z: is the z-score
x: is the current volume
μ: is the mean volume
σ: is the standard deviation
Options include setting the bottom and top end of the deviation range. This will allow you to see a moderated uptick in volume as well as an extreme uptick. You can also choose the colors for the moderate bull/bear volume and extreme bull/bear volume.
