Is it possible to create a separate volume profile aligned with each "split out" 30 minute sub-period of a classic TPO chart? Or is the only option to use the numbers bars study, which is basically the same, but not in classic TPO format? Thank you.

Whenever you split a TPO profile, the two profiles from that split will each have their own Volume Profile if you have the Volume by Price study on the chart.

How are you doing the split?

I have at present simply: 1.) the TPO study with traditional settings(i.e. letter based 30 minute sub periods)with session time 09:30 EST to 16:14:59 EST, use Evening session 18:00:00 EST to 09:29:59 EST...and 2.) Traditional VbP study "Based on TPO Chart" w/ "Time Period Price for Fixed by Time"=1 and "Time Period Length for Fixed by Time"=1. This renders, of course, the classic, traditional cumulative volume histogram matching the TPO chart with a separate profile (both TPO and Volume) for each Session.

In answer to your question: I split them manually from Chart Shortcut Menu, sometimes for the whole day session ("Letters/Blocks in own Columns"), but sometimes at a specific point in the day I'll also manually split them into different segments("Split Profile Here") as per my particular desire for analysis at any given moment dynamically. It would be nice to be able to split at will and, whilst always retaining the main cumulative histogram for the session, be able to just isolate a volume profile for one particular "bar", especially the current bar in progress forming.

My immediate goal is to have a classic/cumulative profile for the whole session as well as one for the/each ( "an", ideally)sub period/"bar". Thank you.

correction to last post..." 2.) Traditional VbP study "Based on TPO Chart" w/ "Time Period Price for Fixed by Time"=1 " should read " 2.) Traditional VbP study "Based on TPO Chart" w/ "Time Period TYPE for Fixed by Time"=DAYS..sorry

Further clarification: "
My immediate goal is to have a classic/cumulative profile for the whole session as well as one for the/each ( "an", ideally)sub period/"bar"." should read: "
My immediate goal is to have a classic TPO letter chart with accompanying cumulative VOLUME profile for each WHOLE Session (separate Day and Evening) as well as one VbP profile for the/each ("an", ideally)sub period (30 min)/"bar".
Thanks again...sorry for confusion.

When you set a TPO Profile to display letters in their own column, there will not be a separate profile for each subperiod. Only when using the "Split Profile Here" command.

Eventually we will be adding the capability to add an independent Volume by Price study to a TPO Profile Chart which can be based upon the underlying data independent from the TPO Profile period length.

Has this feature been implemented? I'm looking to have an addt'l Volume by Price bar for the current period next to a TPO chart.

Yes. Refer to:

Does anyone know if I can add a volume profile for the current day TPO only and not all days. I already have a seperate Volume Profile for last 30 min period aligned to far right so I cant do it that way.

The only way to do it is to have 2 profiles on the right edge that are both independent from the TPOs. Refer to the following for how to "stack" VbPs on the right side:
