Hi,

Could you implement the feature so that the "Draw Volume Profile Tool" can be attached to the most recent bar and be updated in real time?

Optionally having the ability to have the profile displayed for the last n-bars would be nice too.

Just to make sure you are aware - both of these setups can be accomplished with the Volume by Price Study.

For the first, set the Volume Graph Period Type to From Start Date-Time To End and set your Start Time to whatever you want it to be. Refer to this setting here:
Volume By Price Study: From Start Time To End

For the second, set the Volume Graph Period Type to One Period Based On Bar Count. Refer to this setting here:
Volume By Price Study: One Period Based On Bar Count

In terms of implementing these into the Drawn Volume Profile, we add all suggestions to our list of work, but we cannot say when we will get to any specific implementation.
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:

Yes, the second feature is already implemented, thanks for pointing that out!

The first feature is indeed also implemented through the settings, and it is even possible to move the Start Time (and End Time) by dragging the edges of the Drawn Volume Profile. So this feature is implemented as well.

However, after having dragged the edges, or moved the Drawn Volume Profile, the borders (the dashed lines that you can mouseclick) of the Drawn Volume Profile seem to be out of sync.

So, it seems you only have to fix this bug!

A new feature that would be super convenient is if you would be able to move the Drawn Volume Profile over the chart.

Thanks
