number of orders remaining in a bar...

[Fritztx]

If I am looking at the ES 150 chart, is there a way to have the number of orders remaining to "Fill" the bar. I.E. how many ORDERS are remaining till the bar reaches 150?

If not, is there some utility that works with ninja trader for that purpost? It would be very handy to know how many remaining for tech trading.

thanks,

Hello fritztx,

Thank you for your post.

Can you clarify what you mean when you say, 'fill the bar?'

Since I am using the ES 150 OHLC, when ever 150 orders happens that is when that bar "Closes" and the next one opens.

Each Bar is 150 trades.

Knowing how many trades remain out of 150 for each bar would be VERY beneficial.

Hi JP,

Thank you for your reply.

Are you using a 150 tick chart? If so, please be aware that this displays price changes, not order quantities.

Fritz,

Are you using a tick or volume charts? If ticks, go to 'Indicators", and select "tick counter", then install it on whatever panel you choose. "Volume counter is essentially the same tool if you are using volume based bars. They both display the number of ticks, or volume, left in the bar to complete its build. In any event, ensure "calculate on bar close" is set to "false".
