I am trying to set up a reversal chart on sierra chart with imbalances at 4 times the bid/ask - the calculations don't appear to be correct.

The numbers bars are working fine and I've set the reversal chart on the S&P 500 emini at 5/0. I've set the compare threshold at 4/4/4 so it should all be ok but there are far too many highlighted imbalances and more than often they are less than four times the previous? The text colouring method I have set as based on diagonal dominant side askvol bidvol percentage.

Please can you advise why the imbalances are often not four times the previous bid/ask and how I rectify this.

Many thanks

Here is the updated chartbook back. The problem was simply that you still had the color for the Range 0 Up/Down set to the same color as the other Ranges. But the Range 0 Up/Down percentage always starts at 0. Therefore it was coloring everything from 0-400% the Range 0 color. We changed the color to White to look like it is not colored.
