Hi,

I'd like to display TWO values side by side in a subgraph. Examples would be bid volume on left in red and ask volume on right in green or as in screen shot + Delta Sum on right and -Delta Sum on left.

There doesn't seem to be option for bar offset left and bar offset right. Here's screen shot of example I mocked up to show what I'm trying to do. Taking valuable data in numbers bars calculated values and plotting it to more easily see important details of whats going on.

Yes you can do that with these Draw Styles:

ACSIL Interface Members - sc.Subgraph Array: sc.Subgraph[].DrawStyle

DRAWSTYLE_CUSTOM_VALUE_AT_Y_LEFT_ALIGNED: For more details, refer to DRAWSTYLE_CUSTOM_VALUE_AT_Y.
DRAWSTYLE_CUSTOM_VALUE_AT_Y_RIGHT_ALIGNED: For more details, refer to DRAWSTYLE_CUSTOM_VALUE_AT_Y.

There are others as well.

Hi,

Thank you so much for reply and custom value left/right looks very cool and I can find an application for it. I was hoping to be able to draw the bar style left and right aligned.

I see point, tick style, and many others but just want a regular line from value down to 0. I looked for a long time and could not find it, I suspect there is no Bar Left Aligned, Bar right Aligned right?

There is not a draw style to draw a line left or right aligned and down to zero. There are a few "Fill to Zero" options in the Draw Styles. Refer to the following:

Ok thanks for help this explains why I could never find that option. I'm sure you guys are working on a dozen+ projects but I do believe having this draw style would be very popular. The options for how to apply it are endless, here are just a few so you realize how important this draw style is.


Bid Vol left / Ask Vol Right
Bid Imbalance Left / Ask Imbalance Right

Volume Left / Delta Right
Bid Stack 12 levels deep left / Ask Stack 12 levels deep right
ES Tick Left / NQ tick right

Volume/20 Day Avg Volume Left / Delta/20 Day Avg Delta Right

The list is endless I realize I can use ticks or dots and text which is an amazing find but for me seeing the line is more clear. I guess I can hide variables I want plotted and use color bar based on alert condition and draw a line if ask if bigger than bid and in another alert condition show bid in transparent rectangle. Just a lot of work though and wouldn't look as clean as simply a bar left and right aligned this is mostly for those using footprints since they are wider.
