I am very new and been searching for an indicator for Ninja that will let me colour/highlight certain areas of my chart - eg/ colour between 12-2pm as red etc. I thought that Ninja would let me do this within properties but seems not.
I have been through the indicator section but cannot seem to find anything? Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Nick
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Remember that anytime you try something like that on non time based charts it will be inaccurate. Example: If you have a 2000 tick chart and the color is supposed to change at 12:00 noon till 1:00PM (lunch maybe) and the 11:58 AM candle does not close till 12:04 PM, you will not get a color change till 12:04 PM. Just a heads up. You might only want to use an indicator like this on a time chart with intervals set to be able to land right on your desired color change times.
Is there a way that you could code this indicator to be able to choose the color for both no trade times (red) and trade times(green or blue) ? I was thinking of using this in a separate panel.
Does anyone have this indicator for Ninja 7 built so it can be downloaded? Couldn't find it in the fileshare and I'm not capable of making a new indicator using the parameters suggested on this thread.
Thanks!

Look for the indicator "Colored Time Zones" on this page. Works on 6.5 and 7.
I'm having a problem testing the following:
if (ToTime(Time[0]) <= 80000 || ToTime(Time[0]) >= 134500){ return;}.
I'm in backtest101. Is it true that you can only test ToTime
in real time instead of backtesting. I should be getting zero data in my
Strategy Analyzer. Instead it's like the ToTime didn't work. In my test data
it says I have a profit when I shouldn't have any profit because the computer
time is 205400 which is greater than the 134500 end time. The system should
not give me any profit. But it's as though the ToTime didn't work. Maybe I
have to test this in sym. Any opinions would be welcome.
Your problem is somewhere else, not in this "if ...", which is correct.
Maybe you are entering only in this time windows, but never check the time for the exits ?
