Is there a way of figuring out what percentage of the volume is traded under the closing price of the day? Thank you

It depends on what you mean by possible.

To do this in an exact fashion, we would need to use tick data. And there isn't much tick data available in StockFinder.

We could approximate it by assigning all of the volume of each bar in an intraday time frame to its closing price and the looping back through the data every time the price changed to find out which bars had lower prices.

We could even do something a bit fancier and only assign a percentage of the volume of each bar equal to the percentage of the bar that is below the current price.

I can't think of a way to do this which wouldn't be fairly resource intensive, but we can probably create something as long as it doesn't need to be exact.

Hi bruce, 

 The first way sounds like what I'm looking for. What would the code be for a indicator like that?

 And is there a tutorial video for looping codes on stockfinder? 

Thank you so much

If you mean using tick data, I tried to explain in my previous response why this is not possible. About the closest we can get to this would be the last option given.

	Dim TotalVolume As Single = 0
	For i As Integer = 0 To CurrentIndex - StartBar
		Dim Top As Single = Price.High(i)
		If Price.Value > Price.High(i) Then
			BelowVolume += Volume.Value(i)

			BelowVolume += 0
		Else
			BelowVolume += Volume.Value(i) * _
				(Price.Value - Price.Low(i)) / _
				(Price.High(i) - Price.Low(i))
		End If
		TotalVolume += Volume.Value(i)
	Next
	If TotalVolume <> 0 Then
		Plot = 100 * BelowVolume / TotalVolume
	Else
		Plot = Single.NaN
	End If
Else
	Plot = Single.NaN
End If

Assigning all of the value of a bar based on the value of the close of the bar would only be slightly shorter.

I am trying to determine the latest float, percent shares held by insiders and total volume last 13 weeks. I added them to a chart, but no numbers are plotted or exported. How do I get the data to appear?
