This is a custom bar type which is based on the Bid Ask Delta (Ask Volume - Bid Volume).
A new bar is created when the Delta is greater than a given Threshold-Value defined in the Data Series Properties.
The archive also contains a custom Delta indicator specially coded to work with this bar type.
As i am often trading from a laptop, i always wished to have some kind of a small chart in my actual trading chart to keep track of other instruments or a smaller tick or range chart of the same instrument.
This is pretty much what this rather simple indicator does.
I am fully aware that there are at least one thousand things that could be added to this indicator but as usual, it is what it is. You are free to use and edit the code but i am not gonna implement anything else as this is exactly what i need for my personal trading.
The indicator draws a rectangle to display the mini chart, which can be dragged and resized as every other rectangle in NT8.
the archive also includes a custom range bar type without gaps.
Cheers,
Mike
Updates:
- Value Area Zones added
- ChartTrader Orders are now visible
- Different ChartStyles are now available
- Added a few more indicators
- Code optimizations
- Display orders optimized
- MiniChart is now visible when markets are closed.
- Heiken Ashi added for Tick, Volume, Minute and Second Charts
The indicator is listed under an own folder: /Infinity/MiniChart
This is just a handy tool i made for myself and thought that maybe other traders will find it useful. As i am usually trading from charts but like to keep an eye on the orderflow, specially on areas of interest for entries or exits.
The indicator is just kind of a simple Footprint SnapShot, which can be toggled by double clicking on the chart. By holding the Control-Key while double clicking, the SnapShot will be reset.
Happy Trading,
Mike

This bar type creates a new bar when price reverses by a pre-defined amount of ticks from the high/low of the bar. As soon as a new bar is created and price moves at least the amount of pre-defined ticks in one direction, the bar again, closes after a reversal of pre-defined ticks.
The indicator plots supply and demand based zones from various time frames on the chart. It also adds a context menu item to the default Ninjatrader context menu to hide and show active and broken zones.

March 14th, 2024 06:10 AM Leafcutter Although I downloaded this bar type years ago I never used it and didnīt realize the benefit that it provides
in terms of anticipation of the directional change...till a few months ago. In combination with the delta indicator tha
t shows the delta next to the developing bar this bartype changed a lot for me! IThe bar type would even be better if th
ere was a possibility to automatically and dynamically change the amount of delta that is necessary to form a new bar i.
e. in addiction to the change in total volume so that increasing volume means relational increasing the amount of delta
to form a new bar. I even would pay you for programming that.
