Hi,

Is there an indicator or function to display the amount of time (sec or min) it takes to "print" each volume bar?

For example, if I have a 5000 volume chart of ES, I'd like to know how much time it takes to fill up each bar. Can this be displayed on top of the bar itself, or shown in a histogram at the bottom?

Thanks!

Hi nicbizz,

Thank you for your post.

The only pre-loaded indicator that counts bars for volume would be the Volume Counter, but that would just be a countdown until a bar is closed.

To get that type of functionality you would need to custom program an indicator that shows the time for each volume bar. Considering that your data on the chart plots against the time axis you could just use the data box to see what time the bar closed. This will give you a rough idea of how long each volume bar was taking to program.

There may something available as well in the NinjaScript File Sharing-->Indicators section of the forum.
