Hello!

I put on my chart the Large Volume Trade Indicator. I saw that even if you select the Draw Mode with the options "Based on total volume above threshold", it just plots the figure if there is at least one trade that is above threshold.

Example:

There is in the same bar at same price level the following trades:

50
90
70
80
70

(total volume 360)

If I set Volume threshold to 50 and Draw Mode to Marker With Total Volume Above Threshold Text it will plot a box with the number 360.

But if I set Volume threshold to 100 and Draw Mode to Marker With Total Volume Above Threshold Text it will not plot anything.


It would be good if the options "Based on total volume above threshold" considered the sum of the volume at that bar and price level independent of the size of individual trades.

Thank you!

The study is not designed to do anything like this at all. You are misunderstanding the intent of the study.

You are using the wrong study. You instead need to use the study: Volume at Price Threshold Alert V2.

Or use the Numbers Bars study.

Ah ok! Understood!

Tried the Volume at Price Threshold Alert V2 and it worked well...


So is it possible to add on the Volume at Price Threshold Alert V2 indicator the text box with the volume number like the Large Volume Trade Indicator?

Also would be nice to have in this indicator an option of automatic indicator size!

Thank you!

No, this is not something we would do. You need to use the Numbers Bars study which is designed specifically for this :
