Can you set it so that it alerts when there are 3 imbalances in a row inside the body of a candle after it closes for both a bull and bear candlestick. I currently use Volume at price indicator to highlight imbalances but idk how to set it to only highlight imbalances inside candlestick body and after it closes. And is there a way to set it so that only -delta imbalances are highlighted in bear candlesticks and +delta imbalances in bull candlesticks.

What you are asking for is more than we can put together for you.

But here are some pointers to help.

- With the "Volume at Price Threshold Alert v2" you can set a "Highlight Adjacent Alerts Minimum Group Size" that will give you an indication when you have the 3 imbalances (or more) together. The Subgraphs that hold that information start at Subgraph 49 and each is a pair that defines the low and high of a group. Just be aware that SG49 is always set, so you want to use SG50 to know if there actually is a grouping in place at all (i.e. SG50 will be non-zero if at least 1 group exists).
- You would have to compare these subgraphs to the Open/Close values to determine if it is inside the body of the bar.
- You would have to check the delta value against the bar type as another aspect of the alert.
