NtickChart-BVcandle
Features
This is a free version with limited functionality.
This is a tick chart indicator that displays in a sub-window.
Inspired by Bob Volman's (BV) scalping method, it is designed as a tool for achieving simple and effective trading. It is a tick chart specifically for day trading and scalping, focusing even on 1 pipette changes. Instead of time-based candle bars, it generates candle bars for a specified number of ticks (ticks_in_candle). This allows for a more detailed observation of short-term price fluctuations.
This indicator is particularly suitable for scalping in highly liquid currency pairs like EUR/USD, in environments with low spreads.
- Capture sudden market movements and aim for short-term profits.
- Quickly identify trend reversals and breakout points.
- Trade with a simple chart structure, avoiding distractions from unnecessary information.
Available Features:
- Tick count can be adjusted. BV recommends 70, but in today's high-volume trading environment, I recommend 144.
- The current price line can display Bid, Ask, or Mid (the midpoint between Ask and Bid) prices individually.
- Candlestick price values can be displayed in raw form (Nop) or rounded using one of the following methods: Round, Up, or Down.
- Colors can be customized.
