Get the index of volume bar

[aalrehn]

Hello everyone this is my first post. I just want to know if I could get the index of volume bar in mlq4

I also want to know how to get the candlestick above this volume bar. How do I get that?

For example, let's say current volume bar would be index 0

Thank you

It's all in the documentation

There is no such thing as a volume bar. Each candlestick has time, open, high, low, close, and (tick) volume.

let's suppose I am running a loop to see the tick value of volume for example

for (int i = 0; i<10; i++){
double x = Volume[i];
double y = Volume[i+1];

}

this would return the volume tick but I want to return the index of where it is so I can draw a line on candlestick associated with it. How would I do that?

I think you still don't get it... there is no Tick value of volume, there is only the number of ticks per candlestick, referred to as Tick Volume.

So it is a count of the number of prices (ticks) recieved during the bar, and nothing to do with the size of trades.

Right click a chart and enable Show Volumes,  the Tick Volume per candlestick will then be shown at the bottom of the chart.

To access this information it is as per the documentation I pointed you to yesterday.

This bit of code will get and print the Tick Volume for the last ten candlesticks, starting with the latest (index 0)

#property strict

void OnStart()
{
   long  TickVolume[10];
   int Copied = CopyTickVolume(_Symbol,0,0,10,TickVolume);
   
   
   int Count;
   for(Count=0; Count<10; Count++)
      Print(Count + " - " + TickVolume[Count]);
}
