Help with simple indicator.

[Oferedry]

Hi everyone!
I have no programming skills , And try to get some help with this one.

Take 3 points from a candlestick and plug it into this equation :
X= (Close - Low)/ (High- Low)

That's it!

And in the next bar:
Only buy when X score is between 0-25%
Only sell when X score is between 75-100%

I recommend it with addition to your strategy...

Thank you very much!

Hello Oferedry,

Thank you for your inquiry.

You would be able to get Close, Low, and High values of a bar by utilizing the Close, Low, and High collections.

More information about these collections can be found in the NinjaTrader help guide at the links below:

• Close: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...nt7/?close.htm
• Low: https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt7/?low.htm
• High: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help.../nt7/?high.htm

Here's a quick example of how you could utilize these in NinjaScript:

private double X = 0;

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
     // with CalculateOnBarClose set to true in Initialize(), the logic below will execute once a bar closes
     X = (Close[0] - Low[0]) / (High[0] - Low[0]);

     if (X >= 0 && X <= 25) // if X is more than or equal to 0 AND less than or equal to 25, enter long
          EnterLong();
     else if (X >= 75 && X <= 100) // else if X is more than or equal to 75 AND less than or equal to 100, enter short
          EnterShort();
}

We do have resources to help you begin creating NinjaScript Strategies/Indicators.

The best way to begin learning NinjaScript is to use the Strategy Wizard. With the Strategy Wizard you can setup conditions and variables and then see the generated code in the NinjaScript Editor by clicking the View Code button.

I'm also proving a link to a pre-recorded set of videos 'Strategy Wizard 301' and 'NinjaScript Editor 401' for you to view at your own convenience.

NinjaScript Editor 401

There are a few Sample Automated Strategies which come pre-configured in NinjaTrader that you can use as a starting point. These are found under Tools--> Edit NinjaScript--> Strategy. You will see locked strategies where you can see the details of the code, but you will not be able to edit (you can though always create copies you can later edit via right click > Save as)

We also have some Reference samples online as well as ‘Tips and Tricks’ for both indicators and strategies:

Click here to see our NinjaScript Tips

These samples can be downloaded, installed and modified from NinjaTrader and hopefully serve as a good base for your custom works.

Further, the following link is to our help guide with an alphabetical reference list to all supported methods, properties, and objects that are used in NinjaScript.

We also have a few tutorials in our help guide for both Indicators and Strategies.

For now it's too complicate to me... But I'm on it!!!
Can you guide me how to wrote new indicator that plot the value of X

All i want is to see the X value.

Thank you again

Hello Oferedry,

If you would like your indicator to plot the value of X at bar close, you'll want to ensure that CalculateOnBarClose is set to true in the Initialize() method. In OnBarUpdate(), you'll just have your indicator calculate and plot X.

Here's an example:

private double X = 0;

protected override void Initialize()
{
     CalculateOnBarClose = true;
     Add(new Plot(Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Orange), PlotStyle.Line, "X Line"));
}

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
     X = (Close[0] - Low[0]) / (High[0] - Low[0]);
     Value.Set(X);
}

Please, let us know if we may be of further assistance.
