I have to search the world far and wide trying to find a "Price Volume Trend" indicator for NT8, but I have had no luck.
So here I am trying to write the code for a PVT indicator.
The code I have will compile, but when I insert the indicator into a chart, it does not plot anything - just a blank panel.
I think others have also tried to find a PVT indicator, so success in this endeavor will probably benefit, others.
I know enough about programming to be somewhat dangerous.
Any help would be appreciated.
