I've been searching for days for a template of this type of number bars chart and I've had no luck.

Is there a guide I can read or watch that will teach me how this number bar chart is created I truly want this style so bad?

The basics are the following settings:
- Column # Numbers Bars Text: Bid Vol x Ask Vol
- Column # Background Coloring Method: None
- Open and Close Marker Style: Candlestick Body Outline

What we can not answer is what they are using to get the specific coloring of the text. You will need to figure that out. Refer to the text coloring options here:

Having issues getting the open candles to show up. I used the settings you put in your post - Open and Close Marker Style: Candlestick Body Outline but I still don't see any candles. I've even changed the chart graph draw type to different types of candles and none of them show up on the number bars chart.

how do I fix the issue with the number bar numbers being so close together overlapping each other on the higher timeframes? I can't even read the numbers at all on anything above 5 minutes.
