Show the Volume traded per second, this parameter is used to identify phases when there is high intensity in negotiations;
Time(s)
Show the duration in seconds of the bar, this parameter is particularly useful for example in volume bars, as if a 10000-contract bar forms in 60 seconds it is significant while if it forms in 300 it is not.
Bar Ratio
Show High Ratio in bearish bars and Low Ratio in bullish bars;
High Ratio
Show the ratio between the value of the penultimate tick and the last tick in Ask, this value is useful for detecting any buyers' exhaustion, in fact a high value of High Ratio may indicate that there was little participation by aggressive buyers in the last tick compared to the previous tick;
Low Ratio
Show the ratio between the value of the penultimate tick and the last tick in Bid, this value is useful to detect possible sellers' exhaustion, in fact a high value of Low Ratio may indicate that there was little participation by aggressive sellers in the last tick compared to the previous tick;
