Dear programmers team, I would like to talk about the calculation of the tpo chart increment. I wonder why it is not possible, with the appropriate setting (attached file), to still display the VPOC on the same price range as per normal volume bar chart? How is this calculated? or asked differently: why are the VPOCs on two different prices the higher I set the number of tick increment? I wish there was a way for both volume based data to be displayed the same. Identical. At least for VPOC value high and low. thx for your response.

As long as the session times are the same and you have specified the Volume POC, you should get the same result. But we are confused by what we see for the Volume Profile for the trading day of December 20 (starting at 18:00 December 19). The Volume Profiles for those two days do not seem to match up, which indicates that the settings are not all the same.

Well, let us see, if this is a possibly setting error on my part.If so, Im sorry for bothering you again. please take a look at the further attached files if you have the time 1. both chart "contracts" are the same "data rule rolloverover" 2. both chart session times are the same 3. I have enabled the global curser, so you can see- even today the tpo vpoc are different in comparison to the VbP study

The Volume POC is going to change position with different Ticks per Volume Bar settings simply due to how the POC is determined - which is the highest volume bar out of all the bars. In the particular case of the Evening Session starting on December 19, 2022 at 18:00, the volumes are low enough such that the POC with an increment of 1 is very low in the profile, but when the Ticks per Volume Bar is changed to 5 it moves within the Value Area. There is nothing wrong here, it is simply the way the data is and the differences you will see sometimes. If you set all your profiles to have the same increment, then they will show the exact same information.
