Previous Volume bar [1] greater than Volume bar [2]

[tradeking313]

hello. Need help writing a code stating (while on the 5 minute chart) that the previous 15 minute volume bar[1] is greater than the volume bar two bars ago[2]...
I cant seem to get the code to work..

Something like this may work for you:

declare upper;

def V = volume(period = AggregationPeriod.FIFTEEN_MIN);

addLabel(V[1] > V[2], "15m Volume Increasing", color.green);
addLabel(V[1] < V[2], "15m Volume Decreasing", color.red);
addLabel(V[1] == V[2], "15m Volume Neutral", color.gray);

-mashume

How could I switch it to work on a 30min TF with the previous 10min volume?

A common error when using MTF indicators is trying to use a time frame that is lower than the chart you are posting it on.
On the TOS platform, you can display data from a higher timeframe onto a lower timeframe but not the other way around.

As such, you can overlay 30min on the 10min chart by changing the aggregation setting.
But the ToS platform does not allow you to overlay 10min data on the 30min chart.
