Post From: Extended VPOC line longer/shorter than expected

No I used "Intraday Chart only". I assume that means also daily bars are built based on intraday and not historical data. Because I switched all symbols to Teton I send you two new screenshots of MESH25_FUT_CME. Both charts are using:

Data Type: Intraday Chart only
only RTH data 9:30:00 - 16:59:59

Volume Graph Time period Type - One Period at End of Fixed Time Length - Auto-Skip Empty Days
Time Period Type for Fixed Time - Days
Time Period Length for Fixed Time - 20
Extend POC - End Of Period

I would expect that this VPOC line covers 20 days of data when using a fixed time period of 20 days regardless if I use a 15 min/30min/60min or daily bars

The screenshots are from the same chart. But in the 30min chart the extended VPOC line covers 21 days instead of 20. When I click on the "Daily" button in the control bar the VPOC line covers suddenly only 15 days. Why?

Sorry for my questions but I'm new to Sierra and the learning curve is very steep. But when you finally understand how it works it's a very very powerful piece of software! Currently I'm testing only in Sim but yesterday I tried to place orders on Teton in the last 10 seconds before the close and there were absolutely no delays. In Tradestation I saw sometimes delays up to 30 seconds for an order confirmation at this time(or in fast markets). It seems you did a very good job ;-)
