THANKS

Hello Jonson,

Thank you for your note.

The Rising and Falling for Volume would look similar to the code below. What plots are you looking for from the indicator?

			if(Rising(Volume))
			{
				
			}
			if(Falling(Volume))
			{
				
			}

thanks

Hello Jonson,

Thank you for your response.

So you want the VolumeUpDown to plot the values based on Rising or Falling volume rather than the current if(Close[0] > Open[0])?

Hello,

Attached is the VolumeUpDown based on Rising or Falling volume title VolumeRiseFall. Please download to your desktop and then import via File > Utilities > Import NinjaScript.

Hello Jonson,

Thank you for your post.

What items are you stuck on in your conversion?

I recommend using the 'Code Breaking Changes' page and it's search function to find the NinjaTrader 8 code needed. Please visit the following link for the 'Code Breaking Changes': https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...ng_changes.htm

Some of the items you will need are the following:

• AddPlot(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...s/?addplot.htm
• AddLine(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...s/?addline.htm
• IsRising: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...us/?rising.htm
• Assignment of values to Series (Plot values) using = : https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...s/?seriest.htm

Please let me know if you have any questions.

hi
unfortunately I could not understand how to make an indicator for myself, you can help me realize it?

Hello Jonson,

Thanks for the reply.

Attached is the NT8 version of this indicator.

If you wish to learn more about NinjaScript, reading through the educational resources linked below is a good starting point.

Please let us know if we may be of any further assistance.

ChrisL,

if i wanted to add a simple moving average to this current indicator so that if volume exceeded this average by "X" percent .... it would also paint a separate color or a dot above the volume ...

for example if i used a 1 MA and previous volume was 100 ... and i chose 200% ... then when current bars volume exceeded the 100 volume by 200% or greater it would paint this histogram a different color or put a dot above volume.

i have tried overlaying moving average envelopes over volume to configure something similar but due to the other side of the envelope is below zero it doesnt plot correctly.

any help appreciated
thanks

Hello chinapassage,

Thanks for the post.

Note the additional constructor that is available for the SMA class:

SMA(ISeries<double> input, int period)

https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...simple_sma.htm - SMA()

You can pass in the indicator's Values[] array as the series to tell the SMA to take the moving average of the volume series. Once you have that value, do your calculation as you normally would.

The following line will get the current 14 period SMA value for the UpVolume series :

double val = SMA(Values[0], 14)[0];

if(val >= *x% of some number*)
{
    //Do something;
}

Please let us know if you have any questions.

any ideas where i am inserting this in the wrong place?
thank you

Hello chinapassage,

Thanks for the reply.

I provided a quasi-pseudocode example. I am assuming some level of experience with C# for this example.

This part, in particular, is not C# code: *x% of some number*

If you replace the OnBarUpdate method from the previously attached script with the OnBarUpdate posted below, you will see dots drawn above where the 14 period SMA of those bars is greater than 90% of the bar's value at that time.

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
		{
			if (IsRising(Volume))
			{
				Values[0][0] = (Volume[0]);
				Values[1].Reset();
			}
			else
			{
				Values[1][0] = (Volume[0]);
				Values[0].Reset();
			}
			
			var percentile = Values[0][0] * .9;
			
			if((SMA(Values[0], 14)[0] > Values[0][0]+percentile) && (Values[0].IsValidDataPoint(0)))
			{
				Draw.Dot(this,"Signal" + CurrentBar, true, 0, Values[0][0]+100, Brushes.Red);
			}
		}

Please let me know if you have questions.
