Post From: Question on Number Bars - Diagonal Dominant Side Calculation

If I read the explanation correctly it compares the Bid Volume from one level lower than current price with the Ask Volume from the next higher level from current price.
No, this is not correct.

For each price level, the bid volume is compared to the ask volume above and the ask volume at that same price level is compared to the bid volume below.

If there is not a price level to compare to, then the comparison is done to 0.
