visit the link.

there is a users manual on upper right corner.
just have alook at that and see how DOM is important.
I will give a try

volume is not volume(amount) as we think. it is tick counter for each bar.

thank you.
I was thinking the same thing for last 4 years.
on sunday I need the volume values to use at an EA first time in my life. what I find out is, in reality the histogram represent the price change( tick count ) of each bar. not amout (volume traded )
what ironic. same name as the trade volume(amount) but telling completly different story.
fyi

Hmmm. I do not think that the result of your investigation is correct. As far as I can see the histogram has nothing at all to do with the amount of ticks covered by a bar. I am pretty sure it represents the volume of lots traded.

Hi Steve,
It seems you are right about the number of ticks. Following the movements in 'Market Watch' window and looking at the volume indicator in 'Data Window' it becomes clear. Always good to learn something new.

I agree it should go a bit higher before continuing going down:

Yeah, it usually goes like this, fails to break, retarce/ pull back, then drop or jump and break. need to gather orders momentum for break down. but everything can happen, if lot's of bad news from USA trend might reverse too.

as expected it failed.
failed becouse I am able to calculate only Acceleration not the momentum due I have no Mass(Volume) data.
But no worries.
last night before fall a sleep ( I can not sleep by going to bed, I fall a sleep infront of screen or TV for years 🙄) I had improved the code. now it is collecting diagnostic data. I had worked for an hour and there are poss to fix the issues. will see soon.

market is very slow. should see when volatil. and also it is trading for only 2 days long with some changes at history.
lets see when will fail. why will fail.

this has nothing to do with the trades psted. this is another idea currently working on.
why I am looking for volumes.
here is the story;
when price move a direction it has break distance as every moving object.
we can not know how much it will move but we can calculate the min bareak distance when breaked.
this distance is the profit.
think that way.
if we can calculate the speed of price and if we know the Mass ( means volume ) we can calculate the real momentum of the price. this momentum will give us the min break distance of the price.
when calculated min break distance > our profit target then trade will be open to the price directon.
there could be 3 poss move.
1 price can keep moving our direction which is good.
2 price can break, then we will wait for the break distance to exit.
3 reverse move. if the calculations are correct this should be rare.
so I am looking to find the volumes at least traded by the mean broker.

Last weeks low candles reminds me a reversal operation.
bars are very small and lower candles are very big for at least 5 days.
for me this means this is not a pull back. a reversal operation from the support.

tick Yellow line is my Support&Resistance
as usual I will wait for the actual bar close may be one more to see the direction.
currently direction is short but there are also a strong TL and yesterdays supprort.
lets see.

momentum EA ( actually Acceleration EA )
currently I am looking the 20 tick acce. on the top of that when I look 20^2 ticks acce same direction it seems to be work.
but this has to be tested for a long time.
published account still trading with only first 20 tick acce and collecting data.

it will be redicilus if I think any EA will work with fix setup after all that coding and testing experience.
so what I am going to do is
EA will start run with the results of collected data.
but it will open all trades with the rule below;
lot 1/1 with the setup parameters
lot 1/10 with the against setup parameters
this will allow me to collect data and work on it. if EA work properly then I can code a algo for 'data work part'.

😄 I started to go short in 1.2267, when the price moves up I put a short position again in 1.2299
by the way, how does that xenon 16-6 works ?
