Only one type of volume is available on MT5.

Hi there buddy.

You could code another version of this Zig Zag Wave Volume for MT5 but using the code of the indicator I am attaching here.

It gives the up down tick volume difference per bar (a surrogate for delta), so it will give us the delta of each zig zag leg when you sum the values of all bars of the leg.

I would ask please that the volume labels do not include decimal points, instead just make the indicator round the value up or down if above/below .05

And also Is it possible to add an option of calculating average zig-zag leg volume as well?
Kind Regards

Dear friend Apprentice, I was able to get the source code of the ZigZag ticks volume difference for MT4, I thought you would like to have a look at it while coding the MT5 version requested.

The only problem with this one I see so far is that it has decimals on the volume labels, and the color of the labels seems to be hard coded because you can´t change it even in indicator settings.

Hi there buddy,

Regarding development reference 114:

I would like that you add an extra option in indicator settings for the type of volume being
used in calculation: tick or real

I am saying this cause I will open a futures account in a broker that offers MT5.

Hi there dear friend Apprentice,

Just checking if you haven´t forgotten about this, because you did not even confirm the last request to add the option to use real volume (when available) to the indicator.

Best regards

Dear friend Apprentice, can you please give me an ETA for this? It is the only MT5 indicator I need to fully migrate to the platform and it is an important for my trading, at the moment I am having to check MT4 for the values, and I am not being able to see the values with real volume offered by MT5.

Best regards

You don´t even need to code the whole indicator from scratch, just add the option to use real volume on the indicator posted in the 1st post of this thread.

Option to choose tick volume or real volume (when available).
