Hi: I currently have numbers bars displaying ask bid vol difference, with point of control colored. I would like to create an alert to color a candle background based on values above or below certain thresh-hold for this data. For example, if the ask bid vol diff. for a POC is above 1000, paint the candle green. How do I do this? Since there's no specific subgraph for this particular field (that I'm aware of). Thanks. |

There are special functions available accessing the Volume at Price data in Alert Formulas.

Thanks for the link. I looked at the documentation page. Although there are identifiers for very basic chart data such as Open, Close, Volume, etc, I couldn't find anything that specifically targets the one that I'm looking for, which is the value of ask bid vol difference at the point of control price of a candle. Unless I missed something of course. Please help.

We made a mistake. These are actually implemented as special functions: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_StudyChartAlertsAndScanning.php#SpecialFunctions In the past they were Base Graph identifiers. Although there is no way to get the point of control in an Alert formula. For what you want to do, you will need to use ACSIL: Advanced Custom Study Interface and Language (ACSIL) You will need to use this object: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_ACSIL_Members_Variables_And_Arrays.html#scVolumeAtPriceForBars Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
