another question off of this one would be is it possible to have a custom symbol that would keep the actual volume the same no matter what the multiplier.

so we would have a relative volume and an actual volume?

so i could say do a 5*{clz20_fut_nymex} and my output for the volume would stay
the same as the original and actual 1*{clz20_fut_nymex}

thanks so if volume in 5 mins was 3000 contracts and the price was 40
then my 5*{clz20_fut_nymex} would display

200 price and still 3000 as volume? yes i culd just take volume and divide it by my multiplier of 5 and get my original volume
but i cannot get sierra chart to show 200 price and 3000x5 = 15,000 volume.

i am also trying to keep charts open and data down to a minimum so. opening a clz20 chart and overlaying the volume onto my custom symbol seems
like another entire chart and data that needs to be downloaded and calculated in order toget what i want from a custom symbol to not have to do this thanks.

before i start asking for stuff i think i need to understand how the volume is handled in custom studies. thanks.



thanks again
