Volume By Price Indicator - Changing the Size of the Profile

View Count: 73

My settings for the Volume by Price Indicator on an intraday chart are multiple profiles based on time, time period for fixed time is 1, and time period type for fixed time is days. How do I decrease the size of the volume profile and get it to stay on one side of the chart without it covering over too many of the price bars? What inputs do you suggest that I change? Thanks for your help.

To change the amount of space that is taken up by a Volume by Price profile, refer to the following and the item below it:
Volume By Price Study: Maximum Volume Bar Width Type

Also, you can enable the option for "Lock Fill Space" which will create a space on the right that the bars will not display in. This allows you to keep the bars and the Volume Profile completely separate. Refer to the following:
Chart Menu: Lock Fill Space (Chart menu)
