Volume per range

[hliboi]

Hello and good day,

I'm trying to develop a indicator that divides the VOL by the range of the bar Open/Close.

It shows no error on compiling but on the log it shows
Default Error on setting indicator plot for indicator 'VolOpenClose'. Value outside of valid range.


The RangeOpenClose is the indicator that calculates the range of Open/Close and works ok.

Could You help me?

Thank You

namespace NinjaTrader.Indicator
{
    [Description("Calculates the volume per range open/close.")]
	public class VolOpenClose : Indicator
    {
        protected override void Initialize()
        {
            Add(new Plot(Color.White, PlotStyle.Bar, "VOpenClose"));
        }

        protected override void OnBarUpdate()
        {
			if ( CurrentBar < 2)
				{
				return;
				}

			
			
            VOpenClose.Set(VOL()[0]/(RangeOpenClose().RangeOC[0]*10000));
			
	    }
		
		[Browsable(false)]
		[XmlIgnore()]
		public DataSeries VOpenClose
		{
			get { return Values[0]; }
		}
		
		
    }
}

Hello hliboi,

Thank you for your post.

Are you overriding the plot in either of these indicators?

Hello PatrickH,

What do you mean by overriding the plot?

Here is the other indicator

namespace NinjaTrader.Indicator
{

    [Description("Calculates  ranges of a bar Open/Close.")]
	public class RangeOpenClose : Indicator
    {
       
        protected override void Initialize()
        {
			Add(new Plot(Color.White, PlotStyle.Bar, "RangeOC"));
            Add(new Plot(Color.Red, PlotStyle.Bar, "RangeWickdown"));
			Add(new Plot(Color.Green, PlotStyle.Bar, "RangeWickup"));
			
			
			
//			RangeOC = new DataSeries(this);
//			RangeWickdown = new DataSeries(this);
//			RangeWickup = new DataSeries(this);
        }
       
        protected override void OnBarUpdate()
        {
            RangeOC.Set(Open[0] - Close[0]);
			RangeWickdown.Set(Open[0] - High[0]);
			RangeWickup.Set(Open[0] - Low[0]);
			
			if (RangeOC[0]<0)
			{
			RangeOC.Set (RangeOC[0]*-1);
			}
			
			
			if (RangeWickdown[0]<0)
			{
			RangeWickdown.Set (RangeWickdown[0]*-1);
			}
			
        }
		
		[Browsable(false)]
		[XmlIgnore()]
		public DataSeries RangeOC
		{
			get { return Values[0]; }
		}
		
		[Browsable(false)]
		[XmlIgnore()]
		public DataSeries RangeWickdown
		{
			get { return Values[1]; }
		}
		[Browsable(false)]
		[XmlIgnore()]
		public DataSeries RangeWickup
		{
			get { return Values[2]; }
		}
		
    }
}

You have not taken care of a possible division by zero, which will occur on the first strict doji bar. Take care of that, and your issue should be resolved.

Thank You very much koganam.

That solved the zero divide issue. Thank You again.
