EUR/GBP: Volume Profile, VWAP, and Price Action Analysis

 

Trader Dale - Free Book

Hello guys,

today, I will do an intraday trading analysis of the EUR/GBP.

There was a pretty interesting development yesterday. There was a rotation, and then a strong buying activity (uptrend).

This tells me that:

  1. There were strong Buyers building up their Long positions in the rotation area
  2. Then those Buyers pushed the price aggressively upwards (that’s the uptrend).

I used my Flexible Volume Profile to look into this area to see how the volumes were distributed there.

As you can see from the picture below, there were heavy volumes accumulated in the rotation area. Those are the strong Buyers who were building up their Longs there.

EUR/GBP; 30 Minute chart:

When the price makes it back into this heavy volume area again, then it should work as a strong Support.

The reason being is that the BIG institutions who were building up their Longs there will want to defend this zone. This zone is important for them because they placed a lot of their positions there.

This is why this zone (starting at 0.8592) should work as a strong Support.

This Volume Profile setup I used here is called the “Volume Accumulation Setup“.

VWAP Setup

What I also like about the zone around 0.8592 is that the 1st VWAP Deviation is very close. It is still developing (moving) but right now it all looks really good!

If it stays somewhere near this area, then there will be another nice confluence – a VWAP setup that I call the “VWAP Rotation Setup“.

This setup basically says that when the price moves in the area between the grey lines (1st Deviations), then it should bounce off them – they work as Supports/Resistances.

My Previous Prediction on EUR/GBP

BTW. the last week there was a very similar scenario as today – a Support on EUR/GBP based on the “Volume Accumulation Setup”

This is the original prediction & analysis I made the last week:

Beginners Guide to Order Flow PART 1: What Is Order Flow?

How To Trade The Point Of Control (POC)

DEFINITION: Point Of Control (= POC) is a price level at which the heaviest volumes were traded. The most important thing that the Volume Profile indicator shows is the POC. I dare say that if you used Volume Profile only for the purpose of identifying the POC, you would be a way better and trader then 99% of the retail traders. No matter what trading strategy you trade. Why do I say this? Why is POC so important? Point Of Control is so important because it shows the place where the most trading took place – where the biggest trading positions were accumulated. POC shows the BIG guys! Who accumulates those huge trading positions? The BIG guys – that’s the big financial institutions like hedge funds, pension funds, huge banks, etc… It is those BIG guys who move and manipulate the markets. It would be a huge advantage to know where they placed most of their positions, right? The good news is th...

NZD/CHF – How To Trade The “b-Shaped” Profile

Today’s intraday analysis will be on  NZD/CHF  and I will start by talking about the structure of the  Weekly Volume Profile . Weekly Volume Profile structure In the previous week, there was a  “b – shaped” Volume Profile histogram formed. b – shaped histogram means that the shape of the histogram  looks like the letter “b”. It says that the market sees the value at the bottom half of the profile while rejecting the upper half. If you look at the picture below, you can see that there was a  rotation  (Monday, Tuesday), then strong  buying activity  (Wednesday), and then an immediate  rejection and a sell-off  (Thursday). Then again a  rotation  on Friday. One of the most important things to notice in a b – shaped profile is a  volume cluster created in the rejection area. In this case, there were two of them. Such a  volume cluster  indicates a place where the  sellers were...
