Calculating and plotting 'tape' speed

[canaussieuck]

Has anyone ever seen an indicator that measures the ticks per second on an n tick bar? OR can anyone tell me how to program an indicator to plot the average ticks per second?

Cheers,


CanOz

CanOz, I would suggest you take a look into the Avg Time per bar indicator found in the sharing for example - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ch=time&desc=1

Hello, canaussieuck

This indicator plots, depending of your choise:
WhatToPlot = Seconds - duration of bar in seconds;
WhatToPlot = Ticks - number of tiks in bar;
WhatToPlot = Speed - (duration of bar in seconds) / (number of tiks in bar).

NOTE: It looks to work correct on tick and range bars, not on time-based bars.

Hello, Bertrand

In previous post I shared indicator that use Bars.TickCount to calculate numbers of tick in current bar.
It seems to work strange:
- on minute-based charts it return number of munutes in bar
- on tick-based charts it return smaller number that it have to
(on 100-tick chart it return 70, on 1000-tick chart it return 870)

Is this bug, or I something misunderstood?

Hello BoTrad,


Please note that we do not offer development of scripts on the support team. However, due to the nature of your request, I have modified the original Tick Counter indicator to accomplish this.

Here is a basic guideline of how to Import NinjaScripts in NinjaTrader 8.

To import NinjaScripts you will need the original .zip file included with this message.

To Import

1. Download the NinjaScripts to your desktop, keep them in the compressed .zip file.
2. From the Control Center window select the menu Tools > Import > NinjaScript

3. Find and Select the downloaded .zip file
4. NinjaTrader will then confirm if the import has been successful.

Once installed, you may add the indicator to a chart by:

• Right click you chart > indicators > Select the Indicator from the list on the left > New > OK

Critical - Specifically for some NinjaScripts, it will prompt that you are running newer versions of @SMA, @EMA, etc. and ask if you want to replace, press 'No'

Thank you very much!

it´s a goog help but perhaps wrong understand

i search no counter, better like a volume peak indikator with the time, wich seconds each tick in the tick-chart every bar need (beginn/close) for every minute (unit: second)

optional in colour:
<= 20 = green
>20 = red

or only an bar like the volume indikator with second display

Hello BoTrad,


You would have to create a Multi-Time Frame script to accomplish this.


You could build this by creating a custom script and adding a tick series to your script. Here is our Help Guide on Multi-Time Frame & Instruments to assist you further.
