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).

FT71 ES Composite Profile

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.

Profiling Market Moves: Dynamic Zig Zag Profiles

This video demonstrates how to form dynamic volume profiles of market moves identified by the Zig Zag Indicator. In this case, we take moves of $5 or greater on the ES and construct volume at price profiles. Zig Zag based Signals are used to dictate the start and end of each profile, but this dynamic profile concept can be expanded beyond the use of Zig Zags. Any condition that can be represented with a Signal can be used to identify the start and end of Profiles.
