Volume Profile Handbook 2.0
Volume Profile Handbook 2.0
FORMULA
HANDBOOK
Hello everybody, and welcome. I'm Korbs, and this is the Volume Profile Formula. I'm very excited that
you're here, and I'm very excited to go through this training presentaAon with you today, where we're going
to be talking about how to start, how to grow, how to build a six figure trading business, with around two
to four hours a day of screen Ame, focusing on only one method. Really, what we're talking about here is
building a consistently profitable trading business, being very efficient with our Ame and with our
resources, and geFng dialed in clear and very focused on how we're going about this and the method that
we are using. So, like I said, I'm extremely excited to be going through this with you. I remember the first
Ame that I was introduced to the Volume Profile, and I know what it's done for me and what it's done for
my trading and really my life. So, I'm very happy to have packaged this all together and to be able to explain
this, to pass this on, and to go through this training with you today. So, let's go ahead and jump straight
into it.

This is the overview. This is the roadmap of what we're going to be covering in this presentaAon today.
What we're going to be talking about here is building a six figure trading business, using the Volume Profile
strategy. So, there's specific steps that have to happen, in specific orders. There's informaAon that we need
to be following, we're going to be explaining all of that. Then we're going to move on and understand how
to look at the market differently. This is just what I'm calling, looking at the market in Matrix Mode, and it's
really stepping outside of how the masses are showing up, looking at the market, being confused, geFng
frustrated, blowing out their accounts, stepping outside of that and looking at the market in a whole new
way.
This is just going to introduce some foundaAonal informaAon that we need to be aware of, and that we
need to know. Then once we have that laid as a foundaAon, we can move on and start talking about the
Volume Profile Formula. This is going to be really the meat of our training, where we're going to talk a lot
about the profiles, the different types of profiles. I'm going to show you how to set those up, and we're
going to see what are the different elements that make up the formula, so that when we look down at our
charts, when we're firing up our screens, when we're firing up our charts and we're looking at the screens,
being able to understand how are we coming up with profitable trade ideas, day in and day out of the
market. Then once we have that, we understand what goes into it, and we're aware of how to do our
analysis and build out quality trade ideas, that's not enough.
We need to be able to move on from there, and to pair that with some very specific management. The
analysis porAon of what we do is very important, but we need to take it a step beyond that, and trade well.
So, what we're going to go through is, what I just call Next Level Trade Management. These are going to be
some very specific steps, some very specific frameworks that you can operate within. This is exactly how
I'm trading. Then we're going to wrap things up, talking about the mental side of what we do here. Really,
as you go through this process and we lay some of this foundaAon, and we get the tacAcal steps in place
that we need, and we understand how to pair that with some next level management, all the steps that
come before will somewhat fall apart if we lose the baMle on the mental side of things.
What we're going to talk about today in our training is a couple of the elements that are very unique to
trading, and some of the issues that we're going to face as traders, they don't really show up in any other
areas of our life. You can have other businesses, you can be involved in other ventures, but you're not really
going to face these issues. So, I want to talk to you about why, and we're going to start laying some
awareness here, and then some tacAcal steps that we can take to help combat this, to make sure that we
don't lose the baMle just on the mental side of things, once we understand pracAcally and tacAcally what
we need to do. That's what we're going to be talking about in this session, and this roadmap here and
everything we're going to navigate, is just with the end goal of mine, of understanding, what is the

blueprint? What is the roadmap for starAng, for growing a six figure trading business, while being very
efficient with the resources and Ame we have available, and geFng very dialed in and focusing on one
method only.
As we're talking about starAng and growing a trading business, the first thing that we need to
understand is the model for how this is done. It's very much been my observaAon that a lot of people come
into trading, and there's no specific plan. There's no specific processes that they have in place. It's very
aimless and they're taking a lot of random acAons and random steps at random Ames. Their trading
businesses are just confusing and very random. So, just like in everything in life, there's specific steps that
need to happen to get the outcome that you want, and we need to take these steps in a very specific way.
So, let me introduce you to what I'm calling The Model. The model for how you start a trading business,
it has to start with skill development. Now, the big issue that most traders face when they come into
trading is they're very scaMered in their approach. They know a liMle bit about a lot of different things, but
they don't know a lot about anything. They come in and they might try foreign currencies for a liMle bit and
lose money doing that, so they'll jump over and try opAons for a liMle bit. They know a liMle bit about the
Iron Condor Strategy, and they'll jump to something else. They know a liMle bit about RSI and a liMle bit
about MACD, and the list goes on. They just know a liMle bit about a wide variety of things, but they've
never stuck with something long enough to get good at it.
They've never built up any real skill. So, before we can grow our trading business and before we can get
this thing off the ground, we have to get good at something. The path that we're talking about today is
going to be the Volume Profile, and it's very important that you just focus on one method and become a
specialist. Now, the reason we want to focus on one method is because this is just the fastest way to get
good at something. If your aMenAon is scaMered, and you're focusing on a lot of different indicators, and a

lot of different markets, and a lot of different products, the learning curve is being exaggerated. So, what
we want to do is we want to narrow our focus, and we want to get very good at one method, we want to
get very good at one market, more than likely just one product in some cases, but we want to narrow the
focus and we want to build some skill.
Now, once we have skill, what this looks like is we're able to produce some consistent results. They're
probably not that impressive, they're probably a liMle bit mixed, but we can get consistent gains out of the
market when we look at our results over a sample size. Now, the next step for this is we need to be sizing
up. We don't want to change anything, we don't want to bring in any new bells, any new whistles, any new
systems, nothing. We just keep doing the same thing with larger and larger size. A lot of Ames, traders will
start learning some type of a method and it's going well, and they're making money, and as the old saying
goes, it worked so well I stopped doing it. Instead of just sAcking with what they've learned, they start
changing things up and incorporaAng following other methods and exploring other products, and they take
the progress that they've made, they confuse it with a lot of other informaAon, and then they start geFng
very mixed and bad results.
So, what we want to do, and the model here for how we grow a trading business, is just get good at
something. Talking about today, the Volume Profile. Then once we're geFng some results with that, we
want to just start sizing up, doing the same thing but just increasing the size, and leFng the power of scale
that we have in trading work for us. Then the last thing we're going to be doing is stretching out. This is
where we can add in extra products, extra markets, extra systems, but we only want to do this aVer we're
execuAng well, and aVer we've sized up. Now, you can see this progression of just skill development, sizing
up, stretching out.
This is the model, and what happens to most traders, they come in and they start with stretching out.
They are just all over the place, a lot of products they trade, a lot of markets, a lot of informaAon and
indicators on their charts. This model is very similar to anything really, but let's just say like a load of
laundry. If you want a clean load of laundry to come out of the machine, you need to follow all the steps
and they need to happen in order. You can't jump right to the spin cycle and just expect that the laundry's
going to come out the way you want it. Just like in this business, we can't just jump to sizing up or
stretching out, or any of these steps before we've built skill, before we've sized up, before we've stretched
out.
So, this liMle breakdown here, and this liMle model, is just this is how we start, this is how we grow a
successful trading business, and we need to do it in this order. Now, jumping into the presentaAon, I'm very
excited to get into this because I know the power of what we're going to talk about today. I hope that
you're excited as well to be learning this informaAon and having access to this. So, we're talking today
about how we use the Volume Profile and real Ame market generated informaAon to find highly profitable

trades, just consistently day in and day out. All while reducing the dependency on lagging indicators and
low quality buy here, sell here, systems. Really, what I'm going to introduce through this training is just a
new way of looking at the market that is probably different than what you've been doing, or the things that
you've been introduced before.
There's certain core elements that are going to make this up, starAng with some discreAonary trading,
strong principles that we're going to have in place, resources like the Volume Profile, volume weighted
average price, trigger levels. We're going to go through all of these in detail, but this new way of looking at
the market is just designed to be able to look at the charts, and to be able to come up with high quality
profiAng trade ideas consistently. What you'll see is, as we jump into the meat of this training, these
principles, the Volume Profile, V-WAP, trigger levels, these individual elements, we're going to be talking
about in detail. I'm excited to really share a lot of this with you and to pull open the curtain of what goes on
and how we're using this informaAon.
Now, introducing this new way that maps around some of these points, I want to show you and just
give you a brief idea of what this looks like. So, if we were to just pull up a chart at any given Ame, what
we're looking at right now are three different days, and we're looking at three different Volume Profiles.
Now, what I'm going to walk you through is just for the sake so you can start geFng an idea, we obviously
haven't talked any details yet, so a lot of this should be confusing. But so you can understand where we're
going with this, we want to be able to look at our charts, and with some of these tools, so in this case,
being able to use a micro composite, draw around, intelligently draw a micro composite and understand
where value is. Now, in this example we're looking at, this is a day that's happened very recently, where the
market was slated to open on this third day, right where that arrow is poinAng.

