In his book, the Hedge Fund Edge, Mark Boucher mentions a Volume Accumulation indicator. It is calculated as the % of each day's close is above or below the midpoint of that day's range times the day's volume, summed to a cumulative total. Has anyone created a PCF for this in TC2000? If not, what would the formula be?

You would need to add a Custom PCF Cumulative Indicator to the chart.

How to add an indicator to a chart template
How to edit an Indicator
Dealing with OBV & MS in PCF's - how to interp their "values"

You will want to use the following settings.

- Period: 1
- Average Type: Doesn't matter (because the Period is 1).
- Up Condition: C > C - 1
- Down Condition: C < C - 1
- Value to Add/Subtract: (STOC1 - 50) * V / 50
