NBCV is ID 5 and SG 37 is selling COT (in a nutshell) specifically it is "high pullback ask volume and bid volume difference." SG 38 is buying COT.
I'm using the following logic for selling (SG37) =and((ABS(ID5.SG37))>8*(ABS(ID5.SG38))) and this for buying =and((ABS(ID5.SG38))>8*(ABS(ID5.SG37)))
The logic works fine with the following exception
If SG37 or SG38 is zero it returns a positive or meets criteria and colors bar ie SG37 is zero(0) and SG38 is nine(9.) If not a zero the logic works as it should
For what I'm using this for ie color bar based on SG37 & 38 of the NBCV study I'm using this to eliminate having to show the NBCV study itself (takes up too much real estate on an M1 Bar chart
The problem is the COT data (SG37 & 38) has different thresholds of significance between 0200AM ET through 0900AM and 0900AM through the pit close. The majority of the time SG37 will be zero and 38 will have a number greater than zero, vice versa SG37 will have a negative number and 38 will be zero.
I'm still dialing this in. I have set the multiplier to as high as 20X but 20 times zero is obviously zero.
Are you versed/ skilled in SC syntax? I can pick away at it, more of a hack. I don't have access to spreadsheet studies through my SC platform
