thanks for the advice. I understood the difference.
What i still dont get is, why there is this huge different in the shape of this composite VP when using Ninja Trader with CQG and Sierra Chart with Denali and CQG Routing.
According to Sierra Chart Tickdata is available back to 2011. So both is set to this start date.
It could be any of these:
- Each chart is including a different number of bars of data
- There is a difference in the settings or functions of each VP study
- There is a difference in data feeds
The two charts you posted are too dissimilar to determine what the issue is from them.
When making comparisons between charts, all settings, views, and functionality need to me the same.
Thanks for your reply. I ve tried to setup all identically now.
Both Charts has data loaded starting from 2011-06-01.
Volumeprofile is set up to 1 Tick Volume and to total volume. Volume profile drawing setup date for all bars in Charts. disregard "Duration start date" its changed to 2011-06-01.
If all settings and functions could be made equal, then it would be a difference of data feeds.
But you are comparing two different data feeds on two different platforms using two different VP studies.
Too many variables to come to any solid conclusion.
