Some instruments does not provide any volume information, therefore, as a fixed volume profile user, I needed a fixed market profile indicator to use the same principles, regardless of whether the volumes are available or not.
This script draws a market profile histogram corresponding to price variations within a specific duration, you only need to specify Start and End date/time values to see the histogram on your chart.
Details
Two lines corresponding to highest/lowest prices are displayed around the histogram
The redline corresponds to the POC (point of control)
Options * Start calculation * End calculation * Bars number (histogram resolution, currently locked to a max value of 50 bars) * Display side/Width (allows to modify size of bars, to the left or to the right) * Bars/Borders/POC Color customization
Notes
This script will probably be updated (to add VAH/VAL zones, and maybe other options). However, some common market profile attributes have not been implemented yet since I don't really use them)
Release Notes
New update with some new options
You can now use 200 bars within a market profile area
A Heat color feature has been added with customization params
A background color can be added to the MP area (enabled by default)
Release Notes
