Hello Would like to know if theres any indicator that would plot the zigzag lenght in the horizontal histogram, in the same way of the zigzag cumulative volume.. picture attached

would like to ask another question, the zigzag oscilator worked, however I noticed that the oscilator usually ends 1 bar earlier than zigzag cumulative volume or zigzag indicator.. im sending a picture attached to make it clear. In the pic the wave lenght is 272 ticks, displayed in the zigzag and zigzag oscilator aswell, but if you look at the zigzag oscilator the wave is ending 1 bar earlier, the last bar on zigzag oscilator is a down wave but in the zigzag the wave still up... how can I set the zigzag oscilator to end at the same time of the zigzag?

Are the retracement settings the same for the ZigZig line and the Cumulative Volume?

So the zigzag on the price bar correspond with the cumulative volume on the bottom. This is correct, the zigzag looks for turning points and accumulates the volume to the final point in the wave. The study in the middle is set to draw on +/- so it's drawing in comparison to the cumulative volume 1 bar early, given it's picking the point the wave ends/starts i'd say it's correct for drawing based on +/- I don't personally use the ZigZag in that manner so perhaps it's a question for SC Support regarding the drawing based on +/- in this instance.

You have two options: 1) When the IN25 input "Additional Output for Spreadsheet" is switched on, you will see a new item "ZigZag line length" in the Subgraphs setting, which you can set to the drawstyle "Line" 2) If you are registered on the CZSK forum, I will give there an update with Oscillator in the default settings https://www.sierrachart.com/UserControlPanel.php?page=StudyStore&SCDLLName=zyp_download_free Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-02-05 17:10:35
