TBR
Add a performance option to limit the use of _native_ drawing objects to the last X historical bars
Improve turn zone creation logic to better adhere to “Pivot high/low within x bars filter”
Improve internal caching (not performance)
Fix “Change bar min size (ticks. 0 = don’t care)” was incorrectly using pts, not ticks to validate the bar range
2024.11.27
Add Minimum turn zone width option. This ensures all zones will be created at least this width, from high to low.
Change Turnzone to include the high/low of the subsequent bar if it spikes the high/low of the zone before closing in the opposite direction (this ensures the zone covers the entire range including any wick poke)
Change BIAS output value (TrendSeries) so that if StickyMode & Use trend strength for BIAS are both enabled, the trend strength is properly used for the BIAS. Stickmode is not intended for use with trend strength, but if both were selected, trend strength could be disregarded
Change BIAS output would try to use trend analysis if ‘…use for BIAS’ was enabled, even if Trend analysis was disabled
Improve label text on turn zones (if enabled)
Improve performance of code
Misc This release also includes the latest API version (you can disregard if you do not use it)
2024.08.01
Add sample HA strategy
Change to not check showBarsNullStyleWarning if there is no chart (indie is being used in a chartless strategy)
2024.07.25
Improve Volume Gradient Style bars. The mean volumes will now also be recalculated when scrolling the chart, even with data disconnected. This makes the colours relative to the bars/volume current displayed on the chart, rather than just the most recent bars.
Improve Velocity options. Previously, highlighting velocity bars with a colour was the only option. You can now use a colour gradient per the Volume Gradient Style bars to reflect the velocity of a bar. This is for use on non-time-based bars. Lighter bars are faster bars. Darker bars are slower bars. As per the volume options, this feature is relative to the bars displayed on the chart. Like the volume option, it adapts to the current market conditions and also allows for true historical chart viewing.
Add SMA smoothing option, to further smooth a smoothed series. This is helpful for some smoothing options like VWMA that still provide fairly volatile plots.
Add Volume Weighted Moving Average to possible HA smoothing options
Add ‘Only Show Current’ option for ‘Mark Change Bars’ in ‘Trend Analysis’ section. This limits the display of the arrows to the last 2 trend changes only. Useful if you are displaying a lot of bars and don’t want a ton of arrow clutter on the chart.
Fix bug in Turn Zones where “Pivot high/low within x bars filter” was not working correctly in some situations
Fix a bug where if in HADelta mode and the option to highlight flip bars was enabled and the flip bar occurred within the first few bars, the indicator might fail to display.
Add a new momentum option for turn zone creation
Improve ‘do not create zone inside zone and overlapping zones’ detection
Add showDBDTWicksTickTolourance tolerance option for double top/bottom detection, to allow X ticks wiggle of tolerance
Improve Some changes to turn zones. The option ‘convert broken zones’ has now changed to ‘convert broken zones with bar closes through level’. Colours for the zone will also change (a new zone is now added from the break). This is useful as zones that are rapidly closed through are typically retested. A wick poking through a zone will not flip the zone (it is still a rejection).
Fix If ‘use trend analysis algo to create turn zones’ was enabled, but ‘Mark Change Bars’ was disabled, turn zones would fall back to the default method.
Add Open only smoothing option
Fix velocity bars timing and painting over multiple bars
Change public velocity series now returns avg ms time per bar over the number of bars measured
Improve performance of zone management (when Turn zones are turned on)
Improve performance of code
Update version of NewtonSoft.Json.dll
2023.04.10
Make Bull/Bear trend strength show if the option is enabled and bars are turned off (hidden)
2023.04.07
Fix the bull/bear bar announcement when running in HADelta mode
Change of behaviour – If ShowBars is turned off, BIAS backgrounds will still paint (this is the intended operation)
2023.03.19
Note – you should be using Ninjatrader version 8.0.27.0 or above for this release (Ninjatrader changed to a 64bit-only model), however, at this time, we cannot recommend using the 8.1.x.x branch. 8.0.27.1 is the last known recommended version.
Added ‘Delta fast’ example indicator settings template as an example of how you might use delta mode (to be used in a separate chart panel)
Fix bug where indicator would not load if using Daily bars and SylvainVervoort HA mode.
Added first ‘Edge Analysis’ tool. Draws triangles around areas when bias flips long/short/short/long.
Added a new, public “DeltaSeries” for use with custom codes and the Ninjatrader Strategy Builder. This will report the Delta values. The series will only be populated if the indicator is in HADelta mode. In order to use in the strategy builder code, you may need to unlock your code. The code is exposed as a series, NOT a plot. This is because a plot would simply consume too many Ninajtrader resources.
Added 3 new line options for HADelta mode. A zero line, an upper, and a lower line.
Fix vertical alignment so Trend strength shows in indicator panes other than the primary chart window
Add trend direction arrows to the Trend Strength meter
The trend Strength meter now works in Delta mode.
Add bar announcements. This can announce completed bull, bear bars, indecision bars, etc. (via voice alerts)
Add a ctrl-mouse click option to draw a rectangle (zone) around the bar by clicking it.
Fix bar width adjustment not being used in MiniChart mode.
AmaEHMA was removed from smoothing options.
Other minor code changes and improvements.
