I am sorry I was not clear. I have a study (Volume weighted average price) and want to add an alert to the study but dont know how. It appears there must be some language written for the alert to occur when the volume weighted average price is crossed

The documentation for alerts is at the following link:
Study/Chart Alerts And Scanning

If you want an alert whenever the last price is crossing the VWAP line, then you would use the following formula:
=CROSSOVER(C, ID1.SG1)

Where C is the Close (Last) for the bar and ID1 is the ID of the VWAP study.

hey John, I really do appreciate your help...i was wondering is there a way to set an alert when price crosses over 3 diff vwaps....what I found so far is this:

"Alert Formula For When 2 Study Subgraphs Cross: The following Simple Alert Condition Formula needs to be entered on one of the studies: =CROSSOVER(ID#.SG1, ID#.SG1,). ID# needs to be changed to the study ID of the study being referred to. For information about study IDs, refer to Referencing Other Studies on the Chart."


My thoughts would be =CROSSOVER(C,ID1.SG1, ID2.SG1,ID3.SG1)...would this be correct...also I dont know where the alert/language...ie i dont know which study to put the alert in.

I appreciate your help in advance.

For what you are wanting to do you would need the following formula:
=AND(CROSSOVER(C, ID1.SG1), CROSSOVER(C, ID2.SG1), CROSSOVER(C, ID3.SG1))

Refer to the information for alerts at the following link:

Thank you...does it matter what study I put the alert in? Should it be in each seperate VWAP study?

The VWAPs can be crossed in 2 different directions from below (long) and from above (short). You probably would want to have 2 different alert messages. If crossover happens from below for IDs 1, 2 and 3, then I think "Full Session VWAP Violated From Below" Alert 1 would need to go in Study ID3 (all 3 conditions met). If crossover happens from above for IDs 3, 2 and 1, then I think "Full Session VWAP Violated From Above" Alert 2 would need to go in Study ID1 (all 3 conditions met).

It does not matter what study you enter the alert on.

also I noticed there are some significant volume difference on the dom vsa volume by price..the first column with the arrow is a volume by price...the first circle is current total volume traded...the second circle is both the current trade bid volume and the total as volume...as expected the total bid volume + total ask volume ='s current traded total volume..but does not equal the total volume represtented in th volume by price...this is not isolated to that particulare price level if you look a couple of lines below it is significant...101 vs 44...please advise

With regards to the replay of the Trade DOM, refer to the following:
Replaying Charts: Replaying Trade DOM Windows

With regards to the Volume by Price, what you are comparing is very hard to get right. In order to have the values line up perfectly, you would have to reset the Current Traded columns exactly at the start of the period where the Volume by Price profile is starting.

So I was not able to figure our why the dom was choppy and jumping rather than running smoothly during the replay...can you please help....

also is there a way to highlight ie a different color the Recent Bid Volume if price trades below the bid as one can do in time and sale????

I am a little confused with the volume profile and the current total volume....so here is a picture of my dom...from left to right...there is a volume profile with a delta profile overlayed on top of it...at price 17971.50 it reads a delta of 375 . the next column is the total curernt volume which reads 98...the last 2 columns are the bid total current volume and the ask total current volume....added together they equal 98...as I said this is the first time we have trade here since 2/12/2024 how can the delta show 375 if the volume traded at price is only 98 contracts?

To some extent, this is just the nature of the replay. It is not a 100% exact reproduction of the live data. One of the things you can look into is the "Chart Update Interval" for that chart and see if decreasing it helps for this. Otherwise, you would need to go through the items at the following link and see if any of those can help:

There is not.

Most likely this is due to the fact that you are using a "Trade and Current Quote Symbol", so you are probably viewing the data in the DOM for the MNQ and your Volume Profile is for the NQ. Refer to the following:
Chart Settings: Trade and Current Quote Symbol (text box) (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol menu)

You would need to look at the settings for the Volume by Price profiles to ensure they are set to cover the exact same time frame and that the Inputs to display what you want are the same.

I am having extreme latency in my charts when i am trying to update or add studies...I have a brand new gaming computer with specs that far outweigh the sepcs called for by SC. For example I am clicking on the analysis menu and it is taking 3 seconds to show ...then i am picking on a study in a chart and it is taking 3 secods or so before the study comes up...I click okand it takes 3 or so seconds for the study menu to disappear...I have attached the chart here ...can you please advise on whats happening.

furthermore i have rebuilt the dom multiple times and the correct delta shows on it and then eventually if we get this push and a new hi or low the delta gets messed up...

With regards to the delta of 418, please get us that chart and tell us the date and time when you see that value and the Time Zone setting for the chart (if it is set to Use Global Time Zone, then we need to know your Global Time Zone). Refer to the following for how to get us a chart:
