I am enclosing screenshots for NinjaTrader 8 Desktop versions 8.1.1.7 and 8.1.3.1.
I have coded an NT8 indicator script based on Rob Booker’s Intraday Pivot Points indicator:
Additionally, I have attached the RobBookerPivotPoint5.cs indicator file.
The issue is that the indicator displays the correct intraday pivot lines in NinjaTrader 8 version 8.1.1.7. However, even though the settings are the same and the script was compiled identically for both instances, NinjaTrader 8 version 8.1.3.1 calculates the wrong intraday pivot lines. Since the code and settings are identical, I am wondering why these discrepancies occur. The indicator compiles and runs without errors.
From my perspective, everything was performed as expected. However, I am concerned that if I install the newest NT8 Desktop version, it might still calculate and display the lines incorrectly. I have already consulted different AI solutions but, thus far, have not found a resolution. I believe the problem may be due to a settings configuration. I’ve compared the NT8 version 8.1.1.7 intraday pivot lines with those on TradingView, and the lines in version 8.1.1.7 are indeed correct.
I wouldn’t be reporting this if the code failed on every platform, but as I’ve stated, it runs without issue on the older version. It’s the newer version where things go wrong.
My guess is that it has something to do with the session start/end times or the Data Series settings in NT8—perhaps something changed when the CME extended trading hours. If an NT8 expert looked at my code, they’d probably fix it in an instant. For me, it’ll take forever, if I can ever figure it out at all. I simply lack the necessary platform information.
Could you please provide any assistance regarding this issue?
Many thanks,
Robert P.
