Wavy Tunnel Indicators
I'm not familiar with the NT C++ language and I'd appreciate some help. I'm trying to create a bundle of indicators that use the indicators that are already built into NT, but have specific parameters. Is there an easy way to change parameters in these indicators or can someone code and bundle them for me? Thanks.

Hey Stock John,
There is an easy way to change the parameters on the built in indicators that come with NT.
Starting at the Control Panel window: Left click 'Tools', left click 'Edit NinjaScript', then left click 'Indicators'.
This will open a box with all of the built in indicators. Scroll through the list and find the one you want, left click on it then left click 'Open'
In order to make a change to it, you will have to first change the name of the indicator. Simply right click anywhere in an open area of the indicator, this will open a dialog box, select 'Save As', then rename the indicator as anything you like. (You cannot edit the preprogrammed indicator itself so you have to first change its name.)
After you have changed the name...Look near the top and you will see "Variables". Now, look on the far left side on the same line as "Varibles' and you will see a 'plus' (+) sign next to the number. Click on the 'plus' sign and it will open the Variables. This is where you will make the changes to any parameters. Most likely you will make the change on a line that is a private int.
After making your changes, you will have to Compile. You can either right click in an open area, scroll down and find "Compile'...or simple hit F5 on your keyboard.
I highly suggest that you go slow, compile often and document the changes you have made in case you run into a problem.
Good Luck,

Hello StockJock,
Phoenix's reply is correct in his instructions on how you can make changes to these indicators.
If you would like to take on learning NinjaScript, we have a fully documented help guide which will help you get started with Ninja Script. You will find language references to all of the methods and functions you will be using. You will also see a tutorial section which will help you create your first indicator and get you started with some of these concepts.
A link to our Help Guide can be found below: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt7/
I am also linking you to the Educational Resources section of the Help Guide to help you get started with NinjaScript: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG..._resources.htm
You will find Reference Samples online as well as some Tips and Tricks for both indicators and strategies:

Attached are two charts with the Wavy Tunnel II indicator on them. One chart is from NT8 and the other is from ThinkOrSwim (TOS). On TOS on the lower chart, I have an indicator that is called Bungee with all the indicators listed in the above chart. However, I am unable to merge them together on NT8 as I did on TOS. How can I do that? I've attached the Wavy Tunnel II template with a txt extension. To use it change the extension to xml.Attached Files2 PhotosLast edited by StockJock; 05-07-2021, 06:40 AM.

Hello StockJock,
I can't give much input with the template without having the indicators to test it with, but looking at the screenshot, everything that I see looks to be the same as the ThinkOrSwim chart. (Indicators residing in three panels including the price panel.)
The charting documentation below can help to point out how to move indicators around on a chart.
Chart Panels - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...art_panels.htm
Editting Indicator parameters - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...torsParameters
Drag and Drop Chart Objects - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...opChartObjects
If this doesn't help, could you clarify on what you mean by "merging" the indicators together? It may help to draw on the screenshots to point out what you are looking to change.JimNinjaTrader Customer Service

In the chart image above, the Bungee indicator is shown. In a previous post I've shown you how it looks in TOS and that its not happening in NT8. In the table above shows all the indicators in the Bungee lower panel. I don't know how much clearer I can explain it.

Hello StockJock,
I had misunderstood and thought Bungee was a third party indicator.
When I load the template, I get the result in the first screenshot below.
Do you mean you want the purple WilliamsR plot to be overlaid over the other indicators in the same panel instead of adjusting that panel's scale? You could change that indicator's Scale Justification property to Overlay to achieve this.
The only other difference I spot is that the EMA 165 and EMA 144 plots are autoscaling the chart, which is not done in the ThinkOrSwim chart.
If I am overlooking something, could you point out the specific indicator which is you would like to change and elaborate on what specifically you want to see different?
I look forward to assisting.JimNinjaTrader Customer Service

Translation from Deepl.com:
About wave tunnel indicators Hi friend I am just starting on the ninja trader platform and I don't know how to configure the moving averages to put the wave tunnel on my chart. I also don't know how to put the Awesome Oscillator. Can you help me? I have tried all the ways to configure the moving averages for the wavy tunnel and the platform doesn't allow me.

Hello mendeskarina,
The file shared is the contents of a chart template.
You would need to download the TXT file that StockJock uploaded, and rename it to so it has a file extension of XML.
Then you would need to drop it in the Documents\NinjaTrader 8\templates\Chart\ folder.
Once the template is installed, you may then right click on the chart and select Load Template to load the template, and the indicators will be added and configured as per the template.JimNinjaTrader Customer Service
