Does anyone know or can someone explain why Sim22's Delta Package V3 NT8.0.2 with COT... has wicks on Delta bars? If Delta is Bid minus Ask what's the wick?

Wouldn't the wick simply be showing you the "evolution" of the Delta as it changed (from positive/negative to slightly less positive/negative) during the time the bar was "open"?

Thanks Botts. You appear to be correct. It appears the wicks show the highest number of Buyers and Sellers per bar with the Delta being the final bar.
To remove the wicks remove the outline.
I compared it with gomi's Delta Volume and they are virtually identical.
