Here it is, my first indicator.
This indicator looks for levels where price has 'bounced' off of before. It then filters these levels by several user-controlled settings and groups nearby levels together to create SR zones (known as Groups in the parameters), and displays a rectangle to represent the SR zone. A single line within each SR zone represents the average price of the levels within.
By default the indicator looks at as much history as possible, so you will want to adjust the settings of your mt4 to hold as much historical data as possible.
You could also use this indicator with less history, to locate only levels where price has reacted recently.
Keep in mind that on charts without much history to the left, such as when price is breaking new ground, there will be fewer lines than on charts where price is revisiting areas recently traded.
This is a very interesting indicator that shows historical volatility for the current time fo day, averaged over a selected number of previous days. It tracks surprisingly well with ADX, except that it actually leads ADX in many cases. The screenshot shows how the two compare.
This could be very useful in strategies because you could actually look forward and see the expected volatility ahead of time.
A nice future addition to this indicator would be an option to shift it forward a few bars, so you could be aware of the predicted volatility before it gets there.

The attached file is a new chart style for NinjaTrader 7 that adds High, Low, Close (HLC) bars, which are popular for Volume Spread Analysis (VSA).
There are indicators for NT that can be used to simulate HLC bars, but these are not coloured by paint bar indicators, which are designed to colour bars and not other indicators.
This chart style will be coloured by paint bar studies, because it creates a new bar style.
The first version of the chart style is described here and that page has tips on programming and installing the chart style.
Installation
Download HlcChartStyle.zip, then follow the usual import procedure. File, Utilites, Import NinjaScript. Then restart NT.
The screen shot shows HLC bars coloured by Better ProAm from Emini-Watch.

Hello Traders, the is an NT8 indicator(exported from 8.0.7.0) that is a colored HMA. The HMA can be calculated from any chart type and period (Multi Time Frame). In the picture is a 15M CL chart. It has two instances of this indie. One is an HMA21 calculated from a 10 min chart and the second is a HMA21 calculated from a 10Range. The indie title displayed on the chart shows the type and period info, as does the title in the user configuration panel. The HMA is completely configurable for color, drawing type HMA Period, Chart Type and Chart Period. There is a label in the right margin of the chart that identifies the indicator. Depending on the timeframes of the chart vs the HMA, you may need to enable Tick Replay in the Data Series. Let me know what you think!

Hello Traders...
This is another adaptation of the HMA. Big Mike built a similar indie years ago for NT7 and it was based on the EMA. I like the HMA because it hugs price better and changes direction sooner. This indie paints 2 HMAs that trail the primary HMA by x candles. This HMA can be smoothed by an EMA of 1 or greater periods. In addition you can color the background based on the slope of the HMA. As with many of my recent indicators, they only calculate what is on the screen. The indie will not show if you scroll back until you hit F5 to recalculate. There is a button on the axis to hide the indicator, so you can bring it into view, evaluate and hide it to declutter your chart. You can add a few characters to the button to differentiate from other indicator buttons.
In the pic is an HMA34, Smoothed by 2 and with the wave 3 bars back.
Trade Well
Bob
r1 (1/23/2021) Max Value for Smooth and HMAback were limited to 100, now open.
r2 (2/11/2021): I don't use Bloodhound or other automated tools, but one user found that this indie does not work with Bloodhound. I found that the problem is with the calculations limited to what is on screen... I found the issue and it is an easy fix. In the zip are two indicators. HMAwaveSmooth is the original that only calculates what is on the screen and HMAwaveSmoothFull calculates the entire history and works with Bloodhound. I will add a new version of all of the indicators that I have posted that have the calculation limiter in a similar manner.
r3 (7/8/2021): changed the description of "Smooth" in the user panel to "Smooth(EMA)" as this is actually the EMA of the HMAwave. By minimizing the HMA, the wave becomes an EMA wave. The HMA can only be set to a minimum of 2, as it is limited by the NT8 HMA function. Both the original and the "Full" version are in the zip.
final rev?: An FIO trader contacted me to add arrows to the swings. In this rev, I added the arrows and also added a filter which is another (larger) HMA. I also added Sound. The filter does not plot, so if you want to see it, you can add another HMA indie. In the pic is a GC 10R chart with the HMAwave set to Period 21 and the filter HMA set to 144. You can disable the Filter and the Sound.
April 2nd, 2018 07:23 PM Trailer Guy Thank-you! I use DI system as a trend filter. Not something you want to take the time to read on one minute charts when
the futures are moving! Your histogram on top of the DI is a really great solution. I get what I need with a glance, but
can still read the details if I wish to. I think this is a better solution than the background color change version I w
as using with NT 7. Thanks again.

March 12th, 2023 09:23 PM riskybiz Is there any way to block the 2 ema's? I even tried to color them the same as the background and it didn't work... Thank

March 9th, 2021 01:08 PM bobc635 Hi Larry... You can open the code using the NT editor, or a Note pad or Word or many other applications.... Double click
on the cs file and your PC should give you some options, or Open the NT editor from the Control Panel>New....
