Point and figure charts time based and footprint charts based on P&F

Hi,

I'm looking at the P&F charts and it seems it's not possible to create a 1 minute P&F chart with a 1 tick box size and 6 ticks reversal.
are P&F charts only available in tick based and not time based?

Also, how to create a footprint chart based on a P&F chart?

Regards,
Rufus

Hi Rufus,

Hi Rufus,
no one is able to mix time based chart and point and figure chart which are solely built on price action and based on a box size and reversal size definition. So a 1 min PnF chart just doesn t exist.
Regarding a footprint chart based on a PnF chart, this is fully possible
Just open a chart, change the periodicity to a Point and Figure settings and add a Volumescope indicator
You may start from that chart for example

Just import the chart definition above and change the periodicity to Point and Figure
