Getting Started
📈 Visual Overview
After adding the EZ Volume Profile to your chart, you’ll see a horizontal histogram overlay on your price chart. This histogram represents the volume traded at each price level within your selected range.
📊 Longer bars = more volume traded at that price
The profile forms a distinct shape often referred to as a market profile or volume profile
This shape helps you visualize where market participants are most active
✅ This provides key insight into market structure, institutional interest, and potential trade zones.
🧠 Core Concepts
To effectively use the EZ Volume Profile, it’s important to understand the following foundational components:
🎯 Point of Control (POC)
The POC is the price level where the highest volume was traded within the selected range
It represents the most agreed-upon fair value by market participants
Visually marked as a horizontal line across your chart
Often acts as a strong support/resistance level
📦 Value Area
The Value Area encompasses the price range where a specified percentage of all volume occurred (default: 68%).
Value Area High (VAH) – Upper boundary
Value Area Low (VAL) – Lower boundary
This range captures where most trading occurred and often serves as a containment zone for price action.
🟥🟩 Delta Profile
The Delta Profile displays the difference between buying and selling volume at each price level.
🟩 Green bars – More buying volume → bullish pressure
🟥 Red bars – More selling volume → bearish pressure
This helps you identify aggressive buyers/sellers at specific price levels and gauge directional bias.
