An indi for TradeStation designed to show high-volume bars
without having to devote a separate pane to an indi. It
marks them with the character in the variable vChar - "o" in
the picture.
It simply plots an ma of volume and marks bars which exceed
it by the value in the variable vadjust.
The bottom pane in the picture, which is a different but
similar indi, shows the principle.
Why the longest volume bar in that pane is not signalled by
VolVsRange I don't know - unless it's off the chart.
The code (let me know if there are errors in it - it was one
of my first tries) :
{ Indicator }
Inputs:
UpColor(Black) , DnColor(Red) , vAvg.length(9) , vadjust(1.8) , VolAlert(false) , vChar("o"), offset(0.5) ;
Variables:
vol(0) , avgv (0) , volvlen(0) , barlength(0) ;
If BarType >= 2 then vol = Volume else vol = Ticks;
vol = volume ;
barlength = H - L ;
if vol > 0 and barlength > 0 then
volvlen = vol / barlength
else
volvlen = 0 ;
avgv = averageFc(volvlen, vAvg.length) ;
if volvlen > avgv * vadjust and O[1] > C[1] then
begin
Value1 = Text_New(D,T, Low - Range * offset, vChar ); // down bar
Value2 = Text_SetColor(Value1,UpColor);
If VolAlert = True then
begin
Alert("VolvLen down ");
End;
End;
if volvlen > avgv * vadjust and C[1] >= O[1] then
begin
Value1 = Text_New(D,T, High + Range * offset, vChar ) ; //up bar
Value2 = Text_SetColor(Value1,UpColor);
If VolAlert = True then
begin
Alert("VolvLen up ");
End;
End;

The Vortex Indicator consists of two oscillators that capture positive and negative trend movement.
A bullish signal triggers when the positive trend indicator crosses above the negative trend indicator or a key level.
A bearish signal triggers when the negative trend indicator crosses above the positive trend indicator or a key level. The Vortex Indicator is either above or below these levels, which means it always has a clear bullish or bearish bias.
Calculation of the Vortex Indicator can be divided into three parts. First, calculate the positive and negative trend movements based on the highs and lows of the last two periods. Positive trend movement is the distance from the current high to the prior low. The further the current high is from the prior low, the more positive the trend movement. Negative trend movement is the distance from the current low to the prior high. The further the current low is from the prior high, the more negative the trend movement. These periodic values are then summed based on the indicator setting, which is the usually 14 periods.
The second part involves the True Range, which was created by Welles Wilder. This indicator uses the current high, current low and prior close to measure volatility
The third part normalizes the positive and negative trend movements by dividing them by the True Range. In effect, the Vortex Indicator shows volatility-adjusted positive trend movement and volatility-adjusted negative trend movement. The end result creates to indicators that oscillate above/below 1.
Please Keep in mind that the Vortex Indicator is not designed as a standalone indicator.
Hey Elite Circle Members!.. I wanted to go ahead and share something that Big Mike wrote for me that may help you in your trading. This indicator utilizes Volume, Stochastics, and Reversal Bars, to plot out potential reversals in the market.

I have found that it works especially well with Range Charts. I will say the Volume component has to be tuned down under 1.00 or a lot of triggers get filtered out. Probabably some enhancements could be made in that arena.
Caution should be taken on Trending days as a lot of false signals will be generated. It is best used as a supplement to other indicators.
