Bollinger Percent Indicator?

[Spiderbird]

Hi there,

In NT7, I was using BollingerPercentB2 for a lot of my scripts. In NT8, there are third party options (from Ninza and elsewhere), but they seem to bog down performance a bit.

Since there isn't a default one in NT8 (that I could find), do I just have to calculate my own bollinger percentage via %B = (Current Price - Lower Band) / (Upper Band - Lower Band)?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello Spiderbird,

Thank you for your note.

I'm not familiar with the indicator, however you could convert the indicator to NT8.

There is not an official indicator/strategy converter which takes scripts from NT7 and converts them to NT8 however on the forum there is a post which provides script for conversion.

I’d like to mention its best to do a manual conversion for accuracy as not all scripts are simple enough to be converted directly.

Also below I’ve provided a link to code breaking changes which you should consider when converting your scripts:

Converting customer code is out of the scope of NinjaScript support however if you’d like I could have someone from our business development team pass over a list of third party developers that you could contact about debugging your code.

I would suggest checking the indicator section of our forum, its possible the indicator has been converted and posted already.
