Hi,
I am doing a trial run of NT8 and I can't trial order flow plus.
Can someone clarify if I can replicate a chart exactly like the following
attachment using NT8's build in features ? or do I need to buy some expensive
indicators to achieve this ?

Thanks.

here is a 15 min chart of CL.
One difference... you can't colour the whole bar green or red, the colours are at each price level.

@ragic, thank you for your reply.
The only issue is it wastes precious vertical space on the chart.
Also your chart of 15mins scales well with the time axis. But what
if it is a tick chart ? the standard width of the table might not align
with the time axis.

edit: Looks like my requirement is simple! The data is already available
eg. barsType.Volumes[CurrentBar].TotalVolume is already available.
Now how can I show this data, above or below the table on the chart ?

That's a nice looking chart! heh.. Must be doing something right if someone wants to duplicate..

Those bars are a custom gradient candlesticks that are packaged with that particular product..

Any orderflow chart like that, which needs historical bid/ask data.. will require TickReplay enabled..

With that enabled, grab, calculate, and store the volume data within OnMarketData for each bar..

Then in OnRender.. Render that information (Text or TextLabel) anywhere on your chart you want..
