IB Low — red, solid
IB Mid — goldenrod, dashed

Configurable lookback — 0 to as many days as needed
Each session labelled and colour-coded
Works on any timeframe
Perfect for backtesting and session review

// What it does

Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

Built by a trader, for traders. Every feature exists because it earns its place on the chart.

Automatic IB Detection

Captures the high and low of the Initial Balance window (configurable start/end time) and draws horizontal lines the moment the window closes — no manual input required.

Extension Projections

50% and 100% extension levels drawn automatically above and below the IB range. These are your breakout targets — plotted clean, extended to the right.

Midpoint Line

The 50% midline of the IB range is a key mean-reversion and equilibrium reference. Drawn automatically as a secondary reference line inside the zone.

IB Zone Shading

Subtle fill between IB high and low so the range reads as a zone at a glance, not just two separate lines. Opacity fully configurable.

Session Auto-Reset

Resets and redraws every session automatically. Works correctly across daylight saving changes, instrument rolls, and gaps in data.

Full Customisation

Line colours, widths, dash styles, zone opacity, and IB window times all configurable through the standard NinjaTrader properties panel.

// Full control

Every label, line, and
level is customisable.

Nothing is hard-coded. Every visual element is exposed in the NinjaTrader properties panel — colours, styles, opacities, times, and label formats are all yours to configure.

Fully configurable label system

Label format uses token syntax — {name} {price} {pct} — so you choose exactly what prints on the chart and in what order. All extension levels (50% through 450% in both directions) can be individually toggled on or off, labelled, and given custom names.

Core settings & base line styling

Initial Balance Pro properties panel — IB timing, zone fill, base line colours and extension level styling

Extension levels & label configuration

Initial Balance Pro extension levels panel — per-level visibility, custom labels, right-side label settings

IB start and end time — set to any session for any instrument

Extend lines to next IB period, or limit to the IB window only

Show previous day IB levels — configurable lookback count

Zone fill colour and opacity (0–100)

High, mid, and low line colour, style (solid/dash/dot), and width — independently

Extension groups (high side / low side) — colour, dash style, opacity

Each extension level (±50% through ±450%) individually toggled and labelled

Custom label text per level — name them whatever suits your system

Right-side labels with font, margin, and Y-offset control

Why not just use the free ones on UserShare?

Because they don't exist. There is no decent, clean Initial Balance indicator freely available for NinjaTrader 8. Others charge £50+ for this. This is £9.99.

Built by an active futures trader using the indicator daily on GC and ES. Every line and property exists because it earns its place on the chart.
