I currently use ThinkorSwim but will be switching to either MultiCharts, TradeStation or Sierra Charts. So far I like everything about SC except I can't find the Weis Wave for it. Is there a Weis Wave cumulative volume indicator for Sierra Charts that someone has coded? Just the volume, not necessarily the price wave.

Thanks

Give Zig Zag Cumulative Volume a try.

Beat me to it.

Also, you might try experimenting with the "Calculation Mode." The available settings, somewhat obscurely, are "1", "2" and "3".... I have not used the cumulative volume version of zigzag, but in the regular zigzag indicator I have preferred to use Calculation Mode = 2. What is involved is how SC figures out that a swing has ended, and it finds different turning points depending on this setting. There is an explanation of sorts in the help topics online, but it's hard to follow and I suggest just experimenting.

That is close, thanks. I wish it had more variables but it may work. Is there anyone here that can create it for a price?

Thanks again

What additional variables are you looking for? The WW Vol (TS/MC/MT4 etc) calculates the Volume per wave based on the retracement value, nothing else.

In Sierra Calculation mode2 is the amount of retracement in ticks.

The points? As in the amount of points required before the wave changes direction? If so that's already on the SC study, "Reversal Amount for Calculation Mode 2,3"

Yes. Are you able to input any point value including halves and quarter points?

Hi @bobwest, @ninjus (you guys are the experts in SC )

I'm using ZiG-Zag study to get swing points.
Do you know how to print Swing values on top of the Oscillator as well

Thank you very much.
