I watched some of "overflows" youtube vids and think that Mike's add on does what I'm after but very enthusiastic on using orderflow; in particular delta on a bar x bar @ price level basis.
Similar to your latest image post and in "overflow's" vids, I would so much prefer to see POC on the right side of each bar at price rather than on the Profile's (Custom) right margin default per the previous Footprint V2 version. POC on a bar x bar basis seems to interfere with imbalance markers which I use via NT8's "volumetric" data series because I prefer 1 to 1 calculation and dont think imbalance as a %age calculation of total volume of the bar serves my purposes. (see below link for my reasons if interested)
As I have a bad habit of trying to make something better and ruining what I have so far..........
Maybe this is for either Mike or yourself but do you guys think the newest Footprint V2 allow for POC on each bar without interfering with the NT8 Volumetric Data Series imbalances?
It does help and since you showed yours here's mine <g> Yes I too overlayed Mike's Footprint with NT8's Volumetric; BUT only because I prefer the imbalance calculation method of NT sans %age of the whole. So it looks like the bar/price POC is well worth adding to this combo and I guess I'll just have to risk the imbalance thing (black markers in the bars without any gradiation of color) I just want to see the imbalances which I think more important that POC if I had to choose. After all arent we trying to sus out what a floor trader knew from being there to hear and feel the market; rhetorical. NOT to mention peeking over the floor brokers' shoulders to see his deck<g> AND lean on it for scratches........buy the bid sell the offer.....LOL
Thanks for your insights and as always Mike's great contributions
I'd gladly share that template but hell if I can find where they are stored in the Ninja directory. I wonder if found would it include the Data Series settings also anyway as Mike's footprint is within the volumetric chart and its respective indicator settings. Let me know where to find that chart's template info within the Ninja directory.
I wanted to get back to you b4 dinner across the pond<g>
Chart Template attached. NT Volumetric with FootprintV2:
As @trymph mentioned you'll still need to select Volumetric in Data Series and what ever settings Minute/Vol/Tick chart etc and then load the attached chart template.
Regardless of the attached chart template you can also just open a Volumetric chart and then add the FootprintV2 indicator.
Personally I prefer the FootprintV2 I think it's great. (not with standing the odd additional Opacity setting here and there lol). The NT Volumetric visuals give me a bit of a headache.
Understood @Mike's genius.........I set the Data Series then added Mike's Footprint and the Volumetric; each as indicators to the data series chart settings. But I think the chart base itself is a volumetric with the footprint all on a 1 minute chart. Still, hell if I can find where Ninja stores the *.xml template files to send you. BTW here's an interesting stacked imbalance from earlier: <black square markers>
Finally figured out/remembered that the templates are in documents under Ninja 8 directory. geeze.....
Anyway I cant seem to make that Bar POC show up on mine. Is the template "example" you posted the one that has POC showing? If not will you post the one that you showed POC with the arrows please #166?
The white coloured bar POC's in post 166 are from the FootprintV2 indicator. They are covered over by NT's Volumetric yellow coloured bar POC's in the template I posted at post 167.
To show NT Volumetric POC's you need "Show Volume " ticked in Volumetric Data Series settings.
If you want to only see the white FootprintV2 indicator bar POC's then just load that indicator onto a chart that isn't a NT volumetric footprint chart and have "POC on Bar Chart" ticked in indicator settings.
