Post From: Relative Volume Based on recent bars and not days

In general your idea of using a 5 minute chart and then getting the information you need from that chart and overlaying it to the 5K candle chart is the way to do this.

But, we do not really understand what you want to accomplish. 5 5-minute bars gives you 5 minutes worth of data. And then you want to somehow compare that against the latest 5 minutes of data, which is the exact same information.

Additionally, if you are wanting to get the last 5 minutes of data from the 5k Volume chart, then there is not really a way to do this as you can only get the information for the total bar, and since the 5k Volume is not a time based chart, you would have to go to the nearest 5 minute increment where a bar started, but this could be very far from a 5 minute period.

Let us know if we are missing something in what you are wanting to do and we can try to point you in the right direction.
