5. VA % -
Altering the percentage value of this setting allows you to adjust the calculation method that is used to calculate the VA on your chart for candles and ranges as a whole. (Recommended values are 68 and 70 %)
6. Show POC -
Enable this setting to highlight the POC of each candle printed in a red colouring so that it is clearly visible. The POC will be calculated based on the current selected tick size for your chart. (colouring can be adjusted in the "Colors" Setting.)
7. Use raw POC -
Using the Raw POC setting allows you to readjust the POC of each printed candle to be based off the amount of volume transacted based on 1 tick of the trading asset.
