2 of the indicators I'm using are the NQ TICK and the 20 MA of the Ask/Bid Volume Difference Bars study. Both these fluctuate around a 0 center line. I want to know how I can auto calculate the upper and lower 'value areas' of these studies. I.e. I want to see where the majority of price traded in. Example: NQ TICK fluctuate between +500 and -300 for a given period. I want the system to plot levels that will show where 80% of the ticks traded (So upper 40% and lower 40%). Almost like the VAH and VAL of volume profiling. Is that clear enough?

Are you sure about that? SC usually have an answer for every request. The horizontal profile is not what I was hoping for. Any other ideas? What about something like a standard deviation with bands or a median with bands - do you think something like that might work?

The standard deviation with bands is close enough. Should have thought about that. Thanks
