Hi all,
I'm starting to use the Footprint indicator and I really like what it offers.
Here is my Q, is it possible to programmatically access the VPOC of current or previous candle with the information provided by this indicator and referenced by other indicators? If so, I'd appreciate some hints/code that shows how to do it.
Thanks in advance,
BT

Hello,

at the current state of the indicator, there are no accessible data series for the footprint data available. I have some plans to extract the BarItem to an own Indicator which then would have all the data made accessible for indicators and strategies but this is still a project i am working on without any specifig ETA.

All the best,
Mike

After some thoughts, i finally exported the BarItems to an own Indicator (BarData) which is also used by the FootPrintV2 indicator to access the ladder data for the bars and the profiles.

I've attached Test.cs to this post, which is an example indicator on how to access the BarItems provided by the BarData indicator.

The BarItems which can be accessed provide the following per bar data:

 

Code

BarItem --------------------------- int idx // bar index bool ifb // is first bar of session bool clc // internally used to check if the bar item has to be re-calculated double min // minimum price double max // maximum price double rng // range in ticks double opn // open price double cls // close price double vol // total volume double ask // ask volume double bid // bid volume double dtc // delta close double dtl // delta low double dth // delta high double cdo // cumulative delta open double cdl // cumulative delta low double cdh // cumulative delta high double cdc // cumulative delta close double poc // point of control (price) double avg // average volume (total volume / rows) ConcurrentDictionary rowItems // bar row items Profile custProfile // custom profile Profile currProfile // current session profile Profile prevProfile // previous session profile RowItem --------------------------- double vol // volume double ask // ask volume double bid // bid volume double dta // volume delta Profile --------------------------- int bar // first bar used for profile calculation double min // minimum price double max // maximum price double rng // range in ticks double opn // open price double cls // close price double vol // total volume double ask // ask volume double bid // bid volume double dta // volume delta double poc // point of control (price) double vah // value area high double val // value area low double avg // average volume (total volume / rows) ConcurrentDictionary rowItems // profile row items

All the best,
Mike

That's awesome, Mike.
Thanks again

That's awesome, Mike. Is the Bardata indicator available for download? Thanks again

The FootPrintv2 has been updated with Bardata
Update it and install again

Hello, i've uploaded a version with slightly larger text. Just re-download and install the indicator again. All the best, Mike

Hello, turns out this is the reason I joined Nexusfi. I found this indicator in the Ninjatrader ecosystem. I really like it. So much so I paid for Elite status here to ask you So, I removed the version I had found and downloaded your latest build here. The text is still too small for me to read. I see others posting pics or making videos of it though and it looks great. Am I doing something wrong? I can stretch the vertical but lose most of the candles on the screen.

Hello,

you can scale the chart vertically and horizontally.
The font size is automatically adjusted to the available cell space.

On the first screen it looks like you only scaled the chart horizontally. So there is plenty of room for the text horizontal but gets capped because of the height.

All the best,
Mike

yes, in the first I only scaled horizontal. was just trying to show the difference. even in the second the text is too small for me to actually use, I have to scale the vertical up even more to actually read and by then I can only fit 4 or 4 range candles on the screen.

Would love a quick recap of this snip, just curious if I understand the layout correctly. I've turned off a couple things like Midas, and per bar delta. I'm just trying to wrap my head around the concepts.
