I am trying to make adjustments to my DOM chart. I have kept tick size at 0.25 but used the Market Depth Combine Increment in Ticks set to 2. These are my two issues, which I have marked up in the attached image: 1. No matter what I do, I cannot get the volume profile on the left to combine into two tick increments like the DOM by changing the "Ticks per volume bar" setting. 2. Ideally, I would not like to have any padding in the recent volume bars columns. Each should fill up the entire grid cell from top to bottom. It is easier for me to read that way. I only run into this issue when combining the market depth to 2 ticks. Thank you for your help. |

1. You should be able to get the Volume Profile to aggregate into 2 ticks by setting the "Ticks per Volume Bar" to "2". Make sure that after you change this that it is actually staying at 2. It looks like it is changing back to "1", although we do not know why this would be the case. If you have the "Volume at Price Multiplier" set to a value other than 1, then this will force the "Ticks per Volume Bar" to be that value, but it should not do this when it is set to 1. Let us know if it is actually set to 2 or if it keeps resetting to 1 for some reason. 2. We have noted this as a Feature Request. We have had others ask for the same thing, but we can not say when we would get to it.

Yes. I set the "Ticks per Volume Bar" to 2 and it automatically just resets to 1 when I hit apply. I confirmed that the "Volume at Price Multiplier" was set to 1 for this chart. Changing the "Volume at Price Multiplier" to 2 seems to produce the desired effect? |

When using a Volume by Price study on a Trading DOM, the Ticks per Volume Bar is always set to 1, which is why it is resetting on you. Sorry we did not notice this previously. In this case, you would need to change the "Volume at Price Multiplier" for that Trading DOM to "2" in order to get what you want.
