What is more accurate for volume profile? Volume imprint or the volume profile?

They should be exactly the same as long as the settings are configured the same...

You have "Use Historical Minute Bars" selected on the volume profile which is more of a estimate. You do not have it selected on the volume imprint screen so it is using actual tick data.

So in this case your Volume Imprint is more accurate.
