Hello there,

I thought I would contribute here a bit. I was watching this video few weeks ago with Fabio Valentini and loved the volume bubbles and the volume profile so I have created both using AI.

Please take into consideration that I'm not a programmer and this was developed by AI. Does it work, yes. Can the code be optimized? I'm sure about that, maybe in future releases. Please give it a try and let me know if you find any bug or if you have any ideas for improvement.

Here are the indicators Volume Detector and Advanced Volume Profile

Thanks

@samitro

I wanted to thank you for the contribution. Very nice.

If I can make a few suggestions:

For the Advanced Volume Profile:

Lines (configurable) for Value Area High and Value Area Low would be a nice addition.

Ability to select a starting time for the Daily Profile.

Apologies if I've missed how to set this but for me (on GMT time) it defaults to start plotting the Daily Profile from the start of either 00.00 hours for an ETH chart or from 14:30 at the start of a RTH chart. It would be good to be able to select a custom start time for other market open times.

Of note for the Volume Detector:
When I open the Ninja Script Editor for the Volume Detector I get a few errors showing however when F5 compile , then those errors go away. As far as I can tell from limited use these don't seem to affect the indicator working.

Again my thanks and hope the above suggestions are helpful and for any future releases.

Cheers

Many thanks, what error are you getting with the volume detector? is it when you import it or when opening the script editor only? I have tried importing it on a machine that never had it before and not getting any error, my version is 8.1.5.2 64-bit.

For the volume profile, great input, I had some on my to-do list so will get those added. For the time being, I'm setting 7 or 8 hours volume profile that would partially address your concern but have now a better idea how to improve it. Thanks again

Hi @samitro

Re: the Volume Detector imports without issue or errors. (using NT 8 Ver 8.1.3.1)


Quoting 
when opening the script editor only?

Correct only when opening the script in editor I get the following errors: However when I then compile (F5) the script compiles without errors showing.




Specific error lines (I can't get the following images to display any larger) the editor puts a very tiny red dash for the error:

Line 62:


Line 204:


Line 235:


Line 411:

Hi @samitro

An additional suggestion:

I've added more than one instance of your Advanced Profile to a chart to display for Day and Hour and Minute.
Works very nicely, thank you again.

To reduce the indicator text at the top of the chart I add the following script to indicators in general.
It turns off the display name at the top of the chart.

In On State Change at line 223 I added the following:




Just above On Bar Update I added the following:



In Properties I added the following:




With the above code added the indicator name isn't displayed at the top of the chart to declutter. You can always tick the Show Indicator Name in indicator setting to add it back to the chart.




Hope it's useful for any future releases.

Cheers

The only thing that comes to my mind is the different NT version. Once you compile it and the error disappears, does it show up again later when opening the editor? As for the indicator name/label, I usually delete it in the indicator setting in setup -> label but may add it to the next version

Correct



Quoting

Correct it reappears every time I open in editor and the error go away every time I compile. So I have to compile every time I open the indicator in editor. I wouldn't really be needing to open the indicator in editor often so no worries. Also as mentioned the indicator imports and runs without issue.

Yes it may well be the NT8 version I'm on.

Thanks again

Version 1.1 is live with the following changes

Version 1.1
  • Added the option to show VAH/VAL lines, default off.
  • Added range mode for volume profiles, you can select up to 3 ranges, if you want less keep the time empty.
  • Added the option to selectively display delta profile, default just for selection/manual profile.

Very nice.

The VAH and VAL line thickness isn't changing the line thickness.

Many thanks
