Iam using color coding on volume profile but cannot figure out how certain rows have two colors while rest of the rows have one color code per row.. Attached are my volume profiles and color coding used. at price 4175 for ES Futures Bids are brown and Asks are Green. Why does this row have two colors instead of one. Also attached are POC colors used in volume profile setup |

The reason why you are getting that particular coloring for that bar is because it is your Point of Control bar and you have the option for Highlight Point of Control set to Yes and you have the Bid Volume and Ask Volume Coloring Method set to something other than None.

but my point of control is way above in pink.. see screenshot 1 the line where it says 4623x5710 is not POC. i also have bid volume and ask color as IGNORE option. so i shouldnot see the green * brown colors as i have said ignore in Volume profile

In the Screen Shot you gave us in your first post, the volume level of "4623 x 5810" is the POC for the Volume Profile. There is a different POC for the TPO that is highlighted in pink, but unless you have the option for Point Of Control Highlight Based On Volume set to Yes, then the TPO POC will be different from the VbP POC. Note that you do not have any pink colored bars on the VbP. Refer to the following: Time Price Opportunity (TPO) Profile Charts: Point Of Control Highlight Based On Volume As to the Bid and Ask Volume coloring, setting the Subgraphs to Ignore does not change the coloring. It is the Input for Bid Volume and Ask Volume Coloring Method that controls whether they are colored or not. The Subgraph only defines the color itself.
