To calculate On-Balance Volume (OBV) using TypeScript, you can follow the steps below:

  1. Create a class or function to calculate OBV:

10
11
12
13

class OBVCalculator {
  calculateOBV(data: number[], volume: number[]): number[] {
    let obvValues: number[] = [0];

    for (let i = 1; i < data.length; i++) {
      if (data[i] > data[i - 1]) {
        obvValues.push(obvValues[i - 1] + volume[i]);
      } else if (data[i] < data[i - 1]) {
        obvValues.push(obvValues[i - 1] - volume[i]);
      } else {
        obvValues.push(obvValues[i - 1]);
      }
    }

    return obvValues;
  }
}

// Example usage
const obvCalculator = new OBVCalculator();
const data = [10, 12, 15, 13, 11];
const volume = [1000, 1500, 1200, 800, 1000];
const obvValues = obvCalculator.calculateOBV(data, volume);
console.log(obvValues);


  1. Instantiate the OBVCalculator class and call the calculateOBV method with price data and volume data arrays as arguments.
  2. The calculateOBV method will return an array of OBV values calculated based on the input price data and volume data arrays.
  3. You can then use these OBV values for further analysis or visualization.


This is how you can calculate On-Balance Volume (OBV) using TypeScript.
