Quote from LostTrader:
For those that still use it, I updated VolumeSCT because I wanted a different message in the Volume pane. I realized from bi9foot that I liked seeing the actual % listed, as well as the graphic, so I modified the output message.
So instead of writing Prior Volume = ## now it is more cyrptic!
Now it writes [V1=## : %] [V2=## : %]
V1 = prior volume and the % is the comparison of PRV to V1 (prior volumebar). Likewise, V2 = volume two bars ago and the % is comparing PRV to that V2 volume number.
I did both because in cases of inside bars, I want to compare PRV to the pennant bar, and not really to the inside bar.
I am still using NinjaTrader's DrawText tools, so the position is less than optimal. I would have preferred to break it up onto two lines. Maybe I will get better at overriding their limits or they will provide better methods in v7. We'll see. Meanwhile this works.
Quote from Specterx:
All these tools being posted for NT has prompted me to try it out... nifty. I'm using VolumeSCT, I have a black background so the JHIndicators volume study won't work for me, and I also like the inside-bar coloring. It looks like you have a separate 'pace' indicator to display the volume pace lines, could you post this as well?
Thanks
In truth, the Pace indicator is just a variant of NT's own ConstantLines indicator. I've lost track of what I've uploaded or not, so here is a complete set for Ninjatrader 6.5 -- just import and compile.
Don't worry too much about shading etc. Spydertrader used qcharts for most of the futures journal as did several other people. Just use any colored line for laterals/pennants (many ppl here like to use yellow for that - check some of the charts from the futures journal and you will see). Many of the charts you see posted now are automatically or semi-automatically annotated, especially laterals etc, most using NT.
