Volume Profile

Concept

  • Derived from Gauss Bell: a tool to organize data
  • Indicates where most data is concentrated (average)
  • Example: Ice cream sales, student grades, housing market
  • Importance of understanding the average (fair price) and deviations

Application in Trading

  • Fair price helps gauge when to buy or sell an asset
  • Trading below fair price = buying cheap
  • Trading above fair price = selling expensive
  • Key components:
    • Point of Control (POC): Level where price spent the most time
    • Value Area: The 70% area around the POC
  • Seek trades far from POC for better profitability

Volume Profile in Charts

  • Example with the S&P 500
  • Use of Volume Profile on different legs/cycles
  • Importance of understanding fair value for better trade entries
  • Profile tools do not predict future, but aid in making informed decisions

Elliot Wave Blocks

Concept

  • Based on recognizing Order Blocks (large institutional orders)
  • Institutions trade in chunks to avoid moving the market drastically
  • Order blocks help predict areas of significant market activity

Application in Elliot Wave Theory

  • Identifying key order blocks during market cycles
  • Combining Volume Profile and Order Blocks with Elliot Wave
  • Objective approach to trading with fewer subjective decisions

Practical Examples

  • Identifying and drawing Elliot Wave Blocks on given market cycles
  • Examples on different time frames (daily, 1-minute chart, etc.)
