All language subtitles for 1. Intra-bar profile

The lowest representation of the volume
profile is when we look at the volume

distribution within a candlestick.

More advanced platforms are usually
used.

In fact, this particular chart was
obtained from NinjaTrader, not

It is a type of profile and
configuration designed for the scalping

-day trader using very low timeframes.

The information it gives us on a
conceptual level is exactly the same.

Depending on the configuration we set,
The distribution can show us the value

zone, the VPOC, and other trading
levels.

In this case, it only shows us the
volume according to the price level in

VPOC, identified as a yellow dot.

This data is the most important because,
if analyzed well, it can give us

important information about what the
market is likely to do.

For example, we need to understand that
all price reversals follow the same

pattern regardless of the duration of
the reversal.

And this pattern always consists of
three steps, exhaustion, absorption, and

initiative. To reverse a bearish
movement, the lack of interest or

sellers to continue selling will
converge.

Absorption, which will be the first
buying entry by large traders passively,

the aggressiveness or initiative of
buyers that will push the price upward.

Now, using an intra -bar volume profile
will greatly facilitate the

identification of this type of reversal
patterns, if we have previously learned

price and volume analysis and, in
particular, the application of the law

effort and results.

While it is true that TradingView does
not yet have this type of advanced

charts, we can use an indicator that
will allow us to analyze the same

information. First, click on the
Indicators tab in the top menu.

Secondly, we type the name of the
indicator in the search engine, which is

called Periodic Volume Profile, and the
indicator which is also owned by the

platform, will appear.

Click on it and it will be added to the
chart.

It is important that the indicator
configuration is set to one bar period.

This drop -down allows us to select
other time frames, but for the use we

to make, we need to select the bar
period.

The volume of the value area is not very
important because we will not analyze

the value area itself.

We will mainly use the VPOC of the
candlestick.

and the rest of the configuration will
be as shown.

And that's how this indicator would be
visualized.

It's not as visual as the other one, but
the key information, where most of the

volume is, we can analyze.

It allows us to identify the market
rotation pattern, mainly absorption and

initiative, which are the two most
common and easily identified stages.

We will come back to these charts later
and explain the rotation action as a

whole in detail.

The key to this type of intra -bar
profile is the location of the high

nodes, especially the VPOC.

When a bullish candlestick closes on the
highs and leaves the VPOC in the upper

third, it suggests a passive sell entry.

The price has reached a point where it
is now attractive for sellers to start

positioning. These types of signals are
early signs of anticipation of the turn.

Conversely, in bearish movements, when
we see the VPOC at the bottom of the

candlestick, it indicates that there is
likely to be an absorption that could

precede a reversal to the upside.

On the other hand, if we want to
identify the aggressiveness on one side,

initiative will generally appear in
favor of the movement and give rise to

That is to say, for the selling
initiative, it is ideal to identify a

candlestick that indicates weakness and
that the VPOC is in the upper third of

the candlestick. And conversely, for the
buy initiative, a candlestick that

indicates strength, and the VPOC in the
lower third.

The reading of this behavior is that if
we identify the appearance of the big

traders mainly in the VPOC, the fact
that this action also has continuity to

that side suggests that there is really
a commitment to move the price in that

direction. It is a classic effort
-result reading where we look for price

and volume to be in harmony.
