Net Volume
VolumeOwn panel belowNeeds volumeVolume drawn as a positive bar on up bars and a negative one on down bars.
What it looks like
Drawn by running the real calculation over one sample series. Open a symbol and it is recalculated on that symbol's bars.
How to read it
Nothing is accumulated — you see each day as it was, which lets you compare the volume of a big up day with a big down day on one scale.
Where it misleads
The sign comes from how the bar closed, not from the split of buying and selling inside it.
In SQMATE
One tap to add
Open a symbol, tap the name in the indicator list and it is drawn straight away. You can stack several copies of the same indicator with different settings.
Recalculated per timeframe
Switch between minute, hourly, daily, weekly or monthly bars and it is recalculated on that timeframe. The maths runs over every bar loaded, so zooming never moves the line.
Use it as a search condition
Some indicators can also be used as an axis when searching for symbols — for example, keeping only symbols above a given reading, scanned every night.
