Hello guys...
Is there a Volume Per Second Indicator some where here on the forum...?

I have searched a few times.. and haven't found anything. :O

I saw a reference to one in the Ninja Trader Forum... but couldn't find anything.

Also - on another note - does anyone even go to the Ninja Trader forum anymore..?

Ninja should just replace NT7's forum with this forum over here.. I think.

Like make a partnership with Mike and just have his customer reps over here officially answering questions and being moderators. Both would save time and money.

1. Open the chart 1-sec chart for your symbol.
2. Add either a) the Volume indicator or b) an Indicator like SMA for x periods on Volume.

2a) shows the volume of a second
2b) shows the average volume of the last x seconds

Precondition: You need second data.

That's exactly what secondary data series in NT are for ...

Add the second chart to your tick chart as the secondary data series.
Then follow the instructions of the former post, but don't forget to adjust the source of the indicator(s) to the secondary data series.

Cory's indicator is for NT7 FWIW
I may be able to update it to NT8 soon.
