volumetric bidask updowntick

[tonynt]

Hello,

from reading in the helpguide I do not understand how to use volumetric with updowntick instead of bidask.

* when using it from primary dataseries on the chart is it the same in onbarupdate with " NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.BarsTypes.VolumetricBarsTy pe barsType = BarsArray[0].BarsSeries.BarsType as
NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.BarsTypes.VolumetricBarsTy pe;" or something to add for updowntick?

* when using it as added dataseries is there something to add to "AddVolumetric("ES 09-21", BarsPeriodType.Range, 4, VolumetricDeltaType.BidAsk, 1);" in state.configure?

* when using it for calculations in the code is it same as working with bidask with "GetAsk" is for uptick or is the syntax different from "barsType.Volumes[CurrentBars[0]].GetAskVolumeForPrice(Highs[0][0])"

Thank you!
Tony

Hi Tony, thanks for posting.

1. If your volumetric bars are set up as UpDownTick then referencing BarsArray[0] will also be the same.

2. Change the VolumetricDeltaType.UpDownTick in the constructor. AddVolumetric("ES 09-21", BarsPeriodType.Range, 4, VolumetricDeltaType.UpDownTick, 1);

3. It is the same syntax for getting the bid or ask volume. You will still use GetAsk/BidVolumeForPrice to access the individual volume cells in the bar.

Kind regards,
