Improved Value Area Marking for Volume Cluster/Footprint Chart

First of all, thank you to the ATAS platform for full support for cryptocurrency, and we greatly appreciate that your advanced charting tools, including footprint/cluster charts, are provided free of cost for crypto markets. This generous offering significantly enhances the trading experience for crypto traders.

Issue: Currently, the ATAS platform allows users to set a background color for the Value Area (VA) in the volume cluster/footprint chart, with an option to adjust the transparency of the marking color. However, this feature presents a challenge:

• If the VA color is set to fully transparent, the Value Area becomes invisible, which is not ideal.

• If the VA color is set to partially transparent, it still mixes with the cluster's background color, making it difficult to distinguish the Value Area clearly from the cluster itself.

Suggested Improvement: Here is an alternative method for marking the Value Area that avoids these issues:

• Instead of using a transparent background color, implement two small arrows placed on the left side of the bar to mark the boundaries of the Value Area.

• Draw a horizontal dotted line from these arrows across the bar, clearly indicating the Value Area without overlapping with the cluster's color.

This approach will provide a cleaner and more distinguishable way to mark the Value Area, addressing the issues caused by transparency settings.

Thank you!!
