Default Parabolic SAR

I have been trying to simulate the NInjaTrader Parabolic SAR on Excel. A couple of versions downloaded from the internet and I can not match up to those calculated in Ninja Trader. I have tried to review the Ninjascript but I do not understand it.

Is there a source I can review that shows me the algorithm used by Ninjatrader?

Thanks

Richard

Hello RIBOOWW2,

Thank you for your post.

I believe you were already looking here, but just to be clear - you can view the source code by going to Tools--> Edit NinjaScript--> Indicator--> select 'ParabolicSAR'.

This will give you the NinjaScript source code and contains all of the information as to how NinjaTrader calculates for this indicator.


The only additional information we have related to this is the Language Reference, however this pertains to how to utilize this indicator method via NinjaScript:

Any information regarding the algorithm will be available in the source code.

Hi,

I would suggest taking the first steps in learning NinjaScript by visiting the Educational Resources section of our Help Guide:
From here, you will find a handful of concepts, tutorials and tips to help learn and provide you with the information you are looking for.

If you have limited time or programming capabilities, you can discuss your requirements with any of our NinjaScript consultants.
