H+L+C)/3, R1 = 2*P - L, S1 = 2*P - H, R2 = P + X, S2 = P - X, R3 = R2 + X, S3 = S2 - X, R4 = R3 + X, S4 = S3 - X
Jackson Zones: R1 = P + 0.5*X, S1 = P - 0.5*X, RB1 = P + 0.618*X, SB1 = P - 0.618*X, R2 = P + X, S2 = P - X, RB2 = P + 1.382*X, SB2 = P - 1.382*X
Fibonacci Pivots: R1 = P + 0.382*X, S1 = P - 0.382*X, R2 = P + 0.618*X, S2 = P - 0.618*X, R3 = P + X, S3 = P - X, R4 = P + 1.382*X, S4 = P - 1.382*X

CME holidays: There are six holiday sessions every year which are integrated with the following trading day. These holidays are Martin Luther King Day, President's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day and Thanksgiving. The holiday sessions do not qualify as trade dates and there is no settlement. For this reason quality data feeds will not show daily bars. When "Input Data" is set to "DailyBars", the amaPivotsDaily will correctly calculate the pivots for both the holiday sessions and the trading day that follows the holiday. The NinjaTrader in-built pivots indicator will produce false values on the days after the holiday session. When "Input Data" is set to "Full Session", both indicators will calculate false values for the day after the holiday session.

Comparison to pivot indicators coded for NinjaTrader 7: For NinjaTrader 7 I had used subdivided session templates for calculating RTH pivots on full session charts. This approach was too complicated and mainly confused users. Subdivided session templates also truncate all bars at the session begin and the session end, which in turn distorts other indicators such as moving averages or oscillators. Therefore all our NT8 indicators are now compatible with the default trading hours template <instrument settings>. However, the new approach makes the task of coding RTH pivots for full session charts more complex. Such an indicator needs to add a third bar series with minute data and also come with a small data base containing the regular trading hours and holidays for the most liquid futures contracts. This can no longer be provided free of charge.

On the other hand the pivot indicators for NinjaTrader 8 have become more reliable. Preloading of daily data is no longer necessary, as the pivots indicator will load daily data automatically, when applied to a chart. This makes the pivots easier to use and less error prone.

Update version 2.1.: Bug removed. Indicator did not display pivots calculated from daily data, when the first day of the lookback period of the chart was a trading day without daily settlement (see six holiday sessions listed above).
Update version 2.6.: Enhanced CPU efficiency. Minor changes.

ADXVMA (amaADXVMA)

Version 1.1 August 1, 2017

The Average Directional Index Variable Moving Average (ADXVMA) is a volatiltiy based moving average with the volatility being determined by the value of the ADX. The ADX provides levels of support during uptrends and resistance during downtrends. The indicator may also be used as a trendfilter. The trend can be positive, negative or neutral.

The ADXVMA that can be downloaded here may also be used with other input series than price. The trend can be shown via paint bars and is exposed as a public property.

Note: The ADXVMA has the trend exposed as a public property. This property can be accessed programmatically. However, it cannot be currently accessed via the market analyzer. In order to access the Trend series via the market analyzer, a specific MarketAnalyzerColumn is required. The MarketAnalyzerColumn is not yet included with the install file, as it has led to freezes with NT 8.0.8.0. The bug has been confirmed by NinjaTrader developers and only fixed with the latest release NT 8.0.9.0. (issue #12054). The market analyzer column and sound files for the ADXVMA will be availabe with a future update.

SuperTrend U11 (amaSuperTrendU11)

Version 2.3*) November 16, 2017

The SuperTrend indicator is an application of the concept of MAE (maximum adverse excursion), which was introduced by John Sweeney in the mid-nineties. It is a Stop-And-Reverse (SAR) indicator based on breakouts from a modified Keltner channel.

The SuperTrendU11 is an enhanced version of the original SuperTrend indicator that comes with the following modifications:

- You may select between 36 different moving averages for the baseline.
- The baseline is calculated one bar ago to avoid recalculating with each incoming tick.
- You may select from 4 different volatility measures - average true range, average range, residual mean absolute deviation and residual root mean square deviation
- Average true range and average range can be calculated from 30 different moving averages.
- All volatility measures are also calculated one bar ago.

In fact there is no point in moving a trailing stop towards the current price intra-bar. Therefore a trailing stop should always be calculated from the prior bar and not the last price.

When you import the install file to NinjaTrader, it will also install the following moving averages:

- Moving Median
- Moving Median TPO
- Moving Median VWTPO
- Moving Mean TPO
- Moving Mean VWTPO
- Adaptive Laguerre Filter
- ADXVMA
- Butterworth Filter
- Distant Coefficient Filter
- Double Weighted Moving Average (DWMA)
- Exponential Hull Moving Average (EHMA)
- Gaussian Filter
- Holt EMA
- Laguerre Filter
- Range Weighted Moving Average
- SuperSmoother
- Sine Weighted Moving Average
- Tillson T3
- Triple Weighted Moving Average (TWMA)
- ZerolagHATEMA
- ZerolagTEMA

It will also install debugged versions of MAX and MIN, as the in-built versions supplied with NT8 do not work correctly with Renko bars (RemoveLastBarSupported).

