Re: Collaboration to design a new indicator?

Ok, on this coding thread I have a variation of Volume Delta Oscillator that brings a very interesting new perspective in all this Delta aproach... this is the Volume Delta Cumulative... What it does is that it takes the delta diference of each bar (like raw VDO does) and we make a summation of the x prefixed periods back... so we add or substract in this last bar to the latest summation value we got of the delta.... so far I have been able to code for a prefixed amount of bars, I would need help from TL fellow coders to be able to make an alternative formula that will make the sumation from the first bar of the session until the current last one... There is a Video I would suggest looking, quite interesting, even for forex traders that "suffer" the lack of volume information... wich brings some light on this cumulative issue and its advantages an uses, thought their formula its not exactly what we are after... the concepts within are very nice in terms of cumulative delta... Buy Sell Pressure (please pay attention to the Forex Cumulative tick indicator) our Volume Delta Cumulative would look very similar if we can make it sum from the first bar of the session... in terms of aplications I will make a post on the delta thread.... cheers Walter.

pD: default inputs had been made for very small timeframe (22T on er).... for a 110T russel chart you should put a 10-5 input aprox...
