Post From: Plot multiple developing VPOC/VAH/VAL values for different periods below region 1

Hello, I'm trying to plot developing POC, VPOC, value area high/low, and volume value area high/low as running values (like a line on close chart). Think of it as an indicator, in region 2 or below, i.e. below the main price chart, so it's legible and not too crowded. The idea is to plot, say, 3 instances of those values. For example, one plots the current values, one plots the values from yesterday / last session, and one plots the 5-day values. I followed the instructions for "calculating and displaying developing point of control, value ara high/low, VWAP" found here: Volume By Price Study: Calculating and Displaying Developing Point of Control, Value Area High/Low, Volume Weighted Average Price Lines It appears this can be done with the VbP study with the specific settings given. The current session version would be trivial (if I can solve the problem of having VbP appear below region 1, see below), last session could probably be accomplished by having another instance of VbP and changing the "number of periods back to reference" setting from 0 to 1. And we could probably get the 5-day VPOC/VAH/VAL plotted (not 5-day lookback) with a third instance of VbP where "time period length for fixed time" is changed from 1 to 5 (as long as "time period type for fixed time" is set to "days"), though I'm not sure what to set the "volume graph period type" to in order to draw the 5-day average lines on a continuous line graph basis, i.e. have the line move intraday if the 5-day VPOC value changes intraday. So assuming I'm correct on the 0 and 1 day versions and there is an answer to how to plot the 5-day values continuously and this is supported, this still leaves me with 2 issues: 1. To get at the TPO POC/VAH/VAL (as opposed to the volume versions), I'd have to use the TPO study, but that does not have the settings in VbP referenced at the above URL. Is there any way to do this with the TPO values? 2. Even if I only try to plot a single VbP (for current developing VPOC/VAH/VAL), the software insists on placing the VbP in region 1 and superimpose the lines on the price chart. When I select region 2 or below and hit apply, it reverts back to region 1. Tried any number of setting changes in VbP with no success. Thank you! |
