Hello aaadetos,

Thanks for your notes.

You could consider sending a direct message to derekphelps on the forums to ask them if they could provide you with the script in question.

AutoTrendH (AutoTrend with Historical Lines)

Im not sure if someone has'nt already done this, but I modified the AutoTrend indicator (now AutoTrendH) to allow historical printing of trendlines as well as added some signaling (TrendDirection, TrendLine Price, markings of where trendline was detected).
I've written a basic demo strategy that utilizes the indicator and posted it to the strategy forum HERE

Please let me know if there are any bugs or maybe enhancements that could be added. Im considering an oscillator to show trend angle. Any other ideas?

Hello, Somehow I stumbled on this old post and tried clicking on the link in post Do orders rest at the exchange, broker or on your PC? to see the sample use of the indicator with the strategy as posted by Derek. But the link isn't currently going anywhere. How may I find this ? Also, Derek if you happen to read this can you re-post again somewhere?
Thanks!

I hope someone can help me.

I loaded this into my Ninja7 and somehow it broke something and it says it won't compile.

Please help.

Automatic Trend Line Indicator

Is this something someone can port over to NT8? Seems as if there is way less support and way fewer indicators for NT8. I'd LOVE something like this for NT8.

I never used NT7, so I'm not sure of the actual functionality but the new version NT 8.0.18.0 has a Trend lines indicator. You can specify strength, number of lines (historical) and some of the visual controls (colors, transparency, etc...)

AutoTrendLines at Double Bottoms and Tops

One thing I would like to change about the way this indicator works is how it handles situations such as in the attached chart image. When there is a prolonged series of bars with the same high or low the trend line is drawn in a way that I don't think would be normally done had it been manually drawn.
In the attached image the blue line is manually drawn and the green line is is ploted by the indicator. The indicator starts the line at the earliest bar low to the next significant swing earliest bar low. But I doubt most traders would do that and I think it doesn't actually make sense to do that. Some times a market trades horizontally until it reaches a support or resistance point and it is at that point we may choose to take a trade. So the plot should probably be from the most recent bar at that low to the most recent bar at the next significant low.
This isn't a problem for the Swing indicator but I think it is a problem for the AutoTrendLines indicator ( which is using the Swing indicator ).
Can anyone suggest an easy way to alter the way the AutoTrendLines indicator plots under these circumstances?

This is actually a very cool indicator... try adding it to the chart twice.... fast and slow... strength set to 2 and 13 and fade the break-outs when both are same colour.

No errors on the log tab of myControl Center

I can see arrows but not lines

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

Rita, any errors in the log tab of your Control Center as this happens?

[RitaPacheco]

Hi

Since last week I can not see the lines of this indicator only the Arrows.
I already reimported the indicator from the forum and imported again into the NT but didn't fix it.

I have NT 6,5.1000.16

Do you know how fix this?

Thanks

Has anyone been able to use this awesome indicator on something other than price, i.e. Stochs PeriodK or something like that? It could make for a mean divergence indicator.
