I migrated from Investor RT/Market Delta to Sierra. Is there a way to set-up dynamic market profiles in sierra like you could on IRT/Market Delta ?

Thanks mattz for this video. Very visual and clear. Do you know if Sierra can draw a new profile automatically from the last pivot swing to the current price. Of course, i suppose you would need to use a zig zag indicator but i was wondering where would this secondary indicator need to be placed or referenced.

This is very method oriented, so I am not sure. I would prefer someone with a little more in depth knowledge of Market profile of to answer that om futures.io (formerly BMT). Alternatively, you can also drop an email to support (AT) Online Futures & Commodity Trading, Discount Commodities Broker Rithmic Feed Broker and we would make an effort to ask Sierra directly.

Yes it can, but you would use the manual menu tools to draw the profile and use your cursor to select the start/end point. I am not aware of a way to do it automatically based on swing high/low's.

Thanks,

The idea of using a zig zag + volume profile is well illustrated by LS Chad here: clickme

Here is a link to exactly what I am referring to. Just not sure if it is possible to set this up in sierra.

How does the Profile Indicator or Market Profile Chart form Dynamic profiles, and what do the two periods (MPB and BOP) represent? : [AUTOLINK]MarketDelta[/AUTOLINK] Support

@josh, I have unsuccessfully tried to setup the volume profile based on a selected region of a chart as it seems you have in the screenshot you shared below. Would you mind sharing your settings? Thanks

Would like to click and drag over a specific area and create a composite profile like the blue one in the above example. I do not want to have to enter specific start times in settings each time I want to draw one.
