one question about the highlighted cells (ua and poc). you can still select the color, but not the dash style, plot width etc. should we be using the "levels" indicator to do that? (using nt8)
thanks again!!
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Yes I rebuilt all the setting screens for Sierra and those 2 were kind of in my way ; I thought they might not be the most modified of settings so I removed the pen choice.
Trading: 6C (Low Margin,) 6E, CL, GC, ES and Maybe DX for smaller tick value

@gomi, Know this is probably asking a lot but any chance you could also provide an example of using the indicator(s) in NT8 Strategy Builder? It is unlikely you have ever looked at it so it is very understandable if the answer is "PAS."
* added a "BarsAgo" data series for all levels in GomOrderFlowProLevels, so in a strategy you can use "Fade a Naked POC if it's more than 5 bars old"
* added "IsSupportZoneOnHigh" and "IsResistanceZoneOnLow" levels
* changed the bars to use the "virtual" Open and Close as defined by some bar types (eg PnF)
Bug correction
* corrected a problem on the recorder that would prevent recording when reloading historical data
* corrected an issue on GomMP where on 64bits plateforms the mouse would sometimes not create a custom profile.
Strategies
I'm including 2 strategies working on NT7 and NT8.
*GomOFDeltaSampleStrat that goes long or short if delta > value or delta < -value
*GomOFNakedPOCSampleStrat that fades naked POCs older than 5 bars old on the long side (can't do long and short limit orders in the same strat)
The strategies are for advanced users only and must be downloaded sepratly and installed in NT's Strategy folder.
NB : On NT7 the strategy is set to use UpDownTick as delta mode.
I would like to suggest some functions (easy to implement) for GOFP
1.- Add DeltaHistogram Color Style for Cell Fill.
In "Cell Fill" section for "Color Style" add a DeltaHistogram option. I would like to see just delta Histogram, with VolumeDelta option is partially solved, but does not allow me to spot in a clear manner how significant the delta is.
Actually all the Sierra work I do is C# too, I'm not as productive in C++ as I am in C#, I use a lot of C# high level objets, Dictionaries, SortedDictionaries, Linq, Events, async etc..
So to make the indicators I build work on NT7, NT8, and Sierra, here is what I did:
Create a common interface IEngine that abstracts trading platform runtime, it contains stuff like GetInstrName(), GetFirstPaintedBar(), PlaySound(), IsHistorical() etc...
Create a interface IGraph that abstracts the graphical routines, it contains stuff like DrawRectangle(), DrawLine().
Then for each platform I built a IEngine class, so I have one for NT7, one for NT8, and one for Sierra.
I also created an IGraph for each graphical subsystem, so I have one for GDI (NT7 & Sierra) and one for Direct2D(NT8)
All of this required some plumbing :-)
But in the end, in my indicator , I can write
if (engine.GetOpen(0)>10) then graph.DrawRectangle(...) , and it will compile and run on the 3 platforms.
So basically, in Sierra, the only thing I do is call C# code
