Hi, I have just found this great code and was wondering if there was any way to modify the code in order to have a second Volume bias compute day trading total volume bias. So, basically we'd get two volume bias inticators on the same chart, one showing current volume bias from the current bar (2 min in my case) and another one showing volume bias since the beginning of the trading day...

 

thanks!

anything is possible...

 

if you can imagine it,

visualize it,

quantify it,

articulate it,

you can code it.

 

I would suggest you to start with the EasyLanguage manual.

 

 

Don't forget to post your code!

Hi,

 

Tradestation wont help you with a custom indicator. The indicator did not work for me either.

 

What you might want to try is the "Volume Ratio" indcator in TS, it will give you the same info. but on a line instead. A very underated indicator in my opinion.

The ratio of the Volume Bias revolves around the Easy Language reserved Words:

 

  • Upticks
  • Ticks

 

  • Upticks - Returns the number of ticks on a bar whose value is higher than the tick immediately preceding it.
  • Ticks - Total number of Upticks and Downticks

 

As an example, I created a one line indicator: (TradeStation)

 

Plot1(Upticks/Ticks, "Tick Ratio");

 

That one line of code is all you need to plot a lower study that shows the ratio. Of course, there is all kinds of different formatting that can be done. The main calculation is: "Upticks/Ticks" That's it. If I wanted to see when the ratio goes over 50 percent, I could add a center line at 0.5

 

Plot1(Upticks/Ticks, "Tick Ratio");

Plot2(0.5, "Center Line");

 

Now you have two lines of code.

 

If you want the ratio as text on the chart, this one line of code will do that:

 

Value1 = Text_New(D, T, H*1.001, NumToStr(Upticks/Ticks,2));

 

That one line of code puts the ratio over the high of the bar.

 

If you want it to be in different colors, or only display on the current bar, and not all the bars, or do other formatting, that is more lines of code. But the basics are very simple.

Are there any upgrades about code?

 

what kind of upgrade are you looking for?

 

I have a few more enhancements and variations to the original code,

but I have not decided on what to do with them yet.
