I just saw the new version, I'm sorry maybe I wasn't clear but it's not what I wanted. I liked the way it was before when for bid trades it was just the bid volume which was bold and not the ask volume. I wanted to keep that and change the ask trades to have ask volume bold and bid volume not bold. That way it would be very clear whether trades are occurring at the bid or ask. Of course when the bid/ask is not changing and trades are just bouncing between them then it's clear, but once price starts to move it's not always obvious whether the trades are at the bid or ask and you have to look at the order board to try figure it out, which is cumbersome. The new solution does not address this problem, because both bid and ask volume are now both bold so you still can't distinguish between bid trades and ask trades from the numbers bar alone (unless you actually see the volume number changing, which is not always possible, so having a record of last trade at bid or ask in the form of bold bid or ask volume would be very helpful). Is it clear?
