Hi Cory,

Thanks for the quick response. I tried that one and I couldn't get it to perform on my charts. Specifically trading forex and using range bars.

And yes I really only want what's on the left corner of that image. Just the range data at a glance. Hopefully someone can help out with that :-)

Cheers,
Jester

That's odd because I have 30 days loaded on my data and I still get nothing. must be something in the code that may not be applicable to forex.

Hi,

do you only use IB Data or do your realtime data come via Kinetick?
As IB delivers only minute data history, you cannot construct tick-based charts (like range bars etc.) from that (except from snapshot tick data with "history" for times when you are online with an instrument).

@cory: Thank you for pointing to the indicator, but it is an old version which I have no longer maintained. The volatility bands are now integrated with the SessionPivots V42 indicator which can be found here:



The three OHL indicators can be used to plot daily, weekly and monthly ranges. Ranges can be plotted for the full trading day or for a subsession of the trading day, such as the night session or the regular session. The indicator can be used with FOREX without any limitations.

What is important to get correct results is the choice of the session template. For FOREX instruments you would need

- to select the session template FOREX or set your chart to the session template <instrument settings> to display the correct daily, weekly and monthly ranges.

Example 1: Here is a sample chart for $EURUSD. The data box displays the average daily noise and average daily range for the last 20 days, the last 10 days and the current day. The 20-day average was 82.5 pips, the 10-day average 76.5 pips, the current day's range so far is 49.5 pips.




Example 2: The average monthly range for $EURUSD was 352 pips for the last 3 months, and 398 pips for the last 6 months. The range of the current month is 268 pips so far.




Example 3: I am now interested in the average range for $EURUSD for the US session starting at 8:00 AM EST. The average range for $EURUSD during the New York session is between 55 and 58 pips. Today's range so far is 46 pips. The lower target band is drawn based on the range expectation. For this chart a session template with a subdivided trading day is required.

Thanks for the help all! I do in fact have a data feed from Kinetick as well as IB. I downloaded and applied the newer version by FT (THANK YOU!) and it works like a charm.

Thanks again!
