Library "VolumeProfile"
Analyzes volume and price and calculates a volume profile, in particular the Point Of Control and Value Area values.
new(rowSizeInTicks, valueAreaCoverage, startTime)
Constructor method that creates a new Volume Profile
Parameters:
rowSizeInTicks (float): Internal row size (aka resolution) of the volume profile. Useful for most futures contracts would be '1 / syminfo.mintick'. Default '4'.
valueAreaCoverage (int): Percentage of total volume that is considered the Value Area. Default '70'
startTime (int): Start time (unix timestamp in milliseconds) of the Volume Profile. Default 'time'.
Returns: VolumeProfile object
method calculatePOC(vp)
Calculates current Point Of Control of the VP
Namespace types: VolumeProfile
Parameters:
vp (VolumeProfile)
Returns: void
method calculateVA(vp)
Calculates current Value Area High and Low of the VP
Namespace types: VolumeProfile
Parameters:
vp (VolumeProfile)
Returns: void
method update(vp, h, l, v, t)
Processes new chart data and sorts volume into rows. Then calls calculatePOC() and calculateVA() to update the VP. Parameters are usually the output of request.security_lower_tf.
Namespace types: VolumeProfile
Parameters:
vp (VolumeProfile)
h (array<float>): Array of highs
l (array<float>): Array of lows
v (array<float>): Array of volumes
t (array<int>): Array of candle times
Returns: void
method setSessionHigh(vp, h)
Sets the high of the session the VP is tracking
Namespace types: VolumeProfile
Parameters:
vp (VolumeProfile)
h (float)
Returns: void
method setSessionLow(vp, l)
Sets the low of the session the VP is tracking
Namespace types: VolumeProfile
Parameters:
vp (VolumeProfile)
l (float)
Returns: void
