Extended stacked imbalances for volumetric bars?

[gold digger]

I've been looking on google search, but haven't been able find an example that is open source for the code that will show a red horizonal line when there's a stacked seller imbalance on the NinjaTrader volumetric chart and a green horizontal line when there's a stacked buyer imbalance on the chart.

Here are the Methods and Properties the VolumetricBarsType exposes: https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/NT%20HelpGuide%20English.html?order_flow_volumetri c_bars2.htm

This is an example of what I'm trying to create. It's a TradingView volume footprint chart. For the sell imbalances it extends red horizontal lines.





This is another example of a NT indicator that shows the stacked imbalances, but this indicator is not open sourced code so I can't reference it in my strategy.

Hello,

Thank you for your inquiry.

At this time, Imbalance from the Order Flow Volumetric Bars is not exposed for access via NinjaScript. The values available for NinjaScript access are listed on the following page:

As there is no supported code available for detecting multiple imbalance stacks, this is something that you would need to create custom logic for calculating imbalances and detecting a stack in your script. Unfortunately, as the code is not open source our support team does not have information on how imbalances / stacks are calculated within the OFVB.

You can use Draw.HorizontalLine() to create horizontal lines or custom rendering.

This thread will remain open for any members of the community who may want to share their ideas on how to calculate imbalance stacks.
