Is there any indicator that can record and plot the
bid ask spread of an instrument in a histogram at a lower panel of the chart?
I want to see how much the bid /ask changes on the NANO BITCOIN FUTURE from COINBASE.
It would be cool to place this indicator on a SMALL
TICK CHART >> to see how much the bid ask spread changes.
BASICALLY --- JUST LIKE THE VOLUME INDICATOR >>>
Except just display the bid/ask spread per bar.
I guess if we place the indicator on a 1 tick chart it would show the b/a spread per each individual tick.
has this been done already?
Thank you in advance

Unless I am doing something wrong -- I only get ONE line with NO
gap in between to see the the
bid and ask difference.
