Hello, could you teach me how to set the VP to tick-by-tick mode? It would be best if there were a video tutorial. I couldn't find many answers to my previous questions because they were translated by an English translation software, and there might be discrepancies in the translation, so many of them were unfindable. It would be ideal if there were a video tutorial.

First, your underlying data needs to be stored at every tick. Check the following setting:
Data/Trade Service Settings: Intraday Data Storage Time Unit (Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Common Settings >> Common Settings)

Then in the Volume by Price study set the "Ticks per Volume Bar" to "1". Refer to the following:
Volume By Price Study: Ticks Per Volume Bar
