convert Sierra indy to Ninja script

[NinjaTrader_JessicaP]

Hello Brian,

After reviewing the Heken Ashi indicator itself, I was able to determine that this particular indicator erases your data series' primary bars. If you are familiar with NinjaScript, the code that does this is (emphasis mine) :

[FONT=Courier New]
BarColorSeries.Set(Math.Max(0, CurrentBar + Math.Max(0, Displacement) + (CalculateOnBarClose ? 1 : 0)), [B]Color.Transparent[/B]);
   CandleOutlineColorSeries.Set(Math.Max(0, CurrentBar + Math.Max(0, Displacement) + (CalculateOnBarClose ? 1 : 0)), [B]Color.Transparent[/B]);[/FONT]

So it appears our options are as follows :

• Add another visible Heken Ashi indicator to panel 1 and treat this as your primary data series
• Modify the code for Heken Ashi on your system. The way I would recommend doing this is as follows :
  • Control Center -> Tools -> Edit NinjaScript -> HeikenAshi -> OK
  • Right-Click in the Editor -> Save As -> HeikenAshiNoErase -> OK
  • Change line 57 from
    {
    to
    { /*
  • Change line 63 from
    
    to
    */
  • I am including a C# file where I have done this all already. You can install it by copying it to your (My) Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom\Indicator folder, loading it through Control Center -> Edit NinjaScript -> HeikenAshiNoErase -> OK, and pressing F5
  • If you use this approach, you will use HeikenAshiNoErase instead of the built-in HeikenAshi indicator
  
  
• Use two charts

Please let us know if there is any other way we can help

cheers Jessica - works perfectly. Can be overlaid on main chart window candles or set in sub-window.

Thanks.
