Hello Support,

I need to setup two charts that show like histogram, but I can't find a way to do it with this instruments (NISS-SP and NISS-NQ).

As I read in the instructions, I also tried with the Advance/Decline Study but couldn't make it work.

Would you please give me some instructions?

What do you mean by "show like histogram"? Are you wanting bars - like what you would see with the "Volume" study, such that each bar goes to the "Last" (or one of the other items)? Or are you looking for a vertical histogram like what you would see with a Volume by Price?

Although the latter (vertical histogram) is not really something that can be done - although we wonder what you are trying to view in this case, if it is what you are wanting to do.

Yes, something like horizontal volume bars, except as NISS sometimes has negative values, it would work above and below "0", very much like a Histogram chart.

Please see the attached image.

To get this, you would need to add the "Study Subgraph Reference" study to the chart and set the following items for it:
- Settings and Inputs Tab:
-- Display as Main Price Graph: Enabled (has a checkmark by it)
-- Study Subgraph to Reference: "<Main Price Graph>" and whichever item you want to reference such as "Last (SG4)"

- Subgraphs Tab:
-- Draw Style: Bar


Set other items as you want them.

Refer to the following:
