Is there an option in the hand drawn DVP tool which will display the total volume for the selected section of bars?
I think it would be very cool to be able to see the numbers for, Total Volume, Net BA vol, bid vol, and ask vol [within a hand selected range of bars].
Does this already exist? & if not, then might it be built one day?

Alright then - I've updated SC to current version.

I tried looking into SC's DVP tool, and there isn't an option to show total volume.
I get that it calculates all the volume and displays it as a profile, however, I do not see the total volume displayed as a number.
Is there a way to hand select a range of bars and display the total vol as a number? I'd assume DVP would be the perfect tool for doing this.
If there isn't, would you consider adding this to DVP? I'm sure it would require little programming, but it might be very helpful.

There are several new Inputs on the Volume by Price study to support this. If you look in the list of Inputs, the first one begins with Show Chart Values on Profile. Refer to:

For anyone else using this thread to find the data:

Set show chart values to true, and then go to window > Tool Values Window.

Thanks SC!
