Much needed option for Renko timeframe

[traderjh]

Hello NT Team,

Ninjatrader is a great product!

Currently, every first Renko bar is printed at the beginning of a session based on open price.

I suggest an addition of option to Renko timeframe menu to let the first Renko bar of the chart to be printed at the first open price. Then the subsequent of Renko bars would be printed evenly out based on previous bar's closing(ignoring session ending) in the entire chart.

Another suggestion is the next Renko bar not to be aligned in with the previous bar(s).

Doable? Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you,
-traderjh
