Any chance of including a chart trend line channel tool in the next release? Would be very useful.....

Thanks for the suggestion.

Please check out the RegressionChannel() indicator, could this work for you?

Thanks Ray.

I've tried the automated Regression Channel - it's great to have in Ninja. A couple more suggestions! IMHO, it would be nice to hang the start point of the RC off a pivot of strength X as an option, as well ashaving a fixed lookback. Also the Std Dev value is an integer and I have found that 1.5, 2.5especially to be useful values.

I still think a manual channel tool with an optional centreline, alongside the trendline tool would be very useful - shift + F3?...

I agree. I have added implementing RC as a draw tool to our commited chart enhancements. No ETA on this at this time.

Sorry Ray - what I originally meant was a manual tool that allows drawing of a channel just like the Ray (no pun!) but withadditonal adjustable parallel ray(s). It would be nice to have the RC as well though!

Thanks for the clarification. You can select and copy past an existing Ray, not exactly what you want but may be a littleeasier than drawing a new Ray.

I too would like to cast my vote for a manual trend channeltool that seems to be ubiquitous among other trading platforms. Ideally this tool would create a parallel ray with dotted mid-channel line.

Anyone else interested in this?
