Hi Alan. I don't know about anybody else but I can see your volume bars quite clearly. They're somewhat transparent but actually it looks Cool to go along with the Funky color you've chosen for your chart to begin with. If you select a different background then your volume bars will show up different as do mine.... I guess to be Cool you need to sacrific but those neon bars look just fine IMHO... Some people are resistant to change but again I repeat that SC2 is fantastic...
