DAX-Parameters for Market Profile Calculator

I trade the DAX-Future and serching desperately the web to find Value Areas for the DAX, but unfortunately without success.
I use NinjaTrader and found there an indicator to calcilate Value Areas but it isn`t accurate when I compare it with the Values here for the YM. There is an HUGE difference!
Therefore I like to use the Market Profile Calculator, but have no idea which DAX-Data I have to put in the section:
Enter Raw High/Low data here

Please can somebody explain exactly which data I have to use to become proper results? I HOPE anyone can help me!

Abde

I did some research and found that the DAX future trades from 8:50 a.m. until 8:00 p.m. CET (Central European Time). I believe that puts Frankfurt 6 hours ahead of New York so that would be from 2:50am to 2pm EST. (The reason that I had to convert the times is because my charts and computers run on US Eastern Time.)

The data that I found for the DAX from yesterday 1/14/2010 was a bit more extensive. I've copied the time, high, low, and volume and pasted it here:

2:00	6016.5	6005.5	1,818

2:30	6012.5	6005.5	957

3:00	6011.0	5997.0	7,360

3:30	6008.0	5992.0	5,659

4:00	6009.5	5993.5	4,355

4:30	6008.0	5997.5	3,117

5:00	6003.0	5994.5	2,597

5:30	6006.5	5999.0	2,672

6:00	6003.5	5980.0	6,557

6:30	5995.5	5984.0	2,361

7:00	6003.5	5993.0	3,529

7:30	6002.0	5987.5	3,247

8:00	6009.5	5999.0	6,967

8:30	6002.0	5955.0	15,869

9:00	5977.5	5956.0	6,781

9:30	5995.0	5974.0	10,646

10:00	6012.5	5986.5	11,036

10:30	6007.5	5987.0	7,839

11:00	5995.5	5980.0	9,591

11:30	5999.5	5990.0	4,626

12:00	6003.5	5993.0	2,014

12:30	6004.5	5996.0	1,082

13:00	6000.0	5996.0	452

13:30	6004.5	5998.5	1,027

14:00	6004.0	5998.5	496

14:30	6005.0	6000.0	534

15:00	6006.5	6001.0	1,114

15:30	6010.5	6000.5	1,365

16:00	6013.0	6008.5	105

So to generate the profile I took the highs and lows from that data above:

6016.5	6005.5

6012.5	6005.5

6011.0	5997.0

6008.0	5992.0

6009.5	5993.5

6008.0	5997.5

6003.0	5994.5

6006.5	5999.0

6003.5	5980.0

5995.5	5984.0

6003.5	5993.0

6002.0	5987.5

6009.5	5999.0

6002.0	5955.0

5977.5	5956.0

5995.0	5974.0

6012.5	5986.5

6007.5	5987.0

5995.5	5980.0

5999.5	5990.0

6003.5	5993.0

6004.5	5996.0

6000.0	5996.0

6004.5	5998.5

6004.0	5998.5

6005.0	6000.0

6006.5	6001.0

6010.5	6000.5

6013.0	6008.5

and copy/pasted them into the Market Profile Calculator. I changed the tick size to 0.5 and the decimal places to 1. (You don't need to change the starting letter unless you want to. I find it easier to always leave the starting letter at D because I'm used to the first bracket being D so it's easier for me to read the profile that way.) Then I clicked the generate button. This produced the following profile:

6016.5 D                   

6016.0 D                   

6015.5 D                   

6015.0 D

I got it from my charting platform: eSignal

Ok. I tried my very best, but unfortunatly ig-markts doesn´t serve the volume. In so far i cannot calculate VAH, VAL and POC.

Cant´t you bee so kind and calculate it for DAX as you do for ES and DJ?
