* the volume traded on Up ticks will be returned if '''Build Volume On''' is set to '''Trade Volume''' | |||
* the number of Up ticks in the current bar will be returned if '''Build Volume On''' is set to '''Tick Count''' | |||
For time-based charts with resolutions of 1 day or more: | |||

Most data feeds provide only a limited history of volume and tick data; storing real-time feed data will ensure the availability of historical volume and tick data. | |||
The range of returned values is not limited by the MaxBarsBack setting. This keyword can return the value of any bar of the data series. | |||
