{quote} I reckon the bar delta (bar) figure at the bottom is of most use! Say we get a huge volume bar (potential buying climax for example) and the delta (bar) figure is massively negative and a dark red, it could me that everyone selling by hitting the bid has been absorbed by the smart money sat on the bid providing the liquidity. I need to get myself NinjaTrader, I use AMP futures, so could probably get it for free.
Agreed, but can't you just see the buy climax anyway? I feel like the candles alone tell the story, and if you want, add the volume histogram also and see the volume spike. And then price goes the other direction afterwards... It just seems to me that all the numbers are unnecessary.

I think AMP discontinued Ninjatrader after Ninjatrader became their own introducing broker, but could be wrong. Ninja brokerage, if you own the software, is just about as cheap as AMP I think.

Increasing volume, but closing well off the low with the next interval up. Seems to me to be saying the same thing as the delta chart, but much less other information to process.

Yeah, i might be trying to make things too complicated, what i'm using now works a treat. It's hard not to look for new tools to compliment my VSA trading strategy

Maybe I should live by the phrase: If it ain't broke, don't try fix it haha

Well someday he will be correct and then toot his horn "i told you so...". Sure the market will go down someday, but how much was missed going up? And how many failed shorts?

Does NinjaTrader have the function to chart the cumulative delta figure?

if that was making a new low and the actual candlesticks weren’t, would be a great divergence

Yes, there is a cumulative delta chart that can be plotted in the bottom portion. Nice trade, my internet went out right when this drop started so am finally just now getting back up and running. Pretty frustrating, but is what it is -

It's strange because I'm pretty sure I get historical data for that cumulative delta chart, so not sure why my internet outage affects it?
