Watch this video on how to download the files
or follow the instructions below:
How to add these files/walls:
. 1. Copy or Download file and put it in …documents/NinjaTrader7/templates
. 2. Go to your chart and add the indicator “Price level tool” to your chart.
. 3. Open the indicator and go to the section that says file. Select the file out of the drop down list and click ok in the lower left of your chart.
. 4. The files can only hold 30 levels, so, because these walls “hold their value,” and the price changes a great deal, there will be more walls than can fit in one indicator. You will need to add the indicator in again and load file B … and then again for C as more walls are added. In summary, for each additional file, go through all the steps again only choosing a different file from the drop down.
Went through and plotted walls for YM starting November 1, 2017. I ran market replay using a SEES OP with OD GRAY template with cluster threshold 1000. Nov 1 thru Dec 6 was 12-17 contract. I originally switched to 03-18 contract from Dec 7 onward, but volume was so low I decided to run 12-17 contract up through Dec 13 as well, just to see how it looked. Volume was definitely with 12-17 on Dec 7, but by Friday Dec 8, the later contract had more volume.
I wasn’t sure what metric Lori has used to designate a “very strong” level versus a “normal” wall, so I just color coded based on the number of dotted swing levels that plotted within 3 ticks of the wall.
0 swing Gainsboro
1 swing PowderBlue
2 swings Gold
3 swings Violet

Was this thread meant to be updated more frequently with files to load for the walls? I load the files for NQ that are posted here, but wasn’t sure if there were going to be more recent files to load.
Also, I think Lori mentioned in the webinar on the walls post that the team was working on making it so that the charts autoplotted walls rather than having to load these files. Was just curious if there was an update on that.
