@fado Here is the study to do what you wanted. It displays a label of the volume after the first 5 min and another label after the first 30 mins after the RTH open.

No, float numbers are not available via ThinkScript

Code:
# Volume Label - 5 min / 30 min
# tomsk
# 11.17.2019

input Start1 = 0930;
input End1   = 0935;
input End2   = 1000;

def Active5M  = SecondsFromTime(Start1) >= 0 and SecondsTillTime(End1)-1 >= 0;
def Active30M = SecondsFromTime(Start1) >= 0 and SecondsTillTime(End2)-1 >= 0;

def Today = GetDay() == GetLastDay();
def v5M  = if Today and...

Hi, thanks for this. It seems this v5M is different with different time frames.. for ex: 1 min chart, 3 min 4min and 5 min.. any idea why would it change?

Is there anyway I can get a watchlist column script that displays the first 5 minutes volume. I tried to modify this code to do that but came up with it only showing 0 all day. Thanks if you can
