TotalVolume = AskVolume + BidVolume;
if (AskVolume >= BidVolume && TotalVolume != 0)
Percentage = AskVolume / (AskVolume + BidVolume) * 100;
else if (BidVolume > Ask Volume && TotalVolume != 0)
Percentage = -BidVolume / (AskVolume + BidVolume) * 100;
else
Percentage = 50.0;


Where AskVolume and BidVolume are the Ask and Bid Volumes at a specific price level.
