Hi, I got a reply from our development team that points out how we already do what you are asking and point to a neat tip:

"we added a few special tools that allow certain customizations. These were too complicated to explain to the users in general, but in some specific cases I can help. This request is a perfect example.

He wanted to start with the volume today filter without the %. This, as described in the help, looks at the number of shares traded today.

Then he wants to enter a value like "**P1000000" next to that icon. If he puts that in the min volume today field, he will only see stocks where the current price (in dollars) times the current volume (in shares) > 1,000,000. The shares came from the icon that he chose, and the price came from the "**P" prefix. He can change the part after the "**P" to any number he likes.

Of course, he could also do the same thing with the max volume today, to convert it into the max dollar volume today field. Here's an example which uses both. This strategy looks for stocks with a dollar volume today between 900,000 and 1,100,000.

Just paste that into the collaborate window.

A couple of notes:
1) This only works with TI Pro, not the web.
2) Make sure you use an upper case "P".
