Ticks per hour

[StevenV]

Is there a way to have an indicator that would tell me how many ticks were produced per hour. For example each bar would look back 60 minutes and calculate how many ticks were made. Is this even possible and if so how would I do something like this?

Thanks, Steven

Steven,

I made something like this.

It sort of slow because it calculates based on 100 ticks at a time since you can have 25000 ticks or more per hour. For every 100 ticks, it increments a counter, then multiplies by 100 at the end to estimate ticks for each hour within +- 100 ticks.

Keep in mind this is going to look an awful lot like volume. In fact it should look almost exactly like volume.

The Smoothing parameter is for if you want to take a moving average of the ticks/hour.

Please find it attached.

Please let me know if I may assist further.

You will notice that its almost exactly like volume in appearance.
