I found this somewhere on the F.IO or NT forums and someone helped me convert it to NT8. You can set the start times and end times of the opening range and save them. Okay I received some comments about this indicator so I thought I would share them. I was told it is not always precise when plotting on a tick or volume chart. It may be because the begin / end time is not exactly at the open or the close of the bar. It works fine on minute charts. It may not work well for timeframes higher than 30 minutes. I am not a coder, but the author of this indicator is here: https://x.com/bearishtrader and http://bearishtrader.blogspot.com/

This is an upgrade from the original BTOpeningRange indicator by Jason Chan (bearishtrader).
The v1 indicator didn't print the open price, only the High/Low range. The open price plot is now available.
Also, you can configure when to stop the plot. By default, the plot will stop when the regular session ends.
The plots, colors and times are all configurable in the properties screen.
I searched high and low for a free, simple indicator with the open range and price. Hopefully this will be useful for anyone looking for the same thing

These are the 2 pole and 3 pole Butterworth Filters, which were described by John F. Ehlers in his book "Cybernetic Analysis for Stocks and Futures". Ported from Easy Language to NinjaTrader.
The chart shows that the 2 pole filter (red) gives a better approximation for price, while the 3 pole filter (blue) offers superior smoothing.
A real time only version of this indicator was posted on the Ninjatrader forums by Dave S. in February. Naturally I couldn't resist the temptation to make it work with the GomRecorder.
The bars are colored blue for positive deltas and red for negative deltas. The saturation is proportional to the ratio of delta to total volume. Lighter color bars have lower deltas, and white bars have deltas near zero.
The trades that are counted can be filtered by the Minimum and Maximum Trade Size settings.
It seems to work well on Renko charts, where you can see the balance of power shift at congested areas that become reversals.
Revised May 25 2011: This is an updated G40 version. The installation package includes the GomRecorder and related files from latest Gom Package version 2.3b.
Revised at 4:50 PM ET on May 27: Added user selectable values for the fast and slow smoothing parameters of the Tick Volume Index, and changed the default values that previously had been hard coded.
We've come a long way since version G35. This one includes bar by bar values of Delta, Delta Momentum, and the Tick Volume Index. There were some optimizations to make it run a little faster, but it was still relatively slow to load.
On Tuesday May 26 I did some further code optimization and it now loads much faster. If you downloaded prior to around 7PM ET on that date, you should download and install the updated version posted at that time.
This version functionally replaces the previous version(s) described and available here but does not replace it when this version is installed. The previous version can be removed manually when and if desired.
Enhancements/Changes in Version 2
1. User can select from several MA types for the Moving Average plots, some of which are from Lizard Indicators made available by the GNU license. Credits to Lizard Indicators for both their indicators and the MA selection code.
2. When MA smoothing is selected the type can be an SMA, EMA, or the selected MA type. The smoothing period for each MA (fast, mid, and slow) can be set individually. A MA period of 0 eliminates the smoothing for that MA. Note: The Mid MA can be used as an intermediate period by specifying a value between the fast and slow periods. When the mid MA is requested with zero value for the period (default) will result in the mid period being calculated. If a period is specified and it is not between the fast and the slow the midpoint is calculated and used. No warning message is displayed.
3. The ability to apply volume filters (1-4) against the Net volume thereby limiting the Net volume histogram display a net bar only for the volume specified in the filter(s).
4. More control over how plots are displayed.
5. The divergence marker has been moved from the Total histogram to the Net histogram. This was done because the Total histogram can be turned off. The Net and/or Net filters must be active for the divergence marker to be displayed. If the Filter option is chosen without the Net plots being display the marker will only be display when there is a divergence on a filter value.|
6. The plot for the in-progress bar has its own color and can be user set. This plot is always displayed regardless of the display option selected.
7. This is not a change but a clarification as it also existed in the previous version. The position of the total line (above the line if a buy total and below the line if a sell total) is not based upon the last Close price but on the value (positive or negative) of the Net volume.
Similar to the previous version at times setting the Indicators region Type property to Logarithm is easier to read. The 2 instances of the indicator in the screen shot have the same operation modes set but the bottom one shows some of the ability to control what is displayed. without needing to independently setting each to transparent. If a particular display is turned off the values are still calculated and can be viewed in the Data Box.

