It sounds like you want to use the Spreadsheet Formula (Bar) study. It works the same as the Spreadsheet Formula except you can enter formulas for the Open, High, Low and Close and get a bar to display.

Start with a very basic formula. You should not have any trouble with that study.

You need to set each of the Open/High/Low/Close to a different formula. Having them all be the same formula will give you the line as you see as they are all the same value.

In order to capture the intrabar OHLC values of a 1 min bar's Volume, try this: 1. Duplicate your 1 min chart. - Change the Bar Duration to 0-0-1 (1 second) - Remove all studies except the Volume study. 2. On the 1 min chart, add the Study Overlay - OHLC study. - Set the 'Chart, Study, Subgraph Reference' to the 1 sec chart, Volume study, Volume (SG1). Study Overlay - OHLC (Open, High, Low, Close) |

i mange to work with the study overlay-ohlc and spread sheet (bar), BUT the values that i get from my formula (for example) are: 5-open,3-high,6-low,1-close but the chart price (for example) are: 20-open,22-high,19-low,21-close the spread sheet (bar) display me the values 5-open,3-high,6-low,1-close on the chart, at price level 5$,3$... which i dont want /// i want to see those values ( 5-open,3-high,6-low,1-close) on the "real" graph (20-open,22-high,19-low,21-close) //// for example, i want to see in 20-open of the real chart mark for my formula which is 5-open in 22-high of the real chart mark for my formula which is 3-high in 19-low of the real chart mark for my formula which is 6-low in 21-close of the real chart mark for my formula which is 1-close many thanks |

It is unclear what you are doing, or want to do. The Study Overlay - OHLC study produces OHLC bars. Why are you also use the Spreadsheet Formula (Bar) study? |

Do you want to display the Volume OHLC values at the price bar's OHLC prices?

There is no native study that will do what you want. There is no DrawStyle that can place a value at a certain price. You would need to create a custom ACSIL study. |
