Hello, I have the following config under Global Settings >> Symbol Settings: Apply Intraday Session Times To Intraday Chart: Yes GC Time Zone: New York Session Start Time: 8:20:00 Session End Time: 13:29:59 Evening Start Time: 18:00:00 Evening End Time: 17:59:59 Use Evening Session Times: Yes ES Time Zone: New York Session Start Time: 9:30:00 Session End Time: 16:14:59 Evening Start Time: 18:00:00 Evening End Time: 17:59:59 Use Evening Session Times: Yes I have an intra-day chart where I analyse GC and ES (I change symbols with Quote Board) and I have Volume By Price Study there. I have the following settings for VbP: 33: Volume Graph Period Type: Multiple Profiles based On Fixed Time 34: Time Period Type for ‘Fixed Time”: Days After selecting symbol from the Quote Board, I would like to see only the Session periodic Volume Profile, so after selecting ES I’d like to see profiles for 9:30-16:15 and after selecting GC, I’d like to see profiles for 8:20 - 13:30. Is it doable? I tried changing “42: Use Separate Profile For Evening Session”, but when set to No, I get 24h profile 18:00 - 17:59 and when set to Yes, I get two profiles 24h and for Session. I would like to have only Session profiles. Unchecking Chart >> Use Evening / Full Session is not an option as I’d like to see all candles. Thanks in advance, Przemek Date Time Of Last Edit: 2026-01-20 13:51:32

The first thing is that your Evening Session times are incorrect. For GC for example, you need to set the following Session Times: - Session Start Time: 8:20:00 - Session End Time: 13:29:59 - Evening Start Time: 13:30:00 - Evening End Time: 08:19:59 - Use Evening Session Times: Yes If you want just a single profile for the current session, then set the "Volume Graph Period Type" to "Trading Day Start Time to End - Reset at Day Session". Refer to the following: Volume By Price Study: Trading Day Start Time to End - Reset at Day Session If you want to keep the most recent regular trading hours profile displayed regardless of the actual time, then the only option for this is to set the "Volume Graph Period Type" to "Multiple Profiles Based on Fixed Time" and set the fixed time to 1 day. You will need to set the following as well: - Use Separate Profile for Evening Session: Yes - Exclude Evening Session Profiles Except for Last Day: Yes There is not a way to get exactly what you want. The above are the options that will get you closest and allow you to switch between symbols and have the profiles update accordingly.
