Hello,

I can't find a way to add the volume profile for the bid/ask on the chart dom (not the stand-alone dom). Also, is there away to add on the same chart dom the volume profile and the bid/ask volume profile (Agina, the Chart Dom and not the stand-alone dom)

Thank you

The processes are the same whether you are talking about the Trading (stand-alone) DOM or the Chart DOM.

To get the Bid and Ask Volume Profiles in the Chart DOM, select Trade >> Customize Chart/Trade DOM Columns and then select the column you want the profile to be displayed in and select the Show Volume Bars option. Refer to the information here:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Show Volume Bars (Trade >> Customize Chart/Trade DOM Columns)

We are not sure exactly what you are looking for from the second question, but we think you are asking how to get a regular Volume by Price profile displayed next to the Chart DOM. To do this, just set these two settings in the Volume by Price study:
- Right-Align Volume Profiles: Yes
- Align to Far Right: Yes

Refer to the information here:
Volume By Price Study: Right Aligning Volume Profiles with Space on Right Side of Chart

Is there a way to increase the VbP column width in the ChartDOM? Attached is an example from TOS and SC (too narrow to read)

What you are showing in the SC image is not a Volume by Price profile, but is just a histogram of the data in that particular Chart DOM column. To make that bigger, just stretch the size of the column. Refer to the information here:
