I use the volume profile indicator from Discotrading and it has worked well. Customer service has been responsive the few times I have needed it and there seem to be regular updates including a beta for NT8. This indicator is less than half what the next cheapest option and it is packed with features. They offer a trial so I recommend you do that first. They also have a number of other indicators, some of which I intend to try. Hope this helps.
Why not use platforms that have Market Profile/Volume Profile as as a native feature? There are so many of them, and besides all the costs savings you will have, you don't need to worry about updates, technical issues and support of installation. How many out there bought so many indicators and afraid to admit that besides staring them they provided zero practical application.

I was not looking for the Volume?Market Profile.I`m interested in DOM and T&S indicators.If you don`t find useful it in your trading,well,everybody have different views of the market.My studies with Ninja,and i simply don`t have another couple of years to invest in studying numerous different platforms.
Traders,
they halted sales due to sanctions imposed over Russia. Does anyone know a way to get their software? ( https://discotrading.com/ ) Do they have a Russian website?
Hi Man, are you able to share a copy of the Dtrangevolumeprofile The website is down and the sales are off due to sanctions on Russia, I would appreciate if you can attach a copy as I would love to try it for 14 days as part of the evaluation
@jluisprieto's post, which contains an attached file of the requested software, has been deleted.
Probably it was meant just as an attempt to help someone out, but forum rules do not permit downloading of copyrighted material, which is a form of software piracy.
Please do not provide or request copies of commercial software on this forum.
Thanks.
Bob.

Understandable frustration -- Discotrading made a solid volume profile tool back in the day, but unfortunately that ship has sailed. The company was based in Russia and went dark after sanctions hit, and there's no sign they're coming back.
That said, I'd steer away from trying to get shared copies of licensed software. Beyond the licensing issues, you'd be running an unsupported build on a platform that's moved on significantly since then.
The good news is the volume profile area for NinjaTrader 8 has come a long way since Discotrading was active:
Free option: automated-trading.ch released a free Volume Profile indicator for NT8 (updated as recently as March 2025). It covers session profiles, bar-by-bar profiles, value area, POC, VAH/VAL -- most of what Discotrading offered.
Built-in: @NinjaTrader itself now has native Order Flow Volume Profile tools baked into the platform. If you have a Lifetime license, the full OrderFlow suite gives you solid profile capabilities without needing third-party add-ons.
Premium options: The automated-trading.ch crew also has an advanced version with ML-based profile classification if you want to go deeper.
Since you're trading CL, volume profile is absolutely one of the more useful tools for reading price acceptance and rejection around key levels. Any of these options should get you where you need to be without chasing down discontinued software.
