Getting block order price

[brucelevy]

How do I identify if the e.Volume which contains a block order occurred at the bid or ask as shown in the T&S? I am drawing text of the block size at the e.Price but the bid/ask is not matching what is shown in T&S.

if(+ e.Volume >= BlockSize
&& GetCurrentAsk() >= e.MarketData.Ask.Price)

{
draw text at price
}

if(+ e.Volume >= BlockSize
&& GetCurrentBid() <= e.MarketData.Bid.Price)

{
draw text at price
}

Hello brucelevy,

Below is a link to an example script that demonstrates how to replicate the information shown in the time and sales window called TnSPrints.

This script pics a color based on if it was bid or ask.
You can add to this condition to add to the print, or change the color again when the volume is above a certain amount.

if (e.Price >= askPrice && e.Volume >= 100)

Thanks,

I am using the following however in market replay both the bid and ask blocks are all printing as blocks at the ask.

//Block order at the ask
if (e.Price >= askPrice && e.Volume >= BlockSize)
{
prints a green box with the block size
}

//Block order at the bid
if (e.Price <= bidPrice && e.Volume >= BlockSize)
{
prints a red box with the block size
}

Hello brucelevy,

Print the values in the action block.
{
Print(string.Format("{0} | e.Volume: {1} >= BlockSize: {2}", e.Time, e.Volume, BlockSize));
}

What is the output that you are getting for this? (This should only print when the condition is true)
