Large Volume Trade Indicator - Markers Resizing

Hello,

I notice when I scroll my charts, the Large Volume Trade Indicator Markers are Resizing. They grow and shrink as I scroll. My charts are set to auto scale and the indicator is set to auto size. Is there a way to have them larger for larger orders and smaller for smaller orders and stay that way when I scroll the chart?

Thanks,

There are a couple of possible reasons for why this is occurring, both of them depending on how you have your study setup.

1. The Input for "Marker Color/Size Based On" is set to "Visible Bars Only". Therefore, when scrolling, the maximum and minimum sizes that are being seen by the program are changing, which will change the size of the markers based on these different Maximum/Minimum values.

2. The Input for "Automatic Combining of Price Levels for Markers" is set to "Yes". As you scroll, the size of the price ladder will change, which can then lead to changes in how the markers are combined.

What settings should I use to stop the resizing as the chart scrolls?

I tried every input and I still get the same issue. I tried to upload a short video so you can see what is happening. Just scrolling a few inches from side to side changes the marker size as well as the heatmap liquidity colors. Sometimes they even just disappear.
I have read all the documentation on this. Please advise and recommend something I can try to fix this.

Thanks,

You most likely have both of those studies set to determine the Minimum/Maximum from the visible bars rather than all bars. This is the first item we referenced in Post #2.

For the Large Volume Trade Indicator, this is controlled by the Input for "Marker Color/Size Based On". Refer to the information for this Input at the following link:
Large Volume Trade Indicator: Inputs

For the "Market Depth Historical Graph", this is controlled by the Input for "Determine Min and Max Levels from All Bars or Visible Bars". Refer to the following:
