Numbers Bar Calculated Value

As per the documentation, I have tried referring to "another Chart" in order to display the delta from that other chart within my main chart. That "other chart" contains volume filters. I set to "Yes" the "Reference Other Intraday Chart;" and selected the other chart under "Other Intraday Chart reference." (please refer to the attached screenshot).

The problem is that once that is completed, the results are all Zeros.

Both the current chart and the other chart are set to the same bar period type/interval.

Any suggestions as to why this is not working as expected?

Thanks!

I have attached a chartbook (Support.Cht) with both of the charts I referred to in my previous post. Chart 1 is supposed to be the many chart with reference to Chart 2. On chart one I have added on chart region 2 the numbers bar calculated value referring back to chart 1. On chart region 3 I added the numbers bar calculated value for the current chart.

As you will see, the numbers bar calculated values on region 2 is showing zeros. I would expect to see the very same numbers as on region 1 of chart 2 (the referred data).

I hope that explains it fully. If not, please let me know.

Thanks

Before you spend any more time on this, please note I was able to make it work as intended. Thanks again for looking into this. You can close this support ticket.

By the way, the way i "solved" the problem is using the study/price overlay as inserting the Numbers Bars Calculated Values and setting it to refer to another chart is not working properly (displays all zeros). The "fix" is not perfect though, as the values transferred do not seem to match the source. But I suppose it's a limitation of the software.

This is a complex configuration. You should not be doing these types of data transfers between charts when the chart bars are based on a variable time frame per bar. The volume filtering is affecting the construction of the 1000 trades per bar chart.

Inherently what you are doing is unsupported.
