Hi gcUserStudies, Thank you for the update. Here is my feedback : 1) The LTV Priority Works awesome ! Makes things clear again. 2) Volume Calc - All Recent Volume : Works fine like before. - Tail Activity Only : It seems that activating this setting create some errors. - Big Volume prints inside the tail don't trigger any highlighting. - Also, imbalance highlighting are falsely triggered (delta requirement not met). Both are rare but they happen. I cannot pinpoint why these errors happen, it's very hard to tell. I can't find any pattern. Also, I found out that there are still some "False flag events" at both tail extremity. Overall, the All Recent Volume calculation setting seems more rock solid, and is obviously simpler to calculate. It works fine 98% of the time. We just need to be aware that it sometimes creates some false flag at both tail extremities. I'm not a programmer so I don't know how difficult it would be to code an effective filtering condition to avoid these false flags. Maybe it's better to not over-engineer a solution and just live with it. It is good enough as it is ! I'll continue to use the All Recent Volume setting and will be very happy with it, unless you decide to do another update. 3) Big Print Clearing Condition - Volume below threshold : Works fine like before. - New Volume Printed : Since it is resilient to SC setting Recent Bid Ask Volume Timeout in Milliseconds, it creates false triggers all the time if this setting is activated. I use 1500ms for this SC setting, and have the Big Print Volume threshold set at 100 (white highlight) and Delta threshold set at 75 (yellow highlight). You can see the result in the screenshot in attached file when the price do a retracment on a previously traded area : nothing makes sens. Also, if we use the keyboard shortcut Clear Recent Bid/Ask Volume, it clears the volume but not clear the highlights (see 2nd screenshot). As a result, I cannot test if the "New Volume Printed" setting effectively works as intended. As for Volume Calc, if it's too difficult to find a solution to this problem, I'll be very happy to stay with the previous settings as it works fine 98% of the time. I have 2 more suggestions if you're not tired of me yet : 4) Big Print Delta Imbalance Color Settings Create two sets of colors instead of one (text and background color). One for Ask dominant delta, the other for Bid dominant delta. 5) New Histogram display setting Currently, the Histogram create its own virtual column and pushes aside the Recent Bid and Ask prints. It is of course logical to do so if we decide to show the Histogram values text, so both texts from the Histogram and from the Recent Bid/Ask Volume don't overlap. But... if we decide to hide the Histogram Value Texts... AND to disable the Tail rendering... Now there is space to put the Histogram color bars behind the Recent Bid/ask Volume Text (and not aside by creating a virtual column). It would create a Delta Tail (background coloring depending of delta) , instead of the current Time Tail (background coloring depending of time elapsed). It would be a perfect integration of the Histogram functionality inside the Recent Bid/Ask column. It would mimics what SC can already do with its DOM Columns Show Volume Bar setting. But it would have 4 keys improvments over SC native volume bars : - SC volume bars don't have a "Duration" setting. It shows bars where there are prints. There is no way to keep the prints and to hide the bars older than x milliseconds. Histogram has a duration setting, which creates the "Delta Tail effect" that SC can't do. - SC volume bars are always shown on both Bid and Ask. Histogram only show bars on the Dominant side, which is a nice option to have. (but it would be interesting to allow users to show both sides) - SC volume bars only draw... volumes bars. Histogram already has the setting to disable "Variable Width" which would color the entire cell background. - SC volume bars use one single color. Histogram already has 5 different colors for delta thresolds. If suggestion 5 becomes reality, it would be nice to be able to chose the layering order between the Big Print and the Histogram. I'm hesitant about it. Now I'm done with suggestions ! Thank you again for your work. I remain available for future feedback. |
