Swing indicator edits

[dj22522]

if you open the script in ninjascript editor, search for the text: "green" then you come out at the swing high, then scroll a bit up or down than search for red.

i`ve made them turquoise so if you cant get it working i can post it here....

Yes this is how I've also had to change the colour of the lines.
But I want to avoid having to do this each time when I add the indicator more than once to a chart.
I want to be able to change the colour of the lines in the same way as changing the SwingHigh/Low using chart settings,
(via right clicking the chart) ?
The option to change line colours also needs to be in the plots section in the indicator settings but I don't know how to do this.

Many thanks..

i`m not totally in-to coding, i only use one setup and trade every market almost the same.

what an idea is:

Copy the inidcator and change the name to swingmodified 3, 4 and so on. and then change the colors to the right ones for every market you like...

That makes two of us re: coding
It would obviously be much more user friendly but your "idea" makes sense until some kind soul can help us non-coders out.
Appreciate the help Rienb
thx..

Yes indeed,

I would like to know how the line of the swing hi-low can be stopped when a bar crosses the line, anyone at ninja HQ or scripters know how to do that?

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

You would need to stop setting values for your Plots (dataseries) at this point then Rienb.

So what do i need to change at this part of the code?

(this is the edit on the swing that has been made already, i want the swingline to stop when a bar crosses it (so the line doesn't need to be removed when a bar crosses)

I hope you can help me!

if(CurrentBar > 20) // added by jabeztrading -added because was acting funding in the beginning
{
DrawRay("tag1"+CurrentBar, strength, currentSwingHigh, 0, currentSwingHigh, Color.Red,DashStyle.Solid,2); //added by NW
levelsQueue.Enqueue(CurrentBar); // store bar that level occurred - added by nw

if(levelsQueue.Count == swingstoShow+2)
{

levelsQueue.Dequeue();
RemoveDrawObject("tag1"+levelsQueue.Peek());

}
}

You can't "stop" a ray object. A ray extends infinitely. If a new condition happens you should just remove the old irrelevant object and draw a new relevant one. To do this, just use the same tag name as the old object and it will replace the old one with a new one.

swingmodified2.cs (16.6 KB, 40 views)
swingmodified2.cs gives an error on compiling,
Is it possible to correct it? I assume that the indicator will plot extended swing lines from the swing highs and lows to the current bar, ie all the way to Y axis.

Have you found an easy solution to this Swing Indicator lines extending till Y axis? Would highly appreciate if you can share it if you have found it .
