Hi Apprentice

Is it possible to have this for MT4 as well please.

Thanks

It's not possible. MT4 doesn't have "DIRECTIONAL_REAL_VOLUME"

Hi Apprentice

Thanks for the reply. Can it be implemented using the following code snippet?

void Vcolor(int p)
{
if(Close[p] lt Open[p])
{
VolBuffer1[p]=Volume[p];
VolBuffer2[p]=0;
lastcolor=Red;
}
if(Close[p] gt =Open[p])
{
VolBuffer1[p]=0;
VolBuffer2[p]=Volume[p];
lastcolor=Green;
}

}

Thanks

[Apprentice]

Exactly this logic is implemented.
Can you clarify, deviations if any?

Is it possible to make it an MT4 version without Direct Real volume and using the code above to colour the volume bars to the same colour as the price bars e.g. bullish price bar (green) creates a green volume bar and vise versa for bearish bars.

OK Thanks for taking the time to look anyway.
