SBGTrading

There's a very usable tool for backtesting any strategy in NinjaTrader...it's called ProphetViewer, and available at Prophet Viewer |

Right now, the stocks are listed in the platform, but to get data for them, you need to connect to Yahoo (daily data only) or eSignal (intraday data), or TradeStation (intraday data). Kinetick also supports intraday stock data, but it is similar to eSignal in price. I have one or two other videos on NinjaTrader...but not terribly interesting...one just shows how to import an indicator into the platform...let me know if you need that one. NinjaTrader itself has a good number of videos in their help docs. They also run a large number of training webinars every day of the week.

If you need help connecting to the lifetime free Gain spot FX feed in NinjaTrader, here's a short video that explains the process: TechSmith | Screencast.com, online video sharing, K_SettingUpGainDatafeed Also, I failed to mention that you can send TradeStation live data directly to your NT platform. So if you have TradeStation, this is a good option for papertrading. One other excellent option for papertrading is NinjaTrader does have a Market Replay datafeed...this is live data that has been recorded and can be played-back at your convenience. In NT7, we'll soon be able to download these historical replay files on-demand. Right now, you have to personally record the files during live market action in order to have them for historical replay. Finally, NT does have a Simulated datafeed...very handy for papertrading and/or testing your indicators or strategies (since you can control the direction and strength of the simulated trend to vet out your code).

I'm a certified NinjaScript developer, and been using the NT platform for many years. The platform itself is completely free, no limitation (except that you can't submit live trades to a broker on the free platform). There is a free spot currency feed from Gain Capital...been using it for years. The Zen-Fire datafeed is free for the first 30 days, they're becoming more restrictive on that...30-days and you're out, no exceptions. There is a new data provider named Kinetick and they're relatively inexpensive, but you do need to pay exchange fees in addition to the Kinetick charge. But, Kinetick is supplying intraday stock data, which is a first for NinjaTrader. Let me know if you have any additional questions! Ben L. affordableindicators.com Back to the Future Trading

Hi Blu-Ray, I was looking through the code and I think I found a possible mistake. Can you verify for Plot21 and Plot22 in the file "VSA No Demand No Supply.txt". Both "if" statements for those plots contain the condition: (H[3]-L[3])<(H[3]-L[3]) which will always be evaluated as FALSE. Perhaps this is a typo??? Thanks, Ben
