Ultimate Channel
TASC = Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities
TASC magazine May 2024 issue
The
ultimate channel and
ultimate bands indicators, which are described in the article “Ultimate Channels And Ultimate Bands” in this issue by John Ehlers, are available for download at the following link for NinjaTrader 8:
Once the file is downloaded, you can import the indicator into NinjaTrader 8 from within the control center by selecting Tools → Import → NinjaScript Add-On and then selecting the downloaded file for NinjaTrader 8.
You can review the indicator source code in NinjaTrader 8 by selecting the menu New → NinjaScript Editor → Indicators folder from within the control center window and selecting the file.
Sample charts demonstrating the two indicators are shown below:
kvak, mrtools, or any of the master coders here, would it be possible to port this indicator to MT4/MT5?
The UltimateChannel2 pdf comes with Pinescript code for TradingView and I can't imagine it would be too difficult to convert it into MQL4/MQL5 code.
I'm sure PineCodersTASC on TradingView will eventually publish the code since they do so for every monthly magazine's featured indicator, but I've included the code to
Ehler's Ultimate Smoother that was published in the April 2024 issue.
Hopefully that makes things easier for you!
