Can you be more specific on what you want to do?

Please give an example, or draw an illustration on a chart?

Open a 1 Tick chart with ->Settings->Chart Settings->Quote Field : Bid
then ticks returns the bidsize, not the trade size.

Code: Select all

if lastbaronchart_s then
print ( FormatTime ("HH:mm:ss",el_timetodatetime_s (time_s)) , ", insidebid : ",
close, ", inside bid volume :", ticks );
