Is it possible to detect if a trade is on the bid or offer?

GKonheiser,

Thank you for your post.

You can compare the Close[0] to the GetCurrentAsk() or GetCurrentBid() to determine if the the last price was Bid or Ask.

Example -

if(Close[0] == GetCurrentBid())
{
//do something here
}

is there a reference to trade ? as what im looking for is biuld an indicator based on % of trades in a 5min bar that were traded on the bid or offer.

IE if(Trade[0] == CurrentBib)
{
counter +=
}

Would have to use 1 tick time frame i think.

GKonheiser,

It sounds like you want to use something line a buy and sell volume indicator. We do already offer something like this call BuySellVolume.

You can view the source code by going to Tools -> Edit NinjaScript -> Indicator -> BuySellVolume

Let me know if this is the answer you are looking for.
