This is the latest iteration of my NinjaTrader 8 Bar Timer Indicator.
Please see BarTimerHybridv10 for improvements - it won't let me upload the file here
IMPERATIVE - REMOVE ANY PRIOR VERSIONS BEFORE INSTALLING.
v9.
This version adds 6 things
1. Amended the price Marker formatting so that it now flashes like everything else and lines up correctly.
2. The Flash and Sound Alert features have been upgraded significantly - with the use of Gradient Colors especially.
3. The addition of an Outline to the text which now adds another type of Alert Flashing
4. Changed the key code to move the indicator around the chart to the Right control key ONLY.
5. User can now see the price in the price marker if they select Counter only as the BarTimer
6. Added Settings confirmation message ( which can be toggled off)
Known issues
1. Will occasionally fail/give weird output if your computer clock gets out of sync ( about twice a year in my case) - please google how to sort this it's very simple.URL link is in the notes at the top of the code to fix this
2. Can run on BarClose BUT needs firsttickofbar to compute. If you use the Tick Or Volume counter it must run on each Tick , obviously!
Changes are
1. Tick,Volume,Time and Range based charts are now all catered for.
2. Can look at counter/timer as a numeric value or a % of time left/remaining.
3. User no longer needs to specify what kind of chart it is - code automatically picks it up
4. Can display a Clock in a different time zone to that of the user eg Eastern Standard Time in New York
5. Alert near the beginning of a new bar via sound or various "flashing" objects such as the whole panel.
6. User may rotate the indicator to 8 different points on the chart panel via a key combo.

with the advent of Ai those of us who have no idea how to code can start creating things that may or may not help us in trading. So i am starting to create some things that i am testing to see if they will help me visualize trading a little better. the first thing i am posting is something i am going to see if psychologically will help motivate me to act in my best interest...which i havent always done in trading.... so was reading up on impulse control for children...as sometimes when i am on fast charts my mind will drift and my fingers click without full acknowledgment of the other side of my brain :-)
so as i read about how they deal with this with children they had them use coloring sheets with a traffic light... and would teach them before each response they needed to take 5 seconds and go through RED stop Yellow Think Green Go.... when your thinking as a child you ask certain type questions ie will this hurt someone, will this benefit...will this help...etc... once they have the answer then they are to respond.
so i thought what if i do that for a trading chart lol.... so i created a traffic light.... with x amount of response time user selectable. to just think through each step of the trade before i pull the trigger... if i havent gotten to green then either the market is too fast for me to trade or its not my trade and shouldnt take it ... simple tool not sure if it will help but figured i would start posting different tools i create with Ai on this thread.

This is my take on the linear regression line. I think I've made it a bit more useful, but you will be the judge of that. The plotted object 'line' has three parts: the linear regression line, the warning tab, and the shadow.
The actual linear regression line fills the area between the shadow or outside boundary lines. The 'tab' (see arrows in picture) is the linear regression line, but it's painted to reflect that price is closing in the opposite direction of the linear regression. In effect, this gives a 'heads-up!' warning that price is weakening in its trajectory. As you see in the picture, the tab appears when price is no longer in agreement with the direction of the LinReg. The shadow is simply the outside border of the full line. Change the color and/or thickness of it to better see the line on light or dark charts.
The indicator will load with a relatively thick line, but everything is is adjustable. The period is set to 50, but I use 25 on my charts. Again, you'll decide how you want to use it.
As always, Mr. Phelps, should you or any of your team be caught or killed, the secretary will disavow any knowlege of your actions.

