Hi, I would like to highlight the background of my constant volume bar chart every other minute. In order to get a visual impression of the speed of market. How can I do this? Date Time Of Last Edit: 2019-04-05 07:36:05

User563999 Following is one method which may be what you want. You need to set up a 1 minute chart in your chartbook that has your volume chart and add: 1) Bar Numbering Study - In Settings and Inputs - Number Every N Bars - set to 1 2) Color Background Based On Alert Condition Study - In Settings and Inputs - Use Vertical Line Instead of Coloring Background - set to No In the Alerts Window type ISEVEN(ID1.SG1) Check - Enabled Box Uncheck - Evaluate on Bar Close Box Save the study collection. This will color the background on every even bar on the 1 minute chart. Minimise the chart if you don't need to see it. Next on your volume chart add: 1) Study/Price Overlay Study - In Settings and Inputs - Study to Overlay - From the drop down list - The 1 minute chart and to the right - Color Background Based On Alert Condition Save the Study Collection. Below are the study collections I used to test the method. |
