What exactly do you mean by Delta Volume?

The difference between the volume up and the volume down, like in the picture attached.
Thank you

We still are not completely clear what you are looking for. Have a look at these two studies:

I am using Cumulative Delta Bars. How could I see the high and low label of each candlestick?
So for example, in the cumulative delta bar candlestick at 11:07 I would like to see a label above the candlestick showing the cumulative volume 1465 (max of that candlestick) and a label below the candlestick showing the cumulative volume -760 (min of the candlestick).
Thank you

You will want to use this study:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/TechnicalStudiesReference.html#s373 (Study Subgraph As Text Above/Below Bar)

You will need to base it on the Cumulative Delta Bars study.

hey support, how are the delta volume bars calculated? For the "timeframe" volume it's straight forward: it's just the sum of the volume of the trades, but how are they calculated with delta volume, because here the sum of all trades in that bar wouldn't make any sense. thanks for the answer

hey, thank you for your answer, but I don't mean the study. I mean chart > chart-settings > bar-period and then the bar-period type of "delta volume per bar". How are those calculated

Refer to the following:
Chart Settings: Intraday Chart Bar Period >> Bar Period Type >> Delta Volume Per Bar

It is really the same calculation, the sum of the volume at the Ask minus the sum of the volume at the Bid.

I think the original user was looking for a study often referred to as the Delta Indicator, just like the UpDownVolumeDifferenceBars, but for delta volume.

Grab the Original UpDownVolumeDifferenceBars study code and change the following:

  SCFloatArrayRef Array_DownVolume = sc.BaseDataIn[SC_DOWNVOL];
  SCFloatArrayRef Array_UpVolume = sc.BaseDataIn[SC_UPVOL];
  SCFloatArrayRef Array_UpDownVolumeDifferenceHigh = sc.BaseDataIn[SC_UPDOWN_VOL_DIFF_HIGH];
  SCFloatArrayRef Array_UpDownVolumeDifferenceLow = sc.BaseDataIn[SC_UPDOWN_VOL_DIFF_LOW];

to

  SCFloatArrayRef Array_DownVolume = sc.BaseDataIn[SC_BIDVOL];
  SCFloatArrayRef Array_UpVolume = sc.BaseDataIn[SC_ASKVOL];
  SCFloatArrayRef Array_UpDownVolumeDifferenceHigh = sc.BaseDataIn[SC_ASKBID_DIFF_HIGH];
  SCFloatArrayRef Array_UpDownVolumeDifferenceLow = sc.BaseDataIn[SC_ASKBID_DIFF_LOW];

Not sure this has been done, but it works.
