Footprint Bar Statistics packages a set of per-candle order-flow metrics — delta, imbalance ratios, and more — into a compact info block attached to each bar.

Overview

Footprint Bar Statistics packages a set of per-candle order-flow metrics — including delta, imbalance ratios, and more — into a compact info block attached to each bar.

What's covered

  • What FPBS is — A per-bar statistics readout attached to footprint/candle bars: delta, total volume, buy/sell ratio, and similar figures displayed directly next to or on the bar. It is the footprint/candle equivalent of the TPO MP Statistics panel, so the figures describe one bar at a time rather than an entire profile.
  • Choose which statistics each row shows — Every row in the FPBS block is toggled independently and follows the same block/prefix pattern used elsewhere in the platform: your own label text plus the statistic type that row reports. This means the readout is built to match what you actually reference, rather than being a fixed list.
  • Where REKT and liquidation bubbles fit — The liquidation bubble display, covered in the REKT video, sits in the same per-bar order-flow toolkit and is discussed as part of the same footprint-statistics workflow; this video only places it alongside FPBS. The bubbles themselves are covered in that separate video.
  • Keeping the block readable — The more rows you pack onto a bar, the smaller the text gets and the more the bar crowds the chart, exactly as with MP Statistics. The practical recommendation is to keep 2–4 statistics that feed your process rather than enabling everything available.
