Swing High/Low and Zig Zag Indicators

Problem with integrating ZiZgag.cs

Hi,
I downloaded ZigZag.cs but I did not want to replace the original ZigZag indicator so I copied ZigZag.cs as ZigZag2.cs into NinjaTrader 6\bin\Custom\Ěndicator subdirectory.
Next day I tried to compile a custom indicator and got an error message warning that there are 2 ZigZag indicators.
I edited ZigZag2.cs and replaced each occurence of ZigZag with ZigZag2 but got sort of this warning "Change will not work because a system indicator cannot be saved".
What is to be done when downloading a Ninja script from the support forum ?

Unfortunately your installation now is screwed up. Please:
- uninstall NT6 via control panel
- manually remove files <my documents>/NinjaTrader6/bin/Custom/Indicator/@ZipZag.cs and @ZipZag2.cs
- reinstall NT6

Should be working again.

Fortunately, I had not to re-install NT6 and everything is working as before after I had done some manual cleaning. Thanks.

Hi Trader1512,

Thank you for your post.

You can download the ZigZag indicator at the following link: http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/...rch=zig&desc=1

After downloading, you will need to import the indicator using the steps listed at the following link: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...e.html?Import1

Thanks . . . I appreciate the kudos and PMs. Frankly, there is too much going on in this indicator to distribute it as freeware not to mention my limited bandwidth to address likely follow-up questions. I haven't decided whether I will distribute it at all but I know Ray and Christian welcome feedback on how to improve their indicator offerings, as this thread will attest.

Also, please use a private message for inquiries of this nature or my contact info that can be found on my website that is linked to the NinjaScript Consultants page.

Hi folks,

Sorry for digging up a 3-yr-old thread; but does anyone know of an "open source" implementation of the Whitmark zigzag indy. The Whitmark implementation seems to be the best I've seen. I'm in need of the source so I can tweak it for automating a number of strats that I'm currently trading manually. I went to the Whitmark site, but can't seem to find any info on it.

Many thanks in advance!

A Better ZigZag Indicator

The Whitmark implementation seems to be the best I've seen.

Thanks for the compliment. I am afraid there is only one guy on the planet who has this open source. Send me an email with your intentions for usage.

Hi Whitmark,

On 12/04/2010, I sent you an email as per your suggestion, but have not heard from you for a while. Would you be so kind to let me know the status of our conversation (via wbear009 at yahoo-dot-com). I truly think your implementation of the Zigzag indicator can put to good use for automation.

Thanks so much.
