VOLUME PROFILE indicator / settings for Daily, Weekly and Monthly charts??

[mdsvtr19]

Can someone please recommend an Indicator for NinjaTrader, that will plot Volume Profile on my chart - with the ability to get accurate readings when I have the Volume Profile indicator on various time-frame charts.......... a Daily chart, a Weekly chart and a Monthly chart

When looking at the ( Order Flow VOLUME PROFILE ) Indicator - regarding the ( Profile Period ), do i need to leave it set at 1 ?

I attached some images of the Volume Profile Indicator on various charts - with it "super-imposed" over the chart/candlesticks and then with the Volume Profile indicator plotted on the Right-hand side of the chart

I really appreciate the help
Want to make sure I have the Indicator setup properly, as to get correct readings from the Volume Profile Indicator, no matter what time-frame chart I'm looking at

Thanks so much

Hello mdsvtr19,


Thank you for your post.


The Order Flow Volume Profile indicator is capable of plotting several different profile types. What type of profile are you looking to see on your daily, weekly, and monthly charts? The profile period may be set to Sessions, Bars, Weeks, Months, or Composite (with options of weeks back, days back, a manual start date, chart, and visible screen range). Depending on which type of profile you are wanting to have plotted on your chart, the value for the Profile Period may vary. For more information about the different Profile Periods, please see the help guide section here:

We also have a couple of NinjaTrader blog posts that might be useful in identifying which type of profile you are looking to use:

I hope this information is useful. If you have more specific questions about a certain profile type and how to configure it after reviewing these resources, feel free to ask those questions here.

Thank you for using NinjaTrader.
