How do I interpret Volume Profile (VPVR) to locate high-volume nodes?
By Easy Money Scanner · Educational reference · Not investment advice
The short answer
Volume Profile (VPVR) displays trading volume at specific price levels rather than over time, helping identify high-volume nodes where significant trading activity, and thus potential support/resistance, has occurred.
How it works
The Point of Control (POC) marks the price with the highest traded volume, while low-volume nodes represent prices the market moved through quickly, often acting as areas of fast price movement in future sessions.
An example
A stock consistently trading heavily near $45 builds a high-volume node there that traders watch as likely support on future pullbacks.
Risk & limitations
Volume Profile reflects historical activity and doesn't guarantee future price will react the same way at those same levels.
