Hello larrye,

Thank you for your post.

Here is an indicator that will allow users color or shade time regions on a chart in NinjaTrader 8.

Color Regions NinjaTrader Ecosystem
Here is a basic guideline of how to Import NinjaScripts.
To import NinjaScripts you will need the original .zip file.
To Import

1. Download the NinjaScripts to your desktop, keep them in the compressed .zip file.
2. From the Control Center window select the menu tools> import> Import NinjaScript Addon
3. Select the downloaded .zip file
4. NinjaTrader will then confirm if the import has been successful.

Critical - Specifically for some NinjaScripts, it will prompt that you are running newer versions of @SMA, @EMA, etc. and ask if you want to replace, press 'No'
Once installed, you may add the bar type to a chart by:

• Right click your chart and select data series > type > Select the bar type from the list on the left > New > OK

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