Cameron,

You must first define "a spike in volume". 

For the sake of argument let's define it as volume greater than its 
fifty day moving average. The indicator would then be:

Spike:=V > mov(V,50,s);
Spike;

Go into the indicator builder and go to new. Enter the code. 
>From the indicator select the indicator. When asked overlay without 
scale. Once the indicator has been plotted you may wish to change the 
style to a histogram.

I believe this is covered in the formula primer which is in the files 
section and also at the equis site.
