I have found an open sourced indicator (if you want to call it that) on ForexFactory that I would like to get programmed for Ninjatrader 8. It is a simple Fibonacci indicator that displays 3 different types of Lines. One is displayed for the prior DAY. One is displayed for the prior WEEK and One is displayed for the prior MONTH. I have included some screenshots from MT4. I would like to have the indicator use the New York open (GMT-5) as the Session start for everything. I would also like to have 3 Tabs on the upper left corner of the chart to toggle in between the 3 types (Day, Week, Month). Also, I would like the option of changing the colors of the lines and changing the different Fibonacci numbers to different names if I choose. And of course this should be able to work on all Forex, Stock and Futures contracts. Don't know if that is an issue or not. If you are interested please reach out and I will email you the MQL code. I look forward to hearing from you.

I found that after 158 views of my request to have an indicator programmed not one response for a paying gig on this thread. Luckily, I found Upwork and put a request in...hired a programmer that same day and 4 days later had a working indicator exactly as I wanted and paid him for his services. I have to wonder how many people that actually post a paying gig in this thread ever get their indicator built at all? I think the NO replies on this thread should be reversed and perhaps have programmers set up a details page on what skill level, platforms and Languages they are proficient in programming in. Just my 2 cents!
