Hi members and support.. I would like to have transparent boxes around my value areas on my profiles. To me the market profile is more important than the volume profile but I would think/assume it's the same more or less from your side as the developers. I tried every setting I could think of. Only solution I found was to draw them myself. I attached a screenshot showing what I would like to do automatically, the red arrow points out my default, the green arrows shows what I do (which is just take a rectangle and highlight the value area and lock the drawing.. The white dots are the poor hi/lo please ignore. Having the value areas drawn and shaded like this makes seeing rotations much easier and it's much less distracting than lines. Appreciate any feedback as always, have a great day! |

You can do this using a couple of studies and another chart. In particular, do the following: - Create a new chart for the same symbol. - In that new chart add the "TPO Value Area Lines" study. Set the "TPO POC" Subgraph to "Hidden". Make sure the settings in this study match the settings in the TPO study to get the same Value Areas. - Add the "Study/Price Overlay" study to the TPO Chart and select the chart with the "TPO Value Area Lines" and overlay the "TPO Value Area Lines". - In the "Study/Price Overlay" set the Input for "Use Styles and Widths from Source Study" to "No". - In the "Subgraphs" tab for the "Study/Price Overlay", set the TPO VAH Draw Style to "Transparent Fill Rectangle Top". Set the TPO VAL Draw Style to "Transparent Fill Rectangle Bottom". - Set the Transparency level as you want in the "Transparency Level for Fill Styles". Refer to the following: TPO Value Area Lines Study/Price Overlay Study Chart Studies: Transparent Fill Rectangle Top (ACSIL: DRAWSTYLE_TRANSPARENT_FILL_RECTANGLE_TOP) and Transparent Fill Rectangle Bottom (ACSIL: DRAWSTYLE_TRANSPARENT_FILL_RECTANGLE_BOTTOM) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
