Bill,

Just take the difference in bar time between the current and previous  
bar.  Make sure that bar time stamp is for the start of the bar in  
preferences.

It was just so that higher rate of volume is a higher bar like a  
volume histogram would be.

> Do you know how to calculate tick volume?

It is just the volume of each tick bar added together.  You would have  
to start out with a tick chart.  I don't think you could combine all  
types of charts without using Gfx.  This would take programming!

Best regards,
Dennis
