Logik HD Volume Scanner

The Logik Volume Scanner is quite possibly one of the most exciting and insightful trading edges available for professional traders and investors. This simple and intuitive tool allows you to see a dimension of the market you trade providing intricate and powerful information that most traders in your markets will never see.

The Logik Volume Scanner is a feature rich volume, tick, and price distribution analysis tool. It displays volume and tick distribution information computed within the user drawn rectangle, combining the usefulness of Volume Point of Control, Volume Delta, and Volume Footprint analysis into one intuitive tool. The user may manage as many volume analysis boxes as desired, at either a focused region of one bar, or large region transpiring over any range of time. Below is an image of the wands feature rich interface and data analysis presentation.

The Big Picture

As noted above, the Logik Volume Scanner allows the user to perform volume profile over any size price / time region. The Logik Volume Scanner comes in two versions. The Logik Volume Scanner, and the Logik Volume Scanner HD. Both versions pack the same features, however the HD version provides the additional feature of utilizing tick data to provide a higher degree of accuracy. When using non-time bars that utilize tick data – the Volume Scanner becomes like an “HD” television, with more “resolution” into the price action we’re studying.

What’s most exciting about this tool, its the innovative user interface. There simply isn’t an indicator like this in the entire NinjaTrader arena of tools. The way that you interact with this tool is truly a fresh and new experience with applying an indicator on your chart
