Glitch NinjaTrader Indicators

GlitchAnalyticsBridge (UI / trade chart)

Role

GlitchAnalyticsBridge is the chart-side analytics publisher for the Glitch AddOn visual assistant.

It runs on the trade chart, watches supported timeframes for one instrument, builds a structured market reading, colors bars by regime, and publishes into the AddOn analytics tab.

Identity

Type: NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.Indicators.GlitchAnalyticsBridge
Name: GlitchAnalyticsBridge
Overlay: true
Default calculation mode: price-change driven (bar coloring)
Scope: single instrument only — do not add secondary Data Series here

Public parameters

Parameter	Purpose
`NeutralBand`	Controls how wide the neutral zone is before bar color or signal label changes
`EnableBarColoring`	Enables visual regime coloring on the chart
`PublishToGlitchUi`	Controls whether the indicator publishes readings into the AddOn
`PublishIntervalMs`	Persists the publish cadence preference used by the indicator configuration surface
`IntraBarColoring`	Allows faster bar-color updates while a bar is still forming
`PredictiveBoost`	Adjusts how aggressively the signal reacts to developing context
`FlipHysteresis`	Reduces noisy direction flips around the neutral zone
`PerformanceMode`	Favors lighter runtime behavior where appropriate
`EnableOrderFlowLayer`	Optional order-flow contribution (default off for performance)
`OrderFlowBlend`	Controls how much the order-flow layer influences the final reading

Timeframes

Tracks 1m · 5m · 15m · 60m for the chart instrument. When publishing is enabled, missing series are added automatically.

Performance notes

Indicators initialize only on tracked minute series (not tick/order-flow slots).
Order flow is off by default; enable only with Order Flow+ and when you need it on the trade chart.

GlitchAiMarketIngest (AI / Hermes feed)

Role

GlitchAiMarketIngest is a separate, lightweight indicator for the operating-system rail.

Use it on a dedicated ingest chart (can be minimized) to publish multi-instrument readings into GlitchAnalyticsFeedBus for R03 market snapshots. It does not color bars and does not replace the UI bridge on the trade chart.

Identity

Type: NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.Indicators.GlitchAiMarketIngest
Name: GlitchAiMarketIngest
Overlay: false
Default calculation mode: OnBarClose
IsSuspendedWhileInactive = true

Operator setup

Open a separate ingest chart (not the trade chart) on MNQ 1m.
Apply GlitchAiMarketIngest.
Set Additional Instrument Roots to your basket (default MES,M2K) — the indicator calls AddDataSeries in Configure using the primary contract month (e.g. 09-26).
Leave Add Primary Timeframes off if the trade chart already runs GlitchAnalyticsBridge for MNQ MTF.

Confirm NT Output:

GlitchAiMarketIngest data loaded: 3 bar series, 3 instrument root(s): MNQ, MES, M2K.

Chart Data Series panels are optional for display; ingest series come from the parameter above.

Parameters

Parameter	Purpose
`AddPrimaryTimeframes`	When true, auto-adds 5m/15m/60m for the primary instrument only
`AdditionalInstrumentRoots`	Comma-separated roots to ingest via `AddDataSeries` (default `MES,M2K`)

Output

Publishes the same GlitchIndicatorReading shape the AddOn feed bus expects: price, ATR, ADX, RSI, simplified score/regime, session context. No order flow, no bar paint.

Shared feed bus

Both indicators publish through GlitchBridgeBusCompat → Glitch.UI.GlitchAnalyticsFeedBus. The AddOn snapshot writers (R03 market, R04 portfolio) read from the feed bus and export JSON under GlitchData/snapshots/.

Summary

Layer	Indicator	Chart	Instruments
UI / visual assistant	`GlitchAnalyticsBridge`	Trade chart	One (MNQ)
AI / Hermes ingest	`GlitchAiMarketIngest`	Separate ingest chart	Many via Data Series

That separation keeps the trade chart responsive while the AI rail gets exactly the tape fields it needs.
