A test of last Thursday's volume POC level on the lowest volume so far this week at this time of the day.....I also have several old price S&R levels in this area......

As posted elsewhere, I banked nice pips after a sell at the London Open pushed into this area before being rejected and bouncing back up into today's value area, which is - so far - holding with yesterday's range.....I'm now flat and waiting for the next set up

Yes the software package is Ensing Windows. I use both Price and Volume. I care more about the volume profile tho. The Lime green line is the Point Of Control based on time (price).



This is the 1 million dollar question my friend. I struggle with this one myself.

Basic Auction Market Theory would state to trade at the extremes. That means selling the unfair highs (retail) and buying the unfair lows (wholesale). The next level would be to buy unfair highs (initiative buying) and sell unfair lows (initiative selling). The ideal situation is...

Tks HG, for your time to answer my question. I wonder then now does it mean profile trend tend to suggest that it lags in a certain manner or we could make sure we play by a certain rules to only trade in the direction when both are confluence.

Just one more question, do you or anyone here for that matter, define a profile trend as when POC makes higher high or lower lows, let say 3 times in a role or something?

tks

I started with that definiton of trend and still look at it as well. It's a good way to determine trend but a bit lagging. In truth, all the AMT ways that I have seen are "lagging" in defining trend. This is pretty ironic since AMT gives us leading price points.

But again, it depends on how you use trend in your trading. Already today there was a good short opportunity at the open (see Islander's post) at least in part because of the trend. After that there was a long based on price trading at unfair lows and that trade made a complete rotation back to the value area (developing) high. Technically that would be a counter trend trade but it is consistant with what the day type seems to be today. At least so far.

I think in the CBOT Market Profile Study Guide they said a trend is when the "Value Area" makes higher/lower value areas.

Just got home from work, and see that I was stopped at break even and then filled lower at 1.3860 (blue line), stop to BE.

No time, I have to type a paper, do homework, eat lunch, and buy clothes all in the next 2 hours and 20 minuteds.

Edit: look to the vertical axis on the right to find blue line

Everything went smoothly, except the pants I bought were mislabeled and ended up being very very tight and uncomfortable (and short).

Our presentation was over our trading over the past 9 weeks. We were assigned to groups of three, and every week had so many transactions in different markets that we had to execute, from covered calls to shorting futures.

My group had a sharpe of 5.3 and we were leading the pack at 11% return every week until monday when one of my team mates decided to short 100 contracts of oil and 10000 shares of XOM.

When we had to make trades for the sake of fulfilling the req's I would use tiny position size and a close stop but my team mates didn't lol.

My only problem was the shit-talking my professor dished out in regards to my attention to price and volume.

Well I gotta finish my paper because my friends will be here shortly and I will be getting shit faced.

I will join you all tomorrow morning during NY, I'll be very hung over. Hopefully I'll have time to post a trading plan for tomorrow before my friends arrive.