Now, because of the profile formula, and because of the strong principles that we have in place, and
because of some of the tools like micro composite profiles, we have a game plan, and we understand that
when the market opens here, we know what we should be looking to do. Here's an example of a live trade
that was taken inside of our trading room. The same exact scenario we're looking at, just drilling it in a liMle
bit. But as the market opened and we pushed higher, and we tested this value area high, we knew that as
this market was moving up, we should be looking to fade this acAon, and we should be looking to get short.
As this value area held, entering in on a short posiAon, using a specific management process to miAgate
risk and to secure profits as the trade was working.
Then ulAmately taking off the trade as we reached the other side of value. Now, there's a lot of
elements of this, of what do the parts of the profile mean? What are these principles, and why were these
posiAons taken off there? None of that maMers right now, and the purpose of this is not to bog you down
or confuse you with a lot of the details, because all of this we're going to be explaining in the training
session. But what I want to show you is just something visual so that you can start to see that we don't
have to rely on MACD. We don't have to rely on anything outside of ourselves. We can look at the market,
we can look at the real Ame informaAon that the market is giving us, and then we can understand what we
should be looking to do and what is most likely to happen next.
Then we can just align ourselves with those ideas. So, just a quick snippet, again a lot of this should not
be very clear yet, so don't let any of this overwhelm you. But this is just what we're going to be looking at.
This method works extremely well, not just for large accounts or for seasoned traders, although it obviously
works great there. But this is also a very good method if you are starAng off, and especially if you have very
low capital. What we're looking at right now, this is a case study that I've done, where we can link down
and give access to these brokerage statements, so you can look them over. You can also find this online,
where I've done a YouTube video on our channel, and have walked through this case study, where I started
with just a liMle over $1,500 in a small account.

Then over the course of 20 trading days, grew that up to $12,000, a liMle over $12,000. StarAng off
with that round $1,500, that's a very small amount of capital to be in the markets with, and ending this in a
very small sample size of having now over $10,000, which is a really good chunk to get going. There was
nothing added to this, this was just all done organically. But using this exact method, starAng off with a
small amount of money, just day aVer day aVer day, being able to jump in, profit from the market, with the
end result of growing the account aVer 20 trading days to just over $12,000. This is, as I've said, a nice
chunk of capital that you can start with, and the purpose of this and the purpose of even doing this case
study was just to showcase that you don't have to come into this with large amounts of money.
You don't have to even put in large amounts of money iniAally. You have this down and you understand
these steps. You can take a small amount of money and you can grow that organically, and it can happen in
a relaAvely short period of Ame. Now, this is what we're talking about, the six figure Volume Profile
strategy, and relaying some of the groundwork for the elements that go into this, some of the model at
high level, some of the parts that we're going to be covering. As we're diving into this, let me just take a
moment and introduce myself a liMle bit beMer. If for some reason you are not aware of who I am, just by
taking a moment and introducing a liMle bit of my story. One, it'll help the rest of this presentaAon go a
liMle bit beMer if we understand each other, even a liMle beMer. But also, hearing where I come from in this
business is going to be very important, because it's going to answer one of the biggest quesAons you
should have already asked yourself, which is, does this work?

Can I really make an income out of trading the markets? Or is this just some idealisAc dream, that just
sounds amazing being able to trade, but somebody like me who doesn't have a ton of money, or maybe
doesn't have a background in finance, or I'm not a Wall Street person, is it possible for me to trade
consistently and earn from the markets? My story, and me as a person, I'm living, breathing testament to
the fact that this can be done. Before geFng into trading, I had absolutely no background in finance. I had
no connecAons in this space. I didn't go to school for anything in finance. I, in fact, didn't go to school at all.
I have no college degree. I never went to college. I didn't even graduate from high school, even through to
this day, I don't have a high school diploma. I don't have a GED.
Really, I felt like as those things were the Ame of my life when they should be happening, there was a
porAon of my life where I really felt like I was geFng gypped out of an educaAon, because it just wasn't my
path to go down some of these things like aMending high school or graduaAng. Really, what this forced me
to do is to go outside the box and to be more creaAve with what I would be doing as a business, or what I
would be doing to earn money. Instead of spending maybe the prime years of my life doing something a
liMle bit more stable, or doing something a liMle bit more tradiAonal, those weren't really opAons for me. I
started, even at an early age, looking outside of maybe tradiAonal things of how to create income.
Before I got into trading, the last thing I was doing is I started a very small business with a friend of
mine. We started extremely small, neither one of us had any money that we were coming from, or any help,
we had to bootstrap it. This was our first truck that we had. What we did is we pressure washed and we
washed windows. This is our first pressure washer that we got, and I remember we had to sign up and we
sold two pressure washing jobs before we could afford to get the pressure washer. Obviously, this was just
a few hundred dollars pressure washer that we started with, but everything started from zero. We were
just cleaning windows, we were pressure washing things, just very service industry business.
It grew, and we were able to get things together and get things more legiAmate. I remember this was
the first colored flyers that we were able to get. We started off with black and white flyers, but we were
just able to grow and get beMer equipment. We were able to get bigger equipment and move into other
aspects of business. We got into doing truck washing, big rigs, tractors and trailers, and that's really where
we made beMer money. But it was just in very service industry, service oriented industry that I came from.
Then transiAoning out of that, to make a long story short, I started off into trading. Very similarly to starAng
off in the service industry business, I started off with trading at just the boMom floor. I didn't know
anybody. I didn't have a ton of money to start off into this.
This right here was my first trading setup. I was using a monitor that I got off of Craigslist that was used
because that's what I could afford. It's a liMle hard to tell, but if you can see just what's happening here in
the corner, this is a blanket, and this was the bed that I was sleeping on. This is how close it was to my very
small working desk space. This was just a liMle bedroom that I was renAng out, but this is where it started

for me. I took this picture on this day specifically, it's very hard to tell, you can't see it very well, but the
PNL is showing on this chart and it's just over 10 points. At the Ame, I was trading the S&P 500, and the
way that translates out is this was just over $500.
I remember taking this picture, because I was so ecstaAc, and so blown away that I made $500 this
day, because coming from even just my background, I'm not coming from money. I understand the value of
a dollar, and I know what it's like and how long it takes out in the Arkansas heat, to be able to wash enough
windows or clean enough trucks to make $500. The fact that I could do that inside, in a climate controlled
room, being fairly comfortable, I knew that I was really onto something here. This is a Ame in my life when I
wasn't consistent, and I probably, the next day, lost all that money. But the fact that I could do it just
showed me that there was potenAal, and that there was something here if I could just crack into it and
sAck with it long enough to get good at it.
Just like with my previous business, being able to stay in trading, and being able to transiAon into doing
this full Ame, just allowed me to start upgrading every area of my life. It allowed me to get my first really
nice car, the dream car at the Ame that I had. It allowed me to just take this on the road and be able to
transiAon into just traveling full Ame. I spent several years just being able to travel, be able to work, being
able to live in some very cool countries, and be able to experience some really just topnotch things. Again,
in different countries and in different places, all around the world, and even leading me up to just get
coming back off the road, and being stateside and being where I'm at right now. Even being able to build a
bit of a dream office for myself just the way that I want it, and just seeing this progression. Everything that
I've experienced in life, coming from where I come from, Hot Springs, Arkansas, coming from no financial
background, no real educaAonal background.

