What it does

  • ALL of the tool's features: histogram, POC/VAH/VAL, silhouette, volume highlights (peaks), full DELTA and level text.
  • PERIOD: full session (18:00→17:00) · RTH only (9:30–16:00) · ETH only (overnight).
  • Up to 30 days of profiles (one per session); re-anchors on every candle and at day rollover.
  • Untouchable on the chart: clicks pass through (the hand drags as usual).
