3 color Heiken bars

[stephenszpak]

Hi

I was wondering if anyone has alreay done this...
I'm thinking about writing a script which would
add a color to Heiken bars.

Up = color A
Down = color B

A body within a body would be color C. This
would indicate a pause/possible trend change bar.

See image if desired.

First, as I look at previous posts on the subject...
is this even possible?

Has the code of the garden variety Heiken even been written?

Thanks,

Have you already checked those scripts from our sharing regarding this topic? http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/...=heiken&desc=1

There are a number of programs there.
Are you positive one of them will do exactly
what I'm trying to do?

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

No, this was a suggestion to get you started. Hopefully you'll find code snippets to build your own from...

So what I'm thinking about is without a doubt, possible?
(I find coding extremely difficult and time consuming,
that's why I ask.)

Is the next version of NT going to have the capability
I'm thinking about built in already? I'll just wait for that.

stephenszpak, we'll announce NinjaTrader 7 features when we start the beta phase at the end of this quarter.

Yes, what you're thinking about should be possible, but then coding can rarely be generalized. What's impossible for one, can be quite easy for somebody else...so either give it a shot yourself or contact a NinjaScript consultant to get this done the professional way - http://www.ninjatrader.com/webnew/pa...injaScript.htm

Thanks. I really think the option of what I want
would help some people here. Since you think it
might work I'll waste, I mean, invest, some hours
in it.
