Zakura Volume Profile
Where the volume actually traded β POC, Value Area and the thin spots, in Zakura gold.
How it works
Every bar in range distributes its volume across the price rows it touched β three modes, from fast (close-only) to OHLC-weighted, which concentrates volume around each bar's typical price. Auto-zoom reads whatever your chart shows; fixed lookback pins the window.
The row that traded the most volume is the Point of Control β the fairest price of the window, drawn with a gold glow and optionally smoothed over a few bars so it does not flicker between neighbouring rows.
The rows around the POC holding 70% of the traded volume. Price inside it is at accepted value; price outside it is an auction looking for acceptance β the panel says which, live.
HVN rows (heavy volume) act as magnets and support; LVN rows (thin volume) are the air pockets price crosses fast. Both optional, both drawn from the same measured rows.
