This is an indicator that I have personally created. It is similar to OBV and you can use it the same way. Although it gives a greater number of signals. In my opinion, provides earlier and more accurate signals.
I have added three algorithms. Price, Volume, Price*Volume
Basically, the indicator is a result of the sum of Price, Volume, or the results of their product.
Old version is using Price algorithm

Apprentice, it looks very interesting, but which time frame would you recommend for this one?
Apprentice · Sun Oct 30, 2011 7:08 am
As I have repeatedly stressed, I do not use indicators in my trading.
This is a relatively new indicator, i do not have much information on it.
In theory, it should give similar results in all time frames.
Feedback is welcome.

I have added two additional algorithms.
sabrumea · Mon Oct 31, 2011 6:03 pm
Apprentice, i think after you added these two algorithms the indicator became more reliable on H4 !!!.. but on m5 or m15 it has become less reliable—you can not even draw a line that should be crossed to trigger the entry because i many cases it is almost horizontal

Old algorithm should be unchanged. You Correct me if I’m wrong. I can release the old version, also.

Hi, how can I check/change the version? Thanks. Luciana
Apprentice · Tue Nov 01, 2011 4:27 pm
By selecting one of the available algorithms. Type parameter (volume, price or volume * price) Old Version, Use Price.

Apprentice, i think the indicator (with new algorithms) is ok for all time frames… just on the smaller time frames you have to zoom in ! i think your new version is much more reliable. i really like it!!

Can I please ask that this indicator be written in .lua format. I have tried to open the bin file with secondary file opener and no luck. Or please advise on how to accomplish that task.
Thanks!

Where can I find the WOBV indicator that appears in the picture for progress indicator?
Apprentice · Thu Oct 11, 2012 3:01 am
Progress and WOBV are essentially one and the same indicator.
Apprentice · Thu Oct 11, 2012 4:06 am
to jackfx09 I use. Bin deliberately, to hide the algorithm that is use.

hi apprentice
very interesting indicator. much better than obv. thanks a lot.
can you explain me please why there is a such big difference between the bid and the ask on these volume indicators. thereby, i don’t know if i have to check trends on ask or bid and it’s often very different. maybe it depends if i need to buy or sell.
i’ll be very grateful if someone could help me on this.
thx a lot

Between the Bid and Ask a negligible difference, Progress, like OBV, is a cumulative indicator. If you add a lot of negligible values, You get a noticeable difference.

Bump up.
