How do I split the profile to show the 3 separate sessions: European, Asian, US session?

Profile 1: 08:00 - 12:30 GMT
Profile 2: 12:30 - 21:00 GMT
Profile 3: 21:00 - 07:59 GMT

Is it possible with this software?

Thank you.

Just 2 sessions only.

Refer to this page:
Chart Session Times

Although you can do manual splits as required:

FYI, this is something that Damon Pavlatos (prominent market profile educator/user, & husband to Linda B. Raschke) uses. If Sierra Chart incorporated this, and market profile users knew about it, I believe it would probably attract many more customers to Sierra Chart. I know I'd certainly be willing to #sierrachart #marketprofile each time I posted charts on Twitter if Sierra could incorporate users having multiple (beyond two) time frames for each Day TPO chart. Attached is an example of Damon's chart. Sierra would blow my mind if they incorporated this. :)

Really, would be amazing if Sierra Chart could incorporate this -- up to 5 static TPO session ranges + up to that many VBP's, with the ability to color and assign each TPO & VBP. See attached example (3 separate charts achieves this, but there are obvious big drawbacks to this). This would give the user the ultimate flexibility to analyze session data using market profile methods, making Sierra Chart undoubtedly #1 for market profile.

+1 The days of the one "overnight" session are long gone.

Yes, they are. Sierra has accommodated this by adding multiple custom time sessions in the TPO settings! Thanks SC!

Without sifting through the terrible documentation on trying to set these splits up - How is this done? I can obviously manually split between overnight and cash sessions but can we set it up from the get go?

I have tried custom sessions but it just turns to a mess
