#* '''Bid x Ask Volume'''<br><div style="background-color: #E5F6FF;">'''Example''': '''0x56''', where '''0''' is SELL volume and '''56''' is BUY volume. </div>
#:* If '''Total Volume''' and '''Displayed as a percentage''' are selected, the whole bar represents 100% of used volume, each part of the bar represents a particular % of used volume respectively.
#:* If '''Delta (Ask – Bid Volume)''' is selected and '''Displayed as a percentage''' is checked, then a higher value between BUY and SELL volume of a particular box is taken, then it is multiplied by 100 and divided by total volume of this box.<br><div style="background-color: #E5F6FF;">'''Example''': BUY volume = 180, SELL volume = 30. The percentage of the box is calculated this way: (180 x 100) / (180 + 30) = 85,71%. Note that for '''Delta (Ask – Bid Volume)''' the percentage is shown for each box individually, not for the whole bar.</div>
