Need an index definition for total volume. That is, add all the volume within a given Dataset.

Aggregate Indicator > 1-period SMA of Volume. Voila.

Does not work. It gives average volume of 1-period. That is, it adds all the volume for 1-period and averages them.

For example on 10/24/11,

APPL: 17,839,455
AMZN: 4,952,148

while the aggregate indicator of 1-period SMA gives
11,395,796.5

I suppose I could just multiply the aggregate value by number of stocks to get the total volume. Nevertheless, it would be convenient to have an index definition.

OK. Will add an IndexDefinition for Total Volume in the next release (v.2011.11).

The MS123 IndexDefinition Library has just been updated to version 2011.11.

Highlights:

* Added: Gap Up/Down index (see Wiki for explanation)
* Added: Total volume (requested by richard1000)

The MS123 IndexDefinition Library has just been updated to version 2012.01.

Highlights:

*Added: Speculative Demand Ratio (SDR) by David Varadi
* Added: Demand Index (DI) by James Sibbet
* Added: Breadth Index (BRIN) by Jacobus van den Brink

In the April 2013 of TASC Magazine there was an article about Low Frequency Trades. The instructions for WLP indicate to Install MS123 Index Definitions. I expect there to be a Low frequency trading index available in order to create the customized index for this strategy. I don't see it listed. Am I missing something? I don't seem to be able to use the Index-Lab tool to set the index as suggested?
Thanks,

Unfortunately, it's not there yet (for technical reasons). We'll upload the content shortly after next scheduled Wealth-Lab build becomes available. Here's an excerpt from the Traders Tip that you're referring to:



On a broader note, all extension updates have been paused since the release of our updated website and until new WL build comes out. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I am getting an error on Swenlin Trading Oscillator and Volume Ocillator. The initial index build went fine yesterday. But when try to update the next bar today, the chart shows an error "Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection".

I am using S&P 500 dataset to build this index.

Works fine here. Could be bad data. Try rebuilding the indices first (delete them and re-create), otherwise use the Data Tool to reload the data from scratch and retry.

I rebuilt the index and everything went fine. But, just to check, I went to Data Tool and truncated 1 bar to yesterday. I opened a chart to Swenlin Oscillator index but it failed to update with the same message as above. Other index symbols were updated without problems. Only the Swenlin Oscilator gives me the problem.

I used S&P 500 dataset from Fidelity. I also tried S&P 500 dataset from Bloomberg but it also failed.

Update:
I also tried Swenlin Osc with Dow 30 stocks and it also failed. The building of index is no problem. The updating is causing problem.

The MS123 IndexDefinition Library has just been updated to version 2013.11.

Highlights:

* New: Price/Indicator Crossover (crossunder)
* Fix: "Indicator Crossover/Crossunder (value)" bug: first symbol was not included when building indexes
* Change: renamed "Crossover (Crossunder) with Indicator" to a more reflective "Indicator Crossover/Crossunder (value)"

Attention: existing users of v2013.11 should not upgrade to v2017.04 (recent release). It contains only minor changes such as targeting .NET 4.5 etc. It is possible (although unconfimed) that upgrading breaks I-L on startup and your existing I-L indices based on MS123 IndexDefinitions won't load.

UPDATE 04/25/2017: V2017.04 has been unrolled. Our website hosts v2013.11 again. If you have upgraded to v2017.04 and Index-Lab is broken, please download v2013.11 from Extensions, install and restart WLP/D.
