Hi,

New user here, also very much non-programmer. I had some eSignal indicators that I used and was looking for similar ones in NT. Specifically, an indicator that plotted lines at 120%(user's choice) ATR value on the price chart. Backtesting shows that a high percentage of the time the day's action is contained by these values.

2nd, an indicator that plots a line at the High of the first hour(or some # of minutes) and another at the low of the same period. Usually the High of the first hour is the high of the day....

I've looked at the Wizard to try to build them, but like I said, totally non-programmer...
If this is the wrong place for this question, please accept my apologies.

Unfortunately, these indicators are not "out of the box" and would need to be custom programmed. The wizard will only set up the indicator code, the actual logic must be completed by you.

A few options -

- Maybe someone in the community would be willing to contribute?
- You could attempt to do this yourself, please see the 6 various Indicator Development Tutorials in the Help Guide
- You could contract a consultant to put these together for you. From a programmers perspective, they are simple to do and should not cost a lot money

blaporte,

I think I created the indicator you're looking for. This will plot a high and a low line based on a specific time range.

It's at: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/vb/showthread.php?t=4156

Let me know if it's what you're looking for...

The ATR indicator is close to what I need, but not quite. I would like it to plot a line at a level equal to the value of today's lowest low plus the ATR for the last 7 days. Another plot would be at the level equal to today's Highest high minus the 7 day ATR value.
I've tried with a 3rd party programmer, but get no reply now.
