Strategy using the Nasdaq Volume symbol ^NTV

[joevieira]

Hi,

I would like to include the NASDAQ volume on my strategy using symbol ^NTV. However, I am having problems to set up my strategy

On OnStageChange() I added

AddDataSeries("^NTV", BarsPeriodType.Volume,1)

How to I get the value of the daily volume on my OnBarUpdate code?

I appreciate any help you can provide..

Thank,

Joe

Hello joevieira,

Thank you for your post.

I'd recommend adding a daily data series then using Volumes[1][0] to retrieve the current daily volume for each day. (Assuming the added data series is the only added series, if there are others before it you'd need to use the appropriate bars array index).

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.
