Total number of Ticks or total number of bars in each minute box

[ssmike123]

When using Tick Charts, each minute is marked within the grid and at the bottom of the chart. Is there a way to print Total number of Ticks or total number of bars in each minute box?
Here I have used a line chart purposely.

Has anyone done this? or can you help please. Here is an image & description of what I am looking for

using an intraday 200 tick chart of/ES with the background grid on, the rectangles of grid are not of equal size, since each rectangle is formed after one minute. the more trades have taken place in that one minute, the longer the horizontal length of rectangle. if each bar is 200 ticks, some rectangles may have 10 bars and others may have 30. this is not a fixed number. is there a way to print the number of bars in each rectangle?

I know your question is old, but perhaps this will work for you:

declare upper;

def trade_time_s = SecondsFromTime(0000);
def delta_t_s = trade_time_s - trade_time_s[1];
def delta_t_m = delta_t_s / 60;
input minutes = 5;

def trades = tick_count();
def trades_per_minute = trades / delta_t_m;
def min_blocks = trade_time_s % (60 * minutes);
def time_boundary = if min_blocks[1] > min_blocks then 1 else 0;

def cumulative_block_bars = if time_boundary == 1 then 1 else cumulative_block_bars[1] + 1;

AddChartBubble(time_boundary[-1] == 1, text = cumulative_block_bars, "price location" = HIGH, color = Color.WHITE);

I like tick charts and try to solve problems people have using them.

@mashume, Works perfectly. Thank You

Can some please help with changing this indicator to add a label instead of adding a bubble on the chart.
