I could not find the settings you mentioned in the above post, can you please post a screenshot?

Guys, we had a request for adding an option to the DMIOscillator to toggle if the bars should be painted or not, allowing for better usage with our custom studies that would attempt to change the bar color dynamically. The changed study allowing this is attached.

Hello Trader333,

Thanks for your post.

You would need to review the code of the indicator and look for the statements that begin with DrawArrow and add the statements for the market analyzer output.

To assist I have modified the DMI indicator in post 13 and commented the lines that were added to facilitate output to the market analyzer.

In summary, I added a data series and captured the signals (next to the drawArrow statements) in the dataseries and made the dataseries publicly available. The example indicator can be added to the Market Analyzer and the plot to show is labeled DmiSEArrows. +1 = Up Arrow, -1 = Down Arrow, 0 = no arrow.

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Where do I place these in the code. I am not a programmer but need a hint

Hello trader333,

Thank you for your response.

The indicator would need a value from a plot that could be accessed from the indicator Column in the Market Analyzer. A Plot that indicates a 1 for up arrow, -1 for down arrow and 0 for no arrow drawn.

Here is the screenshot. Arrows are drawn by dmistocahsticextreme indicator, but valid signal occurs when
arrow happen to be when dmioscillator is also coincide with arrow.

Hello trader333,

Thank you for your response.

Can you provide a screenshot of the arrows on the chart?

[trader333]

I see values too but what I am looking for is to see when arrow appears in analyzer window, based on the strategy presented by author. For example if I run a list of sp500 on daily bars I want to see how many stocks have valid signal on that day.

Hello trader333,

Thank you for your post.

I am not sure I understand your request. I have added the indicator to the Market Analyzer and it provides the values. Are you asking how to add an indicator to the Market Analyzer in general?

[trader333]

I am wondering if this indicator in post# 13 can be used in market analyzer , if yes, how do we do it?

Fixed DMI Oscillator

Bump.

I asked NT support to fix the DMI Oscillator, giving it a black zero line as well as changing the histogram to blue when trending above zero.

Matthew got the fix in within a few short hours.

Looks great!

DMI color

I downloaded the oscillator. When I look at the parameters I can set the up color as green and the down color as red -- I am hoping this means when the DMI is >0 then green and when <0 then red. However the bar color seems to be determined by the setting under Plots where there is only the option to make the bars all one color. Is there any way to make the coloring the way I want? The thing is that sometimes at zero line crosses the bars are quite small and it's easier to see for sure with a color change. Here are links to the image of my current Ninja chart and an image of the TOS chart I have been using. Thanks

Ah, OK I see the candles are changing color with the DMI -- it would still be nice to have the DMI itself change and might (?) want the option to have regular candle coloring if that could be an optional feature???
