Numbers Bars Length of Highlighted Point of Control

Dear Support,

When highlighting the Point of Control in the Numbers Bars study is enabled, and the 'Volume Profile Bars Length Relative to All Visible Bars' option is set to Yes, the POC highlighting remains the same width as when the Relative Length is turned to no.

Can you please adjust the study in a way, where the POC always encloses/highlights the actual volume bar and adapts to the 'Vol Profile Bars Length Relative to All Visible Bars' setting?

Thank you in advance.

It's a bit more complicated than just the "Volume Profile Bars Length Relative to All Visible Bars". The POC highlight (and the Maximum and Minimum highlights) are always drawn across the entire width of the Numbers Bar - it is not actually adjusting to the volume widths at all. It just works out, of course, that for the POC the longest bar is the full width of the Numbers Bar as well.

Sorry again, but this is something that will have to wait until we have more time to dig into it.

Hi TicinoTrader!

When the "Volume Profile Bars Length Relative to All Visible Bars" option is set to 'Yes', I disable highlighting the POC in the "Numbers Bars" study itself and instead use another study "Volume Point of Control for Bars" to stike-out the POC with a thin line. May be you will find this idea useful and more ergonomic.

Otherwise when I use a text version of the same chart I switch-on the option "Highlight POC in ..." to draw it as a rectangle at a specific column of "Numbers Bars".

BTW, thanx for your YouTube channel and other professional stuff! I am your big fan!
