New MP Software for Ninjatrader

Recommended Posts

You're right mezameo the fin-alg indicator looks like a sound investment, and we won't see anything like it for free for a long time, if ever.

Too bad that some things Investor R/T can do are still impossible on NT.

In addition to Dalton there is Don Jones at Cisco-futures.com. Don has been around along time (I believe that one of the co-authors, Jones, on Dalton's book is his son). There is a tremendous amount of information available free on his website and he offers a course for a reasonable fee. If you look at his site you will note that MP is a lot more than what is usually referenced--including 5-day, 10-day balances, etc... There is also updated data available only from cbot which identifies market participants from Institutional to Retail. Several well known and successful traders have been tutored here. Few of the MP charting programs include everything that you can get from cisco. Email or call Don and find out. I use Ninja and the Algo MP addon: it is better than Sierra or Ensign... by far. I don't pay $7 which is what cbot actually charges, but no one has asked. Market Delta includes MP as well. Frank Butera at BalanceTrader.com teaches another method which offers short term and swing trading ideas; he also runs a room in ensign's echat. Frank's method has a lot of merit and it is a reasonable price. Also note that the Algo MP addon can be split and merged with other days--the longer the market is in balance the more likely a better breakout. Frank's levels don't necessarily correspond to the Value Areas in the conventional sense (even Don at cisco often breaks down the VALUE areas into percentage parts, but I've found it to be very helpful. btw, Dalton's website puts out a weekly newsletter.

 

(I have have no affiliation with any of these parties at present. I prefer to learn and go my own way)

note that NinjaTrader Charts are free and you can purchase Fin-Alg MP at a reasonable price, utilize "opentick" data for free or very little, depending upon market. NT has a forum for developing and picking up free indicators and advanced order placement, etc... get your levels from MP and utilize whatever order book you like (adds redundancy) as "opentick" is not as fast or reliable as say TT, etc. You avoid the $20 cbot fee this way too. I usually run one data feed per pc, but not always necessary. My monthly fees for charts and data is now $5.00, where I once paid around $200...

Hi,

 

Just to let you know that I upgraded to NT 6.5 and had problems with NT crashing when changing the time frame on my MP charts once in a while. This is after I have purchased fin-alg MP.

 

Does anyone who has upgraded have the same problem?

 

thx.

"opentick" - you mean ZenFire?

dhivyalakshmy,

You can start by reading market in profile. go to http://www.cisco-futures.com

Imho it is not that hard to lean but putting it into practice takes some time.

I tried ninja with finag and it worked as was advertised. But I find I can do more with ensign windows. also check out http://www.enthios.com he post live trades setups using MP most days. also ensingsoftware has chat rooms with people using Mp and other stuff. try the bline room. its free. hope it helps trading is hard work that you got to love.

I have been following this thread from its start with interest. I am currently using eSignal w/ Market Profile and am less then impressed with their charts. As a result I was in the process of switching over to NinjaTrader until I looked at Investor/RT (as a result of this thread). Whilst NT may be free to start you must pay a license fee ($795 for single broker/$995 multi) if you go active. Though I initially liked NT I have had a couple instances of it crashing. The last time this happened it deleted any indicators I had off my charts - I was not impressed. This meant I had to rebuild them.

 

I've just started to evaluate Investor/RT and it certainly looks to be a powerful piece of software. All the indicators you could possibly want appear to be there. Setting them up the way want seems to be far more intuitive then NT.

 

I'm also definitely impressed with the looks of Market Profile. For anyone who has done Don Jones' Market Profile course at http://www.cisco-futures.com the Market Profile package in Investor/RT looks to mirror his material very closely. For this reason alone I am leaning strongly to Investor.

 

I would much appreciate feedback from anyone who is currently using Investor/RT and how you find the software.

Nice new MP for Ninja...its getting there at least.

dValueArea in the file sharing part of the ninja forum.

 

Looks pretty nice although it seems to be doing some weird split as far as having 2 profiles a day.

 

Good catch. Though it is probably worth repeating that the FinAlg package is absolutely excellent for the couple of hundred bucks (or whatever it is) that it costs. Mind you this looks good.....the big question will it work correctly on historical data? Yeah i know wait for NT 7.0.

 

Edit: looking closely at he chart I would guess yes....looks like it is averaging volume across a bar.

True, I don't want to take anything away from Finalg. That is certainly the king for MP on ninja. The only reason I haven't bought it is because you can't modify the code. It does suck his stuff is all locked because he certainly appears to be the ninja master.

There is a new MP type indicator in the ninja forums, it uses either TPO, Volume on Close, or Volume weighted TPO, and plots in history and also shows Value Area and POC, and shows session, and off session profiles.

 

This is the only way I can figure to link you to it.

Dean, thanks for posting this. The example picture on the Ninja forum is too hard see for any detailed examination of the indicator. When I clicked on the picture, I got a download box for a zip file (for downloading the code, I presume). I was hoping to see a bigger picture. Any chance you could post a better, or at least bigger, example?

Thanks, Tasuki

    • Date: 29th March 2024. GBPUSD Analysis: The Pound Trades Higher But For How Long? The global Stocks Markets are closed due to Easter Friday (Good Friday). The NASDAQ continued to follow the sideways trend while other indices again rose. The SNP500 reaches an all-time high, but the NASDAQ remains under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple. The Euro continues to trade lower against all major currencies including the US Dollar, Euro and Japanese Yen. The British Pound is the best performing currency during this morning’s Asian session. However, investors are largely fixing their attention on this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. GBPUSD – The Pound Trades Higher but For How Long? The GBPUSD is slightly higher than the day’s open and is primary due to the Pound’s strong performance. At the moment, the British Pound is increasing in value against all major currencies. However, the US Dollar Index is also trading 0.10% higher and for this reason there is a slight conflict here. If investors wish to avoid this conflict, the EURUSD is a better option. This is because, the Euro depreciating against the whole currency market avoiding the “tug-of-war” scenario. The GBPUSD is trading slightly lower than the 2-month’s average price and is trading at 49.10 on the RSI. For this reason, the price of the exchange is at a “neutral” level and is signalling neither a buy nor a sell. The day’s price action and future signals are possibly likely to be triggered by this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. Analysts expect the Core PCE Price Index to read 0.3% which is slightly lower than the previous month but will result in the annual figure remaining at 2.85%. The PCE rate is different to the inflation rate and the Fed aims for a rate between 1.5% to 2.00%. Therefore, even if the annual rate remains at 2.85%, as analysts expect, it would be too high for the Fed. If the rate increases, even if only slightly, the US Dollar can again renew bullish momentum and the stock market can come under pressure. This includes the SNP500. Investors are focused on the publication of data on the UK’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the last quarter of 2023: the quarterly figures decreased by 0.3%, and 0.2% over the past 12-months. This confirms the state of a shallow recession and the need for stimulation. The data, combined with a cooling labor market and a steady decline in inflation, increase the likelihood that the Bank of England will soon begin interest rate cuts. In the latest meeting the Bank of England representatives did not see any members vote for a hike. USA500 – The SNP500 Rises to New Highs, But Cannot Hold Onto Gains! The price of the SNP500 rises to an all-time high, before correcting 0.33% and ending the day slightly lower than the open price. Nonetheless, the index performs better than the NASDAQ which came under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple which hold a higher weight compared to the SNP500. For the SNP500, these 3 stocks hold a weight of 9.25%, whereas the 3 stocks make up 14.63% of the NASDAQ. The SNP500 is also supported by ExxonMobil’s gains due to higher energy prices. The market will remain closed on Friday due to Easter. However, the market will reopen on Monday for the US and investors can expect high volatility. Investors will also need to take into consideration how the PCE Price Index and the changed value of the US Dollar is likely to affect the stock market next week.
