Volume = Buying minus Selling

[adeelch]

Hi guys,

Is it possible to display volume based on the net positive or negative? Right now the DOM allows bidirectional but I want a sum of those two.

Example

Price: 3704.25
Buy Volume = 1000
Sell Volume = 9995

Net volume = +5
I just want the net Volume to be displayed. it can be displayed on a Chart or DOM

Hello adeelch, thanks for your post.

The Buy Volume - Sell Volume can be calculated using the BuySellVolume indicator. I attached an example here.

Please let me know if you have any questions on this material.

Hi Chris,

Thank you for this.
I am trying to get the buy sell vol listed per trick as a number. is there a way? kind of like the DOM, listed as a ladder.

Hello adeelch thanks for your reply.

This would be less straight forward than an indicator, but you do have the option to develop custom SuperDOM columns:

There are a few existing examples of SuperDOM columns existing in the platform already, these can be studied through the NinjaScript Editor. A good reference example would be the Volume column.

Please let me know if I can provide any more information on this material.

Hi Chris,

Is there, or can you provide an example of building such a custom colum in the SuperDom with this simple calculation for each line: Current_ASK - Previous_ASK

Hi Andrei, thanks for your reply.

I do not have an exact example of this. The existing examples will need to be studied to create a new column that will do this. Each column that renders data on each row requires a custom OnRender method to display the data properly. See the Volume column as an example.