I owe a lot to trading, and I'm excited to talk about trading. I love this space of trading because of what
it's done for my life, and I'm very excited to be sharing some of this with you, of exactly how I've been able
to make this possible. You're not the first people that I've been sharing this with or showing this to, and we
have clients inside of TRADACC like Gordon, who when he came to us was trying to make that transiAon
out of a simulator into a live funded account, and finally geFng the results and geFng the consistency he
needs to make that change. Then being able to go on and have big days, especially at the Ame of 600 plus
dollars locked in. Or having days where he is puFng up over $2,000, closer to $2,500 locked in, and being
able to break these trades down and understand why he's doing these things, and why they're working.
Also clients like MarAn, who is able to put on a nine day win streak using this exact method. Knowing
that there's only five trading days in a week, this is almost a two week stretch of just green day, green day,
green day, green day. Also being able to break down his trades and understand why things are working, and
having days like this, where it's 300 plus dollars on the S&P, 400 plus dollars on a product like the Russell,
being able to lock these things in. Even members like Chris, who had been trading for an extremely long
Ame, eight plus years, and understanding the informaAon we're talking about today, changed his trading
forever, in his own words, and was finally able to make solid, consistent gains. Then at Ames, in certain
market condiAons, even huge gains.
That's what we're going to be talking about today, and I'm very, very excited to be sharing this stuff
with you as well, and walking you through, and just diving in to this informaAon. Now, before we can get
started, and before we can introduce even maybe the new way of trading that we were talking about, I
want to spend a moment and just talk about what most traders are struggling with right now. This is just
the old way of looking at the markets. There might have been a Ame when we were first having some of
these advances, when some of these outlets were very valid. But there's no edge, and there's no consistent
ability in viewing the market in one of these lenses. Unfortunately, this is how almost everybody is viewing
the market. So, the old way of trading was looking at lagging indicators, coming in, having it set up and
configuring your moving averages or your RSI, or whatever it might be, to specific seFngs.

When this line crosses this line, you enter. If this line crosses this line, you get out. That type of very
staAc, oversimplified way and method of trading the market, will always leave you one step behind. There's
no sustainable edge in this, especially anymore. The markets have become more sophisAcated, and the very
nature of a lagging indicator, when you're looking at something like a MACD or a Bollinger Band. There's a
reason they call these lagging indicators because of how they operate. Price has to do something, and then
that indicator will pick up on what price just did, put that movement into some type of an algorithm, and
then it will plot out a line. It'll crunch it into some type of math and then it'll plot a dot or a bar or whatever
the indicator is. Because of how it works, it always is going to be lagging behind price.
It's also very difficult to even get a read on these things in real Ame, because of how they move. In
hindsight, it's very obvious because they're not moving, but when they move it's extremely difficult to get
on board with this. Really, as we'll see with any of this old mentality of looking at the market, it's just the
idea of almost like a goose that lays golden eggs. It's this idea that there's something out there, that if this
line crosses this line I can just push a buMon and I'm going to be able to make incredible amounts of money.
It sounds amazing, and there's a lot of informaAon out there about indicators, but these aren't things we
need to rely on. These are things that might be supplemental at best, but if your enAre strategy is revolved
around relying on indicators to tell you what to do, I know that you're having a lot of trading frustraAons
and you're not consistently profitable.
Another old way of looking at the market is just by copying signals. Now, there's a lot of outlets for this
and this whole area is just extremely messy, for a lot of reasons. Some of the reasons I've listed below, but
one of the big issues is, it sounds good, the idea to just pay a fee and then just copy somebody else's
signals. There's a lot of reasons why pracAcally this doesn't work, but one of the biggest things is that it
removes any type of confidence that you have in what you're doing, and it removes your personal power.
Now, one thing that we do in our trading is, we deal with a lot of stresses, and when we're in the heat of it
and you're looking at your money going up and down, and you're watching these posiAons, if you have no
idea what you're doing, or why you're doing it, you're just following somebody, it's impossible and it's too
much to ask that you're going to have the ability or the convicAon to hold on to moves, the way that you
need to.
Because you're not going to have the confidence level, and rightly so, you shouldn't be confident in
that type of an acAon. The whole idea of just maybe copying signals, it might sound good at some lower
version of yourself, but the idea of geFng ahead in life, or geFng successful by just blindly following
somebody, or just by clicking buMons because somebody tells you to, again, I think that if we really think
about this, we'll understand that this is not a reality. Although, there are thousands and hundreds of
thousands of traders that are trying to chase wealth by copying signals, and it's a very broken thing to do.

Then lastly, the last thing I have here is just algorithmic bot trading. There's a lot of flaws in this, and
one of the biggest issues is a lot of mystery in how these things work, and because of just some easy
jargon, it's very easy for certain algorithms to sound sophisAcated. But what it actually takes to trade the
markets and to build an algorithm that can do that, is insanely complicated. It requires a level of
sophisAcaAon that is just unbelievable. The idea that you can just lease, for a very small fee, this bot that is
just going to go to work for you and print you insane amounts of money, it really goes in with everything
we're just talking about here. Most of the old way of trading is just hope trumping logic. If we really
thought about these things, the idea that all we have to do is sit at a computer, push buMons when
indicators tell me to, and I'm going to make wealth.
Or the idea I can just copy signals and I'm going to make millions of dollars, or just put money into this
bot. And it's going to make me all the money I need. All of these ideas, if we just talk about them out loud,
they don't make sense. But in the moment we let hope trump logic, and the idea that it might work is more
compelling than the logic that it's not going to. We end up taking these steps, and a lot of traders get stuck
in these very old, outdated, horrible ways to look at the market. One of the biggest issues with all of this is
that it's trying to just replace any skill and any personal responsibility. It's trying to make things automated.
It's trying to make the decisions made for you, and take away the ability that you need to have your own
just personal power and make your own decisions.
Now, this is one of the cornerstones of the new way of trading that I just want to introduce, and it
starts with discreAonary trading. I know that far too oVen, most traders come into this and they're trying to
avoid discreAon. They're trying to avoid having to make a decision. It's very important that we start with
the fact of understanding. To trade in the world today, we have to be able to think, we have to have a skill
level, and we have to be able to make decisions. Now, one of the big issues here is that if traders ever tried
to trade with discreAon, most of the Ame they end up just trading on emoAon, and trading from their gut,

and they just trade all over the place and they make a lot of very random acAons. So, what we'll do based in
discreAonary trading, is we have to have some very strong principles, some guidelines, some rules that we
never violate.
Then we make decisions inside of those principles. It's very important that this is going to keep us in
line. Then we have very specific tools. These are what I'll be talking about, and I'll be sharing with you, and
when we get to this porAon of the training, you'll see. We'll talk about these principles, we'll talk about the
Volume Profile, the different types of profiles. We're going to talk about the volume weighted average
price, how we draw trigger levels, how we trade off of these levels. UlAmately, we're going to use this new
way of looking at the market to come up with our own trade ideas, not to rely on a bot to tell us, not to rely
on a text signal alert to tell us when to enter, or an indicator. But to be able to look at the market, put
together the informaAon that the market has given us, and come up with high quality trade ideas.
It’s a truly beauAful way to look at the market, and I'll be excited for you to start looking at the market
that way as well. Really, it's very Amely that you are here and that we're looking through this right now,
because we are in a golden era of online trading. Even with the relaAvely short involvement that I've had
with the market, things are so different. Just a generaAon ago, like one generaAon before I got into all this,
the world was very different. The technology was different. The access that we had, the fees we had to pay,
the technology that we had, the tools and the resources that we had, these things were completely,
completely different. When we're looking at maybe some of the obvious things about what makes a trading
business great, we can't ignore the fact also that currently right now, with the advances that we've had in
the trading industry, but also just with technology and in the world, it is a truly remarkable Ame to be
involved.

