Please consider an additional Study to visually plot the internal values of Numbers bars above/below the bar itself. This is currently the missing piece of the Order Flow tool set for Sierra Chart in my opinion. This would be a study that essentially allows you to plot information like that which is already available in the Numbers Bar Calculated Values study in a visual way in Chart Region 1 instead of a Numeric Table. This would also include common calculations used by Order Flow traders such as: -Ask/Bid Volume Difference (Delta) per bar (plotted as a +/- number above/below bar with appropriate coloring) -Number of Diagonal Imbalances per bar (plotted as a number above/below bar with appropriate coloring) -Stacked Imbalances (consecutive prices where buyers/sellers dominated plotted graphically with draw types) - this is a very common thing to track with order flow tools. Horizontal line until intersected would be useful here as well. -Number of Ask/Bid Volume differences per price in each bar - Example: Using a 6 tick range bar, 5 prices are dominated by buyers or sellers within the bar. Be able to plot a number or draw type above/below the bar. -Delta Divergence - Higher High/Lower Low with Bid/Ask volume difference in the opposite direction Being able to plot these and other Numbers Bars Calculation above/below the bar in Chart Region 1 adds the visual cues to make quicker decisions than referencing a numerical graph in my opinion. I know there are third party vendors who have created tools like this but paying 2x the price of the entire platform for them makes little sense to me. Since Sierra Chart has already implemented excellent Order Flow tools with Numbers Bars and Calculated Values, it seems logical that you would include this missing piece in the tool set as a native Study. Please consider it as I know many other traders here would find it useful. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-11-03 14:55:54
