Plot Grid Lines

• By the default it is Unchecked.

• When enabled we get the vertical lines on either side of ladders.

• It creates visual boundaries for each profile/volume bar.

Plot Candlebars

No Plot

• Candlesticks or boxes will not appear between the bid and ask volume areas.

NT Plot(default)

• It show the candlesticks in between the bid/ask ladders and it letting you see both price action and order flow data together.

Box

• In between the ask/bid ladders the boxes will shown and a clear visual representation of price movement.

High/Low

• High/Low is selected, only the candle body (open-close range) is shown, and wicks (high-low) are hidden.

• This helps focus on core price action by eliminating tail noise caused by brief price spikes.

• It's useful in orderflow analysis where clarity of price aggression zones (bids vs asks) is more important than full candle structure.

High/Low/Close

• This mode displays the entire wick (high and low) along with the close price, enhancing visibility of price range and aggression points.

Overlay

• When “Overlay” is selected in Plot Candlebars, a zoomed candle is drawn over the bricks, including both body and wicks, to represent the full price range (high, low, open, close).

Default View Type

Bid x Ask (default)

• Based on bid/ask volume the color temperatures will be plotted on the bricks red (bid) & green (ask).

• Displays Bid Volume and Ask Volume side-by-side at each price level in the bar.

• More the volume background of brick will be lighter, lesser the volume background of brick will be darker.

Bid x Ask Histogram

• Draws histogram bars based on the volume at Bid and Ask — often shown as mirrored or stacked horizontal bars.

Bid x Ask Imbalance

• If the Bid or Ask volume exceeds the Bid/Ask Volume Imbalance Multiple, the background of the corresponding brick will be shaded — red for a Bid-side imbalance and green for an Ask-side imbalance.

Delta

• The Delta view displays the net difference between Buy (Ask) and Sell (Bid) volume at each price level within a bar.

• Delta = Ask Volume – Bid Volume

Delta PCT

• The delta Percentage (%) will be plotted.

• Delta % = [ max side (bid/ask) / Total Volume) ] × 100

Delta Shaded Volume

• It is the total delta volume shaded with color temperature (bid + ask).

Volume Histogram

• It will show the histobar (bid + ask) in the bar

Volume x Delta

• We get the total volume of the brick at the left and delta volume on the right side.

• Left side = volume histogram( bid + ask with histogram bar)

• Right side = volume x delta (ask - bid)

Value Area Calculation Method

TPO

• Calculates the Value Area based on Time Price Opportunities (TPOs) — essentially, the amount of time the market spent at each price.

Volume

• Calculates the Value Area based on volume traded at each price level.

• The range where the highest cumulative volume (e.g., 70%) was traded is considered the Value Area.

VWAP (default)

• When the Value Area Calculation Method is set to VWAP, the software builds the value area around the Volume Weighted Average Price, instead of a volume histogram-based POC center.

• This method expands outward from VWAP until a defined volume percentage (like 70%) is covered, offering a mean-reversion-centric perspective.

None

• Disables Value Area calculation entirely. No VAH/VAL/POC levels or shading will be shown.
