SC, There is an issue with displaying Mean Price and Standard Deviation Lines in VbP study. It simply doesn't work at all. As per documentation: 1. Draw Mode is set to: Volume Profiles & POC, VAH, VAL, VWAP Lines 2. Calculate Mean Price and Standard Deviation Bands set to Yes 3. Mean Price and Standard Deviation Lines Draw Style is set to Line Doesn't show any lines on Forex charts. Thanks.

It sounds like you have everything set correctly. Please verify each of the settings, especially that the Draw Mode is not set to Volume Profiles. Refer to the following for the correct settings: Volume By Price Study: Displaying Mean Price and Standard Deviation Lines If you continue to have a problem, attach your chartbook with just the one chart that shows the problem, to this post. Refer to the following for how to attach a chartbook: Support Board Posting Information: Providing Chartbook with Only a Single Chart For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing

User424077 it should be on a tick-based chart type.

John, attached is the chartbook where the issue is presented with two different VbP profiles that are setup to display Mean Price and Standard Deviation Bands as per documentation. Thanks Date Time Of Last Edit: 2019-04-11 14:23:19

For that data, in particular, the chart needs to be an Intraday chart. Change the following setting for that chart to Intraday Chart Only and then when you set it to Daily, it will retain the Intraday data and you will be able to display the extra lines: Chart Settings: Chart Data Type (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Data Limiting >> Date Range and Limiting Method menu) We will update the documentation to make a note of this in the section for displaying the Trade Weighted Mean Price and Standard Deviation Bands.
