You might send an email to [email protected]. He is very talented and assists users with Thinkscript issues.
However, if he's not already familiar with UniRenko, you might have a tough job ahead providing him the detailed specifications.
FWIW, I spent quite a bit of effort a few years back trying to convert NinjaTrader studies and strategies into ToS. I finally concluded that ToS was just not well-suited to futures trading, and moved that portion of my trading to NinjaScript. It's been a much more fruitful process. The support I found on futures.io continues to assist me greatly in that transition. I have not found more than a small handful of traders who are happy trading futures on ToS.
I looked at the screenshot you were referring to. The indicator you are asking about was one of the ones here in the Elite section of futures.io simply called "Ribbon"?
It basically looks at 4 different EMA's and shows a confirming block color to let you know if they are all rising or all falling,
I added a few changes to the one found here including a 5th row of blocks, additionally I added a boolean +1, 0 -1 signal to show "Bullish, Neutral, Bearish" when used in the Market Analyzer or if used as a Trend Bias for a strategy.
Overall I do find it helpful.
Hope that helps

I would like to trade this on Thinkorswim for swing trading stocks and just use Ninja for my futures. I have a TOS Thinkscripter but need to provide enough info to give them an opportunity to possibly code. Is there any detail you can provide that would be helpful and I can pass on?

I have created a NT7 NinjaScript Strategy that places a marker above my UniRenko bars when a certain condition is met - the condition being two consecutive bars in an uptrend must have a wick sloping upwards by one tick. The reverse is true for downtrend.
Being relatively new with NinjaScript I have gone via the wizard and these are the conditions
Set 1: up bars
The first two conditions ensure that the bars have wicks by checking if the open is different from the low on both bars.
The next two conditions check if both are up bars
Set 2: down bars
These sets are just the opposite of Set 1 for down bars
The result required is that a diamond marker is printed on the second bar if the first and second bars have wicks that differ by 1 tick up or down according to trend direction.
As you can see from the screenshots below, the conditions appear to work in most cases. However there are a few instances where they do not work (last screenshot)
In the screenshot above all the markers show up as expected
In this screenshot a marker (where the red and green arrows point) is missing.
It appears to me that the two bars that don't work in the screenshot have all the elements of the conditions (two down bars, two wicks, High on first bar is 49.06 and High on second bar is 49.05) and therefore should have a marker, but it does not show up.
I looked up this thread for specific issues or comments about wicks or tails but I didn't find anything that was relevant.
Have I created the conditions incorrectly, or do you reckon it's something else?
