Volume Counter

[babba]

Does anyone know if there is a volume counter that would display the current accumulated volume from the open. Searched the forum and NT7 but coudn't find anything that could do this. Does this exist or have I missed it somewhere? Any help would be appreciated.

HI babba,

What interval are you using? A few options may be:

VolumeZones: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/HelpGuideV6/helpguide.html
or volume counter, or even the simple VOL indicator on a daily chart.

I primarily use 5 minute and 250 tic charts for futures. I just need something that can display, in the corner of the screen, a running tally of the number of contracts traded since the open up to the current time or tic.
Let me know if you have any ideas. Thank you for the quick response

babba, unfortunately I'm not aware of a tool for this task, it could be custom coded by accessing the daily volume (if the provider offers it) in the OnMarketData() for example - perhaps as a workaround use the Market Analyzer and add the DailyVolume column there for your instrument.

Thanks, this will do. If I can just keep the instrument name from flashing everytime the volume changes it would be great. Thank you again.
