# Volume Footprint
Buy and sell volume traded at each price inside every bar, from the live trade stream, to see where aggressive buyers and sellers were active.

## How to read it

- Each row shows sell × buy volume at that price inside the bar.
- Rows where one side clearly outweighs the other are imbalances, often near turning points or continuation.
- Heavy volume at the bar's extreme with no follow-through can signal absorption.

## Good to know

- Display mode (Split, Delta, Total, Cluster, Imbalance Only, Ladder), rows and imbalances are set in Footprint settings.
- Also available as a chart type. A heavy indicator that uses more memory.
