Real Volume Indicator

Post by **Wavegarrick** » Sat Mar 15, 2014 1:59 pm

Hi Mediator,

I am kinda misguided by the notion of of posting an idea that may be the holy grail in trading. As we all know there is no holy Grail. So if there is something good it will only be known if shared here and ideas to better a system by so many brilliant people on this forum. If it is a marketing ploy to gain interest in buying an indicator I am afraid I have to sit out.

Hello!
Recently FXCM published real volume indicator for Trading Station which displays "real trade volume and number of transactions from FXCM’s clients around the world":
http://www.fxcmapps.com/trading-station ... ndicators/
We can download it for free and e.g use for manual trading, even if we trade in Empty4. However switching windows between Empty4 & Trading Station and changing timeframes can be a bit annoying.

Does somebody know where real-time volume data feeds can be obtained? I could write and publish here e.g. a DLL to grab and parse the volume data to make an indicator. It could be really useful.
Best regards

Hi!
I've spent some time researching about the Volume. Here are my findings:
At the beginning Beter Volume indicator (attached) as recommended by Doug (slowkey). It can show moments, when something happens on the market. According to
http://forums.babypips.com/candlesticks ... fader.html
a good volume feeds you can get from Cowboy IBFX and/or GoTrader (demo account). Below is a screenshot of Better Volume on Cowboy IBFX, Gomarket and other boroker.
Can somebody post a screenshot comparing FXCM real volume indicator? On my PC setup does seem to NOT install the indicator in FXCM folder.

Detailed rules of using Better Volume can be found here
http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread. ... ost2619991
However I think about implementing them into the indicator to show automatically a message (less thinking

)

Free real-time volume feeds - could be used to make an indicator like Mediator's one:

Commercial volume indicators gathering data from many banks/liquidity providers:

Did someone tried them?

Mediator,
Any progress on sharing these Volume indicators? We would all be very grateful if you would share your work.

It would really not be all to difficult to make similar indicators as Mediator talks about.
When I have some spare time I am definitely going to look into coding one. Might be a while, but when done the indie will be shared here.

That would be really nice. I have no idea what happened to Mediator. He dangled a carrot in front of everyone and decided NOT to share and disappeared. Not cool.