I hope that you're geFng excited as well, to be diving into this and going through this training. Even as
we're going to be puFng together piece by piece here, I hope that you're geFng excited as well. So, let me
show you, and we'll move on to the second step, which is viewing the market in matrix mode, and seeing
what professionals see. The way that we're going to be looking at the market differently is with the Volume
Profile. So, I want to say some introductory things about this and lay some groundwork so that we can
understand where this comes from, why this informaAon is important, why we use it, and really why it's so
powerful.
So, the first thing I want to talk about is just the history of the Volume Profile and understanding where
this comes from. Because before we ever had the Volume Profile, as we know, and we use it today, there
was the Market Profile, and this was the first thing that was brought to the world and released out into the
market, as this unique way of looking at price. What this tool was designed to do was to replicate what you
were seeing on the trading floor. This tool was meant to be a subsAtute, so without being there in the pit,
physically trade-
Being there in the pit at physically trading at these locaAons. You could sAll see what was going on and
sAll see where there was interest and where there was not interest. And so if you were a pit trader back in
the day and you were just out on the exchange floor, you could see and just look out and observe as price
got to certain levels, you could see excitement and you could see people raising their voices and you could
see orders being put in. And then as we got to other prices, you could see the same thing happen on the
opposite side. The excitement died down, the volume died down, the orders dying down. And just by
looking at the floor, you could start to observe what prices there was a lot of interest in and what prices
were less popular or there just wasn't as much interest in.

And what the Market Profile for the first Ame ever, it allowed us to be able to look and without being
on the floor, without being in the pit as a floor trader, be able to look and to see at different levels that
price was geFng to where there was interest and where there wasn't interest. So this was a revoluAonary
thing and a brand new way of looking at the market. This was released in the 1980s and it was the Market
Profile. And what this allowed us to do is to look at just candles and to look at charts and to look at the
market and be able to see behind those candles. Not just that price was here or that price moved down
here or that price moved up, but to be able to see what is going on at these individual levels and at this
individual price. Now with the evoluAon of Ame, and just with the evoluAon of technology, we now have
the Volume Profile.
The big difference between market and Volume Profile is that Market Profile is based on Ame. A
Volume Profile like we're seeing right now is not based on Ame, it's just based on volume. And so what we
get to see with the Volume Profile is that every single price exactly how much buying and exactly how
much selling is going on. And the reason that we didn't have that with the Market Profile was because of
limitaAons in technology. We didn't have the compuAng power. We didn't have the bandwidth. We didn't
have the technology to be able to get to the Ack clean data delivered right to our houses and right to our
computers. And so when this was released in the 1980s as the Market Profile, the informaAon was pumped
in periodically through Ame and so we saw a much less refined profile that sAll did the same job, but the
Volume Profile is much more refined and instead of relying on Ame, we now get to see at every single level
where the buying and where the selling happens.
Now, as we go through this presentaAon, we're going to be talking about why that's important and
what we do with this informaAon, but just understand as a framework where this came from. Released out
as this very unique way of looking at the market. This histogram that's turned on its side that allows you to
see where there's interest and where there's lack of interest. And this isn't an indicator, this isn't somebody
else telling you this, this is real Ame market generated informaAon. Now here's the anatomy if you will of a
profile. I just want to walk through some of these parts so that as we move forward, you understand

exactly what I'm talking about and exactly what I'm referring to. So let's just start off with the IniAal
Balance High and the IniAal Balance Low.
Now, this is not necessarily a part of the profile. For the products that I trade specifically, the S&P 500,
understanding where that iniAal balance high and where the iniAal balance low is, is a very important
metric. If you're trading other products, this might not be as valuable to you, but I consider it a part of the
Volume Profile, because the iniAal balance is a term and it is a metric that was brought out with the Market
Profile, so I consider it a part of what we do. But what this is showing us is the first hours range of the day.
So this is a 15-minute Ameframe. Each one of these bars represent 15 minutes. So what you'll see is the
first four bars, the low and the high represent the iniAal balance low and high respecAvely. So I always want
to understand where that is, and as the trading day goes on, this becomes a very important area.
Then we have secAon three, which is just the Point of Control. That's this pink line running straight
through the profile and what the Point of Control is, is it's the single most traded price on the profile. So
when we're looking at the Volume Profile, we're looking at a high and a low, and then in between just every
single price, how much buying and how much selling happened. Now the Point of Control is of all the
prices that we bought and we sold, this is the one single price where the most buying and the most selling
occurred and we call that the Point of Control. And you'll see that these thinner areas, these shallow areas
on the profile are where less trading happened and these bulkier areas are where more trading happened.
And always where the Point of Control is, this is going to be the point that sAcks out the most because
again, we can think about it like the most popular price on the profile. Then we have Value Area High and
Value Area Low, and then this whole area is just value. So we have value area high, value area low, and
really this whole gray area is what we call value. Anything outside of this is outside of value. Now the value

area is where roughly 70% of all the volume has taken place. It's closer to 68%, but a lot of trading
packages will just do 70% by default, which is typically fine but 70% of the trade of all the trading
happened in this area and then 30% happened outside of this area, roughly. And then we have the value
area high, and we have the value area low.
So these will be terms that we use and these are the individual parts that just make up a profile. Like I
said, this is kind of the anatomy of a profile. And if we're looking at... Later in our training, we'll be looking at
micro-composites, and when we look at composite profiles or just one Intraday Profile like this, we're sAll
going to have the same elements that make it up, even if they look slightly different. Now, a good quesAon
to ask is why does the profile work? What makes this informaAon powerful? What makes this informaAon
important? And to really understand that we need to understand AucAon Market Theory. Now, this is a
topic that by the Atle, it might come off as kind of aggressive or something that would require a lot of study
and a lot of learning, but don't let the Atle of this throw you because I can assure you, this is a very simple
idea that I'll explain, and you're going to have absolutely no problem understanding this.
But if we're talking about the profile and understanding this on some of the foundaAonal levels, we
need to understand aucAon market theory, or it's going to be very difficult to fully understand what we're
doing and why we're doing it. So the way I'm going to explain this is with a very simple idea of flights that
are taking you from New York to Los Angeles and how much people are paying for Ackets. So what you'll
see on the right-hand side are just the individual prices and right now, what we'll have going on is just let's
say, normal market condiAons. And what you'll see is there'll be people that are on average paying about
$500 for their Acket. You might see somebody who is stepping in and booking a Acket last minute, and
they might be paying a liMle bit closer to $600. You might have somebody who comes in and books their
Acket way in advance and plans their trip, and maybe they get it at discount, so they're paying closer to
$400.

But if you just kind of see the average, any given day, you might be paying a liMle more or less, but for
the most part, people are paying about $500. And if you're looking to fly coach from New York to Los
Angeles, you'll expect to pay somewhere around $500. So that's what's normal, that's what's happening in
the world, that's what's happening in the market and then we'll have something happen, something step in,
some type of a change in market condiAons. So maybe there'll be something like a pandemic hit, a
worldwide pandemic that just changes a lot of stuff. And now aVer this pandemic hits, we'll have the same
amount of ability to move people. But now we have a drasAcally reduced demand for people that want to
be moved through airplanes. We might have governments stepping in and limiAng the amount of travel
that you can do.
We might have a large majority of people that are afraid to get the disease and to get infected, so they
don't want to be in public places. They don't want to be surrounded by people that they don't know, so
they'll opt in not to travel. And in these type of condiAons, what we'll see is prices start to move down.
Where now, instead of paying $500, nobody is
buying Ackets. So the prices of Ackets start to
drop and they'll drop and they'll drop, and they'll
conAnue to drop unAl they get to a place where
they're so cheap, people start stepping up and
buying Ackets. And what you'll see if something
like this were to happen, something like this did
happen, is Ackets got to a place where they were
so cheap, people were stepping up and booking
flights and people were enAced to maybe to get over their fear of catching this because they were so
aMracted of such a cheap Acket. So they would step up and they would book Ackets.
And then what you'll see is prices move down and you might see an assortment of prices, but as we
drop, we get to a new area where there's finally people that are willing to step up and buy and we have a
new area of value if you will get established. Where now the majority of people are paying around $200 for
that same Acket. So as Ame goes on, market condiAons are going to change again and we might
understand a lot more about the pandemic. There might be a vaccine release, so now people are feeling
more protected. Maybe the regulaAons are easing up so a lot more people have access to travel. And in
those type of condiAons, what we'll see is prices will move back up because now, there is more demand
and more people want access to these Ackets.
And what you'll see is as prices go up, they don't just go up to some random spot, they return to an
area of previous value. When market condiAons are normal, prices are going to go back to this around

$500 price range, give or take, depending on when
you book your Acket but on average, most people
are going to be paying around $500. And then
what'll happen is there'll be another change in
market, we might have the end of the year
approaching. And so now, there's holidays, there's
Christmas, there's New Years and so we'll have a
massive increase of the amount of people who
want to get on a plane and fly somewhere. And
with that massive increase in demand, prices will start to climb and prices will climb and climb and climb to
where now the same Acket that might have cost you $500 when there wasn't a holiday coming, might cost
you now closer to $800.
Anything that has a price point is going to go through a very similar process like this. And what we'll
noAce is price is trying to match together buyers and sellers. And if there is a lack of demand and people
aren't paying these prices anymore, then prices will drop and they will conAnue to drop unAl people step

up and start buying. And as price is going through these inflecAons, it's not moving in random places. We
keep returning to these places of previously established value. Now, this concept right here, whether we're
looking at Ackets or we're looking at the S&P 500 is very important to understand because the Volume
Profile as prices move up and as prices move down, we get an insight into this. And if we can understand
this as a foundaAon, and this is part of AucAon Market Theory, that the market exists not to try and bully
people, not to run over the liMle guy, not to hunt your stops.
The markets exist to match together buyers and sellers and price will move up and price will move
down, trying to match those. And when we find buyers and sellers that are willing to do price, that are
willing to do business, value is established and trading happens in large quanAAes. Now, understanding this
very simple idea of just supply and demand. We want to pair this with balance and discovery. Balance and
discovery is how markets move. You pull up any chart on any Ameframe, and you're going to see some
variaAon of this. A market that is either in balance or it is in discovery mode. And what I mean by that, a
market that is moving sideways going through this horizontal development or a market that is moving
verAcally and in verAcal development, or it's trying to... it's in discovery mode. It's trying to find value again.
And this is how markets move. This is the same exact example we were seeing with the plane Ackets,
but markets will move sideways and there'll be some type of value established. Something will change,
which drives down price and price will conAnue to drop unAl it finds buyers and sellers that are willing to
do business, then it establishes value and then it moves again on some type of change in that percepAon.
And this is just rinse, wash, and repeat. This happens at any given Ame, any given day. And like I said, if you
just dropped in on any chart, you would find that you're dropping into either a period of horizontal
development where we've found balance or you're dropping in on some kind of a verAcal development
where the market is in price discovery mode trying to reestablish value somewhere. So that's balance and
discovery and this is really just how markets move, all markets. Now, understanding AucAon Market Theory
and how markets move. This is going to give us a good foundaAon that we can build upon. And a lot of the
training that comes next, we can just ramp right on top of this. And these are the same exact principles that
allow me just month aVer month to consistently profit from the market using these basic ideas, paired with
the informaAon that we're going to follow. Now, the informaAon that follows in the next secAon we need
to talk about is the Volume Profile Formula. Now that we've laid a liMle bit of the foundaAon, you
understand what the profile is, what the parts that make it up, and you start to understand why this
informaAon is important or why it works. It works because of AucAon Market Theory. It works because of
how markets move.
And now let's drill into some of these individual parts and look at what makes this up and specifically
what we're going to be doing with this. So what we're talking about here at the Volume Profile Formula is
it's all about finding winning trade ideas. Being able to look at the market, be able to look at real Ame

market generated informaAon and puFng together a profitable trade idea that we can then look to
execute on. So before we jump into it, there are a few major roadblocks that stop people from trading with
the profile. And I just want to address these right now, because if any of these have been stopping you in
the past, or as we go through this, if any of these flare up, I just want you to be aware of these because
these are all things that stop people that don't need to stop them.
Okay. The first thing is just mistaking the learning curve for being too complicated. This is very
common and at first glance, the profile looks like it's very difficult and it might be different than anything
you've put on your charts before. But there is a specific learning curve to this skill and to this method but
once you get over that hump, it does become very simplisAc. And it's not a complicated thing, but it is
something that is somewhat unique and as you learn something new, there's always a learning curve. But I
can promise you this, once you get over that, and once you learn how to volume profile, it becomes very
simplisAc, it becomes very effortless and it's much simpler than some type of let's say, indicator-based
strategy. Another roadblock that stops people, learning the basics, and then thinking that they know how
to profile.
Now, the basics of Volume Profile, they're very easy to learn, but this is not enough for you to earn
consistently. So some of the basics are what we've already talked about, right? Value Area High, Value Area
Low, the Point of Control, some of these elements that make up the profile. And it's very common to learn
the basics or some of the informaAon you just might hear on YouTube and then to feel like you understand
the profile and if you can't make money with that, somehow chunk it up to profiling doesn't work. There's a
lot more that we need to understand and something that's nice to know about the profile is it's not the raw
informaAon that makes this powerful. It's when we understand how to put it together and what we do with

will be prosecuted. If you are the personal owner of the Tradacc.com End User License then you may use it for your own use but not for any other purpose.
that informaAon and it's not enough just to know it. We know what it is, we need to know what to do with
it.
Okay. The next thing here, trying to fit the profile into a buy here, sell here system. At the end of the
day, most traders really want to be handed a set of rules that they can just go out and follow. Trading is not
necessarily a set of rules to follow, but it is a craV to master. Now we are going to have some very specific
rules to follow, but there is no subsAtute for your skill level in execuAng on these rules. And when it comes
to Volume Profile, we're going to learn some things. And it's a huge mistake to try and take that informaAon
and then run out and think, "Okay, we're at value area high, so this means I need to short or we're at value
area low, so this means I need to buy." The purpose of this informaAon is not so that you can fit it into an
indicator buy here, sell here strategy, and we'll be discussing some of this later.
Now, trading discreAonary with no structure or rules is another big thing that stops people from
trading with the profile. Profile trading requires you to trade with some discreAon, but most traders will
approach this with no real structure or rules. And this is a huge issue because we end up, if we're not
careful, trading from our gut, we're just trading on emoAon and we can't do that. And so paired with the
Volume Profile, we have to have some very strong principles and we'll be discussing some of these later.
Trading with fear and anxiety from a lack of structure, this is a huge thing that stops people. Feeling like
that if you don't have somebody else telling you what to do, or if you don't have some type of indicator that
you know exactly where you're pushing the buMon. If you don't have that as a crutch to lean on, being
fearful and being anxious from not having that lack of structure.
Last thing here, puFng too much importance on any one part of the process. There are many key
pieces of informaAon that we're going to learn and any one of them alone is not going to be that useful.
And this is a big air because some of the things that we're going to be talking about are powerful, very
powerful and when you learn these, they just... It seems like it's the secret thing you are missing. But what
we want to do is we want to make sure that we don't isolate one part of the profile, because this is a very
holisAc thing and we need to be looking at this from a few different ways and we need to make sure we're
incorporaAng everything. So we want to make sure that we're not puFng too much importance on any one
part of the process, because that will work in certain environments, but we want to be able to do beMer
and we want to be able to tackle a lot of market environments, so we want to be making sure that we look
at everything.
Okay, let me first introduce you to some Principles of the Profile because we talked about trading with
discreAon is something that have to do, but we can't be blind about this. We have to have some very
strong rules that we follow. So for the sake of simplicity, I want us to hone in on just a couple of these
principles. There's several that we could talk about and a lot of these are extremely powerful, but let me
just talk to you about two of these principles, so you can start to get an understanding, and then I want to

