so if you go on any of the trading view built in market profiles, you will notice the volume profile is split into 2 colors apparently showing some kind of buy and sell volume. Trading view does not let us see the code for their built in volume profile so we cant see exactly how they calculate the buying and selling portions. we have a thread that has split colored regular volume candles (the split formula is based on high, low, close of the candle) that i enjoy very much. hoping we have or can get something like one of these for thinkorswim. i dont need anything else extra on the volume profile besides the split colored candles, but cant get a source to show code to see how they do it
 
Hi, sorry since I'm new, I could only facilitate the code so that I can get the volume as a percentage as I show it below, I'm operating at 1 minute, thank you.
i can't hit it even though it looks in the graph like a lapel, green and red
 
Hello guys,

I am looking for some help with the code on this volume indicator, it works alright on time charts but I haven't been able to make it work on a range chart. If anybody have an idea on how to make it work on a range chart please help.
Ruby: 
declare lower;

input period = AggregationPeriod.DAY;
input lengthB = 9;
input lengthS = 9;
input averageType = AverageType.EXPONENTIAL;

# Buying Volume

def O1 = open(period = period);
def H1 = high(period = period);
def C1 = close(period = period);
def L1 = low(period = period);
def V1 = volume(period = period);
def BV = V1 * ((C1 - L1) / (H1 - L1));
def Buy = MovingAverage (averageType, BV,lengthB);
plot BuyVol = ExpAverage (Buy, LengthB);

# Selling Volume

def O = open(period = period);
def H = high(period = period);
def C = close(period = period);
def L = low(period = period);
def V = volume(period = period);
def SV = -V * ((H - C) / (H - L));
def Sell = MovingAverage (averageType, -SV, lengthS);
plot SellVol = ExpAverage (Sell, LengthS);

# Signal

input showBreakoutSignals = no;

plot UpSignal = BuyVol+1 crosses above SellVol;
plot DownSignal = BuyVol-1 crosses below SellVol;

UpSignal.SetHiding(!showBreakoutSignals);
DownSignal.SetHiding(!showBreakoutSignals);

UpSignal.SetDefaultColor(Color.UPTICK);
UpSignal.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_UP);
DownSignal.SetDefaultColor(Color.DOWNTICK);
DownSignal.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_DOWN);

@renydiver The issue is that Range Charts don't support Secondary Aggregations... The reason being that Range Bars are not based on time but, rather, price movement, just as tick based charts rely on trade transaction counts... There is no remedy for this inherent constraint...

Does someone know if the code below is correct? I took a label code for RVol that was posted on here and I was playing with it to see if I could utilize it with avg b/s vol. I think it's wrong though, the result looks nothing like my other buy sell volume data and the numbers seem too high on the buy and sell volume. Any input would be wonderful :)

I fixed it nevermind.. the premarket volume wasn't added in properly for the buy and sell vol. I posted it below in case anyone's interested. Please let me know if there's a problem with it, I'm not very experienced and I'd love to improve it.

(I edited this to correct a code mistake or two)

So i have this code for buy & sell volume and need to create a label for the upper chart that displays which vol type is currently showing and label should be painted green for bvol and red for svol. Appreciate if anyone can help me with this.

Code: 
input length = 5;
def o = open;
def h = high;
def l = low;
def c = close;
def v = volume;
def bvolsum = Sum(((c - l) / (h - l)) * v, length);
def svolsum = Sum(((h - c) / (h - l)) * v, length);

Thanks for posting, any way to change the audio alert? I looked over the code and did not see it listed so I am guessing it's TOS default?

Is there any way to take out those icons for Earnings and Dividend info between the Symbol and the rest of watchlist? I'd like to put that space to better use.
