Hi guys.
I have a bid/ask text profile and i would like to colour bids or asks based on volume.
I select the Volume percentage in the volume Backround colouring section set the threshold but
both sides are getting coloured.
I guesss iam missing a setting.
I have attached a photo with what i want to do.
Thanks

It is really hard to say exactly what settings you want. But, if you want to only have one side or the other colored, then you would want to make sure you have the input Column n Background Type set to Background on Dominant Side. Refer to the following:
Numbers Bars: Numbers Bars Background Types

I want(If it can be done) to highlight the dominant side(ask or bid) based on particular volume(Let's say every price point that has transacted 2million and above would be highlighted.

Then set the following:
- Column # Numbers Bars Text: Bid Vol x Ask Vol
- Column # Background Type: Background on Dominant Side
- Column # Background Coloring Method: Based on Volume Actual
- Column # Range 3 Up Color: The color you want for Ask items above 2000000
- Column # Range 0,1,2 Up/Down Color: Same as Background color
- Column # Range 3 Down Color: The color you want for Bid items above 2000000
- Column # Actual Volume Compare Thresholds: 0, 0, 2000000
