Trader Dale - Volume Profile Trading Blog

Video Transcript Hey guys, I’ll show you how to trade ES using Volume Profile and Order Flow. And I’ll demonstrate this using a trade that I took on the ES yesterday. I’ll show you exactly how the trade went from A to Z, what I was doing, what I was watching, and how I used Volume Profile and Order Flow together. Okay? Let’s get to it. What you see before you is the ES chart. It is a 30-minute chart, and this is where I always start with the bigger picture, okay? So, the 30-minute chart, and the bigger picture is Volume Profile because Volume Profile shows how volumes were distributed throughout the whole day. So, first, I need to identify strong support and resistance zones using Volume Profile, and then I’ll be using Order Flow to trade around them. So, in this case, I was looking at this strong sell-off that took place on Friday. This is a heavy volume zone that formed at the close of the day.

This is David from Trader Dale, and I’m going to show you a trade that we took on Monday, October 19th. That’s one of my favorite trade setups. It’s basically what you may know as Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution (AMD). ICT may call it the Power of Three, or whatever they call it. We’re looking for a specific pattern. First of all, these are the pre-market levels from Monday. The market opens somewhere near here. What I do in the morning is mark all my pre-market levels. Here, I have the London high, which is already marked by a tool. On this day, I also had relative equal highs up here, which I think are great draws on liquidity. So, I had two really good b...

Video Transcript Now, one of the biggest mistakes I made when I started trading was this. I was trading, but I wasn’t recording anything. I only looked at the final result, profit or loss. But if you don’t know why you won or why you lost, you cannot improve. You cannot fine-tune your strategy. You’re just guessing, right? When I was testing new strategies in the past, I did it all wrong. I only watched the equity curve, and if it went up, then, yeah, it was great. If it went down, I threw the strategy away. But this is what I realized later. Many strategies fail not because they are bad, but because we don’t understand their strengths and weaknesses. Maybe the strategy works great on EUR/USD , but not on indices. Maybe it does well on Wednesdays and Thursdays for some reason, but performs terribly on Mondays.

Video Transcript: Hey everyone, it’s Dale here, and in this video, I’ll show you the strongest Volume Profile levels to trade this week. Let’s start with EUR/USD . What you see here is a 30-minute chart of EUR/USD. The platform is TradingView, and what I want to focus on is this strong rejection of lower prices that happened last Wednesday because of the CPI news. During the CPI news, the market moved aggressively downwards. I mean, EUR/USD dropped aggressively. But what happened next was quite surprising because the price suddenly turned and moved upwards. What happened in between was that heavy volumes were traded there. Let me show you. Those heavy volumes were traded right here. See, this was the sell-off ca...
