I have the Zig Zag Study set to Ask Bid Volume Difference and just showing the volume text above and below the price bars. Why isn't the most current swing populating with volume? I have the Reversal Amount set at 4 points, so even though price hasn't moved up 4 points( actually it did briefly), the volume should be populating somewhere, still on the downswing or on the current upswing. But it isn't populating at all. Also, what setting do I change to keep those volume numbers within the chart view? Notice the highest bar volume number is not in view.

If the study does not meet your requirements you need to modify it: Why isn't the most current swing populating with volume? I have the Reversal Amount set at 4 points, so even though price hasn't moved up 4 points( actually it did briefly), the volume should be populating somewhere, still on the downswing or on the current upswing. But it isn't populating at all.
And you really should display the zigzag lines, so you know what is happening. Refer to: How to Build an Advanced Custom Study from Source Code The study is working as designed. We cannot provide further help. You need to modify it to meet your requirements. Also, what setting do I change to keep those volume numbers within the chart view?

You need to increase the range of prices in the chart:
Chart Scale and Scale Adjusting: Interactive Scale Range - Expand/Compress Scale Of course I know about that, but there isn't a way to automatically make the scale keep those numbers in view? |

The values that are printed from the Zig Zag study are actually drawings. So they are not taken into account with regards to the scaling. The best thing to do is to adjust the "Scale Padding Percentage" (make it larger) in the Scale Settings, so that the numbers will stay in view. Refer to the following: Chart Scale and Scale Adjusting: Scale Padding Percentage (Scale Settings) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
