One of the real game changers for my trading occurred when I discovered volume-by-price (aka "Volume Profile"). It represents how volume is distributed at each price level of the chart interval you're viewing. Basically a volume distribution curve and it acts as an important road map to discovering whether something is current trading at value or too far away from value. That is different than a volume histogram which only details volume by time.

IMO charts are missing vital information about order flow without it. There are other retail charting services which offer it for viewing purposes (i.e. TC200, Stockcharts, etc), but I can't seem to find a service that allows one to actually screen for stocks based on volume profile parameters.
It would be a real game changer if you ask me. I'd be willing to pay a little more just to have it's availability. I hope one day you guys really consider offering it.
