Hey traders. I've just launched a new bundle for all 3 of my trading courses. Get them all together for a 25% discount in the course page on the description ☝

[@lastking1731]

Name of this indicator please?

[@DavidElstob73]

Nice video as always. What you're explaining is similar to the neckline on a pattern. And what no text book will explain is why this is important. Well it's important because - according to the NYSE website - market makers prop up trading ranges (to prevent price collapsing and conditions becoming untradeable). So like you said, we need to see a clear break of the neckline (support or resistance) so we know market makers have flipped direction.

[@justincuvelier9569]

Honestly the best 15 minutes of my life. You didn't draw anything out, sell anything, degrade anyone, and very effective. Thank you. One last thing, the explosive take off is able to be offset if risk management and average down method is used. I've done this numerous times and red trades end green trades.

[@bryfryable]

Wow. I have this same problem trying to anticipate a breakout when price pierces through a node. It seems like using VP node gaps for S/R levels is the way to go. Thanks for the explanation and reasoning!

[@No1TasLis]

Best tutorial on vol profile I've come across. Another great confluence before entering a trade. Thank you for making this video.

[@nekoinekoi2015]

Great video. Thank you!

[@justtrade9903]

Great video, Thanks. I keep making this same mistake. The key is wait for the break and re-test, then go in. I have to keep reminding myself this all the time, and yet, i still make the mistake. Patience pays.

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

Yes. We all still do this sometimes. Key to wait.

"The number one mistake" Yep did that today on SP100, then I found this video at lunch. Well done Sir. Lesson learned.

[@BullBearsCo]

Thanks for another great free video

[@HarvysHotDeals]

thanks great info nicely explained

[@flippatheshippa]

Thanks so much I seriously have been using the volume profile so wrong the whole time! This really helps a ton. Sometimes you got to be a bit contrarian I found while using the volume profile I liked the explanation about how big players can use those aggressive sellers to load up on longs although it looks like it should sell off it does the opposite because big money took advantage. Even me I would have probably taken that short easily but now I see why I haven’t been winning on my trades. Very helpful thank you 🙏

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

Great to hear. Yes, most of the time it is better to go against the retail majority. Of course High volume Node edges do break especially on new driven events. But in general the risk:reward in those edges are the best.

[@flippatheshippa]

[@bobysize]

I learned so much from you. Can you please make a video how to set up a bid and ask volume profile and regular volume profile that looks like your? like the thumbnails. Thank you very much.

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

That is a delta volume profile. In the settings under "display volume in bars" instead of selecting "total volume" you select "ask volume - bid volume" and you get the delta profile.

[@epixtx0183]

Great Video, I'm new to your channel and you might have answer this already, but when scalping or day trading, do you purely use the time frame your are trading against or do you incorporate time frames around it ie: trading 5m, but you use 15min and 1 min for confirmations and entry/exit. Thanks

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

Yes I use multiple timeframe analysis. Usually VP levels from the hourly and then executing on 5m or tick charts for entries.

[@favthenewkid]

Great explanation! Is it possible to obtain your chartbook? I think you arranged it very beautifully and compact for just one screen

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

I share a free footprint and a market profile chartbook on my website. As for a complete chartbook including those plus my daily and session charts, custom indicators, etc I share that in my Orderflow Day Trading course.

[@jmitch6896]

thanks

[@jeffegg2]

Great!!!

[@lalodominguez7121]

So say for example price breaks above the low volume node that was once resistance, resulting in price discovery. That low volume node then becomes support correct?

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

You would expect support yes. It’s not guaranteed to hold, especially in price discovery as there is not a lot C of built up volumes there but yeah.

[@RyanYoungpeters]

Hello sir may I ask how you customized your chart to get a delta volume profile the way yours is showing

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

I have a whole video about it here in my Sierra Guides playlist: Sierra Chart Guide - How To Make a Delta Volume Profile kzbin.info/www/bejne/iovaXmSLZpl3sJY

[@KASUN_M]

Do you have any suggestions for how many vol at price bars to use for a few time frames?

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

It varies by instruments. I use tick charts, not volume. But overall for ES (sp500) during regular market hours I like the 3000t chart. So 3000 vol would be somewhat similar. But this is a personal preference. All you are doing is splitting the same data in different ways (minutes, # of trades, volume of trades, ranges, etc). So you just need to set yourself in a way that you gets you the best signals for your market.

[@championchuck777]

From what I see, the Volume Profile still trumps over Order flow like the Delta Profile etc. Could be wrong though, but It was greatly contradicting the LVN level in extended hours session.

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

Yes, for me VP is king. Orderflow just helps me see some confirmation signs of absorption and high volumes kicking in certain areas.

[@terrancemcclendon456]

Support and resistance with this strategy

[@maxkelter3561]

Will incorporate VP indicator in trading as I see its value. Still working on method.

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

It is my favorite tool.

[@goodlife7018]

Great content. Since the forex market is decentralized, it is difficult to get the entire volume and hence the volume profile methods becomes useless. Are you using the futures forex volume data instead? Thank you very much.

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

No, I use the spot forex VPs. They are calculated with tick movement data based on price movement instead of traded volume and it is definitely useful and accurate.

[@goodlife7018]

@@PriceActionVolumeTrader Thanks. Do you need a broker to get that data feed? or a regular trading view chart would do it?

[@ahmadbachir1317]

thank you

Welcome Admad

[@guatro]

realmente é uma colocação inteligente, hoje mesmo acabei vendendo o fundo de uma grande área e acabei tomando um calor do mercado

[@armankhan2182]

Sir like I am applying this on weekly and daily so should I take trade on weekly and daily chart ? Or can I take trade in 4 hour time frame with weekly . Daily support/resistance?

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

I always combine several time frames. Generally daily, hourly and then s low 5min or tick chart to execute day trades

[@pitekxpan5845]

Sir! What is the winning rate use VP??

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

There is no answer to that. It is all completely based on the individual trader. Their patience, discipline, understanding of context, etc.

[@mcol59251]

Cannot get anymore honest then this. Awesome

[@turlur]

[@jackcoletti]

Anyone know how to get a flexible volume profile on TradingView?

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

What do you mean by flexible?

[@jackcoletti]

@@PriceActionVolumeTrader like you can drag the area you want to see price action in

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

That's the fixed range VP. There is a drawing tool for it in TradingView on the left side menu under the 6th icon. You do need a paid Pro account to use VP tools though.

[@sherkhan-ks2qj]

The indicators you are using is free ?!

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

No. Both TradingView and Sierra Chart require s membership to use the volume profile tools.

[@sherkhan-ks2qj]

@@PriceActionVolumeTrader yes but tradingview doesn't have the order flow and delta indicators, it has only volume profile.

[@PriceActionVolumeTrader]

So you need Sierra Charts or another platform that does

Amazing advice I wished that i saw this video before blown up my account because of this mistake.

Yep. We’ve all been through it.
