Howdy.

Are there any better TPO tools for NT8, that would allow for merging and splitting of TPO profiles, or separating each TPO in its own column?

Anyone familiar with Sierra's profile tools might have seen all these features in that platform.

Sierra Charts has all that features. Sierra is a very good platform , it takes just time to build your Workspace. To start with Sierra is hard but it´s worth it.

I agree that Sierra is more seamless once you get a hang of it, but NT has less of a learning curve. The newer versions of NT 8 seem to be more stable as well.
I use the TPO add on's ( for Ninja ) from rancho, works for me.

I have heard Windotrader is good as well, but they are a bit pricey for what they provide.

I can see in the images, they have the ability to display each TPO as its own bar.

In their description, it says, "Profiles can be merged/unmerged directly on the chart."

I assume this means you can take multiple Daily MPs... and smash them together? That is another functionality I am looking for.

It would be cool if I could split a profile... by that I mean... imagine a profile that had a double distribution... if I could cut it in the middle... This is less necessary, but do you know if that functionality is there?

You can explore these other providers too:

I think this guy @erwinbeckers is the developer of this MP tool:

This functionality is already available with Ninja drawing tools. Please see attached.

Yeah, that allows attaching a custom volume profile to a section of price.

What I was looking for was the ability to apply TPOs to a section of price.

I.e., market profile vs v0lume profile.


I am also looking for the ability to split/unsplit TPOs and also merge/unmerge TPOs.

Howdy.

I'm going to buy ONE of these packages in the next week or so, yours and the tradedevils one offer trials, so it will likely be one of the two.

I looked for it on your site, but do you have any NT8 videos posted anywhere?
