Hi Not sure if there is a way to fix this, but when I am trading on my 5m intraday chart I like to overlay a long term hologram volume profile to the far right side of my chart (see attached image). The problem is that even when I select "Maximum Width= 1" which is the minimum, if the profile is more than a few months from "start date to end" it sticks out way too far on my chart. Like you can see here I am using a VP Hologram from January 24th to present, and it covers half my screen even at "1" width setting. Is there a way to make this smaller so I can move all my chart right and have more screen real estate without having it all overlap? I know if I make the VP less time, then it gets smaller and smaller as there is less volumes accumulated, but I need a long term VP. I also have the same VP on my hourly chart which is no problem, but I like having it in the 5min chart as well. Thanks, Gabriel Date Time Of Last Edit: 2022-05-31 00:15:59

Sorry, I don't really know how to solve your issue, just noticed one different setting with mine, I use 'Window Width' instead of 'Period Length', it would more easier for me to control the profile width.

As noted by Tony - you need to use the combination of Maximum Volume Bar Width Type with the Maximum Volume Bar Width Percentage to setup the width of the Volume Profile as you want it. Also as noted, you probably will want to use a Maximum Volume Bar Width Type of Window Width in order to have better control over what you are doing.
