Hi
How do I enforce a minimum volume thresholds(AskVol,BidVol,Total volume at price level), when the Column Background Coloring method is set to "Based on Dominant Side AskVol BidVol Percentage"?

Does the "Column # Actual Volume Compare Thresholds" apply in the above comparison method(ie Dominant side Percentage)?


I understand I could use "Background Coloring Based on Dominant AskVol BidVol - Actual" and "Column # Actual Volume Compare Thresholds" together for implementing minimum volume thresholds, but thats more suited for single well known asset with known volume characterstics..,but for a generic asset(like stocks with different volume characterstics and time of day variations) , comparisons by percentage is more suitable, with min volume thresholds.

thanks

I found the answer "Bid/Ask Minimum Volume Compare Threshold", Seems to work for my needs.
