Great video about VP trading strategy. I use VP for crypto. 37:22 : Regular problem for setting a stop loss is the "stop hunt low" , so you you get stopped out before the chart takes of to the upside. You can not be sure where the wick is going to be... Maybe you can do a video about that sometime. I am sure it's not a crypto thing but for Forex or futures market as well.

I always like to watch your videos, they are very informative... There is a delta setting in Tradingview volume profile... It would be great if you made a little video about it!

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

I have never used it, but might look into it. But I mostly do all my day trading in Sierra Chart. I don't think TV still has reliable delta indicators from what I've seen.

[@BlackRockGermany]

@@PriceActionVolumeTrader Your videos have helped me to improve my volume profile trading because I trade CFD for futures trading because I'm not that good yet, but I have a futures data feed for the ES at Tradingview to see where the POIs really are and then trade my CFD with very small sizes... the way you explained and explain is very good! I practice marking the weekly delta and then attempt a trading bias for the week

[@BlackRockGermany]

@@PriceActionVolumeTrader I always had too many indicators and drawings on the chart..so much that I couldn't see anything anymore..and then gradually optimized everything and kept what seemed relevant to me.. volume profile + smart money concept + volume analysis is my trading style now..most importantly I've stopped trying to trade every move..if I wasn't having so much fun I would have given up trading already..

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

It's always good to keep it as simple and clean as possible. You can apply volume profile to forex and CFDs and it's precise too. Like you can do ES futures or for example I sometimes use the SPX500 cfd for macro analysis with volume profile and it resembles the futures charts almost identical.

I'm new to this and was wondering if you saw the POC as something price usually passes through or more of a rejection area? Great content and thanks for sharing!

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

I used them mostly as targets where prices tend to be attracted to. They can reject but I don’t try to blindly fade them as price tends to get sticky around them.

[@WilliamCG0912]

@@PriceActionVolumeTrader ok, that makes since. thank you for the reply

[@kongwu7457]

Thank you, sir! As you mentioned that the LVNs can be used as support and resistance, but i find that the HVNs or VPOC also can be used as support and resistance. So, which zones are the best choices?

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

I prefer edges of HvNs best for entries with trend. The Pocs are great for targets but yes they can also fade especially when penetrating the next HVN area.

I dont think i heard you mention closing price at all? As this is a major pivot pointor did you reference it called something else.ie poc ?.

Thank you very much for the video and explanation. What is the name of the volume profile indicator that you put on the Trading View platform?

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

No problem. TradingView has 4 types. I have a video going over all of them, but most of the time I use the Fixed Range VP drawing tool from the left hand menu. And anchor it to a key inflexion point and have it extend to the right.

Hi ! Thanks for the insight, but I would like to ask if setting my VP to 9:30am to 9:30am EST. Does your setting have to do with the trading sessions around the world?

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

I use 2 separate session VPs for the futures markets only. One for ETH from 6pm to 9:30am the next day, and then RTH from 9:30am to 5pm. All using Eastern Standard Time (NY).

[@wkeddy6371]

Great content but what are your volume profile settings, I get confused marking out these zones... That would be really helpful

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

The setting are pretty basic really. I show them alot in the videos. 68% value area, I usually do like 250-300 rows as the amount of details for the nodes. The main thing is just hinging the start of the profile to a significant confluence swing point for the timeframe you are executing from.

[@syedaaisharahman7323]

Hello. Which volume profile indicator on trading view do you use? Thank you for sharing this strategy.

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

I mostly used the fixed range VP tool. But on my day trading I also use the sessions VP a lot.

[@safsafaf2838]

Thank you for the great video, if I want to trade for example btc, from what date should I use fixed range volume profile (+ to what date please?). Thanks in advance

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

I always look to hinge it to the last major rotation where price is overlapping. Because you need some kind of past reference to where price is now. So you can go see my weekend Bitcoin analysis video and see where my longer term profile is hinged from. I always have them extend all the way to the right at present to keep updated with the latests volume activity.

[@safsafaf2838]

@@PriceActionVolumeTrader thanks I appreciate your answer, I will check that video and I am also looking forward to the next video "Where should I start a rande volume profile"

[@stansuen8072]

Thanks. Nice video. Does it mean that for a high chance intraday trade, I have to wait until late afternoon for more information from the Regular Trading Session Volume Profile to develop? Is this a rule? (Not sure if I have missed this in this video or your other videos)

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

Correct. Well it depends. Usually if I am trading right at the regular session open (RTH) after 9:30am then I base myself in the lower time frames on the previous extended hours session VP and the previous day RTH profile. But as the day progresses and the current RTH profile develops more, then yeah I start using that mostly. That is why I also like trading the last 2 hours of the day 2-4pm EST cause now I have the whole session VP well filled in.

[@joshperla3673]

In your ES futures examples you’re trading the after hours to trade and previous day (NY trading hours) volume profile. If I’m trading NY hours, do you use Volume profile from overnight?

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

Yeah. Some people don;t place imprtance to overnight profiles as they are formed on much less trading volume, but I do like to always have a split session profile in futures for ETH and RTH. So yes, I always keep in mind important levels from the previous session like POC, Value Areas, HVNs, etc.

[@silvereyedlionking2036]

Will this be ideal for trading indices and forex? If I solely trade indices and forex for prop firm challenges which course would you recommend? Volume profile and orderflow? or just VP + price action is enough??? Thank you for your good contents and ideas!

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

I would say Price Action and VP as the orderflow course is geared more towards futures.

[@ulfxfpf3170]

I tried to replicate your studies and went into an issue at min 24:44 using TW I used AUDUS FXCM and the VP looked completely different not the nodes per se but the POC with FXCM is on the upper range on OANDA it is on the lower range... so you as a Futures Trader having better Datasets with SierraChart do you think OANDA matches these better?

I usually open 2 contracts and try to take profits in 1 at the first trouble area. Once that hits I’ll tighten the stop on the second contract to break even or in profit depending if there is a logical structure to put my stop behind.

I went over this in my new VP settings video. Forex VPs are calculated based on up/down vol instead of buy/sell vol and TradingView calculates it based on a price direction inside bars. It is still pretty precise and effective.

[@FreeMarketSwine]

How do you backtest a strategy like this? And when I say backtest, I mean in a way that removes all subjectivity, provides statistical significance, etc. It seems that the rules are a little malleable, which invites confirmation bias into the backtesting process.

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

For me it’s come from years of using Vp, studying, etc. And just watching price develop even on intraday session VP basis. If I am patient then these setups have given me the best win rate.

[@FreeMarketSwine]

@@PriceActionVolumeTrader Thanks for the reply. What would you say is a typical win-loss ratio and profit factor for this strategy? I tend to use mean reversion strategies where stop losses often hurt far more than they help in the long run, but the downside is that drawdowns can be painful at times. I guess this is technically kind of a mean reversion strategy, but it's very nonlinear in theory compared to standard mean reversion strategies (i.e., price reaching certain levels can be a clear signal that the theory has not held whereas indicator based strategies would say to keep holding) and therefore stop losses can be set more rationally.

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

I'd have to browse through to come up with exact figures as I use this is a lot of different timeframes, markets, etc. But yeah, in a way it is a trend following strategy because you are looking for a "pullback" for a long setup at the edges of HVNs, and vice versa. Of course I use other factors and patterns, etc too.
