	Hey Chad, I've got an issue with my Value Area Indicator on my candle chart having different values than my MP chart. Is there a way to resolve this? thanks

JJ, there are a few different methods used for computing a "Value Area". That "Value Area Indicator" actually predates the Market Profile chart. You can find more information on how the VA indicator computes it's values here:

But it does not use the tpo-based method that the Market Profile chart does. If you want to match the MP values, use either the TPO Indicator or the Profile Indicator.

Good morning Chad,

I'm wondering if I can get the time and sales window to float? The only way I can find to bring it up is with the toolbar on my MP chart and can't find the option to float it.
Is there a way?
thanks
JJ

Right-click inside the Time/Sales window to bring up the T/S preferences. There is a "Floating Window" checkbox in there. Check it.

Why I couldn't see that I have no idea? Thanks.

Good morning Chad, does IRT have a market depth type of window graphically showing bid and ask at say 4 levels away from price? It's a feature I had in tradestation so just wondering if I have it now with IRT?
thanks

While Market Depth is not currently available in Investor/RT, it is on our short list. Look for it in the coming months.

Chad, love the gradient background!

Chad, is there a way to remove the open from an traditional bar? I just want HLC, not OHLC.
thanks

JJ,

We don't have a specific drawing style for "High Low Close". If you right-click in a chart and choose "type"...you'll see the different drawing styles available. What I did in the chart below, and this might work for you...I made the style "High Low Bars" and then added dots at the close (using a 1 period Moving Average on Close and drawing as dotted). You can import the definition below if you like.

Chad,
I am wondering why my charts on IRT do not match my esignal charts exact.
I have attached two pics . The curser is right at 8:40 on both charts and you will notice that the candles are not the same as far a range, open, and close. Both charts are exactly the same interval tick charts and they are both set to 24 hours. Should the candels not be exactly the same?
By the way they are both getting data from the same source so I dont think that's it.
