Gift Indicators: Total Alert & Some Others...

[koganam]

Agree totally one should be very weary of downloading and installing any "locked" code as "DLL" regardless of how friendly you think the vendor/person is(how do you think they get you)
You have no clue what is in that "DLL" as well you have no clue what that"DLL" is doing behind the scenes!

And to any that come in defense of said "generosity" Screw you!! and have a nice day!
Been there done that and suffered the consequences!

Very true. Unfortunately, the expectation that all vendors should give away their proprietary programming secrets by open-sourcing everything is also not reasonable. The vendor may be willing to provide functionality for free, without revealing his intellectual property.

After that, the decision is really, (actually, always has been), up to the user whether or not they want to use the code. At the same time, one has to assume that a vendor who has identified himself to NinjaTrader would be foolhardy to place malicious code into a product that is being sold. The potential damage to the vendor's business is immeasurable, if a vendor got exposed doing that.

Ultimately, no matter what we do, when we use any closed code, we are also, ipso facto, making a decision of measured trust. Do you REALLY know everything that your operating system itself is doing behind the scenes? Have we not had many accusations that the closed-code Windows operating system has backdoors for the NSA? Are they true? We cannot be sure, but we all still use Windows if we want to use NinjaTrader, even in a sandboxed Virtual Machine.

Some, but not all true. However, the reason people charge for their products is because they take responsibility. When you pay for something, you have a case for any wrong doings. But with free stuff if you are screwed you have no case.

The reason Ninja would not allow you to post closed source codes in download area is because they do not want to be responsible for any undesirable outcome. Even with the open codes they make you agree to their conditions before you are allowed to download open source codes.

Let's be clear that nothing is ever free, you end up paying for it regardless. You are basically indirectly soliciting traffic to your site for downloading other "valuable and not for free" or your "not valuable but free" stuff for which you require one to provide an e-mail address before downloading. Most of those that give away their "locked" stuff for free make their money by selling or leasing the e-mails to spammers, as others do with the "Indicator of the Month."

Let's be frank, 99% of indicators these days, open or locked, are knock offs with minor variations and in most cases there is an open version available. Case in example, look how many vendors (some are NT partners) are making a living by relabeling monpere's open source UniRenko bars and selling or leasing them for $200-500/month.

True, 99% of "sold" indicators are protected because their vendors assume responsibility for their product. But for the same reason, 99% of serious traders with live and funded accounts will not risk trading with a black box.

Cheers!

Thank you Koganam for helping to clarify the issue here. You are an extremely talented programmer, and you don't know it's your talent and confidence that inspired & motivated me to become a NT vendor. Sorry because I've entered this business and somewhat competed with you

Thank you, aligator. Each person has a personal view on the problem. Of course, giving indicators away for free is a mutual benefit for me and users. I have coded all of my free indicators as carefully and beautifully as with my premium indicators. Perhaps you will not touch my free stuff, but in the case you want to try (just in that case ), I will be very glad if only 1 of my free indicators is useful for your trading

Cheers all.

Good luck to you friend. But you know "when you put lipstick on a pig, at the end of the day, it's still a pig" and still belongs to your neighbor.

People get what they pay for, if that is a fair description of what we call mutual interest. Yes, perhaps one day I may use one of your original ideas turned into a unique indicator for a fee.

BTW, here is the free and Open Source version of the level indicator posted above, it does the work a lot simpler and less cluttering, with an additional bonus alert code that can be copied (of course with credits )

Cheers!

Haha no broplem man.

One thing that you may not know, however, is that most of my free indicators used to be paid indicators. For example, Total Alert was once for sale at $40, and now I make it free here for everyone.

Have a nice week, aligator (should your nick be alligator? )
