Three Display Modes
Legacy keeps Cloud Notes, Enhanced paints beside live price, and Both runs both presentations from the same calculation. Switching is immediate, with no market-data reload.
🏷
Live-Price Badge Lanes
Current VPOC, Naked VHVN, Developing VPOC, and Tested VHVN badges remain at their exact prices. When labels would collide, lower-priority badges move left with a visible gap.
🕒
Automatic ETH / RTH
Opt into ETH 18:00-09:30 ET and RTH 09:30-17:00 ET profiles. The completed RTH state freezes from 17:00-18:00 ET. Event timestamps are converted through America/New_York, independent of the computer's time zone.
⏭
Opening Ignore
Trades still build the opening profile while migrations, notes, badges, logs, and alerts remain quiet for 0-60 minutes. When the window ends, output begins from the accumulated profile.
↻
Fresh Session State
Clear on New Session clears volume counts, migrations, VHVNs, hit tracking, notes, and badges at the next data-time session boundary.
🔕
No Duplicate DVPOC Cue
If a VPOC migration naturally relocates the Developing VPOC on the same trade cycle, only the VPOC shift is announced. The DVPOC sound and voice are reserved for an independent developing-level move.
⚡
Tick-by-tick VPOC
VPOC recalculates on every incoming trade — no polling, no batching. Matches Bookmap's native Session Volume Profile in real time. Update interval configurable from 50 ms to 2000 ms.
🎯
Migration Direction Arrows
Each level shows ^ (up) or v (down) so you can read the migration trail at a glance — where fair value has been pulled to over the session.
⏱
Dwell Time Filter
VPOC must hold at a new level for X seconds before it's officially recognized. Eliminates flicker noise during volatile open ranges where two adjacent levels battle for volume. Default 30s, optional.
📐
DVPOC Min Distance
The Developing VPOC must be at least N points outside the current VPOC's area to qualify. Without this it would always be the adjacent tick — meaningless. Default 5 points (tuned for ES); fully configurable.
🔊
Voice + Sound Alerts
Three independent alert types — VPOC Shift, Naked Touch, DVPOC Changed — each with its own sound and voice toggle. Fires only when you want it, with cooldowns to prevent stacking.
🗣
Pronunciation Map
Customize how Windows TTS reads labels without changing what's on the chart. DVPOC=D V-Pock instead of "D-V-P-O-C." Voice selection across all installed Windows voices, speech rate -10 to +10.
🎚
Speech Queue
Voice alerts queue and play sequentially — never overlap, never garbled, even when multiple events fire at the open. Combined with cooldowns and Mute-at-Open, your audio stays usable.
🌅
Mute at Open
Suppress all alerts for the first X minutes after session start. Default 5 minutes — long enough for the open's volatility to settle, short enough to catch the early VPOC shifts that matter.
🎯
Naked Proximity Alert
Optional alert that fires when price comes within X ticks of a Naked VPOC level. Catch the magnet pull before it actually tags. Off by default; tune to your noise tolerance.
📅
Session Presets
Globex (18:00 ET), RTH reset (09:30 ET), Custom in quarter-hour increments, or the new Automatic ETH / RTH split. The existing preset meanings stay unchanged for saved customer settings.
🌐
Built-in HTTP Server
Levels stream directly to Bookmap Cloud Notes via local HTTP — no external scripts, no middleware, no third-party dependencies. Default 127.0.0.1:8001/vpoc_levels.csv.
🎨
Per-Level Appearance
Show/hide, label text, foreground color, background color, and horizontal price line — independently per level type. VPOC always renders last so it's never obscured. Show DVPOC % appends the developing node's volume vs VPOC.
📝
Session Log
Auto-dated migration history written for every session — timestamp, target level, direction, end-of-day summary stats. Default path: C:\BookMap Indicators\vpoc_session_log\. Built for end-of-day journaling.
📊
Max Levels Shown
Optional cap on total displayed levels. When enabled, the oldest Tested/Naked levels are hidden first so the chart stays readable during long, level-heavy sessions. Default 20.
📥
Historical Backfill for Live Use
On load, Bookmap's supplied historical trades rebuild the profile before live output begins. Version 2.1 does not promise guaranteed old-session replay-in-step publishing; some replays do not emit the realtime-start callback used to activate display output.
💾
Additive Settings Upgrade
Existing Legacy mode, labels, colors, ports, alerts, pronunciation, session choice, and log path remain readable. New Enhanced fields receive safe defaults without replacing established customer choices.
