Hello 1chtrader,

It looks like the correction for this is still pending upload.
While debugging for another issue, line 174 was commented out. This was mistakenly left commented and was not uncommented.

A correction was submitted a few weeks ago and is somewhere in the pipeline.

In the meantime, open the NinjaScript Editor from the New menu, open the Indicators folder and double click DValueArea, uncommented line 174 by removing the two slashes at the front of the line then right-click the code and select compile. Last, reload the script on the chart.

response to 261. It appears in indicators and it's labeled on the chart but doesn't show anything. Here is a picture of log error. Thanks

Hello valberbastos,

Welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!

While I did port this script from NinjaTrader 7 to NinjaTrader 8, I was not the original author and I don't have a full understanding of the logic.

That said, looking at the code, this appears to be related to when the session is reset.

Hello 1chtrader,

I've redownloaded from the User App Share and tested on my end and found this is working as expected. Is the DValueArea not appearing in the Indicators window in the Available list?

https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/user-app-share-download/dvaluearea/

Are any errors appearing on the Log tab of the Control Center?

[1chtrader]

I just tried to install Dvaluearea and it says it was imported but blank and ninja help has the same problem. Can someone point me to where i can get it? Thanks

[valberbastos]

Does anyone can explain the what "Present Method" does?

Evolving VAL and VAH

Thanks for your hard work on the latest iteration of the DValue indicator. It has improved my trading.

The settings allow for the evolving VAH and VAL to plot as lines just like the real time POC. However, no lines appear for the evolving VAL and VAH.

Can someone please help?

Thanks.

Hello johnnymustard,

I wanted to note that if you are not able to find a community member on the forums to implement the logic you are requesting, you can also contact a professional NinjaScript Consultant who would be eager to create or modify this script at your request or assist you with your script. The NinjaTrader Ecosystem has affiliate contacts who provide educational as well as consulting services. Please let me know if you would like our business development follow up with you with a list of affiliate consultants who would be happy to create this script or any others at your request.

As far a creating a plot, this done with the AddPlot() method in OnStateChange when State is State.SetDefaults.

Adding a plot creates an index in the Values collection that allows you to set the value for the plot to whatever value you would like.

RtVAH & RtVAL to compliment RtPOC

DeanV, I like so many others greatly appreciate your fine work here. It is a huge help.

1) I just finished reading the entire thread going back to 2009 and NT6.5 (apparently there
is a real-time version for 6.5). There aren't any working models (RtValueArea)
for NT7 or 8 that I can find. There're at least a couple dozen requests for this feature
over the past 9-ish years. DeanV did all the heavy lifting by creating this beauty in the
first place, Thank you DeanV.
Can someone please implement this long overdue, highly anticipated feature for the NT8 version of DValueArea?

2) Q: Post 197 on https://ninjatrader.com/support/foru...DValue&page=14
"How can I have evolving VAH and VAL plotted on the chart (like Evolving POC)?"

A: Post 199 on https://ninjatrader.com/support/foru...DValue&page=14
"You'll have to write some code if you want the historical real-time value area.
Just add two more plots and look at how the RtPOC was called to duplicate."

Based on the authors response, it looks mighty simple for someone that knows what they're doing.
If someone will tell me where to place these two plots and
what I need to reconfigure from RtPOC to find RtVAH & RtVAL, I will make the changes and post it.

3) Can anyone point me to the code I'd have to change to have yesterdays VA plot on yesterday rather than today?
See pic "VA_shift".

4) I've included the most recent version of DValueArea I can find.

I thank all in advance for any guidance and especially DeanV.

Hello ericson,

Please consult with the original author of the script, DeanV, for specifics about usage and requests for changes.

How can i go about accessing the market profile data?

It looks like its stored in two dimensional array "priceHitsArray". 2 columns, # however many slots. I assume columns are for prices and their total volume?

How could another indicator access it to use or analyze?


UPDATE: Solved this issue by creating a new indicator

[ericson]

Hi, wanted to get back to you. Indicator seems to be error free now!

Is it normal to have 5% cpu load with indy, one chart, with COBC?

I remove it, cpu is about 1%

UPDATE: Seems zorder putbehind option when true causes excessive cpu load.

Also, i highly suggest declaring variables in the beginning of the script, those that can be, to improve performance. That way the variables are allocated a permanent memory space, rather than creating new ones each processing event.

Hi ericson,

The sessionIterator is moved to be created in State.DataLoaded.

Added !IsInHitTest to OnRender().