show you how we use this informaAon. So one of these principles, the first one that you can see, this is not
an exact science.
So we are not looking for flawless accuracy. This is really important because this is one of the principles
that we operate within when we trade the Volume Profile. And what this means is that if we're looking for
the 45-80 to be reached, because that is a LVN or because that's a value area high, so we're looking for
that area to hold. We don't expect that the 45-80 gets hit exactly. We're looking at the 45-80 area. And
also as we're learning this informaAon, we're not expecAng it to work 100% of the Ame. There will be
situaAons where we're looking for a value area to hold, but it gives out, it breaks. The market was changing
environment for some reason. So when we're doing this, we're not looking for this to be flawlessly
accurate. And it's important to know this ahead of Ame and to go into it with that perspecAve, because it
helps us on the execuAonal things to avoid frustraAons and to make sure that we're execuAng correctly.
Okay. Second principle here. When holding or returning to value, the market is likely to target the Point
of Control. If we get past the Point of Control, we are likely to target the other side of value. This is a very
important principle of the profile method. And when you understand what this is saying, it allows you to be
on the right sides of trades, but also to avoid making a lot of mistakes. So let me just quickly show you a
couple things here. We looked at this example earlier of a real life example, where we had a profile, we had
a micro-composite that was drawn. We had a day that opened up and then we had a trade that was taken.
So just with the two principles that we've learned, okay, one that this is not an exact science, and we're not
looking for flawless accuracy.
The other principle that if we hold or return to value, then we would expect a return to the Point of
Control. If we get past the Point of Control, we expect a return to the other side of value. So let's look at
this and how this plays out. The market opens up and as we'll see, when we talk about micro-composites,

this blue line and this blue line, this is the value area for this micro-composite. Okay, we already looked at
these intraday profiles. This profile that you're seeing here is exact same thing. It just looks a liMle different
and it's what's called a micro-composite. So we're looking at this micro-composite value area high, value
area low and we open inside a value. So we understand that if we are returning to value, or if we hold
value, then we expect a return to the Point of Control.
Here's the Point of Control for this composite. If we get past the Point of Control, we expect a return
to the other side of value. So when this market opens up in value and we push higher, we come up and we
hold value area high. That's one of the principles that we know. So if we hold this value area, this is why
when prices push up and we held value area high, we iniAate short, we fade this acAon. We look for this to
come back down, target this Point of Control. If we get past the Point of Control, we look for a return to
the other side of value. And if you can understand that this one principle that we're covering, this allows us
to as prices moving in this area, we understand that there's no longs that should be taken. As price is
holding here, we should only be looking to fade.
Now if price opens in value or is any Ame in value and we push out of that value, then we have another
principle that we need to lean on. But for this illustraAon, this principle is important to understand, and this
is universal across any products that we're trading or anything that we're doing when we hold or if we
return to value and we expect a return to the Point of Control. GeFng through that Point of Control, we
would expect a return to the other side of value. So these are the principles of the profile and if you start to
understand now when a situaAon like this happens, we understand what we should be doing as well as
what we shouldn't be doing. We understand where we should be looking to iniAate a trade, where is just a
noisy area that we need to wait for more informaAon. And when we're in a trade, we understand how we're
going to manage that, which we'll talk about later.
And we also understand where we expect that trade to go, and we can use those for very powerful
targets and for very powerful informaAon. So it's very important that we pair this with some very specific

principles. We're just going to hone in on a couple of these throughout the rest of this training, but I really
want to make sure you get an idea of what I mean by this, because now we're not trading because
somebody tells us to do something, but we have some very specific rules that we're following, and we don't
ever want to violate these. And as long as we operate within these, the method works beauAfully. Now,
there's a few different types of profiles. So I just want to introduce you to which ones we're talking about
and show you how to set these up.
So the first one is the Intraday Profile that you can see over here, and we've already covered this.
We've already kind of broke down the individual parts of this, but what I want to do right now is just show
you how this is set up. So if you go into studies on Sierra charts or any charAng package where you have
your indicators, this is going to be the volume by price study. This is what it's called. So you just want to
add this to your chart and I already have mine added here, this is the volume by price, and this is how it's
set up. If you're using Sierra charts, you can set it up exactly this way. If you're not using Sierra charts, you
can look at how this is set and then configure yours exactly like this. And if you're using trading view, what
I'll do is below this video, I'll aMach a resource that you can see exactly how to set this up in trading view as
well. It'll be a video tutorial that you can check out.
But here for the draw mode, this is how I have it selected. And if I'm talking fast, you can pause this
and highlight on any of this that you'd want to. The way I have this is mulAple profiles from start to end
Ame. And then my start Ame is set to 9:30 AM Eastern Ame and end Ame is set to 5:00 PM. So this is just
regular trading hours and these don't include any overnight sessions. That's what we're seeing here. Ticks
per volume, I have per volume bar, I have set to one, and then I'll just scroll through the rest of these
seFngs so that you can see how these are set. Most of this is preMy standard. There's not too much
customizaAon here, but I'll just scroll through a couple of these just so you can see how this is set up, okay?
So this is an Intraday Profile. Now, the main ways that I'm using this informaAon is I'm very interested
when we get down to lows and when we get down to extreme highs. These become very important to me
because what we'll see in even this example is there's a nice taper on the profile here. Where you can see
that we gradually kind of taper off as we get to this high. Here towards the end of the day, we put in a fresh
low before bouncing up. This was just the last several minutes of the day. But what we did is we have a
very blunt ugly boMom here. You can see the difference between this taper and this boMom and without
the Intraday Profile and watching how this shapes up. There's not another way for me to see this kind of
informaAon.
Now, what I'm looking for here is as this tapers, that to me is a good or very solid extreme. This is a
very ugly extreme, this blunt type of formaAons, I expect these to get broken. Not to say that if it tapers, I
don't expect anything else above that because we can taper as we go. But specifically, when we see these
blunt type of boMoms, I expect that that's going to have more to the downside and that this area's going to

