Is it possible to make a volume indicator that shows volume of that time of day?

[Drtro]

Say I have a daily chart open, and it's 11AM. I'd like to see volume for each day up until 11AM, rather than total volume for that day.

Hello Drtro,

Thank you for your post.

It would be possible to created such an indicator that accumulated volume of the day through either a tick or minute series and stored that only between the defined time frames.

If you would like to take on learning NinjaScript, we have a fully documented help guide which will help you get started with Ninja Script. You will find language references to all of the methods and functions you will be using. You will also see a tutorial section which will help you create your first indicator and get you started with some of these concepts.

I have coded a Relative Volume indicator which can be applied to minute charts. If you apply it to a 15 min chart, it allows you to compare each period of 15 minutes to the typical volume for that period. In the chart below

-> green volume bars represent a volume > 120% of average volume for that same period of the day over the last half year
-> red volume bars represent a volume < 80% of average volume for that same period of the day over the last half year
-> white volume bars are bars close to average volume over the last half year

Now you have asked about the cumulated volume of the current trading day until now. The indicator also shows the cumulated volume as a separate plot. However, it is not shown as an absolute value but as a percentage of average cumulated volume for that time of the day.

If you look at the chart below you will find that cumulated volume for 6E 12-15 today is significantly lower as usual. At 6:00 PM CET the cumulated volume runs at

-> 74% of the average volume of the last 130 trading days (26 weeks)
-> 82% of the average volume of the last 26 Mondays

Monday already is a low volume day, today's volume is even low compared to other Mondays.

The indicator can be downloaded from the free indicator library at www.lizardtrader.com.

This is what I was looking for. Have you updated any of them to NT8 yet?

Hello Harry,

Are all these 135 indicators global? I mean, can I use these to write my own strategies based on these?
