Volume filtering at price levels for Numbers Bars

View Count: 1051

Hello,

I'm using the Numbers Bars charts on my SC platform.
I want to filter the volume on each price level of those bars to be only visible if greater than a set number so I can see only for example volume above 100.
All other volume, which is lower than the set value, on different price levels within a bar I want to set to either 0 or to be hidden.
I've looked into the Volume Filtering option, but it's either not for this or I am doing something wrong.

Looking forward for some assistance setting up the options. Thank you in advance !

Kind Regards,
Nikolay

You need to use this Input setting with the Numbers Bars study:

Hello,

Thank you for your quick response.
I have tried the setting, however it is not what I am looking for.
It alters the way the chart bars look.
I'm attaching a screenshot. I'm looking for a setting, which will make all volume sizes on the price levels within a bar that are over 100 highlighted (the background color of all >100 to be different than gray while all other volumes below 100 remain gray).

This is not exactly supported.

You can color code the text or the background. But not both.

Refer to:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/NumbersBars.php#TextColoringMethods

You want to use Volume Percentage Coloring but you can set the Column 1 Compare Threshold Input to be greater than 1 to compare to actual volume.
