Hi guys,

I've been trying to find a Cumulative Volume Chart based on Time of Day. Similiar to what @DionysusToast / Jigsaw is using for Sierra. Relative Volume does this for a particular Candle, but not for accumulation of the day vs 30 days previous.

So if we usually (30 day avg) have 100K traded at 10am on ES, and we are at 150k then it would show 50K positive.

Has anyone seen or heard of anything like this? Or any ideas of where to look? I am not talking about Relative Volume Study in Sierra. That doesn't do accumulation.

Thanks so much!


Actually it does do accumulation:


Quoting 
Cumulative Volume Ratio Calculation
For each bar in the chart, the following calculation is done:

For each of the prior days being referenced as specified by the Period Input, the volume from the open for the day determined by the Session Times is added together for each chart bar up to and including to particular time being compared to on the current day. This value is called PriorDayCumulativeVolumeToTime and there is one for each day of the Period.

Each of these PriorDayCumulativeVolumeToTime values is averaged together. The result is: PriorDayAverageCumulativeVolumeToTime.

For the current day, the volume for each chart bar is added together from the open for the day as determined by the Session Times to the particular bar time being compared to. This is called CurrentDayCumulativeVolumeToTime.

The Cumulative Volume Ratio is calculated as: CurrentDayCumulativeVolumeToTime / PriorDayAverageCumulativeVolumeToTime

Just use the relative volume study and calculate the difference between Average Volume(SG4) vs Volume from a traditional volume study.

you could do this using "study subgraphs difference."

Adding historical market depth data to your data feed will be great(even at extra cost).

First post.

I'd respectfully request...

1. ability to set BG and text color for any column in the DOM. Especially price.
2. easier method to very quickly add user text comments to DOM rows.
3. display cumulative B/O delta on the DOM for the time period since last clearing the total volume at B and O
4. allow DOM window to be resized vertically without squashing the price scale. Maybe I just have not found the scale setting for this yet.
5. move working limit and stop orders by clicking on the price scale, rather than dragging the order handle.

Otherwise, SC is a beast. In a good way. It is truly amazing what you can configure.

If nobody volunteer to do it you can pay SC to do it
