difference between the 1st minute and total volume.

I am starting a new thread as my previous was unclear.
I am looking for assistance in creating labels.
The labels use, as part of their calculation, the running difference between the 1st minute volume of the trading day and the total of daily volume.

My final goal is two labels.

One that reads:
As of 9:31am:
1min volume (@9:31) * premarket volume/yesterday's daily volume

And another that states:
Currently:
(current daily volume - 1min volume) * premarket volume/yesterday's daily volume

Thank you for your consideration.


FYI, premarket volume is defined as the volume between: 4-9:30am

sorry, still unclear,

"the running difference between the 1st minute volume of the trading day and the total of daily volume."

running difference, infers something is changing.
"between the 1st minute" infers to use just the 1st minute...
"total volume used from yesterday, does not change...
what is changing?


"1min volume (@9:31) * premarket volume/yesterday's daily volume"

what happens at minute 2?
0 ? add minute 1 to minute 2? just minute 2? keep minute 1?

Much appreciated. I will analyze how this code performs at market open tomorrow. I am grateful for a response. And I am laughing with humility in this coffee shop that my previous thread had to be removed for being so all over the place... yet, the team behind usethinkscript is still helping me. That goes a long way and I completed understand why y'all did that. I will be more concise with future posts. The value here is incredible.

Of course I used an AI chatbot to help me out with the code -- in my brain are two tiny ants clashing cymbals together when it comes to writing code from scratch (even though I've been working in tech for 6 years now -- I must stand on the shoulders of giants to get to where I need to go XD @useThinkScript

Thank you! @halcyonguy

I'll also try this one out at market open tomorrow -- and see the results of that in my scanner -- much appreciated that I got a response on this! @Joshua
