Thanks, have you or anyone else tried the free one from Ninza.co? I saw the video on youtube and someone in the comments mentioned the settings are customizable so it's like unirenko.

[Free] ninZaRenko - Best Renko Bars (with Wicks) for NinjaTrader 8

ninza free bars are just as bad... I am using renko spectrum from innovative trading solutions, they work perfectly, but like everything ninjatrader, expensive...

Renko is Renko, it's all the same. They only differ in how they were coded. RJ's don't reprint, capture the tick and volume data accurately, and can be used with tick replay based indicators. They are professionally coded. I believe pure logik has a very good product as well, but I haven't tried it as I think it was like twice the price of RJ's. Ninza is free and does not work witch tick replay in nt8. If you want free ones try the ones that were just posted in this thread. Apparently they were coded by a ninjatrader support staff and they work...

There's a lot of love here for Ninjatrader, that much is clear. I however am not in that camp. The only indicators that have any real value are orderflow type indicators, and they are very expensive ad-ons for Ninjatrader. If you get cheap or free or poorly coded indicators or ad-ons you are going be running one shaky rig...

I'm looking for delta volume indicator, delta momentum, cumulative delta, and there is no free one available... I'm looking at Rancho Dinero, and it's a few hundred bucks... and the list goes on... most platforms these days include these basic tools... ninja comes with nothing, you will pay dearly for every indicator and analysis tool other than a moving average..

it looks like you might just be wrong again

maybe you should watch tomorrow's webinar:

I don't have the indicator from Innovative but here is a side-by-side comparison of Ninzarenko on the left and Unirenko (from this forum) on the right. As you can see they are quite similar. I was using settings of 4,4. Ninzarenko does not have a setting for offset. Ninzarenko bars look a lot cleaner.

by now, if you are not with OFA then you don't want their business any way, no loss for them. Oder Flow is most overused term, imho.
