Hi

I have a volume profile on my candles chart and i have 2 questions.

1- i want to to have it on the left of the screen instead of the right, so i go to the study settings and set "Right align volume bars" and set it to NO, but it doesn't do anything, it stays on the right of the screen.
How do i place the profile on the left of the screen ?

2- i want this profile to start at the beginning of each new week and finish at the end of the week, how do i set that up ?

Thank you in advance

1. There is not a specific option to align a volume profile to the left. However, there is this option which is like this:
Volume By Price Study: Always Display Last Profile Within View

2. Set this input to Weeks:
Volume By Price Study: Time Period Type for 'Fixed Time'

Hi

1. There is not a specific option to align a volume profile to the left. However, there is this option which is like this:

I thought because there is an option that says "right align volume bars yes/no " there would be a possibility to set the profile on the right, i want to have for example a weekly profile on the right and a monthly profile on the left.
The fixed range volume profile can be set on the left for example, but i have to manually draw the profile from point A to point B

2. Set this input to Weeks:

Thank you for this, what if i want to set it to last week, not current week, how do i do that?
i want the previous week profile on the chart, and i want to move to current week when we pass to next week, in other words it should automatically calculate volume for previous week.
How do i set it?

Thank you

2. Refer to:

This setting only applies when the Volume Graph Period Type Input setting is set to Multiple Profiles Based on Bar Count or Multiple Profiles Based on Fixed Time. It does not apply to any other Volume Graph Period Type.

I am not using multiple profiles, only one profile, and i want it set to previous week.

2. Set this input to Weeks:

by the way, this doesnt work, we started now a new week and the profile is still set to last week

Do you know why this is the case?:
by the way, this doesnt work, we started now a new week and the profile is still set to last week

This should not be the case. What is this Input set to?

Volume By Price Study: Number Of Periods Back To Reference

What Volume Graph Period Type are you using specifically?
