Please help to answer the following.
1. How do I set mid point (halfback) for each individual 30 minutes TPO's ( I do have it set up the halfback for the whole profile and don't know how to set it up for individual bars)( You can also see in the attached Windotrader Blue that has a small horizontal bar that marks each individual bar's halfback)
2. The halfback for the whole profile doesn't move up or down as the market moves up or down and I have to refresh it every time to see the actual halfback for the whole profile. Pls advise how I can set it up so that I don't refresh it all the time when the market gets elongated etc.
3. In my Sierra chart set up the volume numerical numbers are align with the horizontal volume bars and often it is hard to read the volume when the market is moving fast. How can I set it up that the numerical numbers of the volume are in a separate column like at the WidotraderBlue ( See attached)

1. You need to set these Inputs:
Time Price Opportunity (TPO) Profile Charts: Highlight Sub Period Midpoint Letter/Block

And:
Time Price Opportunity (TPO) Profile Charts: TPO Midpoint Calculation Method

In Sierra Chart just a letter or block will be highlighted. There will not be a line.

2. We tested this and also examined the code, and the midpoint calculation is performed at every chart update. And does change as the profile is forming. You should definitely not see a different value immediately after recalculating the chart.

3. You can change the color and you can change the font size. All of this is explained here:
Volume By Price Study: Display Volume in Bars

And then you can also reduce the range of prices with Interactive Scale Range to prevent any overlap:
Chart Scale and Scale Adjusting: Interactive Scale Range - Expand/Compress Scale