Date Description
April 12, 2019........Initial release
Notice: This indicator has been deprecated and will no longer supported as it has been replaced by Version 2 posted here
Updated Version 1.21 March 12, 2019

Version 1.21 Corrections are described in Change Log
Previous Version 1.1 March 5, 2019
Exported with NT Version 8.0.17.1 (note this has been changed)
Notice(posted on 2/10/2019 at 1:45 PM MST)
It appears that something has changed in the latest NT update (8.0.17.1) that effected this indicator. The version here has been recompiled and re-exported using the latest release. No code changes were made. The version date (2/10/2019) and number (1.01) in the indicator parameters section reflect this change. If you have updated to the latest NT version and are having a problem or getting error messages either recompile the indicator or download and install the latest version.
I apologize for any confusion.
Summary
This indicator is an enhanced version of the NT8 BuySellVolume indicator. The enhancements are as follows:
1. Buys and Sells are show above and below the zero line,
2. The Net Volume (Buys-Sells) is plotted accordingly,
3. Total volume is displayed using a separate color and is shown accordingly,
4. A divergence marker (Bar close is opposite the Net Volume) can be indicated (not enabled by default),
5. Tick Replay (TR) is supported and defaults to display a different color for the TR Net Volume bars,
6. The width of the Buy/Sell, total, and Net histogram bars can be set individually, and
7. Option to reverse the Histogram Buy/Sell and Net widths so that the Net bar displays on the inside of the Buys/Sell bar.
Notes:
At times the Net volume is so small it can not be seen with the indicator region parameter set in Linear Mode. This can be rectified by setting it to Log mode as shown in the screenshot.
When changing the histogram bar sizes use odd numbers as the bars are painted from the midpoints.
For a divergence to be detected in addition to the Net number and bar direction being opposite it must pass a percentage check. If too many (too few) divergences are detected the percentage can be changed to reduce (increase) the number detected.
When using the Tick Replay with a large number of historical days (Days to Load) there may be a delay in the time it takes to initialize.
The indicator is installed in a folder named “Cheech”.
Version 1.1 Enhancements
Fast and Slow EMA of Net Buy and Sells with optional midrange which when set the period is the midpoint of the Fast/Slow period settings.
User defined volume offset from Zero line will create a Zero Zone with optional region painting.
Reorganized Indicator Parameters.
Version 1.1 Notes:
If EMAs are too close together set the indicator panel properties Type Parameter to Logarithmic
NT will display the upper and lower boundary lines (the zero zone) under the following conditions; 1. tick replay is enabled, 2. real time data is available (data feed is connected and market is opened), or, 3. the Zero Zone region painting is enabled. When any of the aforementioned are satisfied the lines will appear.
Version 1.21 Notes:
1. The labels of the MA plots were mis-labled as SMAs when they are actually EMAs.
Please PM me with either problems or questions instead of using the comments/rating section.

This indicator is a real-time indicator and does not plot against historical data. A histogram splitting volume between trades at higher or equal to the high of the last bar or lower or equal to the low of the last bar is plotted.
It is currently executed using Chart Trader under the Advanced Trade Management system on Ninja Trader. The goal is to write a strategy using these indicators and back test it. The one think I do not know how to do is how to pass the 2 variables generated by this indicator to a strategy.
COMPATIBILITY:
NinjaTrader 6.5: YES
NinjaTrader 7.0: YES (tested by sam028)

January 6th, 2011 11:54 PM masaleem1 Hi my name is saleem and I am a novice trader was taking a look at your volume plot
it looks very interesting so I just wonted to know why you came up with the this plot and
how the underling logic of the plot works. Well I am sure you are very busy and don't feel
you have to rush to reply back
well great work
April 15th, 2010 08:44 AM greathopes Very interesting looking. Can't wait to see it in realtime.
October 18th, 2018 11:53 AM marcelo203 Thanks very good indicator.
December 29th, 2014 11:48 AM jlmurcia Thanks for this visual indicator, particularly helpful to spot price reversals in support/resistance areas.
August 25th, 2014 11:48 AM OpalDragon pretty awesome Zondor -- but I think we can make it better if we combine this with other studies or systems!
Great Work Zondor. <<< Wanted to edit my original comment because it could be misconstrued >>> These bars/modifications
are freakin awesome..
April 18th, 2012 01:44 PM sigmatrader Does the Trade Size filter work on this code? I've tried changing the Maximum Trade Size and Minimum Trade Size and see
no difference in the color bars. I understand that the code is based on the delta_ratio of (buyvolume-sellvolume)/(buy
volume+sellvolume). I've formatted the dataseries with black up bars and black downbars and then applied theBuy/Sell co
lor Bars indicator with the defaults of max size 1000 and min size 1. Then I tried increasing min size from 1 up to 100
0 and did not see any changes in the color bar shading. I also tried leaving the min size at 1 and decreasing the max s
ize from 1000 down to 1 and again no change in the color bar shading. Any ideas?
