We do not have access to the Interactive Brokers data ourselves, so the chartbook will not do us any good.

We need to see an image of what you are seeing and an explanation of the issue related to what is in the image.

Given what you state, however, we wonder if you are looking at a Volume by Price Profile for a Daily Historical Chart. Refer to the following if this is the case:
Volume By Price Study: How Volume by Price is Calculated for Historical Daily and Higher Timeframe Charts

You can see that the volume for the current day is incorrect and also not showing.

What is the symbol of the chart? We have no idea.

These specific instructions must be followed. :

Otherwise, we cannot help with this and a screenshot is just not helpful at all to us

The issues is that:
1. the current daily volume candle doesnt show in chart area 2
2. The daily volume for the current bar is incorrect. it is much lower than what it is supposed to be.

On the chart, after the symbol WULF, do you see [M]?

thanks, i turned it on and it fixed the issue.

I am wondering if there is an option to hide the trade/only symbol from the title? And also maybe the company name as well?

From

WULF[M]/WULF-STK-SMART-USD [CBV-D] Daily #16 L:27 | Terawulf INC

to

WULF[M] [CBV-D] Daily #16 L:27 | Terawulf INC

or to

no worries.

Can you please let me know how to enable continuous contracts on Futures using IBKR?

I have the option enabled but NQ only loads the 202509 contract

Symbol: NQ-202509-CME
Automatically rollover futures symbol = Yes
Continuous Contract - Volume based rollover back adjusted.

You definitively cannot do continuous futures contracts, with Interactive Brokers unless you are using the Denali Exchange Data Feed and you are not for CME futures. You need to pay the real-time exchange fee for this:
