Auction Market Theory and Market Profile

I'm running a volume profile indicator and have to set the number of previous days I wish to profile.

The problem is that when I set 100 days, for example, some charts will load the 100 days correctly whilst another will only load 40-50 profiles. However when I come back to the chart after a few days, all profiles are populated correctly.

Seems to me that there is a refresh error, or something, which prevents all the required profiles from loading.

Anyone have any solutions?

Thanks, MC

Everyone here seems to have their own opinion why they use TPO vs. volume profile, whats yours?

VP is easier to understand, there is no point searching for hidden meaning because there is none.

What you can tell from a chart is limited.

Markets aren't random but they appear to at times move in random ways because you can't know the intentions of all participants.

You either have an edge or you don't, nothing else matters.

You want to have setups which give you an edge, and for that you don't need TPO which is just extra information for no good reason.

What you need to know is win rates, risk/reward etc.

I respect your opinion but I still agree with mzvega and all her valid argument about TPO's. We don't need to go any further.

Volume profile is easier and more friendly.

I love the knowledge in this thread, its geared towards analytical/sophisticated traders specially amvt definitely not for everyone. But what makes amvt so interesting is its actually backed with 40 years worth of research from cisco. The vast information they represent dwarfs any opinions on which profile is better to use and most importantly "why". The only downside is you actually need to do some research to find out. I now truly understand mzvega frustration on babysitting this thread because no one is willing to take the time to read/comprehend the information. This has to be the most underrated thread in ff.

Have experienced this one too with some MT4 indicators. I have really fast computers, so it can not be a processor bottleneck or such alike.

At some point I was so fed up with the whole MT4 debacle, that I do all the calculations in Excel

Hi guys!

Sorry for the dumb question - does any one of you know a version of these TPOs that run on the new mt4 (build609)?

Thank you!

Hard work. Quickly does not work. And besides you who are interested in a little.

Dam that is a bit annoying, it is populating over time, but it is random and I can't seem to get a handle on the why.

Cheers for the insight
