Frequently Asked Questions

ta.iii is the Intraday Intensity Index series, relating where the close falls within the bar to volume, using the close relative to the bar midpoint, rather than the change from the prior close.

The reference formula is ((2 × close - high - low) / (high - low)) × volume. Volume multiplies the close-location ratio; it is not in the denominator. A zero bar range or missing volume needs an explicit policy in custom calculations.

Use III with price action: sustained positive values on rallies or negative on declines can confirm direction; divergences vs price may warn of fading pressure.
