Source Code
The code stays on GitHub. The author has not published this script under an open licence, so ForexR does not show its code. Copy script reads the file straight from GitHub into your clipboard, so you can still try it on your own chart. Ask the author before reusing the code anywhere else.
Overview
Volume Profile [LuxAlgo] plots histogram bars showing volume intensity at each price level, with options to display the rolling point of control, adjust bar widths, flip the histogram base, enable gradient coloring, or apply solid colors. Key settings control row size, width percentage of the box, and specific colors for rows and POC. This helps identify potential support and resistance zones based on volume. The indicator draws directly on the price chart with no separate pane. It uses Pine Script v4 and provides no buy or sell signals since it functions as a visualization tool rather than a trading strategy.

Third-party code. ForexR did not write, test or endorse this script, and the summary above was generated automatically from its code and README. Indicators describe the past, and a strategy's backtest can look better than live trading, especially when a script repaints. Check it in the Strategy Tester and on a demo account before you rely on it.
