Volume Profile data for tick charts.

Postby snp » 20 Aug 2013

I was trying out the VA_Min_Max indicator provided in the programming PDF. I came to wonder, is it possible to receive VP data from a tick chart? (I'm usually using renko for my ticks)

I'm just looking for a solution to read the values from the previous days session in a strategy, not actually plotting it.

Hello snp,

Have you checked Programming Guide 4.7.6_Volume_Profile?

Hi Henry,

Thanks for the reply!

Yes I did, that's exactly the same example code I tested from your programming PDF. And I can't enable Volume Profile in the "Format instruments..." for a renko chart.

Volume Profile does not work for some non-standard chart types. It works for regular and heikin-ashi chart types.
That is possible to receive Volume Profile data via IDataLoaderResult.Data2 and IProfile interfaces.
