The following webinar explains the "Weis Wave".
Next Webinar | Trading Psychology Edge

It basically shows the accumulating volume on a zigzag (method 2) wave.
(Or even better, the accumulating bid/ask volume)

I would like to know if there is an easy way to create such an indicator with sierra charts.

Thanks a lot for all your replies.

- Marco.

I think this looks interesting, but it was beyond my skills. Accumulating the volume for a typical indicator is not hard, but this one paints after the fact, so I couldn't figure out how to make it work, the output was junk.

Thanks for your effort.

I am a long time thinkscripter with also some experience coding in TS&MC Easylanguage.
This is a good opportunity for me to dive into coding for Sierra charts as well.

Thanks again for having taken a look at this.

I'm still looking for parameters to set in Calc Mode 2 using Linear Regression. Looking at running simulations. Any insight would be appreciated.
