What are Volume Candles and how to use themVolume Candles are a great chart type you can use to integrate volume analysis into your trading. TradingView is a superb platform that offers this chart type in real-time, so you can immediately get a completely different feel of what the market is actually doing. As an experienced trader, understanding volume candles is crucial in getting a deeper insight into market dynamics. Unlike standard candlestick charts, which focus primarily on price movement, volume candles combine price action with the strength of trading activity (volume). This offers a unique perspective that can give you an edge in reading market sentiment and momentum. What Are Volume Candles? Volume candles are modified candlestick charts where the width of the candle is proportional to the trading volume during the corresponding time period. The typical candlestick elements—open, high, low, and close prices—are still present, but the volume aspect adds an additional layer of information, enhancing the clarity of price action. Key Features of Volume Candles: Height: Represents price movement (just like in regular candlesticks). Width: Indicates the volume of trades within that period. Unique Information You Can Extract from Volume Candles: 1. Volume-Driven Price Action Volume candles show how much trading interest exists at various price levels. When you observe a large volume candle, it tells you that a lot of market participants were active at that price. Conversely, a thin candle signals lower activity. This helps you: A. Identify levels where strong participation occurs (institutional players what I call the puppet master). B. Spot consolidation zones where volume is low, which often precedes significant price moves. 2. Momentum Confirmation High-volume candles that align with price trends suggest strong momentum. Wide Bullish Candles: If you see a wide up candle during an uptrend, it indicates that the buying pressure is backed by solid volume. This gives more credibility to the uptrend and hints at a continued move upward. Wide Bearish Candles: Similarly, a wide down candle during a downtrend signals strong selling pressure. Volume Candle Chart can also be used for day trading purposes where you need to act FAST. This TradingView chart type is extremely good so you don't need to compare the traditional volume bars on the bottom of the chart. IMPORTANT: You must understand the puppet master mentality, which gives you context. *** EXTRA: You can use this theme color.

GBPUSD - Short Trade IdeaHello guys, Relatively straight-forward idea here. Price took out buyside liquidity in the form of equal highs, on an additional level outside the view of the chart as well. This is a trade to retrace back into a discount and take out sellside liquidity, as well as return to a weekly BISI. Trade is illustrated at a market order at current price with stoploss above the high. DCA limit entries can be taken if price retraces. As usual, be wary of high impact news taking out the high one more time. Enjoy <3 - R2F

WheatUSD Oanda Buying Breakout Trend ContinuesRealising my folly from my previous trade, I recognised my faults. Recap - 1st - I traded with the Higher Time Frame and Entry Time Frame Trends, but I am actually entering on a opposing trend against the Lower Time Frame, and that is why the price never move in my intended direction after hours. The opposing trend movement is also a sign that price is tanking, and that the Big Boys might not be into this product anymore. 2nd - Trade Breakout Trends was my thang. But I subconsciously/consciously shifted my setups to Trend Following which is to buy high and sell higher. Low winrate, needs to gather a ton of trades before the results show, stressful way to trade. I recognised my fault and now I shifted myself back to Breakout Trends. I would like to add on also that, I would see this as a price game instead of a time frame game. But I also recognise that 50/60MA on the 15Minutes Time Frame is very powerful, and I called it Duck Hunting and I would be hunting ducks again, on the 15 Minutes Time Frame. Would I trade on the 4H Time Frame or the Hourly? It's a price game so as long as the price is right, and it aligns with my point 1 and 2, I would. 2019SGT 22052024

Riding the Trend on CH20CHFBought as I recognised the strong moving trend of CH20CHF trending on the 6EMA discounted price zone. Despite multiple small "sellers" selling, price continued to trend upwards, and strongly. Currently the buyers want the CH20CHF, so I bought some too, in hopes of selling to the next Big Boy Buyer. Both TP at 1R. It isn't exactly 1R for me in terms of dollars(SGD), its more of like 1R = 28$ +- SGD, and it is fine. 1418SGT 21052024

Buying HK33HKD Oanda On An Up TrendRising demand for HK33HKD over several days on the Daily Time Frame based on the 6EMA. I bought HK33HKD on both my FTMO 10K Challenge Phase One and on my Oanda Main Account. Discount offered by seller at 6EMA on 4H Time Frame. Initial SL set is wide, because I want to give myself more time if I am losing, to decide if I want to exit for a small loss or win instead of having it as a full blown 1R loss. By setting my SL wide initially, my risk per pip becomes significantly smaller. Besides, I am risking about 10% per trade(based on my previous account size). If all is well, I will start trading 50$ SGD per trade next month. All is well = My account size reach 1k SGD(currently sitting on 906$ SGD) and that it is a new month. 0950SGT 20052024 Feeling groggy. Add : Now, instead of analysing the Daily Time Frame, first. I analysis the entry time frame first. Why? Because over the years I realised that i missed out on alot of opportunities that are better than the ones I am waiting for, because I analyse my watch list selections on the Daily Time Frame first. By doing a top down analysis, I miss out on strong trends that are not visible on the Daily Time Frame, because price could be in a range on the Daily, but it has yet to reach the Daily's Major S&R levels. And so, the trend on the entry time frame is tradable, but I missed it because I have already eliminated it during my selection phase. TLDR So, I am doing a bottoms up analysis from now on because I am missing out on trending opportunities on the lower time frame that is not visible on the higher time frame. 0954SGT 20052024

Trade Like A Sniper - Episode 7 - ETHUSD - (16th May 2024)This video is part of a video series where I backtest a specific asset using the TradingView Replay function, and perform a top-down analysis in order to frame ONE high-probability setup. I choose a random point of time to replay, and begin to work my way down the timeframes. Trading like a sniper is not about entries with no drawdown. It is about careful planning, discipline, and taking your shot at the right time in the best of conditions. A couple of things to note: - I cannot see news events. - I cannot change timeframes without affecting my bias due to higher-timeframe candles revealing its entire range. - I cannot go to a very low timeframe due to the limit in amount of replayed candlesticks In this session I will be analyzing ETHUSD, starting from the Monthly chart. - R2F
