A market profile chart, using d3 and d3fc, as described in this blog post.

good stuff but should have an option to show letters. don't u think so ?

hey

can u create an order flow analysis chart and tape reading panel ? and market profile for any zoomed or focused bar? actually it is quite interesting with d3js .

thanks
