    ShadowTraders Indicators for NinjaTrader 8

    Good day NinjaTrader support community, can anyone shed some light on the ShadowTraders Indicators for NinjaTrader 8? I am unable to locate any ShadowTraders indicators in the NinjaTrader Ecosystem.

    I, as with many others was introduced to NinjaTrader via ShadowTraders. When NinjaTrader 8 was released I chose to stay with 7, thinking I would update to 8 later. Now that I have chosen to move to NinjaTrader 8, when I imported my ShadowTraders indicators into 8, the indicators from 7 appear not to be compatible with 8. Can anyone provide feedback on whether those indicators for 8 are still available, and where I might get them?

    Context: Using NinjaTrader 7, configured with various ShadowTraders indicators I’ve been chasing a move in the ES market for years with moderate success. I could see the move developing, however because the data moves so quickly, I found it nearly impossible to review all the indicators, then isolate the optimal time & price to place my in.

    After a couple year break, last summer I fired the software back up and decided to develop a series of algorithms to track the data from this move I’ve been chasing. After creating these algorithms, I began running historical data through them, lo and behold I found a pattern, a pattern that only automation could successfully navigate. I then began researching how best to turn these algorithms into an automated strategy and decided to stay with NinjaTrader. So, I began teaching myself C#, downloaded NinjaTrader 8, and then began the development process. It was only then that I realized my indicator conflict.

    Hello JR-6810,

    Indicators that were developed for NinjaTrader 7 would need to be re-built in order to function with NinjaTrader 8. There are a number of code-breaking changes with NinjaTrader 8, which means that scripts cannot just be imported over directly from NinjaTrader 7.

    ShadowTraders was developed by a third-party company that was not affiliated with NinjaTrader, LLC. Unfortunately, this third-party company never developed a version of their indicators for NinjaTrader 8 and as I understand, they are no longer supporting these products.

      Hi Christopher,

      Thanks for the response.

      I thought ShadowTraders had converted their v7 indicators to v8, but because I stayed on 7 this is only a speculation. If they did, I was hoping to find someone that had a copy and could post them for the community. I was looking to reduce my development efforts, but because my algorithms rely heavily on the ShadowTraders indicators, it’s looking like a re-build of those indicators is in order.

      Thanks again.

        Hello JR-6810,

        Thank you for your reply.

        I was not aware that ShadowTraders converted any of their indicators for NinjaTrader 8. If they did, only ShadowTraders would be able to distribute these indicators. NinjaTrader does not have access to distribution for any third-party indicators.
