I don't understand your reference to "Explorer" and you don't mention which
charting program you're using, but if you're referring to TS and using Daily
charts, you can use the term "Volume" in any Indicator/Study.  (i.e. If
Volume > 100000 then ... )
   
If you're using Intraday charts, you need to Select the "Volume/Trade
Volume" button in the "Format Price Data" dialog box-- otherwise it will
default to tick-volume.  In this case, you will also need to refer to
"Upticks + Downticks" to reference the total volume for a specific bar, due
to a known bug in TS.  (i.e. If (Upticks + Downticks) > 10 then ... )
