Hi There, Is it possible to use 'Number of Trades' as a calculation method for 'VBP for TPO charts' rather than Volume? I can see the option for this but when I try the VBP diagram fills the entire screen despite changing settings for width making it unreadable. Thanks for the advice. |

When you set the VbP to be based on Trades, you will need to change the Input for Bid Volume and Ask Volume Coloring Method to None. Otherwise, as you have seen, the Bid Volume and Ask Volume extend a very long way due to their relatively high number in comparison to the number of trades.

Sorry, one more, I tried that and it comes up with very small amount of trades. ie 1-6 trades for whole day for each tick, something I need to change? Thanks |

It looks like there is something odd going on when you have a VbP with a TPO and set the VbP to Number of Trades. Give us some time to look into this.

I have looked into this, and what is being displayed is the TPO Count for each bar rather than the Number of Trades. This is not something that is relatively easy to change, so I can not make any promises on whether this can get modified. It also has been this way for a long time.

Hi John, thanks for looking into it. Ok, I can make do with volume for now, but if you have a chance please see if you can change. Many thanks, |
