Delta on VolumeUpDown indicator

[psanford67]

I like using the Volume UpDown indicator and was wondering if there is a way to program it to calculate the delta on directional bars verse me manually calculating them now? Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am not familiar with coding indicators at all..

Hello psanford67,

Thank you for your note.

How would you define the delta? The change from the current UpBar vs last UpBar? Or the Current UpBar vs the last downbar? As a percent or net difference?

I look forward to your reply.

Total of UpBars since the last DownBar, I am not concerned with the difference just looking for directional volume at each change

Hello psanford67,

I would suggest, unzipping the file, going to that file location and copying the file aUpDownMod.cs to the My Documents>NT8>Bin>Custom>indicators folder. Then go to New>NinjaScript Editor. Open any file on the fight side by double clicking, then within any script right click in the editor>compile.

The script should then be ready for use.

Please let us know if you need further assistance.
