Hello everyone, it’s Dale here, and today I’d like to talk about EUR/USD and a new support level there. But before I even get started with that, let me talk about the macro news calendar. So let me switch over to Forex Factory. Today is Thursday, and you can see that there is very strong macro news affecting the Euro. It is the main refinancing rate, monetary policy statement, and the ECB press conference. These are very strong macro news events that could affect EUR/USD.

If the level I am going to show you gets hit during the news or in the post-macro news volatility, I strongly recommend not trading that level because nobody knows what can happen during the macro news release. The markets could become unpredictable and very volatile, and it is likely that they won’t respect even the strongest trading levels.

So, let’s go to the chart. Provided that the level doesn’t get hit during the macro news, I am looking forward to trading it. The level is at 1.0905, and it is based on a combination of two trading setups. Let’s start with the Volume Profile setup. By the way, this is the Ninja Trader 8 platform, a 30-minute chart, and my custom-made Volume Profile and VWAP indicators.

If you use the Flexible Volume Profile over that trend area, it will show you the volume distribution there and reveal that there was a heavy volume zone formed within this rotation. This is the place I am interested in, especially the beginning of that heavy volume zone, which is here. As you can see, it is not only a heavy volume zone but also the start of a very steep and strong uptrend. Chances are that the buyers who were active here and later pushed the price upward are going to defend this place if the price hits this level in the future. So, if there’s a pullback, chances are that there will be a nice reaction from the buyers from here.

Apart from this Volume Profile setup, there’s also a price action setup that confirms this. If you look here, the price made a very nice reaction to this level in the past. It was a resistance level that turned into a support level when the price breached that resistance. This price action setup confirms our Volume Profile setup, which is based on those volumes. We have two independent setups, both telling us that this is a strong level to trade from. If there’s no macro news when the price makes the pullback, I’ll go long from there. I will also open up the Order Flow software when the price gets there and wait for some kind of confirmation to better time my trade entry and improve my trade exits.

Alright, so that’s the plan. Hopefully, it doesn’t get ruined by the macro news. Let’s wait and see. If you guys are interested in learning more about Volume Profile trading, head over to my website at trader-dale.com. If you click on “Trading Course and Tools” it will take you to this page.

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...
