File Name: BidAskAnalysis.efs
Description:
This study is set up to analyze Bid Ask data in a variety of ways, which can be configured by the user through the Edit Studies option. The study can be used to analyze tick or volume data for each bar or on a cumulative basis. The displayed results can also be viewed as the raw outputs or on a relative percentage basis to the total.
Formula Parameters:
- Analysis: Bar [Bar, Cumulative]
- Study Output: Raw Data [Relative Percent, Raw Data]
- Source: Volume [Tick, Volume]
- Trade Volume Filter: 0
- Ask Color: green
- Inside Color: black
- Bid Color: red
- Total Color: lime
- Ask Thickness: 8
- Inside Thickness: 6
- Bid Thickness: 4
- Display Ask: Yes [Yes, No]
- Display Inside: Yes [Yes, No]
- Display Bid: Yes [Yes, No]
- Display Total: Yes [Yes, No]
Notes:
This study only processes real time data. Historical Bid/Ask information is not currently exposed for historical processing in EFS. The study will collect and display its results going forward in time from bar zero after it has been applied to the Advanced chart.
Some other possible combinations include:
- Raw Data: Volume (Cumulative)
- Raw Data: Tick (Bar)
- Raw Data: Tick (Cumulative)
- Relative Percent: Volume (Bar)
- Relative Percent: Volume (Cumulative)
- Relative Percent: Tick (Bar)
- Relative Percent: Tick (Cumulative)
Version 2.0 11/26/2004
Added Trade Volume Filter. Trade Volume less than the Filter number will be excluded when Srouce is set to Volume.
