If your bars are setup to be 4 hours per bar, and you are wanting the Volume by Price to just be for the most recent bar. Then use a "Volume Graph Period Type" of "One Period Based on Bar Count". and set the "Number of Bars for 'Based on Bar Count'" to be "1". Refer to the following: Volume By Price Study: One Period Based On Bar Count Volume By Price Study: Number of Bars for 'Based On Bar Count' If the above is not what you are looking for, then we need more information on exactly what you are trying to do.

Thanks for the reply. What if I want it to start in 4h increments say 5:00, 9:00, 1:00 and so on. Is this possible?

If you do not mind multiple profiles, then you can use the "Volume Graph Period Type" of "Multiple Profiles Based on Fixed Time". Refer to the following: Volume By Price Study: Multiple Profiles Based on Fixed Time For a single profile, you can try the Volume Graph Period Type of "One Period From Most REcent Period Start to End", but this will probably not align to the exact times you are wanting. Refer to the following: Volume By Price Study: One Period from Most Recent Period Start to End Otherwise, to get a single profile for specific times, you would need to use one of the Volume Graph Period Types that lets you set the Start Time and possibly End Time, depending on what you are wanting. If you are always wanting the most recent period, then you will have to adjust the times as a new period comes around.
