Hi,

Having trouble finding the right settings to plot the volume profile with vah/val/poc on 30m candle or bar chart so that it plots for each 30m bar. Please let me know what the trick is. TIA

Thank you so much! Got it to work. Is there a way in which I can letter each 30m bar (TPO). So for example, opening 30m bar would be A, the next 30m bar would be B and so on. The letters could be placed on the hi/lo of each bar or run along the top or bottom of the screen. Please let me know what is possible. Thanks.

For this you need to use the TPO Profile Chart study:

I tried to creat the TPO chart below with no success. I used the instructions given below.There is no "Draw Volume Profile OUtline Only". Please let me know what I am not doing correctly.

Also, I would like to add TPO Bracket letters to a regular 30m candlestick chart of a 30m bid/ask footprint chart. I would like the letters to appear at the top or bottom of the chart. So for example, the first 30 bar would be "A", the second 30m bar would be "B" etc. How can i do this. Thanks for all your help.

This is an example of a TPO Profile Chart with a Volume by Price study displayed to the right of the TPO profiles. To achieve this, add the TPO Profile Chart and the Volume by Price studies to the chart. With the TPO Profile Chart, make sure to set the following Input: Percent Width for Volume Profile = 25. With the Volume by Price study, set the following inputs: Draw Volume Profile Outline Only = Yes , Display Volume in Bars = Total Volume.

To use the TPO Profile Chart feature you will require Sierra Chart service package 5.

To change your Sierra Chart service package, select "Help >> Account Control Panel" on the Sierra Chart program menu. On the displayed webpage, click on "Change Service Package".

The remaining service usage time on your account will be adjusted based upon the cost of the package you are changing to. If the new package is a higher-priced package, then the usage time will be reduced due to the higher price.

There is no charge for changing your Sierra Chart service package. Only your Sierra Chart account usage time ending date is adjusted.

This is not supported. The chart has to be a TPO Profile Chart.


Here are the instructions to use the TPO Profile Chart study:
Time Price Opportunity (TPO) Profile Charts: Basic Instructions


To display letters in their own columns, refer to:
Time Price Opportunity (TPO) Profile Charts: Displaying TPO Letters/Blocks for Subperiod in Own Column



We will correct the documentation which states:
Draw Volume Profile Outline Only = Yes ,

It was in reference to this particular chart setup:
