What you are asking about is different from the original post. But, if we understand what you are wanting to do, then it is just a matter of changing the colors for the Column 1 Range 0-2 Up/Down colors.

First, however, it is not possible to have a 125% threshold when using the Background Coloring Based on Diagonal Dominant AskVol BidVol to Volume at Price Percentage. In this case, the maximum is going to be 100%, since the comparison is between the Bid or Ask Volume to the total Diagonal Volume. Refer to the following for this setting is calculated:
Numbers Bars: Background Coloring Based on Diagonal Dominant AskVol BidVol to Volume at Price Percentage

Given all of this, here is an example of settings to use if you only want to display coloring when the Bid and Ask volume are greater than 500 and the dominant side is more than 90% of the total volume:
- Background Coloring Method: Background Coloring Based on Diagonal Dominant AskVol BidVol to Volume at Price Percentage
- Column 1 Background Type: Full Background
- Bid/Ask Volume Compare Threshold: 500
- Column 1 Percent Compare Thresholds: .25, .50, .90 (The first two numbers do not matter)
- Column 1 Range 3 Up Color: Color of Choice (Green)
- Column 1 Range 2, 1, 0 Up Color: Black
- Column 1 Range 0, 1, 2, Down Color: Black
- Column 1 Range 3 Down Color: Color of Choice (Red)
