New Versions / Recent Updates to BCT Indicators

The following list includes recent updates to BCT indicators. Note that updates are typically made to only a specific platform, so ensure that any listed update applies to the platform(s) you’re using.  Also, updates to newer indicators are usually noted in the Release History / Notes section of the specific indicator's User Guide, so check there to see the details for releases for a specific indicator.

If you’re unsure whether you have the latest version and you’ve saved the downloaded indicator file, you can check the saved date of the file to determine the date you downloaded it. You have the latest version if you downloaded the indicator after the date listed for the update. 

The updated version can be obtained by downloading the latest version from the BCT Indicators Download page, accessible via your Member Dashboard. Sometimes you may need to remove the old version before installing the new one, but generally, you can install the updated version on top of the old one.  NinjaTrader users may see a duplicate names error when updating, and they can click here for more information on how to resolve that should it occur.

Remember that sometimes an updated indicator will change how any saved defaults or saved templates function. This is especially true for NinjaTrader 7 or 8. If you install the indicator and it doesn’t look correct, make sure that you reset any templates or defaults you may have stored for the indicator, as the old defaults might be being incorrectly applied to the wrong plot, etc.

Selected Version Numbers

Version numbers are provided for some indicators.  When we create a new version of an indicator, we'll usually include a version number and update the table to show the new number.  The table does not include all indicators - just those that have a version number.  More will be added to the table as version numbers are added. 

The table does not have all existing version numbers shown yet, but any version number listed is accurate. An updated version is likely available if you see a version number in the table higher than what's on your system.  You can download the latest version from the BCT Website's Indicator Download page. Example installation videos exist for each platform on the BCT Support page at this link.

If your current indicator doesn't show a version and there's a version number listed in the table for the indicator, then an update is likely available.  If you have a special custom version that may have been directly provided to you for a specific issue, the new download version may not include the adjustments included in that special instance - so keep the old version installation files in case you need to revert to it for any reason.  

BCT cannot provide previous versions of indicators, so if you'd like to revert to a previous version, you'll need to use your own saved version.  Therefore, you may want to keep the old indicator installation file until you're confident that the new version is working and is preferred.
