Is there a way to program this into a strategy for backtesting or has there been an automated trading strategy created for this yet? Also, does it draw the ABC in real time? Example, will it draw a B on a candle close so that you can anticipate C wave? Or does it only draw after the conclusion of the triangle? Thanks!!
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Firstly, you’re not gonna automate this stuff to identify and trade, it’s always gonna be the HARD way so forget about it. JP Morgan and Goldman probably have something in their fortified bunkers under lock and key and it’s probably more secure then the kgb and cia and even then only a few have eyes only on that. Forget it.
Friendly questions for you and all here…
Do you know what and ABC or a triangle is? Just a friendly ask. This isn’t text book stuff you read about and it’s all there like in the school house. I’m being brief here on the vague corrections.
How do you look at charts? Is it correct? Really are the charts being interpreted correctly? Price is very, very deceptive.

Strategies based on older PriceActionSwing versions will not work with this update. They require a manual code update.
Remove old PriceActionSwing versions (do a backup first) before you import the updated version. Details further done.
Release notes:
- added the superb rendering code from @traderpards, which results in an enormous performance boost
- improved the core algorithms and data structures (results in another performance boost)
- added statistics for swing relations
- improved UI settings
- improved the general code design
- fixed some smaller bugs
- removed the basic PriceActionSwing indicator - the PriceActionSwingPro version contains everything now
There is also a new market analyzer template for ABC and divergence signals as well as for swing trends and relations.
Hints for importing PriceActionSwing:
You have to remove the old PriceActionSwing version before you import the new one. Otherwise you will get an error like this.
To remove the old PriceActionSwing version open NinjaScript Editor (NinjaTrader Control Center -> New -> NinjaScript Editor). In the NinjaScript Editor you find the NinjaScript Explorer on the right side. In the NinjaScript Explorer open the Indicator folder and right click on the PriceActionSwing folder and choose remove. Now you can import the new PriceActionSwing version.
I welcome any feedback, comments and suggestions for improvement. Enjoy the updated PriceActionSwing indicator.
Please see the attached screenshot. The Oscillator is not displaying correctly. I added the three options on the chart. Anybody is having this problem with the updated indicator?
@Tangotx - I had the same issue and found this worked for me.
Locate the PriceActionSwingOscillator Folder - Documents - NinjaTrader 8 - templates - Indicator - PriceActionSwingOscillator
Open the folder and in my case there were 2 files - Default.xml and PAS Trend.xml
Delete these files and you will then find you have the same layout as Dorschden has posted on his chart !! PriceActionSwingOscillator Folder
I had to refactor the code. Due to this strategies using the old PriceActionSwing versions need a manual code update or you stick with the old version, which is also fine.
The new Market Analyzer template can be found attached to this post.
There is no strategy in the original download.
The simple PriceActionSwing is removed and everything is now in PriceActionSwingPro. I put in the simple and the pro versions in earlier versions to save CPU power. But the new version is more than fast enough and therefor I removed the simple version.
I sent @Daytrader999 an updated version which has the entry arrows for ABC signals. He was so kind to upload the new PriceActionSwing version for me. It is now available.
Will the plots for HL, LH, LL, HH, DB,DT, be added back for access via Bloodhound, Strategy Builder, and Market Analyzer ? I'm not seeing them in the new version. I sometimes use M.A. columns for Higher Low and Lower High , now with the new versions those plots are missing in Market Analyzer?
