I am using this study on my footprint chart (5 ticks) and at the bottom of my chart I display the difference between the bid and offer volume for that candle (green and positive for bid difference and red and negative for offer volume). Below that number, I display the total volume for that candle. For each of these values, I would like add a green or red bar (for the bid and ask difference) and a grey background bar for the total volume at each candle. I may want to continue to display the value for each of these as well. |

You would need to use the Study Subgraph Reference to display the data from the Numbers Bars Calculated Values into a separate region. Then set the Draw Style for the Subgraph to the type of drawing you want (Bar in particular, from what you state). For the coloring of the Bid/Ask Difference you can use the Auto Coloring and set it to Based on +/- and then set your colors as you desire. Refer to the following for the Study Subgraph Reference study: Study Subgraph Reference And refer to the following for setting the Subgraph Draw Style: Chart Studies: Subgraphs Tab >> Draw Style And refer to the following for setting the Subgraph Auto Coloring: Chart Studies: Subgraphs Tab >> Auto Coloring ----- We are not sure what exactly you want to do with the Total Volume, but the above information applies as well. If you are wanting to put it in the same region as the Bid/Ask Difference, and you just want to see the top of the bar, then you would just add another Study Subgraph Reference and set the Draw Style to Bar and the coloring as you want. Just make sure that this study is above the other one in the list of the studies to ensure that it is drawn first and the Bid/Ask Difference is drawn above it.

The two values I want to show as bar with text at the bottom of my footprint are: 1. Ask Volume Bid Volume Difference 2.Cumulative Sum of Ask Volume Bid Volume Right now it just shows text and I would like to see a bar for each proportional to the size (bigger bar for large 1. and 2. and smaller bar for smaller amounts). The problem is that in the Subgraph menu, the only option in "Graph Draw Type" is Numeric Table. How do I get the option for Bar (with maybe the numeric amount on top of the bar)? |

You need to do what we stated in Post #2 above. Use the Study Subgraph Reference to reference the data from the table and then set the Draw Style to "Bar".
