Is there a strategy that won’t ever be invalidated?

The data is not static. If you are using the data for the current bar then any strategy that uses that data can become invalid. If you want a strategy that doesn't become invalid then create one that uses the previous bars and not the current one. Since it was a previous bar then the data will be valid for that bar.

What other strategies do you use for automation?

If you know C#, you can write your own strategies and add it. I have a small section on how to write your owns strategy and add it in the readme.

Any high frequency trading? Or what about trading the spread between bid and ask?

Just curious, what kind of results is everyone getting? I tried to run OrderFlowBot on playback w/tick replay and it doesn't seem to be doing anything. I do have an OrderFlow+ subscription.

I've tried the following default settings and also 1 for valid bid/ask, running MES 4 range chart, and nothing, nothing in the NS output windows, aside from a message saying it's been enabled.

Hi WaleeTheRobot
Thanks for the great work
I couldn't import the zip file from git repo
So I downloaded the zip file and unzip
However there is no AddOns folder in my installation path @ D:\Program Files\NinjaTrader 8\bin\Custom
so I copied the entire unzipped folder and now it shows as under





Then I opened up the ninjascript editor and compiled without any error

however I don't find above either in indicators or strategies

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

I think you have it in the wrong AddOns. It should be: C:\Users\<username>\Documents\NinjaTrader 8\bin\Custom\AddOns

It looks like its disabled because you are selecting to enable the backtesting.

Walee, what exactly are the imbalances showing? Thank you!

This doesn't create the imbalance indicator. If you don't understand imbalances, I suggest you watch some videos on it.

I understand them. I was wondering what type of imbalances are being shown through the footprints. Is it bid/ask or delta, or both? Thanks.

Just switch the volumetric chart to whatever you want to see... If you want to look at a bid/ask then switch it to the bid/ask footprint. If you want to look at a delta then switch it to the delta footprint. Again, this doesn't show you the bid/ask or delta. You need to use NinjaTrader's volumetric bars and select if you want to see a delta or bid/ask.
