Hi, I have two different Bund charts with the same VbP study settings. Nevertheless I get some differences in the volume numbers. You can see at the lows of today on the one chart it's 2416x1863@174.47 price vs 2416x1731. And @174.46 it's 444x629 on one chart and 444x761 on the other. I have searched all kind of settings and they are the same between both charts. What might be the issue? http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1626373100246.png http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1626373424429.png Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-07-15 18:24:02

Assuming that the images were taken about the same time, that would mean that your Time Zones are set differently for the two charts. You would then need to ensure that the Session Times are set to match each other based on the time zones for the charts. This would be our best guess for what the issue may be. But, there are numerous things to check to see what may be different between the two. You really need to sift through both the Chart Settings and the Study Settings to ensure that everything is exactly the same, relative to the way each chart is setup.

I've already checked time zones and session times between the two. And also checked the study settings. But it's not only that. If I go to a specific price swing and draw a volume profile which refers only to the specific price swing there are differences. And in this case it definitely doesn't have to do with time zones etc. For this specific case I have the following screenshots. http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1626374430803.png http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=162637449717.png

You have the following setting set differently for the two charts which is the cause of the difference: Chart Settings: Combine Trades into Original Summary Trade (Data Feed and Exchange Specific) (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Chart Data >> Chart Data menu) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing
