What’s new

– MZpackStrategyBase.OnEntryPatternValidated() is virtual. Always call base method in overrider.
See how to implement one pattern validation per bar. This might be useful for OnEachTick signals tree.

public class MyStrategy : MZpack.NT8.Algo.Strategy
{
int validatedBarIdx = -1;

public MyStrategy(string name, MyNinjaStrategy ninjaStrategy) : base(name, ninjaStrategy)
{
}

public override void OnEntryPatternValidated(Pattern sender, DateTime time)
{
validatedBarIdx = MZpackStrategy.CurrentBar;

base.OnEntryPatternValidated(sender, time);
}

public override bool OnValidateEntryPatternFilter(object e, MarketDataSource source)
{
if (MZpackStrategy.CurrentBar == validatedBarIdx) // One pattern validation per bar
return false;

return true;
}
}

– Fix. Position.CancelClose() terminates the strategy.

What’s new

– MZpack 3.18.3 core
– Added Signal.GetDisplayName() method to display signal name in the Log and in pattern Dashboard legend:

public virtual string GetDisplayName() => string.IsNullOrEmpty(Name) ? this.GetType().ToString() : Name;

Override it in custom signals to display some usefull info about your signal
Example from built-in BarMetricsSignal class

public class BarMetricsSignal : Signal
{
BarMetrics barMetrics;
MinMax minMax;
int ago, ticks;

public override string GetDisplayName() => $"{barMetrics} {minMax} {ticks} ticks";

mzFootprint
– Fix. Render issue with S/R Zones

What’s new

– Added Ninja ATM support. See MZpackStrategyBase.PositionManagement, MZpackStrategyBase.NinjaTraderATM_TemplateName properties
Note, that there are some limitations for Ninja ATM Strategies. Read more here
https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/using_atm_strategies.htm
– Added Conjunction logical node
– Added new state ‘Not Calculated’ for Dashboard cells
– Added pop-up hint for Dashboard cells
– Added Strategy.IsOpeningPositionEnabled property
– Added Range.IsInSession property. Set IsInSession to True if pattern must be validated inside the current session only.
– Action can return SignalDirection.None which terminates validating of the signals/filters
– ControlPanel is disabled while loading market data
– Fix: issue with adding custom items to MZpack ControlPanel

• Added ICandle interface for easy handling such values like OCHL, Body, Size, Upper/LowerWick, IsBullish, IsBearish, IsDoji
• Added MZpackStrategyBase.GetCandle(int ago) method that returns ICandle object
• Added BarMetricsSignal class. This class helps to implement some intra bar rules based on Price Action
