Q/A – Swing Trading with Volume Profile Webinar

Q/A – Swing Trading with Volume Profile Webinar

A few days back we ran a webinar with NinjaTrader called Swing Trading With Volume Profile. The duration of the webinar was limited, so I didn’t have time for a Q/E section, but we did receive many really good questions posted in the chat, and later in my email. I decided to answer the most interesting ones here publicly, so you can also benefit and more importantly learn from them. Here we go!
Q: I’m wondering what more I will gain from your Forex Course that I haven’t learned from your book?
The main advantage of the course is that you see how I apply my trading methods on real markets in current trading conditions every day. The application is very important and this is how you can really accelerate your learning process.
Q: Do you trade reversing in the Swing trade or just intraday?
I do reversals only for intraday but it is not a bad idea to try them on swings too. However, before doing so, there must be some research on the levels and how reversals perform on swings.

Q: Are Flexible & Fixed Volume Profile one product or two?
Flexible Volume Profile and Fixed Volume Profile are two products but they are both part of Volume Profile Pack.
There is a free 5-day trial. Just download and install the pack, and it will run 5 days for free.
You can download installer and instructions here: Volume Profile Pack installer

Q: I would like to understand the differences between the two (Flexible and Fixed Volume Profile)..  and mostly will it improve my trading?
Best way to demonstrate the differences would be if you watched those two videos:
Every market is controlled and manipulated by big financial institutions. Volume Profile helps you to track actions of those institutions. I think it is absolutely essential to know what they are doing because they are the main force in the markets. In fact, I don’t really think anybody can be profitable without knowing what those institutions are up to.

Q: How do I access the free trial of the Volume Profile indicator? I have navigated to the Volume Profile page but haven’t seen the free trial.
Just download it and install it. That’s it. No need for any authorization or anything like it. It will work for 5 days from the moment you have installed it.
Also please read the instructions to learn how to use the profile and how to adjust your settings for the best performance.
Instructions are here: Volume Profile Pack – Quick guide

Q: I don’t know much about NinjaTrader. Can I use the NinjaTrader for free chart analysis lifetime or do I need to buy any subscription later?
NT is a free charting platform. No need to purchase it (or data). All is for free. Also you can use it for charting only and then you can trade with your current broker.
There is an article with info and links which you may find useful here:
Ninja Trader 8 – Tips, Links

Q: If I buy only Forex course and buy MT4 indicator will I be then able to apply your techniques properly in Forex?
Yes, you will. My advice would be to get the Webinar Special Sale because this way you get the NinjaTrader 8 Volume Profile pack, which is way more advanced than the MT4 Volume Profile indicator.
Q: I usually trade with Price Action, will this hamper my trading techniques?
Volume Profile is a great addition to Price Action. I show this in detail in my book:
VOLUME PROFILE: The Insider’s Guide To Trading

Q: How would I scan for applicable setups? You can theoretically review all of the major forex pairs daily, but that would not be possible for stocks.
I would pick only a few stocks so you aren’t too overwhelmed. Pick big company stocks you feel comfortable with. Or, you can trade stock indices. Those work really well with Volume Profile!

Q: Do you think Value area is not useful? Because it seems like you don’t use it and even your indicator doesn’t include the function.

I have never really found it useful. That’s why it is not a part of my indicator.

Q: Do you have to have NT’s Order Flow package for your VP indicator(s) to work?
No, you don’t need to buy NT package. Just get their NT platform (for free) and use my Volume Profile Pack with it.
In the end, I would really like to thank you for the kind and positive feedback and messages I received after the webinar. Thanks so much, guys, it means a lot to me!
Happy trading,
-Dale

Recent Trade Breakdown: Combining Price Action & Volume Profile for Smarter Trades

Video Transcript: Hello everyone, it’s Dale here. In this new video series, I want to break down my recent trades. The goal of this series is to show you how I use my Volume Profile trading setups every day in real market conditions, so you can learn from both my wins and my mistakes. If you find this helpful, don’t forget to hit the like and subscribe buttons. Let’s dive in. What you see before you is a screenshot from my session yesterday. It’s taken from the live trading room we held in the  Funded Trader Academy . During that session, a new setup was forming on the  AUD/USD . This is the  AUD/USD  on a 30-minute timeframe, and the new setup was forming right here. There was a resistance level forming around  0.6364 . The reason behind this setup was based on a couple of factors. The main reason was a Volume Profile setup. If you look here at what I’ve highlighted, this area represents a heavy volume zone, which the resistance level was based on. You can see ...

ORDER FLOW: How to Trade the Absorption Setup (Trade Entry Confirmation)

Video Transcript: Hello everyone, and in this video, I’d like to talk about order flow and one of my favorite confirmation setups in order flow. The confirmation setup is called the absorption, and I’ll show you an example of a trade I made a couple of days ago. I think this is the perfect example of how you can use the absorption setup to confirm your trade entry. So, let’s take a look at it. First, let me start by showing you the level I wanted to trade, and then I’ll show you the absorption setup. You’re looking at the  EUR/USD  30-minute chart, and I had a long level here, marked by this line. This was a long level based on a Volume Profile setup, focusing on those heavy volumes formed within this important rejection. So, this was the long level. What happened was that the price started to go into a sudden sell-off, and there wasn’t really any strong macro news behind this. I wasn’t really sure what was going on, but there was this sudden sell-off, this spike move. Because...