The SuperTrend U11 can be set to revert intra-bar or at the bar close. With default settings the stop line is only broken, when there is a bar close beyond the stop. The indicator further comes with paint bars and sound alerts.

The SuperTrend is a trend indicator, which can be used in various ways. It is best used as a trailing stop or as a trend filter. It can also be used as a stop-and-reverse indicator, but will only work as such in trending markets. Typically it will allow for profitable results while the market is trending and then give the money back in sideways markets.

Note: The SuperTrend U11 has the trend exposed as a public property. This property can be accessed programmatically. However, it cannot be currently accessed via the market analyzer. In order to access the Trend series via the market analyzer, a specific MarketAnalyzerColumn is required. The MarketAnalyzerColumn is not yet included with the install file, as it has led to freezes with NT 8.0.8.0. The bug has been confirmed by NinjaTrader developers and only fixed with the latest release NT 8.0.9.0. (issue #12054). The market analyzer column and sound files for the SuperTrend U11 will be available with a future update.

SuperSmoother Filter (amaSuperSmoother)

Version 1.0 March 12, 2017

These are the 2 pole and 3 pole Super Smoother Filters, which are derived from digital Butterworth Filters. They were first described by John F. Ehlers in his book "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures". I have ported them from Easy Language to NinjaTrader.

The chart shows that the 2 pole super smoother filter (firebrick) gives a better approximation for price while the 3 pole filter (blue) offers superior smoothing.

To emulate the original SuperSmoother presented by John F. Ehlers, please select the PriceType "Median" as Input Series.

Sine Weighted Moving Average (amaSWMA)

Version 1.0 September 1, 2017

The Sine Weighted Moving Average (SWMA) is a FIR filter that applies weights to each bar of the lookback period in the shape of the bulge in a sine curve from 0 to pi. As a consequence the middle prices of the lookback period have the greatest weight.

The sine weighted moving average is quite similar to a triangular moving average.

I have coded it because it comes as a default moving average with other software packages and has been requested by users.

The SuperTrendM11 is an enhanced version of the original SuperTrend indicator that comes with the following modifications:

- The moving average has been replaced with a more robust median.
- The median is calculated one bar ago to avoid recalculating with each incoming tick.
- The average true range (ATR) is calculated one bar ago to avoid recalculating with each incoming tick.

Moving Median (amaMovingMedian)

Version 2.0 October 15, 2017

The Moving Median is a central tendency which is calculated over a sliding window of price bars or indicator values. The median is the numeric value separating the higher from the lower half of the data set built from the input series over the selected window.

The moving median is a non-linear FIR (finite impulse response) filter that can be used like a moving average. Compared to all standard moving averages, it is a more robust central tendency, because it is less sensitive to outliers.

The moving median over a lookback period N is calculated by writing the last N values of the input series to an array, sorting the array and selecting the middle value of that array.

Range Weighted Moving Average (amaRWMA)

Version 1.0 March 12, 2017

The Range Weighted Moving Average (RWMA) is weighted moving average which uses the square of the range of the bar as weighting factor. The exact formula for the weighting factor has the bar range replaced with the number of tick levels covered by the bar.

Volatility is driven by volume and is approximately proportional to the square root of volume. Therefore it is possible to use the squared range as a proxy for volume. This is interesting when genuine volume figures are not available. This would be the case

- for FOREX data that comes without historical backfill for volume
- for instruments that are driven by other markets outside of the regular session

In these cases the VWMA may be distorted, whereas the RWMA will still return proper results.

The Opening Range is the range obtained from the highest and lowest price of a security during the first minutes of daily trading activity. For example the opening range can be calculated from the first 5, 15 or 30 minutes.

The opening period can be selected via the time zone, the start time and the end time of the opening period. For example if you wish to display a 30-minute opening range for ES, you would select Exchange_Time or US_Central_Standard_Time, a start time of 8:30 AM and an end time of 9:00 AM. The indicator will then display the regular open and the opening range high, low and midline.

You may also use this indicator to display the pre-session range. It is possible to display the entire pre-session range that covers the period from the start of the trading day until the regular open, or you may select a custom period for the pre-session.

The indicator will only return an accurate opening range, if it is calculated from minute bars that align to the start time and end time of the selected opening period. For example, if you wish to display an accurate 30-minute opening range for ES, you may only apply the indicator to 1-min, 2-min, 3-min, 5-min, 10-min, 15-min or 30-min bars. When selecting other bar periods or bar types, there will be overlapping bars in the beginning and the end of the opening period. This may result in a slightly inaccurate opening range.

