Have updated the file here:



You can access the alerts via anaBetterVolume.BarCode. The value returned is an integer. The value depends on the volume event:

0 - strong climax churn bar
1 - strong climax bar
2 - strong churn bar
3 - weak climax churn bar
4 - weak climax bar
5 - weak churn bar
6 - low volume bar
7 - upclose other
8 - downclose other
9 - doji

I have not tested the modifications, I am counting on your feedback.


I tested all 9 bar codes and they work great. Thank you!!

Thank you Fat Tails,

This is a great indicator.

Barry, from eminiwatch has just introduced his Better X-Trend indicator, and it is free on his website. eminiwatch.com

It is based on Climax Up Bars and Climax Down Bars.

If I just wanted to show those two bar types how would I do that with [COLOR=#0066cc]Better Volume Indicator with Sound Alerts[/COLOR]?

Thanks again your work is very much appreciated.

This could have huge potential IMO. I will likely be testing it over the next days, weeks. They're only words, but a big Thank You to Fat Tails

The other bars will be shown as well, but you could just leave the sound files for those bars, and you will just get alerted to wide ranging high volume bars.

Please be aware that wide ranging high volume bars can be both climax or breakout bars, depending on the chart context.

If you just want those bar to paint, you would need to modify the code of the indicator.

@Fat Tails,
Hi Fat Tails,
I am using your anabettervolume, I just put on the left axis the volume and normally when there is these big volume bar you cannot read the volume while the label disappear above the vertical axis , today at the open the first 2 bars you could see the exact volume just at the close of the bar.
(I change some colors do not care about)
There is not a way to always see the label of the volume also on new volume spike?
Thanks very much Roberto

What label do you talk about? I don't know any label.

Volume is priceless!

I do not know why that volume marker disappears. I have never observed it, but then I have never used that indicator in overlay mode.

What you could try is to increase the upper margin for the volume scale, by right-clicking to the left of the volume axis - which allows you to access the properties menu of that axis.

Hi,
I know how to twick the vertical axis , but it was better if you could read the price marker of volume in real time.
