TPO Charting in EdgeProX
TPO Charts are a classic market profile chart. The profile within a TPO chart are not set by volume, but are set by time. A TPO chart is called a "Time Price Opportunity" and the default TPO charts that we have setup on EdgeProX are set to show 1 whole day at 30 minute intervals. In this article we will be going over the different settings that you can set within the EdgeProX TPO charts.
On the default layout of EdgeProX, you will see along the bottom of the application there are a list of tabs. Amongst this list of tabs you will see one titled "EdgeProX TPO"
Once the page is pulled up you will see your TPO charts. The default setting is currently set to only show 20 TPO charts. The can be changed by going to the cog wheel next to the TPO indicator. The adjusting the "Number of TPOs"