Please leave a comment. It's the only way I know if anyone finds this stuff useful. Thank you.
This one is a new oscillator written by AlexGrover at Alpaca markets and published Pine script and Python code for it. Here is a NT8 conversion of same indicator.
The Andean oscillator calculation is based on two steps:
Estimate price upper/lower extremities.
Determine the degree of variation of each extremity.
The Andean Oscillator can return multiple information to the user. Its core interpretation is given by the bull and bear components.
A rising bull component indicates the presence of bullish price variations while a rising bear component indicates the presence of bearish price variations.
When the bull component is over the bear component market is up-trending, and the user can expect new higher highs. When the bear component is over the bull component market is down-trending, and the user can expect new lower lows.
The signal line allows a more developed interpretation of the indicator and can be used in several ways.
It is possible to use it to filter out potential false signals given by the crosses between the bullish and bearish components. As such the user might want to enter a position once the bullish or bearish component crosses over the signal line instead.
Rules For Trend Trading
Users wanting to use the indicator to perform backtests or paper trading can use the following trading rules:
Long : bullish component cross over bearish component
Short : bearish component cross over bullish component
Exit Long : bullish component cross under signal line
Exit Short : bearish component cross under signal line
Exits rules are optional.
A filter for false signals can be introduced by using the following long/short conditions instead:
Long : bullish component cross over signal line once per detected trend
Short : bearish component cross over signal line once per detected trend
Note that while this might prevent trading certain false signals it will induce a worse timing compared to the first proposed long/short conditions.
This is my take on the Detrended Price Oscillator. I've added an ADX component to it which can highlight the bar-outline when the ADX is increasing. It also produces vertical signal lines as the DPO crosses the zero-line. It works on all types of charts, but minute and tick work especially well. bars are colorized depending on being above or below the zero line. There are continuation signals when the DPO quickly dips below (or above) the zero line and then returns to its original side.
It is fully property-controlled, but I must state that the 'guts' of the indicator, the numeric DPO/ADX parameters (DPO especially) should be left alone as they are time-tested values that were determined by folks much smarter then myself.
The picture is of the 500 Tick NQ with my dpQGP and dpDPO applied to it. You'll notice that the bright outline very often appears after breaking out of a congestion area or bar formation. You'll be surprised with how many ways you can use this.
As you experiment with many of the properties, you'll be able to fine-tune it to your style. But be wary of changing the 'Parameters' and 'Combo-Signals' sections.
If you find the the two 'warning track' lines, above and below the histogram in my picture, are sitting on the zero line on your chart, adjust the 'LineOffset' property to a value that approximates the highs and lows of the histogram. For a 1min CL, it might be .2, but for a 5min ES it might be 100, so play with it.
You can alter the bar-body outline by changing the color of the 'StrongUp' and 'StrongDown' properties. I like yellow on a black background or magenta on a white.
The dpXRAY, (very slick if I say so myself) was packaged together with the dpDPO by accident! Use it as an overy lay of a volume panel or ADX panel. You'll 'see' what price is doing internally, hence the 'xray' name.
As always, comment or concerns are always welcome. You can get me directly at [email protected].
Good trading!

This simple indie uses 'added data' in the code.. Just input the 'data series' you want to
study in relation to the 30min BB's and it will plot values (estimates) of where the 30 min
BB 'Upper' and 'Lower' will plot on the hour and half-hour that is coming up..
These bands will also show you the median value of the current 30minute study which I
find very useful to form a "bias"..
In general : if price is below the 'Lower' plotted 30min BB (30 min chart) AND below the
'Lower' (already plotted 'fulcrum') 10 min BollingerPro (10 min data on any tick or volume
series chart) then price is in oversold territory ... at least its below the number of SD's you're
studying AND what's projected..
**Important : This indicator will stop working on Rollover.. .. The 'added data' in the code
needs to be updated to the current Sept, Dec, Mar, June series AND underlying !.. i.e. if you
want to study ES, the code has to be changed to use ES as 'added data'.. It's very simple to
do - the 'added data' lines are 70 and 71.. (try changing them yourself - you'll feel like a coder)
Note: I've updated the code to a 'Source Code' version (I hope).. I also hope it works as a
version everyone can access and change as needed, as I had hoped to share originally..
** I'd like to include the link for a new 'source code' version of BollingerPro now 'BollingerProChof'
I wasn't aware I had uploaded a .dll version. I apologize and bear responsibility for what got
posted/shared.. …
I attached a couple more pics to explain 'Ellipse #'s 1 & 2' in the pic attached here..
I've penned specifics on data series and some tips you 'May' use.. "Only trade with money
you can afford to lose" haha - seriously I hope it all helps.. Chof
You will need to download all parts before extraction.
Dowload and unzip all files in NT 8 replay folder Documents\NinjaTrader 8\db\replay
Once an individual part has been downloaded it needs to be renamed according to the number in its sequence
For example, if you are downloading ES 06-21 part 4 of 11, once that file has finished downloaded, you need to rename it into "ES 06-21.7z.004"
Once all files have been downloaded and renamed, right-click on the first one and select "extract here"
Make sure to use the "Extract here" function as shown, and not the "Extract to" function, to avoid the creation of a folder within a folder
The archive will create a folder with the relevant front month and a series of .nrd files inside (one per day)
Note 1: the archive contains only the dates with the most volume for this contract, meaning, this is data relevant only to when the contract becomes the front month.
When attempting to extract multi-part downloads I've seen a few users being tripped up by the Windows option that hides file extensions for known file types.
Typically they would follow instructions, only to be met with extraction error messages.

re's a lot that this indicator offers. Thank you.
March 3rd, 2025 03:51 PM rickjames Muchas garcias, as we used to say in the Andes. Excellent trabajo!

January 27th, 2025 06:09 PM topdogtony This is an incredible indicator thanks
June 6th, 2025 02:10 AM Mindset Small bug - thanks Aligator.
Move IsOverlay = true and DrawOnPricePanel from Configure to SetDefault in OnStateChange. Then the bartimer will always
Plot in the price panel.
I will update in a few days .
May 23rd, 2025 05:33 PM aligator Thanks! The indicator plots in a different panel from the price panel. How to plot the timer/counter inside Price panel?