get revisited. So that's one of the ways I'm using the Intraday Profile is as the day shapes up, I'm paying
close aMenAon to how these extremes are forming. Another way that I'm using the Intraday Profile is the
value areas, I'm using these to create the micro-composite profiles, which we're going to talk about in a
liMle bit. Now, one thing that's important is as we're talking about these individual profiles, it's very
important not to take something that was meant for, let's say composite and try to apply that to the
Intraday Profile.
It's not going to work. And a lot of Ames when I'm explaining this concept to people, I'll talk through it
and then they'll ask me to explain more. They'll say, "Can you say more about this type of a profile?" And
the idea is not to make it more complicated, these are the ways that I'm using it. And outside of that, you're
probably using this in a way that it doesn't need to be used. So an example, we're geFng ready to look at
high and low volume nodes. You don't want to obsess about high and low volume nodes on the Intraday
Profile. Very powerful on the composite, not that relevant on the intraday, unless we have a double
distribuAon profile or in certain unique circumstances. So I just want to preface that because it's very
common to kind of go out half cocked with this informaAon and to use it incorrectly, and then to walk away
with some type of a trading frustraAon that just... it doesn't have to be there on any case.
Okay. The next thing type of profile we're going to talk about is the Composite Profile. Now, what a
Composite Profile, this is going to be a very zoomed out picture of the market that includes a lot of weeks,
a lot of months and this is what we're looking at right here. This profile on the right-hand side of the screen
is a composite. And if I zoom this back a liMle bit to just kind of show you what kind of Ameframe this is
bringing in. Each one of these candles is a full day on a full day of acAon. And so this is bringing in months
and months of data here. This is where the Composite Profile starts and then this is where it ends. Now a
Composite Profile, what I'm using this for are the high and low volume areas.
So I draw them on my chart like this. I'm very zoomed out right now, so this looks very messy, but
when we drill this in what we're just looking at are these individual high and low volume nodes. These are
very, very nice levels to understand. So a quick word about how high and low volume nodes. When we're
looking at a high-volume node, we can expect that this is a popular price. These are prices where the
market is doing a lot of business. And what we would expect is that price returns to these areas, so they
make amazing targets. Now, we would also expect that when price reaches a high volume node, we would
expect that it balances there and that we don't move away from these areas very quickly. So using high-
volume nodes as targets is very powerful. They can be tough to try and use as entries because-
They can be tough to try and use as entries, because likely, if you enter when we reach a high volume
node, then you're going to spend some Ame siFng through some chop because these prices are very
popular. So if we return to these areas, we expect that we're probably going to spend some Ame there and
a lot of trading is going to happen. Now low volume nodes, these areas that are very indented on the

profile, these are called LVNs or low volume nodes, and it's the exact opposite of these high volume. This is
where the market is doing very liMle business and these are prices that the market is not necessarily liking.
They're not very popular. So what we would expect, is that when we approach these LVNs, the market
spends very liMle Ame there. We would expect that the market reacts and either holds these levels and
push away, or it just passes through these levels quickly.
And so what LVNs are very nice for are levels for support and resistance. They make incredible entries
and they also make incredible targets. So LVNs are very powerful and HVNs are very powerful. I get these
levels off of my composite profile. This is the only place that I really look to get high and low volume nodes.
And of all the use cases for a composite profile, this is the primary way that I'm using it. I'm not as
concerned about the value area. I'm mostly concerned about these high and low volume nodes. Now the
way that I draw this is I use a very zoomed out Ameframe. So this is a daily chart. I don't trade off of this. I
don't get setups off of this. This is just for analysis and for geFng these key levels. So what I'll do is I start
with a daily Ameframe and then I draw a profile on it.
So if you were to want to do this, you have to have charAng capabiliAes where you can start and stop a
profile wherever you want. Now in order to start this, we just looked at the entry day profile where it
started at 9:30 and it ended at 5:00 PM. What this is doing is I'm starAng this at some type of a significant
low, or some type of a significant high. So, as we look through this, you can see all of these lows that are
put in here, I would look at any one of these as just a significant low. These are significant dips that we've
had and any one of these significant lows or any one of these significant highs, the same exact way would
be a fine place to start one of these composite profiles. The main thing is you want to make sure that
where price is currently trading, you are including everything.
So we could say that this was a significant low, but we don't want to start the composite profile here
because price is trading here. And if we look to the leV, where price is trading, there's a lot of informaAon
right here that we want to include. So by starAng the profile here, everything that is included in price,
where price is, every price where we are trading is that we've been before, is being included here. So we
don't want to change to this profile very oVen so I don't want to be adjusAng this a lot. So I just bring it
back far enough to where I don't need to adjust this every day, and if I ever need to adjust this, price is
doing something really, really crazy, right? Now, as far as where it ends, it really doesn't have an end. This
composite profile is set to end right here, and what'll happen is I'll just keep dragging this out and making it
go farther and farther. So it has several weeks before it'll reach its max, and then I'll just keep dragging it
out.
So every Ame new informaAon gets ploMed, it just gets added to the composite profile. So there really
is no end to this. It just always keeps going. It has a starAng place, but no ending. Everything that comes in
just gets added to it. And there's even a seFng on the Sierra Charts where you can just have it start and

then have it not ever end. And I just have mine set manually, that's just the way that I've been doing it, but
just... I don't adjust it very oVen at all.
So this is a composite profile. Now the way that I do this... I'm going to zoom this in a liMle bit just so
it's not so noisy... There is a bit of sophisAcaAon to drawing these levels. And what I'll do is every day I just
go through and update these because what'll happen is, depending on where we're trading, like this area
right in here, you can see there's three different LVNs right here. What will probably happen is, if we get
back up to this area and start trading around here, some of this is going to get filled in and what we'll
probably see is more than likely one defined LVN just holding out, like we have here. This, at one point,
probably looked something like this, and then the area filled in and now we have one specific LVN that just
holds true there.
And so every day I'll just make sure that these are updated. And what I'll do is I just draw these with a
line tool. So this is just a horizontal line tool inside of Sierra that I just have set up a specific way so that it's
red. It has this style and it's a liMle bit thicker than normal and I have it labeled as an LVN, and I'll just draw
these on any LVNs. And then I do the same exact thing with green HVN signs, and I'll draw those on the
same exact place. So I manually put these in these areas and I'll just make sure that around where we're
trading, specifically, that these levels are marked off so that I know where they are. As far as where you
should be puFng these LVNs and HVNs, there's a liMle bit of an art to this, but what you want to do is the
purpose of this is not to just put a mark on every single liMle indent and every single liMle protrusion.
Err on the side of doing too few of these unAl you get the hang of it and then you can start adding
more, but you don't want to be just puFng lines all over your chart. And so, if you have to quesAon
whether or not that should be an LVN or an HVN, potenAally just leave it off. And then as you do this more,
you'll get a liMle bit beMer skill, and you'll start to understand what are more important, which LVNs and
HVNs are things that you want to take note of and which ones aren't.
And what I would just look for is very defined areas. So this is a liMle divot right here, but I'm not
worried about this for an LVN. I'm not really worried about this for an LVN. Definitely worried about this
for an LVN, right? Same thing up in here. This is a liMle divot, but I'm not worried about this. These three
areas, I'm expecAng probably two of these to get filled in at least, at least one, but for right now, these
three I'll have marked off as LVNs. So that gives you a liMle bit of a guide, but one of the main things would
be the purpose of this is not just to go crazy and fill your charts with all sorts of informaAon.
All right. And then this leads us to a micro-composite profile. We just covered intraday. We looked at
composite, which is where we include a lot of data and then we also have a micro-composite. Now a micro-
composite is where we bring in two or more days of a profile. So anyAme that we have two or more days
that we bring together, that is an... Excuse me... that is a composite profile. So I want to show you how we
do this and what we set these up as and how we use this informaAon because micro-composites are very,

