OK, next step. go to text settings. under numbers to show do you have "none" selected? if yes, the candles will also be empty. try buys and sells or volume and delta
@yawaniga What tick size are you using for Mcx Crude? I'm using Global data feed. Have succeded in solving my problem but I don't know correct tick per price level for mcx crude.
but I would say you'll get arguments for both, higher and smaller time frames. I'm a firm believer that when trading order flow, it's more beneficial to use smaller time frames. I would like to see right away if there's an volume imbalance. it will give you a clearer picture than a higher tf candle that will include a lot of noise which is useless.
for example, someone has a huge buy order that will probably influence the price. what I used to do, is to buy a big chunk right away. and since I've enough size I can continue to buy at higher prices, knowing I've a pretty good base. and if there's enough volume at higher prices, I already have a decent lead (over the vwap). and if it should drop anyway, I still had the option to sell a portion and buying it back at lower prices. that kind of strategy is easier to spot on smaller tf imho.
of course that imbalance could be something else. it could be just the end of a larger order, meaning there will be no follow through.
I guess the point I'm trying to make is, if you wait too long, the move could already be over and you're too late.
for the reversals, I tend to do the same thing. the arrows might not show up on the same candle as the volume imbalance, but it's still a valuable confirmation.
Need some clarification as per new feature of this tool, On below chart got this Red Arrow to highlight reversal with some imbalance. But how can i understand this situation?
as per manual : Reversal indicator show potential reversals : they are shown when a certain number of conditions are met, concerning
Declining interest on one side
Imbalance on the oppositeside
Absence or presence of imbalance on the declining side. POC (price with maximum volume) in a favorable zone in the bar.
Total volume of the Declining Zone vs Total volume of the opposite zone
