Volume Profile / Delta
The Volume Profile tool as an INDICATOR, anchored to the session.
Real example in the platform
Volume Profile / Delta on the NQ, 1-minute candles built from real ticks (October 16, 2026, Rithmic feed) — a screenshot of the platform itself, factory settings.

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).
Options
- Volume Profile and Delta tabs with every tool setting + width as % of the session (zoomed out).
