Hi!
Is there an indicator which could split the classic volume indicator into bid and ask volume?
I need nothing fancy really, just for the 2 type of volumes to be shown separately.

Thanks,

Yuri57

Don't you mean something like a footprint chart? ( )

Hi Yuri,

The GOMI Delta Volume indicator might help and shows bid/ask volume in different ways. I found it a useful replacement for standard volume indicator for identifying accumulation or distribution activity but sadly, like anything else, it is not reliable enough for that! Algos are far too clever. Back to clean chart.

I was running standard volume and Gomi DV together for best results.

Hope that helps.

PS. Sorry no link... I can never find stuff in the downloads section. Not sure why.

No, it has too much information. I'm looking for classical volume histogram under the chart spil into bid and ask.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it measuring the difference between the bid and the ask volume? (hence the name, delta) I need the raw numbers (in a histogram) / minute.

My apologies, now I see there is a number of indicators inside Gom package.

GomCD works fine, but Gom DeltaVolume is off I think....

I was looking at this indicator: https://nexusfi.com/download/ninjatrader-7/indicators/337-download.html?view

It just didn't work. Anyone?

Severely out of date, I believe.

Latest version is here:

I do have the GomPackage 2.6 but only the CD function is working properly.

I would need the other indicator up-to-date but I guess it's non-existent.

Thanks Mike, now I know how to search for attachments... any recommendations which GomVolumeDelta to use since there are so many versions? Which one do you use?
