In this video, I walk you through building an automated OBV trading strategy using the NinjaTrader 8 Strategy Builder — no coding required.

On Balance Volume (OBV) crossovers are one of the cleanest volume-based signals for confirming trend direction, and automating them removes emotion from your execution entirely. I show you step by step how to set up the crossover conditions inside Strategy Builder and turn a manual read into a rules-based system.

What you’ll learn:
✅ What On Balance Volume (OBV) is and why crossovers matter for futures traders
✅ How to navigate the NinjaTrader 8 Strategy Builder interface
✅ How to set up OBV crossover entry and exit conditions
✅ How to backtest your automated OBV strategy before going live

Whether you’re trading futures, forex, or stocks — automating a proven indicator like OBV is how you stop second-guessing entries and start executing with discipline.

Risk Disclosure: Futures and forex trading contain substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or lifestyle. Only risk capital should be used for trading, and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
