I was looking into volume labels for my watcher charts which are pretty small since I have one old 55" screen to work with. Saw in one script that they calculated the daily average volume for 30 days by summing each day individually, / by 30. Versus getting 4 weekly values, or one month. Perhaps this is a bad example if monthly and weekly values refer to real weeks and months. But ignoring that for the sake of argument, it wouldn't be worth considering at all if Thinkorswim is programmed to check on whether or not each value is going to change again. The daily volume values from the past aren't going to change, so it wouldn't need to recheck for updates from the servers or locally. But does it? Every frame? If so, ouch.
Just curious: How about plots? After getting beyond the portion of the plot which is going to see additional changes, ToS "could" just store those finalized values. Does anyone know if it constantly recalculates the whole plot?
