FT71 ES Composite Profile

FT71 ES Composite Profiles - This is a chart of 405-minute bars.  The 405-min bars provide daily bars of only the day session data (whereas the normal daily bars include the overnight period).  A composite profile is added to the chart using the Profile Indicator setup with a "Time Per Profile" of "All Bars".  This forces the profile to include all the data in the viewing period of the chart.  This chart is setup with a viewing period of "05/16/08 to present" and may need to be adjusted going forward per FT71.  The Profile Indicator is also setup to provide automated peaks (or High Volume Nodes) in green and valleys (or Low Volume Nodes) in red.  A yellow line follows the current price.  The Fractal Indicator is also added to the chart to help identify and label relative highs and lows within the data.  To view videos on the Profile indicator, visit www.linnsoft.com/prof This chart requires Investor/RT Market Profile version.


FT71 ES Intraday (Day Session Profiles)

FT71 ES Intraday (Day Session Profiles) - This is a 3-minute candlestick chart of the ES with the day session volume profiles using the Profile Indicator.  The Profile Indicator is setup in such a way that, if the user changes the chart to use session 31, the profiles will be split into one profile for the overnight period and another for the day session period.  In the lower pane is the per-bar volume.  The light blue stepped line is the VWAP.  The slightly darker and smaller blue line is the midpoint of the day (this line requires Pro).   The yellow lines are the IB high and low (high and low of first 60 minutes).  The green line is previous day low.  Another green line for previous days high.  Orange line is previous days close.  Dotted green line is current days open.  This chart requires the Investor/RT Market Profile Professional.  Only one component, the blue midpoint of day, requires Pro version.  If you don't have Pro, that line will not show up but chart will import fine.
