Hull moving average color change

[bankavaselina]

Hi!

Can someone please help me create an add-on for Hull moving average indicator. I want it to change color when changing direction

Hi bankavaselina, thanks for your note.

You can use the PlotBrushes array to change the color of the plot per-bar. I attached an example copy of the HMA. To add this, copy the attached .cs file into Documents\NinjaTrader 8\bin\Custom\Indicators.

Best regards.

okay, I'm confused. How do I make this show up in my indicators box? I copied it like you said, but can't figure out what to do next

Hi bankavaselina,

Make sure to go into the NinjaScript editor and press F5 to compile. It should show up in the indicators menu.

Hi Chris, this HMA color change by slope worked great. Would there be any chance you can do the same for the Weighted Moving Average? Thank you in advance

Hello dmilton,
You can use IsRising & IsFalling conditions to change color of any moving average. Sharing my custom indicator hope it helps, you can select the MA type: 1 - EMA, 2 - HMA, 3 - SMA, 4 - TMA, 5 - TEMA, 6 - WMA, you can also change the slope colors.

Thank you so much!!! It's what I was looking for.

One question, can I program a strategy in the color change?

Hello miguelisert,

Welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!

I would recommend that you add a plot to the indicator to use a signal. When sloping up and setting the up color, set the plot to 1. When sloping down and setting the down color, set the plot to -1.

Below is a link to an example in the User App Share.
