Volume Indicator

[bdelorm]

Is there a volume indicator that does the opposite of what is on the list. When volume is higher than the previous volume bar it's green but if volume is lower than the previous volume it's red. It's not going by the price.

Thanks

bdelorm,

Could you clarify please? The VolumeUpDown indicator has color based on price.

Please let me know if I may assist further.

What existing indicator are you talking about? What you describe should be easy enough to code, even as an addition. In fact, it could probably be done in one line.

Hi, I just started using NJ today. I downloaded some charts off google and added some indicators.

There is a built in indicator called VolumeUpDown which colours the volume bars according to whether the price bar closes higher or lower than the open.

I saved the indicator as a new indicator (VolumeUpDown2) and tried changing the following line in the code:

if (Close[0] >= Open[0])

to:

if (Volume[0] >= Volume[1])

After compiling and adding to the chart, the volume bars disappear.
I also tried: if (Close[0] >= Close[1]) but it didn't work.

Can anyone help?
