Sierra, is a powerhouse but everything is hidden and sometimes it takes ages just to find and setup the chart the way I like it. Now, I am trying to set up the chart for volume analysis and I have understood this is done by "Studies". Can someone let me know how to add histogram/bars at the bottom of chart that shows Volume Histogram of BUY/SELL? |

Possibly the BidVolume vs AskVolume would work It is a built-in standard study (indicator). You can either have both above zero line or one above & one below. Hope this helps. JohnR |

JohnR mentioned both above zero line. Small feature request: if the difference subgraph could also show abs value in bars above zero line.

It is possible to see a graph of only difference, but it is both above / below zero, depending if bid or ask was greater. If you want both above zero and change color, I think you will have to modify some code. JohnR |

I can use the abs value study, but can't maintain the original +/- bar coloring, which is expected. Maybe could apply color bar alert to the original, then study overlay that on the abs value study.
