support my work
This indicator is FREE. I hope it helps you implement the PowerX system easily and more profitably than manually looking at a series of indicators and doing calculations by hand or using a spreadsheet. In addition, I've tried to use 'best practices' where possible in the code and have commented as much of it as extensively as I felt was practical. That way, you can more easily take the source code and make changes to fit your trading style and goals. In addition, I think it's a pretty good learning resource for figuring out how to translate your own trading ideas into useful and reliable indicators within the NinjaTrader platform.
If you like AB-PowerX and would like to support future development and improvements or perhaps even more advanced add-ons, then donations are always appreciated! The link below will forward to PayPal. Thanks for your support!

previous releases
Version 2.6.1
BUGFIX release
- dynamic properties now updating correctly in the indicator properties box
Version 2.6 had an issue where selecting certain properties failed to update the properties box to hide/display related properties. This is due to the namespace change and has been resolved in this release.

Version 2.6
maintenance release
- change namespace so indicator appears under the shared ABTrading folder instead of its own ABPowerX folder
- update license to reference new domain

- clean-up code and align with naming conventions
No functional difference versus Version 2.5 If you are running version 2.5, there is no need to update. If you are running an earlier version or are upgrading from an earlier version, please use this version.

Version 2.5
realtime updating
- calculations are done 'on price change' so that markers display in realtime
- fix: old levels reappearing in 'most recent only' drawing mode
- fix: trigger levels treated as stops as opposed to limits
- performance: remove previously required delays for bar counting
- performance: remove calculation delay waiting for 'min bars'
- updated code formatting
- reference online license location in description
BREAKING CHANGE: This indicator is now calculated 'on price change' (enforced). It very likely will not work in any other mode including the previous default of 'on bar close'. Please check and update your templates! This was necessary to facilitate the upcoming strategy integrations planned for version 3.0 to allow for automated testing and execution.

Version 2.1
user requests
- option to include commissions in position sizing and risk calculations (checkbox in parameters grid)
- option to trade a fixed number of contracts instead of only based on risk vs. account balance
- allow signals without a neutral bar beforehand (i.e. directly switch from long to short signal and vice-versa)
- even more code documentation for those following along with development!
Sorry for not getting to these requests sooner! Please please please keep making suggestions :-)
I recommend recreating or at least reviewing any templates you saved using previous versions. Some options have changed and a few have been added. Failing to recreate templates will not cause instability like with the upgrade to Version 2.0.

Version 2.0
code-cleanup and DLL distribution
- add detail to target labels so they match the risk labels
- remove straggling calls to NinjaTrader Draw class
- move all indicators to custom class
- labels and line-vectors in their own classes
The major practical change in this release is matching the target labels to the risk labels so they display comparable information. For those using this as a coding resource or following along with the development from a mainly programming perspective, moving everything into discreet classes falls inline with best-practices and makes future modifications * much* easier.
Starting with this version all distribution will be in the form of a DLL and not readable source-code. Source-code is of course still available and always will be. Links are in the menu bar and via the git-repo. DLLs allow for easier updating and code protection from accidental changes within NinjaTrader. Installation instructions on the main page have been updated accordingly.
You MUST recreate any custom templates (including your 'default' template) after updating to this version! Failing to do so may result in NinjaTrader instability. Sorry for any inconvenience.
