Hello
everyone, it’s Dale here with a new Weekly Trading Ideas video. Today we’re
going to cover three major forex pairs. We’ll look at EUR/USD, GBP/USD,
and also USD/CAD. But before that, just a very quick note about a sale
I’m currently running on my best educational and indicator packs. Let me
briefly show you, and then we’ll jump into the trading ideas right away.
All
right, so if you go to my website, Trader-Dale.com,
and click the “Trading
Course and Tools” button, it will take you straight to this page. For the
next 5 days, you can get a discount on my best educational and indicator packs.
That includes discounts on the Volume Profile Pack, the Order Flow Pack, the
VWAP Pack, and the Smart Money Pack. You can get those educational and
indicator packs separately here, or get an even better discount if you scroll
down a bit. You’ll see a bundle offer that includes all four packs together at
a massively discounted price—only $697 for all four.
I
should also mention that I offer a special guarantee: if you don’t like the
products, just ask for a refund. If you request it within 14 days, we’ll send
your money back—no questions asked. And as a bonus, you can keep all the items
you purchased, even if you get a refund. You can learn more about the refund
policy here.
But
now, let’s go check out the trading ideas.
Let’s
first cover the euro. On your screen here is the NinjaTrader 8 platform, and
this is a 30-minute chart of EUR/USD. The level I want to talk about is
a newly formed support, which appeared earlier today at 1.1380. This
support is based on a couple of things.
The
first thing is a Volume Profile setup. As you can see, the price was recently
moving in a strong uptrend, and within that uptrend, there’s a volume cluster.
It’s not the most significant volume cluster, but it’s important because
there’s a confluence of a couple of trading signals. The first signal is that
volume cluster within the strong uptrend. My level is at the beginning of that
heavy volume cluster.
In
addition to that, there’s also a fair
value gap—from Smart Money Concepts—highlighted in green. I like to trade
from the beginnings of fair value gaps, meaning from this point. So those are
two setups.
There’s
also a third one, and I’ll need to zoom out a bit to show you. If you look at
this level, in the past it worked as a very strong resistance. The price
reacted there multiple times, which means it was a strong resistance. Then,
when the price moved above it, it turned into support—so that’s a price action
setup: resistance turning into support.
All
those setups align and are currently pointing to this level. So right now, I
think it’s a solid support zone. I’m waiting for a pullback, and when the price
reaches this support, I think there’s a solid chance the price will go up from
there.
All
right, that’s for the euro. Let’s now check out the British pound.
This
is a 30-minute chart of GBP/USD. The level I want to talk about is a
support at 1.3500. It’s based on the same Volume Profile setup as the
previous trade. Let me show you: we have an uptrend from Friday through today.
If I apply the Volume Profile over the entire uptrend zone, it shows the most
important heavy volume area within that trend is here.
The
support level I marked is at the beginning of that heavy volume zone. In my
experience, that’s where the biggest chance of a price reaction is. So right
now, I’m waiting for a pullback. If it occurs, there’s a solid chance that the
buyers—who pushed the price up from this zone—will step in again to defend
their long positions.
All
right, that’s the support on GBP/USD. Let’s now check out USD/CAD.
On USD/CAD,
we’ll also be talking about the Volume Profile setup I showed you earlier. It’s
called the “Trend Setup” because you use it when there is a trend. This chart
is a 30-minute chart of USD/CAD—the same time frame as all the other
charts I’ve shown you. It’s my favorite time frame for intraday analysis.
What
I’m going to do is apply the Volume Profile over the recent downtrend area. You
want to trade from the most important heavy volume zones, and those are here:
this one, this one, and then this one.
The
first level is a resistance at 1.3727. The second resistance is at 1.3754,
at the beginning of the second volume cluster. The third resistance is at 1.3815,
which is at the beginning of a small fair value gap, highlighted in red. As you
can see, it’s also just before a massive heavy volume zone.
So
those are the significant resistances on USD/CAD. The ideal scenario
would be: pullback to the first resistance—reaction, then pullback to the
second—reaction, and then to the third—reaction. All three levels are solid
resistances, and I’m planning to trade all three.
By
the way, one thing I haven’t mentioned yet is the confluence with other setups.
Let me show you:
At
the first level—1.3727—I don’t have any other confluence, just the heavy
volume zone. But it stands out enough to be strong on its own.
At
the second level—1.3754—it’s also based on heavy volume, and there’s a
large fair value gap there, which shows aggressive sellers were active, pushing
the price down. That makes this a strong level.
At
the third level—1.3815—there’s also a fair value gap, but what makes it
even stronger is the price’s past reaction. There was a very strong reaction
there, meaning it was support in the past, and now, after the price broke below
it, it has turned into resistance. That’s the same price action combo I showed
you on EUR/USD.
So
those are the reasons I like those levels. As I mentioned, we just need to wait
for pullbacks. Hopefully, we’ll get them, and we can trade those resistances.
Now,
before I wrap up the video, I’d like to announce the winner of the contest we
held last time. The prize was my custom-made Volume Profile and VWAP indicators
for the TradingView platform. Right now, you see the name of the contest winner
on your screen. Congratulations!
Next,
I’ll be running another contest for next week. To participate, all you need to
do is leave a comment below the video I’ll post on YouTube. Next week, I’ll
randomly pick one person to win this same set of custom-made indicators.
That’s all for now. Thanks for watching the video, and I’ll be looking forward to seeing you next time. Until then—happy trading!

A little knowledge can be a dangerous thing …. I thought that if I followed the lesson to buy GBP/USD when the price returned to the level where it was expected to be defended and bought by the buyers , I could place a buy order and make some money.
Buy order in place I could wait for the pending order to be opened, which it was overnight when I could not watch it . Price did not reverse and kept falling. Trade is still open, and I am now waiting for price to rise to my profit target.
I now realise how much more I need to learn from Volume Profile , so its back to the book.!
