Adding ASK Vol % and Bid Vol% in sub-graph of number bars

View Count: 160

I would like assistance with displaying certain calculated values on my Number Bars chart.

As shown in the document I previously attached, I am trying to add the following items to the Number Bars Subgraph area:

Volume Change (%)

Ask Volume %

Bid Volume %

I was able to get Volume and Delta to display correctly.
However, the percentage values are not displaying in true percentage format.
Instead of showing values like 25% or 60%, Sierra Chart is displaying them as decimals (for example 0.25 or 0.60).

I tried enabling Ask Volume % and Bid Volume % in Numbers Bars Calculated Values, and I checked the documentation, but I cannot find a way to format these Subgraphs so that the values appear as actual percentages.

My question:
Is it possible to display Ask Vol %, Bid Vol %, and Volume Change as proper percentages (e.g., 25%, 60%) directly on the Number Bars chart? See attached sample
If yes, could you please let me know the exact steps or settings to achieve this?

Thank you very much for your help.

We are not understanding this, as the image you provide shows the Numbers Bars Calculated Values study with the percentages displayed as full percentages with the % sign, so a value of .5009 is displayed as 50.09%.

If the image is what you want and not what you are getting, then refer to the following Input for the Numbers Bars Calculated Values study:

The image I shared is exactly what I want. However, the link you sent is not working. It shows the error message “404 Not Found nginx/1.29.1.” Thank you very much.

We fixed the link. Here is the correct link:
Numbers Bars: Display Percent Values as Decimal or Percentage

This is for the Input "Display Percent Values as Decimal or Percentage" on the Numbers Bars settings.
