Hi, I'm sorry for the basic question, but I've been searching and searching and haven't been able to find a answer. My TICK-Nasdaq shows diferent candle sizes, similar to volume based candles. Does this represents/relates to the number of stocks that "overall" are ticking up, for example?. I'm saying this because, if 50 stocks trade from down to up, then the "tick" adds 100 (50 x 2). But if 50 stocks just up tick, then the tick adds only 50 (50 X 1). But in the first case there were 100 stocks trading and the other there were only 50. Is this the explanation for the diferent candle size? Please help. Thanks |

Hi, thanks for your reply. What Im asking is, please look at the attachment in the TICK NASDAQ: Candle 1 (highlighted in yelow) is more thicker than the candle 2 (also highlighted in yelow). What does this difference means? What does it mean one candle being more thinker the other? Thanks |

First, in order for us to be able to clearly understand this, open a separate chart for that symbol. It must be a separate chart and add the Volume study. Otherwise, there is no way we can properly interpret this at all. And only post an image of the chart by following these instructions: Support Board Posting Information: Attaching or Posting a Screenshot/Image (Optional) Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Check the "Graph Draw Type" at the top of the Subgraphs tab for that study and see if it is set to "Price Volume Bars". Change it to the bar type you want if it is not set as you want.
