Hello Team,

How can I remove these multiple large volume bars using the "edit data popup". Please see this screenshot https://prnt.sc/8uogogpvcecd

You would need to find the actual trades that caused that to occur and remove those trades. As you move through the data in that window, you are viewing each and every trade (or whatever your Intraday Data Storage Time Unit is set to).
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:

Hello John,

Would it be possible to never have those large annoying bars in the first place?

If you look at this screenshot https://prnt.sc/apjvafFHsjKF it's a lot of work to manually find and delete those bars. I hope it would be easy to incorporate such important feature for scalpers.

Thank You!

That is the data from the exchange. This has been confirmed multiple times. Most likely those are at the opening of a session, so you might want to look at changing your Session Times to not include those times where those are occurring.

A solution I found was to go to Chart Settings >> Data Limiting >> Volume Filter Settings and set Exclude >= to a large number, like 100,000.

This will filter out the very large trades at the open that skew the rest of the day's volume. It seems to work well for most symbols.

Setting the session time to something like 09:30:02 also works, but this value is reset any time you change the symbol (unless you modify the global settings for that symbol). Changing the session open time also affects the open price.

alternatively, scale the volume axis to where normal bars take e.g. 70% of the volume region, and ignore the fact that large bars go 10x beyond the displayed chart region height