If you wish to display a correct opening range on any bar type, please proceed as follows:

- Add a secondary bar series of 1-min*) bar to your primary price panel.
- Set the colors for candle outllines, candle wicks, up and down bars to transparent.
- Apply the indicator to the secondary 1-minute bars for an exact calculation.

*) When you add a minute bar series to a tick or volume chart, this will slightly distort the chart, as the bar spacing is adjusted to the duration of the bars. As a consequence of the law of large numbers, the distortion will be smaller, if you add a secondary bar series with a lower resolution. It is therefore recommended to use the highest bar period available that aligns to the start time and end time of the opening period. For a 30-min opening period for ES, you may therefore add 30-min bars instead of 1-min bars.

The chart attached shows the 30-min opening range on a 1000-tick chart to ES 12-17. The invisible secondary bars that were added are 30-min bars.

Update January 31, 2018: Version 2.1 did not properly calculate the opening range when the first bar of the opening range had a time stamp greater than the end time of the opening period (display of short period opening ranges on higher timeframe charts). Version 2.2 has the bug removed.

Adaptive Laguerre Filter (amaAdaptiveLaguerreFilter)

Version 1.1 August 1, 2017

This is a four element Adaptive Laguerre Filter as described by John Ehlers in his paper "Time Warp - Without Space Travel".

The Laguerre Filter is a smoothing filter based on Laguerre polynomials. Its first term is an EMA, which is then further smoothened with a damping factor. The damping factor may take any value between 0 and 1. When the damping factor is set to 0, the Laguerre Filter becomes a finite impulse response (FIR) filter. When the damping factor is set to a value close to 1, the filter becomes dramatically smoother, but will have a significant lag.

The Adaptive Laguerre Filter is based on the simple Laguerre Filter, but uses a variable damping factor. The damping factor is adjusted such that low frequency components are delayed more than high frequency components. The resulting filter is an adaptive moving average and can be compared to the Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) or the Variable Index Dynamic Average (VIDYA).

Laguerre Filter (amaLaguerreFilter)

Version 1.0 March 6, 2017

This is a four element Laguerre Filter as described by John Ehlers in his paper "Time Warp - Without Space Travel".

The Laguerre Filter is a smoothing filter based on Laguerre polynomials. Its first term is an EMA, which is then further smoothened with a damping factor. The damping factor may take any value between 0 and 1. When the damping factor is set to 0, the Laguerre Filter becomes a finite impulse response (FIR) filter. When the damping factor is set to a value close to 1, the filter becomes dramatically smoother, but will have a significant lag.

The indicator that can be downloaded here is a four element Laguerre Filter. I have replaced the damping factor with a synthetic lookback period which allows for adjusting smoothness and lag. A lookback period of 1 corresponds to a simple 4-period triangular moving average.

LaguerreFilter(1) = TMA(4)

When the synthetic lookback period is increased, the filter becomes smoother but has a slower response to price changes.

MurreyMath Lines for NT8

MMv1.5.1 from NT7 Converted to NT8 as a paid job, a friend and I had this done by member Sagor here and he was great to work with.

A few small additions such as the ability to change the frame period/lookback added. Uploaded here with thanks for all others' hard work on indicators and conversions provided - Japhro and Scotty

Traders Dynamic Index (amaTradersDynamicIndex)

Version 1.2 September 16, 2017

The Traders Dynamic Index (TDI) is a trend following momentum indicator based on the RSI. It was developed and presented by Dean Malone. The Traders Dynamic Index comes with the following plots

- the Priceline, which is a SMA(2) of RSI(13)
- the Signalline, which is a SMA(7) of RSI (13)
- the Midband, which is a SMA(34) of RSI (13)
- Bollinger Bands around the SMA(34) using a standard deviation multiplier of 1.62

The following combinations may be considered as trade rules:

- go long, if Priceline > 50
- go short if Priceline < 50
- consider an exit, if Priceline is above 68 or below 32

- go long if Priceline > Signalline
- go short if Priceline < Signalline
- exit if Priceline crosses Signalline

- trendfilter long, when Priceline > Midband
- trendfilter short, when Priceline < Midband

- add to long, when Priceline > upper Bollinger Band
- add to short, when Priceline < lower Bollinger Band

Detailed rules how to use the Traders Dynamic Index have been published by Dean Malone within the framework of the E.A.S.Y. trading method.

Gaussian Filter (amaGaussianFilter)

Version 1.1 September 5, 2017

Gaussian Filter as described by John Ehlers in his paper "Gaussian and Other Low Lag Filters".

https://www.mesasoftware.com/papers/GaussianFilters.pdf

You may set the number of poles in the filter to 1,2,3 or 4. A 1-pole filter will have a better approximation to price, whereas the 4-pole filter has superior smoothing.

To emulate the original Gaussian filter presented by John F. Ehlers, please select the PriceType "Median" as Input Series.
