NinjaTrader 8 Fixed Auto Center keeps price in view.
A fixed chart scale lets you keep the vertical price spacing you prefer. But once you adjust the price axis by hand, NinjaTrader stops moving that visible range with price.
NinjaTrader 8 Fixed Auto Center is a small utility for exactly that moment. As price approaches either edge of the fixed view, it shifts the complete range up or down while keeping the same spacing you set.
Keep the scale you chose
NinjaTrader 8 Fixed Auto Center runs only while the chart uses Fixed range mode. When the latest price reaches the near-edge band you choose, it moves the fixed minimum and maximum together. Automatic-scale charts continue to behave normally.
Tune when it responds
Edge band
Choose how close price gets to either edge before the range shifts.
Offset
Choose how far the complete fixed range moves when it recenters.
Frequency
Choose a realtime response interval, or set it to respond on every render pass.
Manual pause
Hold Left Ctrl while you drag or adjust the scale yourself.
Key features
Maintains the fixed right-axis spacing you set by hand.
Shifts the complete visible range when price nears an edge.
Draws no plots, markers, lines, or chart objects.
Includes a master Fixed – Auto Scale enable setting.
Less dragging, the same fixed scale
Without Fixed Auto Center
Set the price axis by hand and NinjaTrader drops the chart into fixed scale, so it stops following price.
Watch bars run off the top or bottom of the visible range as price moves.
Drag the price axis back into view again and again through the session.
With Fixed Auto Center
Keep the exact axis spacing you set; the chart stays in fixed scale.
The visible range shifts up or down automatically so current price stays on screen.
Hold Left Ctrl to pause recentering whenever you want to adjust the scale yourself.
Does Fixed Auto Center change my price scale?
It keeps the same spacing you set on the price axis. When price gets close to the edge, it shifts the whole fixed range so the bars stay visible.
Does it work in automatic scale mode?
No. NinjaTrader already handles automatic scaling. Fixed Auto Center is for charts that are in Fixed range mode after the price axis has been adjusted by hand.
Does it draw anything on the chart?
No. It is a lightweight overlay that adjusts the chart scale. It does not add plots, lines, markers, or chart objects.
Can I still move the scale manually?
Yes. Hold Left Ctrl to pause recentering while you manually drag or adjust the scale.
Is this sold separately?
No. Fixed Auto Center is included with the HTech All Access membership and is not sold separately.
Requirements: Windows and NinjaTrader 8.1.2.1 or later.
