Better Bitcoin Volume: Free MT5 Expert Advisor

Overview

Better Bitcoin Volume utilizes a companion Expert Advisor to perform web requests, fetching CSV data from Bitcoinity to bypass platform limitations that restrict indicator internet access. The retrieved data is processed, time-zone adjusted, and passed to a separate indicator for display as a histogram. It aims to provide a more accurate representation of volume by aggregating multiple major sources. The tool is strictly for data visualization and does not execute trades. Users should note limited historical data availability and potential file naming conflicts.
