I want to know if it is possible to arrange the numbers in the number bar tools aligned horizontally as oppose to diagonally. I am finding it difficult and an absolute headache trying to read the footprint diagonally. Do you have existing settings for this? |

This is not making any sense: number bar tools aligned horizontally as oppose to diagonally.
What does this mean? A Numbers Bar consists of the volumes for the price levels that the symbol traded at for the time period of the bar. We do not understand the question. There is nothing diagonal about this. Color coding can be based upon diagonal calculations but those are a small number of options among numerous ones that do horizontal comparisons.

When comparing the bid and ask numbers - currently this have to be read DIAGONALLY, I want the comparison arranged to be read HORIZONTALLY.

We are not understanding this. What is the issue with that chart?

Is there anybody else you can ask who does understand what I am on about? I'm not happy with your efforts so far.

If another user understands what they are asking about, please feel free to respond. If you are asking about color coding of the text, or the background, that can be based upon both horizontal or diagonal comparisons.

All I am asking for is to have these bid and ask numbers arranged to be compared from diagonally to horizontally.

It is doubtful that we would be able to get to a change like that. But what we want to know is what is the real information you are seeking. When you look at the diagonal numbers what are you comparing? Are you looking at differences, or percentages, etc.? There are a lot of options within the Numbers Bars and there may be a setting that will help you see the data easier.

It would be great if you can have that function available; I want to compare the diagonal difference aligned in a horizontal view to make it easier to read across.

When you look at the diagonal information, what is your brain thinking? How are you processing that data? What is the comparison that you are making?

I was under the impression you knew what I meant - so what is your current understanding of the rule in reading Number Bars for the bid and ask comparison? Enlighten me.

It is not a matter of understanding you. We understand the request you have made and the change you would like to see. But we are trying to do now is to help you by trying to find a way for you to easily view the information you want to view. There are a lot of options in the Numbers Bars and perhaps one of them will give you what you want. When you are viewing the diagonal information, your brain is doing some kind of processing of the information. That is what we want to understand - what is really the information you want to see, as it is not just the numbers aligned horizontally - there is something else you are doing with those numbers in your head.

Are you going to include this in the chart function? I think there are traders who do want to read the bid and ask number arranged in a horizontal comparison as oppose to diagonal comparison - that's the information I want to see. I am counting on your immediate resolution.

Still this is not making sense. However, have a look at the "8.
