Virtual Bars Indicator

Posted on November 25th, 2009
Written by Richard

Every so often, people ask me about an indicator that will make virtual large bars on top of their faster trading bars. The idea is to be able to visualize the larger-scale context without resorting to a second chart. In the spirit of the upcoming US Thanksgiving holiday, I made one today for [...]

This is the second of many free indicators I plan to release. Since it massages the TICK data in ways I wasn’t sure was appropriate, I call it “The TICK Molester!”

As I’ve mentioned in the blog comments recently, I’m going to start releasing some indicators here for free.
Today’s indicator is: The Laguerre ECO!

Idea Behind the Indicator

Free Renko Bar Indicator Available

Written by Richard

Hi everybody. As this video explains, people have asked me so often for renko bars on Tradestation and Multicharts that I finally gave in and made a little indicator for it.
