Volume missing on last day in VOL indicator

[gabbayo]

Hi,

I'm using NT7 with Kinetick EOD feed.
When I'm looking at a daily chart of an equity, let's take for example SPY, I see that the volume of the last day is missing in the VOL indicator (there is no bar visible for the last day).
However, if I am looking at the data box of the last day, I can see that the volume data is present and valid (compared to yahoo finance data).

Is it a problem in the indicator ?

Thanks,

Oded.

make sure CalculateOnBarUpdate is set to true.

Hi,
I didn't find that property but it led me to the solution !!!
In the indicator properties, I set the "Calculate on bar close" to FALSE (it was by default on TRUE). This way, the indicator is updated every tick and not only on close. This fixed the issue for me.
However, it is still strange because I am looking on the previous day's data, which has a close value. So even with the property set to TRUE, it should have updated the indicator, in my opinion.

Oded, great you got it resolved - NinjaTrader is an event driven (not time driven) platform, meaning the bar is not closed until the opening tick of the new is received hence to access the current last close value of the last daily bar you need to set CalculateOnBarClose = false.
