Profile Aggregation for dealing with increased volatility | Usability Improvement | UI

Post by magicdonkeyempor » Wed Mar 09, 2022 6:35 am

Normally when you view the Cumulative Volume Profile, it looks like this:
1-Zoomed in CVP.jpg

Here we can see volumes for each price
although due to the high volatility, it's impossible to see actual price action

If we zoom out to a reasonable level, compressing the y[price]-axis,
then we get:
2-Visible Price action at appropriate zoom.jpg

Here we can see the entire profile in detail
 - fantastic

However, sometimes we want to get an idea of profile sizes at aggregated tick sizes
 - e.g. 2/5/10 ticks etc

You've already done this for numbers:

Please can this be an OPTION for aggregation of the graphical profile
 - e.g. via a tick box somewhere

Note: I say OPTION, as sometimes it's useful to see the full profile details
 - other times, it's better to see the aggregated profile
 - depending on price action context!

Alternatively you could just add a toggle tick box for aggregating the entire price axis
to keep everything simple & uniform:
