NZD/CAD: Volume Profile Analysis


Trader Dale - Free Book

Hello guys,

today I would like to share with you my day trading analysis of NZD/CAD.

This pair caught my attention at the first sight because there was one of my favorite formations very nicely visible there.

The formation is a price channel/rotation followed by an aggressive and sharp trend. In this case, it is an uptrend.

Volume Profile Analysis

If you check the volume distribution in this rotation with Volume Profile, then you will see, that there were massive volumes traded there.

The heaviest volumes were at 0.9168. This is actually the Weekly Point OF Control (POC), which means that the heaviest volumes of this week (so far) have been traded there.

Since there is an uptrend commencing from the POC, we can surmise that in that heavy volume area, strong Buyers were building up their Long positions.

When the Buyers had entered their Longs there, they pushed the price aggressively upwards.

When the price makes it back into the heavy volume zone around 0.9168, those Buyers are likely to defend this zone. It is an important zone for them because they placed a lot of their Long orders there!

They will defend it with aggressive buying (using Market Orders) and this should drive the price upwards again.

And this is the reason I believe that this POC will work as a Support when the price hits it at some point in the future.

I call this setup the “Volume Accumulation Setup” and you can see it in the picture below.

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...
