volume profile shows you total number of points. There's 4 ticks in a point. ES. So if the market moved 40 points x4 =160 ticks

Hello dvcpro4,
Thanks for posting.
It would be possible to create a custom indicator that displays this- I recommend checking our User App Share for an existing one: https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/user-app-share/
If you have a programming background, our NinjaScript team may also provide you links to samples which would help you code such an indicator yourself, or you may contact platformsalesATninjatraderDOTcom for a list of third parties that would be interested in building this for you.
A less elegant solution would be to use the Ruler drawing tool on a tick-based chart to count the number of tick bars for one session. For example, in the screenshot below I've loaded a 1000 tick chart (with a daily data series also added for reference) and counted the number of bars that were created yesterday for the ES futures contract:
Since there were 1072 bars created and the chart's interval is 1000 ticks, we can conclude that there were roughly 1,072,000 ticks that day. Using a smaller or larger tick interval would allow you to calculate this with varying degrees of accuracy as needed.
Below is a link with more information about working with drawing tools:

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.Tyler M.NinjaTrader Customer Service
