We can not say for certain, but in this case, you need to understand that the Volume by Price study is based on the bars for a chart. So when you use the "Reset Volume by Price" button, the profile is going to start building again, but it is doing so based on the most recent bar for that chart at that time. For example, if you have two charts, one with 1 minute bars and one with 5 minute bars and you were to reset both profiles at exactly 13:01:00 (right at the start of a new minute) then the profile on the 1 minute chart would be completely blank for an instant and then build up from that zero level. The profile on the 5 minute chart would start with data already present, as it is including data for the bar that started at 13:00:00. Even though a "Trading DOM" does not display bars, it still is a type of chart, and therefore has a concept of bars related to it. To minimize the effect you are seeing, you would need to set the bar period to something relatively short. To get an exact duplication, you would need to set the chart to 1 tick, although this will cause a fair amount of processing, so using something like 1 second would be better. You set this in the following for a chart - including the Trading DOM: Chart Settings: Bar Period Value (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Bar Period >> Intraday Chart Bar Period Settings) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
