Independent Tick Size Settings for Current and Historical Market Profiles

Hello ATAS Team,

I would like to suggest an improvement for the Market Profile indicator.

Currently, the tick size used in the chart also affects the tick size calculation of Market Profiles (Previous Day, Previous Week, etc.). This creates a limitation when analyzing different profile periods.

Example 1 – Nasdaq (NQ)

I often use:

  • Chart Tick Size: 3

  • Previous Day Market Profile: 1

However, if I change the chart tick size to 3, the Previous Day Market Profile is also recalculated using tick size 3, which changes the Value Area, POC, and profile structure.

What I would like is the ability to define a separate tick size directly inside each Market Profile indicator.

For example:

  • Chart Tick Size = 3

  • Previous Day Profile Tick Size = 1

  • Previous Week Profile Tick Size = 2

Example 2 – Bitcoin (BTC)

I often use:

  • Daily Profile Tick Size = 50

  • Previous Week Profile Tick Size = 100

At the moment, changing the chart tick size affects both profiles. I would like each profile to have its own independent tick size setting.

Suggested Feature

Add an option inside the Market Profile indicator:

Profile Tick Size Mode

  • Use Chart Tick Size (current behavior)

  • Custom Tick Size

If "Custom Tick Size" is selected, the user can manually define the desired aggregation value for that specific profile.

Benefits

  • More flexibility for professional Market Profile users.

  • Better multi-timeframe profile analysis.

  • Ability to compare daily and weekly profiles using different aggregations.

  • Eliminates the need to constantly change chart settings when working with multiple profiles.

Thank you for considering this suggestion.🤝
