Mastering Average Volumes: A Simple Indicator for MetaTrader 5
Hey there, fellow traders! Have you ever felt the need for a straightforward way to keep tabs on volume changes? Well, you're in luck! The Average Volumes Indicator is here to save the day. It's designed specifically for EAs (Expert Advisors) to monitor increases and decreases in volume with absolute ease. So, how does it work? Essentially, this nifty tool calculates the average volume over a specified period, using candlestick data. What's fantastic about this indicator is its versatility. It operates with both Tick Volume and real volume, depending on what your broker provides. This means you can get the insights you need, regardless of your trading setup. If you're using an EA and want to check if the volume has spiked, all you need to do is compare the volume from a longer timeframe to a shorter one. If the shorter timeframe shows a higher volume, then you’ve got an increase! Simple as that! This makes it super easy to integrate this data into your MQL5 EAs or even FX Dreema EAs. In the image above, you'll notice that the brokerage firm is only providing Tick Volume, which is why the indicator displays the pink line representing average tick volume. If your broker also gives you real volume data, the blue line will show that instead. So there you have it! The Average Volumes Indicator is a must-have tool for any trader looking to enhance their trading strategy. Happy trading!
