Hello yaniv,

Thanks for your post.

What is the primary series on the chart that you are adding the indicator to?

Is it a standard Minute chart? Or, is it a Volumetric chart?

Note that a Volumetric chart could be a Volumetric Minute chart.

The sample code in the help guide page you links demonstrates how to access OrderFlowVolumetricBars() values in a NinjaScript.

Note that the sample code assumes that the chart you are adding the indicator to is a Volumetric chart.

If you are using a standard Minute chart, you would need to add a Volumetric series to a script, you could call AddVolumetric() in State.Configure and then for example use the code below. This is noted in the sample code.

NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.BarsTypes.VolumetricBarsTy pe barsType = BarsArray[1].BarsType as
NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.BarsTypes.VolumetricBarsTy pe;
