Hi there,

Standard Deviation (SD) cannot be overlaid on the volume indicator (it opens in a new window), would it be possible to code an indicator so that I can create a strategy which reads the standard deviation of the volume?

Thanks

Hi,

sthg like that?
```
x=STD[20](volume)

return volume as "volume" style(histogram), x as "standard deviation of volume"
```

Thanks, not sure if my lack of experience with ProRealCode is holding me back, but I can’t get it to work.
When I click add to the indicator I get the following error:

“Line 3 characters missing. Suggestions: End of code”

Thanks

Sorry, my bad, I jumped the gun on a couple of new features first deployed on PRT soft to be followed by other PRT accounts:

– Allow out-of-order options for indicator return and backtest graph & graphonprice

– Allow out-of-order drawing options

As I was checking these were deployed on an IG demo account yesterday, I thought by now it was deployed everywhere. Apparently not yet. Wait for a few more days and order of options in the “return” line shouldn’t matter anymore on your account too.
