Fibonacci text plot

[Cronosis]

Hello, I´ve seen some people asking about this, and some responses saying that this would be added to future devlopments for some years now but with no solution.

Is there a way to add custom text to the Fib retracement indicator? Maybe someone can provide the code for Ninjascript to do so. Thank you very much!!!

Hello Cronosis,

Welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!

Unfortunately, this has not been implemented at this time, and I would not have any resources to share with you.

Please note, we receive many requests and cannot reasonably implement all requested features or changes. Interest is tracked internally and if enough interest is tracked, it would be weighed against how feasible it would be to make those changes to consider implementing, so we cannot offer an ETA or promise of fulfillment.

When new features are implemented, they will be listed in the Release Notes page of the Help Guide. The ID number may be different than the internal feature request tracking ID, but the description of the feature will let you know if that feature has been implemented.

If this important that you have this coded now, you can also contact a professional NinjaScript Consultant who would be eager to create or modify this script at your request or assist you with your script. The NinjaTrader Ecosystem has affiliate contacts who provide educational as well as consulting services. I will have a member of our NinjaTrader Ecosystem team follow up with you with a list of affiliate consultants who would be happy to create this script or any others at your request or provide one on one educational services.

If by "adding text" you mean levels and %s, yes there is a go-around ( NinjaTrader_ChelseaB - Correct me if wrong please). You can create a Fib template that includes your choice of levels, text, and location of the text, etc, and save the template with a name of your choice. Then if you want to code a fib in an indicator simply use the following with your templateName for the last parameter:

Draw.FibonacciRetracements(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, int startBarsAgo, double startY, int endBarsAgo, double endY, bool isGlobal, string templateName)

Cheers!

Thank you very much for your response! What I mean is this, I use a method that determines my entries, stops and exits based on fibo levels, what I would like is the possibility to draw a fibo and have the text “entry, stop, take profit 1-2-3 in the levels that I use.

I can avena template with the levels, which is what I have now, but I haven’t found a way to add the text.

You can certainly write an indicator to draw custom fibs levels ( or simple lines) and text as UI or even based on meeting certain conditions. I recall that there are several example indicators around that simply draw entry, targets, and stops lines on the right edge with user input. Do a search you might find one and modify it to your liking..

Hello aligator,

I may have some confusion. This is to add custom text to the lines on the fibonacci? Like the sentence "hello custom text"?

[Cronosis]

I think I may have some confusion as well. To express myself better I’m attaching an image from the mt4 platform that has this functionality where you can add custom text to predetermined level that will plot when you draw the fib retracement

Obviously, this is not a Fibonacci, just some horizontal lines. But there are several drawing tools and indicators on NinjaTrader and Futures.io that are not exactly the same but pretty much do similar thing. Examples are RiskReward and RectangleWithPriceTarget in indicators and drawing tools. These have entry, target and stops. Just do searches and find them.

If you can program in Ninja then you can customize them as needed, otherwise you may want to hire someone to do it for you.

Also, I recommend to post the MT4 indicator file here and on Futures.io, there might be some motivated people to convert it to NT8 for free.

Aligator, thank you again for your response. That is, in fact, a Fibonacci. As I mentioned is the default Fibonacci indicator in the MT4/5 platform, it allows you to edit not only the levels but also to add text such as the "Entry", "Stop Loss" and the "RR".

The reason why I asked specifically about Fibonacci is becasue my method is based on these levels as entries, stops and tps. Unfortunately I dont know how to program in Ninja but I will try to ask in futures.io if someone can code it.

Thank you very much!

Sorry, I did not read anywhere this was the MT4 "default Fibonacci indicator." I thought it was a custom indicator.

NinjaTrader is not open source and only they can modify it. You would need a custom Fib indicator to draw what you need. Good Luck,,

Its ok, Ive postes in Futures.io to see if someone can helo me, I appreciate your input!
