EUR/AUD: Volume Profile and Price Action Analysis

 

Hello guys,

today, I would like to have a closer look at EUR/AUD.

There has been an interesting development as the trend completely changed from downtrend to uptrend. Also, the change of trends was quite rapid. There was a strong sell-off, and then just after a few hours of rotation a strong buying activity took place.

When there is such an aggressive change of a trend, then I am always interested in the volume distribution within the strong rejection area. I am most interested in the volumes that got traded right before the change of trend occurred. For this, I use my custom-made Volume Profile tool.

One of the handy features my Volume Profile has is that you can use it to look into specific areas in the chart which you are interested in. Just like the rejection here.

EUR/AUD; 30 Minute chart:

As you can see in the picture above, I used the Volume Profile to look into the rejection – into the area where the trend changed. That’s the most important zone.

The Volume Profile revealed a significant volume zone – a volume cluster that got formed just before the trend changed.

Significant Volume Cluster

What does this volume cluster tell us? It tells us, that at this place heavy volumes were traded. Buyers were buying everything the Sellers had to sell. They were buying aggressively and when the Sellers ran out of fuel, the price shot upwards. Strong institutional Buyers pushed it there – it’s those guys that changed the trend.

When the price makes it back into this rejection zone again at some point in the future then we can expect those strong institutional Buyers to defend this zone again.

This zone is clearly important for them since they were buying there as crazy before.

So, when the price makes it back to the volume cluster zone starting at 1.6021, those Buyers should start aggressive buying activity (using Market Orders) and push the price upwards again.

This should make the zone around the volume cluster a strong day trading Support.

The Volume Profile setup I used here is called the “Rejection Setup” and you can learn more about how to trade it in my Volume Profile Trading Course.

I hope you guys liked my analysis! Let me know what you think in the comments below!

Happy trading,

Bitcoin is Dropping Hard! Here’s Where Smart Money Will Buy Again

Video Transcript: Hello everyone, it’s Dale here. In today’s video, I’d like to talk about Bitcoin. The reason is that Bitcoin has been dropping like crazy, and a lot of traders are wondering where Bitcoin will go and what to expect. If I look at the chart and use Volume Profile, I would say that it’s pretty straightforward because Volume Profile very clearly shows the strongest support and resistance levels. So, let’s take a look at the chart, and let me show you. What you see before you is the daily chart of Bitcoin. This is the big picture, and as you can see, from the all-time high here, Bitcoin experienced quite a significant sell-off and is currently dropping. Right now, I don’t really see any strong support that would stand in the way of this strong sell-off. Let me use Volume Profile and show you what could actually stop the sell-off of Bitcoin. All right, so what I’m going to do is apply Volume Profile over this whole area to see the volume distribution. As you can see, there ...

Quick In & Out Trade on USD/JPY – Smart Money Concepts & Volume Profile

Video Transcript: Hello everyone, it’s Dale here. Welcome to the next video of the new series, where I’ll talk about my recent trades. Today’s trade is on the  USD/JPY . It was a very quick in-and-out trade, so let’s check it out. What you see before you is the 30-minute chart of the  USD/JPY , and the level I was trading from was this short level at  149.63 . The reasoning behind this level—let me zoom in a little so you can see this better—was the volumes that formed here. From this place, there was a sharp sell-off. Even though the volumes do not particularly stand out, what’s important is that from this zone, there was a strong sell-off. There was also a  Fair Value Gap . My software highlights that, but when the gap is filled, it’s not highlighted anymore. If I mark it for you, this was the Fair Value Gap, which is a setup from Smart Money Concepts. I like to trade from the beginning of the Fair Value Gap, which is here. This is also the beginning of a heavy vol...

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...
