Post From: Volume Profile and TPO Chart discrepancy

Just to clarify what I meant was the Volume Value Area within the TPO (on the right) should be the same as the Volume Profile should it not? The TPO would definitely differ, that I understand but the Volume Value Area within it should be using the same 70% inputs the calculate.

They will only be the same if the time coverage for both items are the same and you set the option on the TPO Profile for "Value Area Highlight Based on Volume" to be "Yes". Refer to the following:
Time Price Opportunity (TPO) Profile Charts: Value Area Highlight Based On Volume

To make sure you have the same time coverage, the charts need to have the same Session Times. Refer to the following:
Chart Session Times

And then there are Inputs for each study to control whether you are displaying the Evening Session or not. You would need to ensure that these are set the same way. Refer to the following:
Volume By Price Study: Exclude Evening Session Profiles Except for Last Day
