Custom bars on Volumetric

[traderpards]

I am playing with the Volumetric bars stuff and I really like it. I think I already know the answer but I'm hoping what I think is wrong.

I don't suppose there is any way to pass a custom bars type to AddVolumetric(), 2nd parameter is there? I guess the real way to ask this question is if there is any way to get the Ninjatrader API to recognize my custom bar type the way it recognizes Kagi and Renko...

Hello traderpards,

Yes, there is an AddVolumetric(). Below is a public link to the help guide.

The Volumetric bar information is called differently. Below is a public link to the help guide.

Using the API (Application Programming Interface) instead of using NinjaScript will not allow you to use bar types at all. The API only allows for tick and market data to be passed back and forth.

Below is a link to a forum post with details about using the API.
