Different ZigZags and SAR ZigZag

[contrax]

Hello, anyone can help me with the ZigZag.

I want the ZigZag have the inputs the same as MT4.

Depth, Deviation and Backstep. (The same as MT4 ZigZag)


and

I have another kind of ZigZag that have SAR_step and SAR_maximum

This is a extract of the code of this last sar zigzag.

//---- input parameters
extern double SAR_step=0.02;
extern double SAR_maximum=0.2;

int start()
{
//int counted_bars=IndicatorCounted();
string txt;
int w,PosLow,PosHigh;
double LPic=1000000,HPic=0,price;
datetime TimeTmp;

//----
ExtMapBuffer1[0]=Close[0];
ExtMapBuffer2[0]=EMPTY_VALUE;

for( w=0;w<BarsCount;w++){

if( w!=0 ){ ExtMapBuffer1[w]=EMPTY_VALUE; ExtMapBuffer2[w]=EMPTY_VALUE; }

if( iSAR(NULL,0,SAR_step,SAR_maximum,w) > Close[w] && LPic>=Low[w] ){ LPic=Low[w]; PosLow=w; }
if( iSAR(NULL,0,SAR_step,SAR_maximum,w) < Close[w] && HPic<=High[w] ){ HPic=High[w]; PosHigh=w; }

// H -> L
if( iSAR(NULL,0,SAR_step,SAR_maximum,(w+1)) > Close[w+1] && iSAR(NULL,0,SAR_step,SAR_maximum,w) < Close[w] && HPic!=0)
{
ExtMapBuffer1[PosHigh]=HPic;
ExtMapBuffer2[PosHigh]=HPic;
HPic=0;
}

// L -> H
if( iSAR(NULL,0,SAR_step,SAR_maximum,w) < Close[w] && iSAR(NULL,0,SAR_step,SAR_maximum,w+1) > Close[w+1] && LPic!=1000000 )
{
ExtMapBuffer1[PosLow]=LPic;
ExtMapBuffer2[PosLow]=LPic;
LPic=1000000;
}


}



Thank you.

Hello,

Thank you for the post.

I wanted to check, what are your questions about what you have provided?

The Default ZigZag that comes with the platform would have different inputs than what you have said the MT4 indicator has and very likely different overall logic than the version for MT4.

Are you asking how to create Inputs for those values or how to design the overall logic, both?

The inputs can be generated using the indicator wizard in NinjaTrader but the logic could not be as easily generated. The logic you would need to review the MT4 indicators source code, and then try to replicate that as best you can using NinajaScript. There can be differences between platforms and how they operate so this is something you would need to compare side by side to see how each indicator works on its native platform. You could then use that knowledge to either duplicate and change the existing NT zig zag or create a new zig zag based on the logic of the MT4 indicator.

I look forward to being of further assistance.

I want to know if anyone can help me to create that inputs to the ZigZag Indicator. I dont have any knowledge about programming. Thank you.
