The indicator plots supply and demand based zones from various time frames on the chart. It also adds a context menu item to the default Ninjatrader context menu to hide and show active and broken zones.
The indicator displays the Volume Weighted Average Price of the selected session. It can be used on all types of charts.
You can apply the indicators to charts with several intraday sessions. You can then select via indicator panel, for which session the VWAP shall be shown.
ETH session: The VWAP will be calculated for the full session, if ETH is selected via indicator dialogue.
RTH session: It is possible to display the VWAP for the RTH session or the night session. Set indicator to RTH and select the number of the session, for example "First" for the night session and "Second" for the RTH session.
RTH multi: The VWAP will be displayed starting from the open of the RTH session as specified and then continue through the after session.
Volatility Bands: The indicators has three different modes to calculate volatility bands. For each of the modes multipliers can be selected.
Variance_Price: The variance is calculated from the selected input values of the price bars and the last known value for the VWAP within the current session. This way of calculating the bands is similar to calculating Bollinger Bands with a variable period starting with the first bar of the session.
Variance_Distance: The variance is calculated from the selected input values of the price bars and the value for the VWAP corresponding to price. It is a variance of the vertical distance of price from VWAP. This method corrects for a trend and produces slightly narrower bands on a trending day.
Session_Range: The quarter range of the current session is used as a measure of volatility instead of the standard deviation.
Public Holidays: For Globex instruments the indicator will display the ETH VWAP for the two-day-session including a public holiday. The indicator is preconfigured for the Globex holiday calendar.
Colors: Different colors can be selected for rising and falling VWAP. Also colors and opacities can be selected for the areas between the inner bands, middle bands and outer bands.
Update Jan 23, 2011: Globex holiday calendar for 2011 added. Holiday sessions will only be applied to Globex instruments. Indicators now also work on tick and volume charts.
Update May 17, 2011: New signature for GetNextBeginEnd() implemented.
Update June 15, 2011: VWAP can now be displayed for RTH and after-session, see option RTH-multi. Three different types of VWAP bands added.
Update July 26, 2011: SessionVWAP uses (high + low + open + close) / 4 for higher accuracy. Adapted to different plot styles.
Update January 25, 2012: Globex holiday calendar for 2012 added. Small bug removed, which had affected the plot colors.
Update February 23, 2013: Plot recoded & CPU efficiency improved, Globex holiday calendar for 2013 added.
Update March 30, 2013: Algorithm improved for both speed and accuracy. VWAP start time can be selected.
Update April 11, 2013: Plot modified for compatibility with charts built from multiple bar series.
Update May 10, 2013: Bug removed, which led to occasional false identification of the RTH session on charts built from ticks.
Update December 9, 2013: Holiday calendar added for 2014.
Update December 28, 2014: Holiday calendar added for 2015. Price markers improved for US interest rate futures.
The Session Pivots Weekly 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 reflecta 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 week with a close near the highs or the lows. A narrow pivot range indicates that the prior week was a balancing week and closed near the central pivot.
Prior week high, low and close: The indicator also displays the high, low and close for the prior trading week. These levels often act as support or resistance during the current trading week. Moreover, prior week 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 week high, L = prior week low, C = prior week 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.
Nota: The forum software has renamed the downloadable zip file to the false version number 2.0. Please disregard the version number of the zip file. The zip file contains the indicator version as specified above.
