Main Objective:

Map volume distribution by price level to identify:

High liquidity areas

Low liquidity areas

Imbalances between buyers and sellers

This indicator is powerful to understand the market structure and identify high probability areas for operations! 🎯

1. POC (Point of Control)

Linha Amarela - Price with highest traded volume

Area of ​​greatest liquidity and price

Natural support/resistance

2. Value Area

White line lines - Area where 70% of the volume was traded

VAH (Value Area High) - Upper limit

VAL (Value Area Low) - Lower limit

Market balance zone

3. Cores of Volume

🟢 Green - Dominant Buying Volume

🔴 Vermelho - Dominant selling volume

Bar Length = Volume Intensity

📊 Use Strategies

1. Identification of Supports and Resistances

• POC functions as support/resistance dynamic

• Value Area defines balance zone

• Important S/R profile edges

2. Breakout Analysis

• Break above VAH → High trend

• Break below the VAL → Downtrend

• Non-break volume confirms movement

3. Entry Points

• Purchase: Retest the VAL with buyer volume

• Sell: Retest VAH with seller volume

• Fade: Operate against extremes of the profile
