@ejtrader,

It's good to know that you are still around.

Thank you for the reply and for the VT15 corrected version.


However the study is not working at all after the update. It also does not show Input Names or Values in the Study Settings window (please see the screenshot attached).


After realizing that the dll was not working I tried to compile the cpp file and I got the following message:


C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\VolumeThreshold15.cpp: In function 'void scsf_VolumeThreshold(SCStudyInterfaceRef)':
C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\VolumeThreshold15.cpp:89:26: error: 'const struct s_TimeAndSales' has no member named 'Type'
if (TimeSales[TSIndex].Type == SC_TS_BIDASKVALUES) continue; // Review


So it seems something is not correct but unfortunately I have no clue on what to do with it.

Would you be patient enough and take a look at it again please?

Thanks.

@Rui S - Recently SC made few changes to T&S structure - which have forced code changes. You would have to update to the current version ( 1114 or above ).

Thanks

@ejtrader,

I have followed your instructions and updated to SC 1117. After that I was able to see and set the input values of the study.


However this last version of the study is still not working - it does not plot anything in the chart, even when I delay the time for a different time zone.


After that I re-installed back the original version of VT15 and even with SC 1117 it is working as it was before, as long as I set the time for at least one hour less then my current time zone which is "London (+0 GMT / +1 BST)".


Would you please find some energy to take a look at it again?


Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks.

@Neo1 - It should work fine for number bars based chart as well. However the number might overlap the existing numbers.

A different "marker" approach should be used for number bars based chart.

Thanks

Hello ejtrader, this is interesting study, unfortunately it works only in real time and does not differentiate ask and bid vol.
Why don't you use ask and bid volume in the code instead of time and sales, you can work on 1 trades chart with the bid and ask vol, then it can be referenced in other time frames. This will work on historical data and will print if it's an ask or a bid.

Take your Pips, go out and Live.
Luke.
