Volumetric bars now have a profile view to easily identify where the largest volumes occurred.

 

VolumetricProfile

 

 

Order Flow Volume Profile using large composite modes such as month will build from the start of the month rather than a month back from the current date.

Order Flow Volume Profile with a Price Profile Type will now show an O and a C to represent the open and close.

Order

Added option to match data series width for indicators using a bar plot style

Chart, Indicator

Feature #12303
