Can we draw EquiVolume Chart in AmiBroker :)

sunilm02 · #1 6th January 2008, 08:51 PM

Hi friends..
I have been using MetaStock till now.. And most of my trading is done on the basis of EquiVolume or CandleVolume charts, which are inbuilt in MS.

For those who do not about these types of charts, I am enclosing them here.

This is Equivolume Chart of Reliance Industries. I basically shows a direct relationship between price and volume.

And this one is CandleVolume chart of RIL.

Now I want to shift to AmiBroker for its speed and efficiency.
But the problem is that I don't know how to draw EquiVolume chart in AB.
I will be very thankful if any one can help me out.
I think there might be some code to do the same. But I have not been able to find the code.

Thanks to all of you
Sunil

Okay just found out,
the bar`s width is directly related to the volume so, if we have a breakout with good volume then you will see the candle bar loong and its width will be fatter than the rest of the candle sticks, its a visual approach to momentum, up or down
Anyone has an AFL for this? im in line too...very interesting. Thanks sunil

As far as I know, Amibroker does not support price volume

hey Sunil i read somehwere that an afl does not allow to modify the width of a candle...so i guess Ami has some work to do in their new release, send them in e-mail maybe?

I'd like this too but unfortunately there seems to be no way.
