Hello support. I need your advise. For example i want to change color of the bar in VBP study when volume in it exceeds certain amount let's say 5000 contracts. And the same thing i want to do for volume calculation method (ask - bid) but with another filter let's say 500. How can i do this? Please take a look.

This kind of functionality is not supported by the Volume by Price study. For something like this you need to use the Numbers Bars study: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_NumbersBars.php The Numbers Bars can use a volume profile background coloring method. You will also need to set the period of the chart bars equivalent to the time length of the Volume Profiles you want to analyze.

Could it be done with acsil ? By the way this is so simple, i can not understand why this thing is not present. Another platforms which specialize on volume analysis have this simple feature by default.

Re post #2, there is no functionality to colour a level in a numbers bar based on absolute volume at that level (only relative volume in the bar). It would be a very useful feature, especially in the VbP study.

The Numbers Bars study does support coloring price levels based on absolute volumes. Refer to: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_NumbersBars.php#ColumnCompareThresholds This has long been supported.

The colouring is based on bid and ask volume comparisons or percentage of total volume in bar. If there is a way to colour a level in a bar whenever it exceeds 5000 volume, I would love to be told.

This is definitely supported. What is the Column 1 Compare Thresholds Input set to? Did you read the documentation linked to?

OK, got it working. So, the setting 'Background coloring based on volume percentage' also colours absolute volume numbers. Never realized that and am very pleased to know.
