Hello all,

I'm currently leveraging footprint charts in ninjatrader 8, but was wondering if anyone had an indicator to assist in presenting volume profiles in a candlestick (example attached). Having a volume profile per candle would help me visually see volume distribution.

Thanks!

I tick 'Show as Profile'
I find it useful to show the liquidity pockets, and perhaps where there is the opposite. no interest...

You can show the volume profile + PoC on the RHS. Light blue profile and black PoC.

Data Series, Properties, Box outline, Color for Maximum Black and Color for volume Cornflower Blue.

On 30 minute bars the volume profile fills out and the PoC moves dynamically, but I'm not sure that it's predictive or usable, TBD.
