Custom Thinkorswim Volume Indicator

Daily Avg: This tells you the daily average volume over the past 30 trading days.

Today: This tells you the current volume for the day.

%: The % in the third box tells you how the current volume relates to the average volume.

Avg 30 Bars: This tells you the average volume traded over the past 30 bars/candles. This differs from "Daily Avg" because this can be over any period of time, not just an entire day.

Current Bar: This tells you how the volume in the current bar relates to the average volume of the past 30 bars/candles.
