Side volume

The volume of the visible candles by price, at the right scale («Боковой объём» in the app): sells darker, buys lighter.

Side volume

  • The almost white bar is the POC: the most traded price of the visible part.
  • Brighter: the 70 % volume area (VAL…VAH).
  • It recalculates as you scroll and zoom: show a week and you get the week’s profile.
  • The POC and the edges of the 70 % area work as levels: price returns to them and bounces off them.
  • A gap in the profile (little volume): price passes such places quickly.
  • Price left the 70 % area and held: the start of a new range.

POC and VA lines («Линии POC и VA»)

Section titled “POC and VA lines («Линии POC и VA»)”

Horizontal POC, VAH and VAL lines across the whole chart. Default: on.

Where there are clusters (the last 30 days), the volume by level is exact, from trades. For other candles the volume is spread evenly over the candle’s range, which is an estimate. The legend shows the precision: «по сделкам» (from trades), «N % по сделкам» (N % from trades) or «оценка по свечам» (estimate from candles).
