AB-HoffmanIRB: Inventory Retracement Bars Indicator for NinjaTrader

AB-HoffmanIRB is a FREE indicator to mark Rob Hoffman's Inventory Retracement Bars on your NinjaTrader charts. Inventory Retracement Bars (IRBs), according to Hoffman, are points where a trend resumes once surpasssed. This indicator marks such bars clearly on your charts and includes a few additional features.

  • Markers are added to an invisible plot so they appear in the Data Box and can be used in other systems/strategies.

  • Markers can be toggled on/off to prevent cluttering your chart.

  • Entry and Stop lines can be drawn based on IRBs and automatically expire after a defined period or terminate when filled.

  • Built-in Exponential Moving Average filter included as per Rob Hoffman's suggested implementation:

    • Filter can be purely directional or based on calculated (NOT visual) Moving Average angle.
  • Approximated higher-timeframe additional Exponential Moving Average filter also included as per Rob Hoffman's suggested implementation.

  • All markers, lines and EMAs are fully customizable and can be toggled on/off.

  • Hoffman Trend indicator lines (series of moving averages) are included as a separate indicator which may be desirable instead of the built-in EMA filter(s).
