Hello everyone, it’s Dale here with a
new video. Today I’m going to show you the best volume profile levels to trade
this week. And this time we are going to talk about swing trades. What that
means is that we are going to talk about daily charts. So what you see before
you is a daily chart of the USD/JPY. I do all my swing trading analysis
on daily charts because this is a slow-paced game and those trades take longer
to develop, and that’s why Iβm trading on the daily charts. So today it’s going
to be daily charts only, and this chart is the USD/JPY. In here, I want
to show you a strong support which is right here at 154.77
Let me show you how this area looks
with volume profile. You can see that heavy volume bump. The level is based on
it; it is essentially based on those volumes formed before this aggressive
buying activity on the Japanese yen. This is basically telling us that there
were buyers adding to their long positions here. We can see that on the volume
profile here that’s the volume bump and then those buyers pushed the price
aggressively upwards. And that aggressive movement is an important point
because itβs telling us about the strength of the buyers, right?
So right now I’m waiting for a
pullback and I’m going to trade from here. This is roughly the beginning of
that heavy volume cluster. When the price hits this level, I currently have a
limit order here and I’m going to go long from there. Now, this is the volume
profile setup, but thereβs also an additional setup that confirms this level. I
need to zoom out a little bit to show you. As you can see, the price was
reacting in here in the past exactly to this level. That means that in the
past, this worked as a resistance, and the price turned it into a support when
it blew past that resistance. So thereβs a price action setup confirming this
volume profile setup.
As I was saying, I’m currently
waiting for this pullback, and if it occurs, then I’m going to go long from
there. By the way, Iβm currently in a short trade on the Japanese yen from this
heavy volume zone. Let me show you with the volume profile like this. I’m short
from here. What I’m planning to do is quit my short trade somewhere in here and
then enter a long from this place.
All right, so that’s for the Japanese
yen. Letβs now move forward and take a look at NZD/CAD. This is a daily
chart of the NZD/CAD, and I’m currently in a short trade, but you can
still join me because the price is around the place where I entered that short.
I entered the short here at 0.8017
Let me show you the reason why I did
that. If I use the volume profile like this over this area, you can see that
there was a very significant heavy volume zone here. This is a place where
sellers were likely active, building up their short positions. And from this
heavy volume zone, you can see that the sell-off continued this aggressive selling activity. So I was
waiting for that pullback, and when the price reached that level, I went short,
and I’m currently in this short. As you can see, the price is just a couple of
pips above that level, so you can join me and enter that short as well. There’s
still plenty of time, I think.
Stop for this trade is here at 0.8090.
The take-profit, at least right now, is at 0.7944. I’m likely to adjust the
take-profit, probably to the heavy volume zone which we see here, so I’m
probably going to move it a bit lower to this place. This is the beginning of a
heavy volume zone and also the beginning of a fair value gap. So that’s where
I’m going to move the take-profit, because chances are that there could be a
reaction to this level, and I don’t want to risk that. So that’s why I’m going
to quit the trade in here.
Thatβs for the NZD/CAD. Oh,
one more thing I forgot to mention: there’s also that price action setup I
mentioned with the previous trading example. Right here, there was a reaction,
which means it was a support in the past, and it turned into a resistance here.
So again, we have a price action confirmation of a level based on this heavy
volume cluster.
All right, so that’s for the NZD/CAD.
And the next one is AUD/NZD. In here, you see a daily chart of the AUD/NZD,
and thereβs a new short level that formed recently at 1.1496, right here.
Up until now the AUD/NZD was
in a strong uptrend, but now it seems like that uptrend might be over. There
was this low in here, and then there was this huge candle forming a fair value
gap. Here’s the fair value gap. And that candle closed below this rejection it closed in here. So that might be a signal
that the trend is reversing, and we might be able to take some nice shorts
here.
The short I’m planning to take is
from here. Let me show you with the volume profile. There is a significant
volume cluster here in this place, and the level is the beginning of that heavy
volume zone. So I’m waiting for the pullback, and when the price reaches the
beginning of that heavy volume zone, I’m going to go short. It is not just the
beginning of that heavy volume zone; it is also the beginning of a fair value
gap. Let me show you. I like to trade from the beginnings of fair value gaps.
In this case, this is the beginning of a fair value gap, and this is the whole
fair value gap, and this is the beginning of it.
So that’s how I plan to trade this.
Right now we just need to wait for a pullback. If it occurs and it doesnβt really matter when but if it occurs, then it is a short from
there. Stop for this trade is here at 1.1573. Take-profit, at least right now,
is at 1.1419. Thatβs risk-reward ratio one take-profit, but I might adjust it
and move it a little lower so I’m a bit more over risk-reward ratio one.

So thatβs about that. Thanks for watching the video, and I’ll be looking forward to seeing you next time. Until then, happy trading.

I was also looking for this levels on usdjpy
Anyway, i think the trend on usdjpy will go down wiht the macro data announcment so fundamentally would play short on this imo. We will see it soon.
I wish you all luck
Very nice Setup, clean and good explained.
