This is an open interest indicator for the Russian FORTS futures market. Now, you can receive data on the open interest in real time in МТ5 terminal. This allows you to develop brand new trading strategies or considerably improve the existing ones.
The data on the open interest is received from the database (text CSV or binary one at user's discretion). Thus, upon completion of a trading session and disabling the terminal (or PC), the data is saved and uploaded to the chart when the terminal is re-launched.
You can use FORTS All Saver or any other utility that saves data in the same format to receive the open interest database.
Open interest value is displayed as candles, where Open is the value at the beginning of the current timeframe's bar, High/Low - high/low value and Close - the value at the moment the bar is closed (and a new one is opened). The minimum allowable timeframe is М1 (one minute). Thus, you can see the changes of the open interest inside the bar and examine its dynamics in comparison with the neighboring bars.
