Print Page - Calculating volumes from ticker data

Hello people!

I have an simple app on Google Play that allow you to see value charts of all major USD exchanges. I want to revamp it now, add some new features and turn it into a better app.

One of these improvements is displaying volume data. I have around one year worth of ticker data, it displays volume numbers in huge amounts, so I don't know how to use these numbers to display on an bar chart over a specific amount of time. I have values collected every minute...

Any help will be appreciated, sorry if I posted on the wrong board! ;)

@bounst: Thanks for the quick reply! So, my problem is that sometimes there is a decrease in volume, here is a sample from BTC-e ticker:

Code:

You can see that from the 2nd set to the 3rd, the volume lowered from ~989922 to ~985727, and I don't know how to represent it...

Sorry if I'm being a little dumb, but i could no understand your post very well... In the case above (2nd to 3rd line volumes) how could I display the correct volume between them, as they are a little above 1 minute from each other?
