Volume Imprint

Volume Imprint (sometimes know as a Volume Footprint) is a very versatile study that provides multiple ways to look at volume distribution inside of a price candle. This study can be found under Study>Volume Based>Volume Imprint

There are 5 different ways to visualize the volume distribution:

  1. Profile - Displays a volume histogram using the given price interval.
  2. Bid/Ask - Displays a numerical view of the bid and ask volume using the given price interval.
  3. Ladder - Displays a price candle with a bid and ask volume histogram on the left/right sides.
  4. Delta - Displays a numerical view of the difference between the ask and bid volume (Delta) using the given price interval.
  5. Volume - Displays a numerical view of the volume using the given price interval.

The following screen shots show some examples of the different ways to visual the volume distribution
