Conversion Request: Tape / tight trend lines

[ctrlbrk]

This is stolen from ET and is in EasyLanguage.

Anyone here willing to convert to NT? I think is quite useful.

Anyone?

Elliot / roonius ?

[Elliott Wave]

I'm clueless with EL. The only reason I can convert anything any all is because MQL code is almost identical to NinjaScript.

The indicator does look interesting though.

[roonius]

Enjoy,
I just removed time settings, but they can be added back easy.

[ctrlbrk]

roonius,

You're too awesome Thanks kindly.

Don't get me wrong, but isn't this indicator pretty useless without setting a certain span it should adapt to highs and lows?

I'm still looking for a NT auto trendline indicator, which really does the job (channels etc.).

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

timokrates, did you check into this here -

[timokrates]

Thanks for the tip, bertrand.

Yes I tested it, but it's not really what I'm looking for.
It only draws lines on one side, so no channels, wedges etc.

Grüße nach Hamburg!

[NinjaTrader_Austin]

dj22522, if no one comes forward with a NT7 version, you can either do the conversion yourself or you can contact one of our third party NinjaScript consultants.

[dj22522]

How can I convert this to NT7 myself ?

http://www.ninjatrader.com/migration-guide-v7.php

thx but no joy having followed the instructions.
I copied the source file from NT6.5 to NT7 but the cs file will not compile.

There error is identical for each of four lines:
line 52 column 6,
line 53,column 6
line 59 column 7
line 60 column 7

The error description for each of the above lines is:
"No overload for mehtod "Draw Line" takes 8 arguments."

and here are the 4 lines, in bold.

Any help appreciated.

DrawLine(CurrentBar.ToString(),2,Low[2],2,Low[1]+slope,TapeColor,DashStyle.Solid,1);
DrawLine(CurrentBar.ToString()+"Par",2,Low[2]+tapewidth,0,Low[1]+tapewidth+slope,TapeColor,DashStyle.Solid,1);

} else
if (Low[1]<Low[2])
{
slope = High[2]-High[1];
DrawLine(CurrentBar.ToString(),2,High[2],0,High[1]-slope,TapeColor,DashStyle.Solid,1);
DrawLine(CurrentBar.ToString()+"Par",2,High[2]-tapewidth,0,High[1]-tapewidth-slope,TapeColor,DashStyle.Solid,1);

[NinjaTrader_RyanM1]

You likely just need to add autoscale parameter for DrawLine()


DrawLine(CurrentBar.ToString(), true, 2,Low[2],2,Low[1]+slope,TapeColor,DashStyle.Solid,1);
DrawLine(CurrentBar.ToString()+"Par", true, 2,Low[2]+tapewidth,0,Low[1]+tapewidth+slope,TapeColor,DashStyle.Solid,1);
