I’m trying to display percent change in volume from the prior candle to the current candle using the Number Bars Calculated Values study. There is an option for Total Volume Bar Difference, but I want this shown as a percentage instead of a raw difference.

The calculation I’m looking for is:

(Current Volume - Prior Volume) / Prior Volume * 100

Example 1 (negative):
Prior volume = 18000
Current volume = 2500
Result = -86%

Example 2 (positive):
Prior volume = 5000
Current volume = 7500
Result = +50%

Is there a built‑in way to do this? If not how can i add it alongside my current calculated values? Thanks.
