Equivolume Candles?

Beta 18

I tried the unmodified version (without change to box style default) and this worked.

Beta 18 Changes

I was able to use this indicator on previous Beta versions but can not use on Beta 18. When I go to compile I get error message saying that there are programimg errors. Did something change in Beta 18?

I installed this for a friend and it looks good - except for the fact that a wide volume bar can obscure all or part of the width of a preceding bar, making the prior bar's actual width harder to discern. Increasing the space between bars doesn't help make it clearer.

Laredo, I sent you a PM with some more detailed instructions. Here it is again though:
1. Put the file here: Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom\Type
2. Open any existing indicator in the NinjaScript Editor (Tools->Edit NinjaScript->...)
3. Click the compile button
4. Restart ninja 7.
Now there should be a new entry in the chart type dropdown called CandleVol.
Set the bar width to 9 or 10 or else it will be too narrow.

Can someone tell me if the equivolume bars download exists,where it is located,and also if NT 7 has been released.

Thanks in advance.

Sorry, but I'm not sure how one accomplishes that. Anyone?

I don't know how you create a new type, however I did manage to get it to override a chart type that I hardly ever use (the Box type). All you have to do is change this line:

public CandleVolStyle()
: base(ChartStyleType.CandleStick)

to this

public CandleVolStyle()
: base(ChartStyleType.Box)


It will then override the Box type instead of the standard CandleStick type, which will let you switch between normal and equivolume candles.

Thanks a lot! This seems to work fairly nicely. I was just wondering though - is there any way to construct this as an additional/new chart type so you we could still use the original candlestick chart type as well if we wanted to? Right now it replaces the original code, so if we want to use this we'll have to forego original candles on any of our charts... much appreciated!

Thanks. What's the secret to becomming a beta tester? I've tried signing up a couple of times. Looking forward to using CandleVol when v7 is released - wish I could try it out now.

I tried in v6.5 and got some errors - guessing a newer version of the framework is being used in v7.

I applied very early on to be a beta tester... I think there's a public beta that should be out soon anyways... probably in the next few weeks would be my guess, although they haven't said anything official.