very powerful. So looking at this chart, it's a liMle zoomed out, but this is just a 15 minute chart and we're
looking at several different days. So what we have is a market that has been preMy choppy, bouncing
around and then we've been moving up, going in this verAcal development, price discovery mode to the
upside. And then we have a market that started to balance out and then we start to break down again.
Now when it comes to micro-composites, this is really helping us understand where value has been
established.
And as a profiler, somebody who's using the volume profile, this is the main thing that we want to
understand. We want to be able to look into these value areas. And so for a micro-composite, what we
want to do is there's two ways I'll look at drawing this. I'll draw a micro-composite when we have a series of
days where price just doesn't go anywhere. We might have some days where the price is a liMle bit
sporadic, but if we have three or four days where price hasn't really moved, then I'll include those around a
micro-composite. That gets a liMle bit more discreAonary. The second way that I'll draw micro-composites
is easier to understand, and this is based on intraday value areas. So if we have a day and then the
following day has overlap between the value areas, I'll draw a micro-composite.
Now that overlap I'm just looking for is not an exact number. This is something that's a liMle bit of a
skill, but it's not difficult. What I'll be looking for is just the majority. So if there's a good 50% or more
overlap, then I'll include it. If there's less than 50%, I just won't. So let's talk about drawing micro-
composites and just look at this chart. So here we have a couple of days the market was up, we dropped
down and then we popped up. And during this period of imbalance, things were preMy rocky.
We had some wide ranging days over a hundred points. Here's value area. There's value area. Here's
value area. There's no overlap. So I'm not really concerned about drawing a micro-composite around any of
this. Price conAnues to move up. So between this day down here, and this day, there's no overlap, and in
these periods there's no micro-composite to draw. The purpose of a micro-composite is not always to draw
one. We only want to draw one when we are in periods of balance or verAcal development. And this is how
we idenAfy this.
So here is a day. The following day there's really nice overlap here. Very balanced. So as this begins,
what I'll do is draw a micro-composite. And the way that I'll do that is I'll use a tool that is set up on Sierra
Charts. This is just the volume profile tool. So if you go into the tool seFngs, draw volume profile, and I
have this set up as a shortcut on my toolbar because I use this feature quite a bit. But if we were to look at
this, the seFngs, I was going to show you the breakdown of this. So this is how the draw mode is set up,
volume profiles. It's set up from Start-Date-Time to End-Date-Time. This is what allows me to be able to
just start it and stop it anywhere that I'd like. And then you can see just the rest of this informaAon here.
If you'd like to just see exactly how I have mine set up, there's a few pages of it. You can pause this to
get the exact informaAon there. And then here's how I have it graphically set up. The main big difference is

the coloring of this and the way that I get that heat map look is on the main seFngs. There's a couple
features here. One is to color code volume bar based on percentage. I have that checked to yes. That's
what gives me this. And then also highlight value area high and low only. If we didn't only do the high and
the low, then this whole value area gets grayed out.
And since I just want the whole heat map look, I just want the high and low to be highlighted. And then
in the sub-graphs, that value area high and low, the outline, I have it set up to our profile method colors,
and it's a liMle bit thicker than normal. It's set to four. But that's just how I have it set up and that's how I'll
draw these. And so if you just look at the next day, once we have the micro-composite started, I'm looking
at the micro-composite value area to understand if I want to bring in the next day. So in this case, without
bringing it in yet, here's value area high, here's value area low. There's a ton of overlap there, no quesAon.
Just bring that in. Here we have another day where this is value area high, here's value area low. There's a
good amount of overlap.
This is probably teetering on that close to 50%, but that's plenty of overlap, so we bring that day in.
The next day, a similar thing. Some good overlap, probably about that 50% mark or so, but that's good. I'll
bring that right in. The following day we push away from balance and we drop down. Here's value area.
Here's the micro-composite value area. This day does not get included. This micro-composite is now
completed and it's now done. So this is how I'm drawing these. This is the easiest way to understand it. The
other way is a liMle bit more of discreAon, but whenever we have just several days and the market goes
nowhere, I'll draw a micro-composite and then I also draw a micro-composite when we have these
overlapping value areas.
And then once we push away, the value area doesn't get extended. This point of...This... Excuse me...
micro-composite is now completed and it's done. And what we'll see, drawing these micro-composites, this
helps us understand where that value area is, and what this allows us to do, even with just that one
principle that we talked about of the profile, allowing us to understand that as we hold value, we should be
looking for us to return to the other side, aVer the point of control. And then if we break away from value,
we now understand that the market is entering a period of verAcal development. We've been in balance,
we've been in chop, we've marked this the whole way through, and in a situaAon like this, where we
understand where this value area is, we try to push away from value. Instead of conAnuing, we open up and
we come right back to this value area. As price accepts and returns to value, we expect a return to the
point of control, geFng past the point of control we expect to return to the other side of value.
And again, we're not looking for these to touch to the Ack and then stop. We did actually touch to the
Ack, but then we broke through it a liMle bit, came back, started holding it, starAng or working our way
back up. Another important thing about this, as well, is we're only including the day aVer it's already been

completed. So when I decide whether or not to put this day inside of this day, I wait All this day's over and
then I include it in aVer that. So that would be an important part to understand as well.
So those are the three different types of profiles that we'll be using, or that are out there... Intraday,
composite profiles and micro composite profiles. The intraday profiles we have some specific things we're
looking for there, especially around the highs and the lows, how those are developing. We also want to use
those value areas to build our micro-composite. The composite profiles we really emphasize the high and
low volume nodes. These are incredible levels to target. These are incredible levels for support and
resistance. Then we have the micro-composite, which really helps us interpret the story, and helps us
understand what that value is doing. And when we go through these periods of balance, we understand
when we need to be looking to fade, to either go short or long at the extreme.
So if the market's moving up, we want to fade it and hit a short, or if we're starAng to break out of that
balance, we know we need to be careful and we don't want to be fading that acAon anymore. Very
powerful to have that insight of understanding that as the market moves, I need to be waiAng, or to
understand that this is holding in value and I know exactly where I'm looking to do business. I know what
I'm looking for this market to do, where I'm targeAng. All of that comes from using the profiles.
Now here's a few things about micro-composites. This is the main thing that we want to focus on. I just
showed you how to draw those. I showed you what went into them. I actually should have gone through
this slide first, because I basically covered all of these points already without showing them to you, but two
or more intraday profiles combined, that's what creates a micro-composite. As soon as we start combining
these individual days, we only draw micro-composites when value is being established. So when price is
moving or discovering, we're not including that data, we're just building micro-composites when we're in
balance. Those are the two ways that we establish micro-composites, which we've already covered, and I've
shown you how to do that. And there's a couple other points. The last point here, specifically, that this is
not an exact science, there is an art to drawing micro-composites, but you will develop this skill as you
pracAce.
And what'll happen is, when I'm siFng here having fleshed out a lot of this informaAon and being very
well executed, and even showing you a preMy simple example, it's very easy to look at this and get it. But
when you're just looking at a raw chart that doesn't start right here and stop right here, where I'm drawing
your aMenAon to something, and I'm not talking you through it, when it's just you and you're just looking at
candles everywhere, it can be a liMle confusing on what exactly you should be doing or where exactly you
should be looking. And so what you can do is just pracAce and as you pracAce, you're going to be geFng
beMer and you're going to be geFng beMer and you'll beMer understand what exactly to be doing.
So we're going to look at some examples. We've already gone through the examples I wanted to show
you were just this, when we're not drawing them, when we are drawing them. And like I said, I got a liMle

bit ahead of myself with the slides, but we'll move on right from here. What we've been talking about is this
new way of trading. So we're talking about some of the discreAonary elements. We talked about pairing
that with some very strong principles. We just looked at the volume profile. And the next thing I want to
talk to you about is VWAP, then we're going to be looking at trigger levels. So when we're talking about
VWAP, I'm using this two ways, and really VWAP is an incredibly important level and it's an incredibly
important tool to be looking at. What VWAP is is it's the volume weighted average price. So it's very similar
to the point of control, if you remember when we were talking about that. The point of control is the one
price where we've traded the most, the most popular price. VWAP is the average price.
So if you're looking at, let's say, a daily range, the point of control is of all the prices we traded, the one
price where we traded the most. VWAP is of all the prices we've traded, what is the average price people
are paying? Now VWAP is incredibly important because it is watched by every trader, every insAtuAon,
every big player has their eye on VWAP, and so it ends up being a very self-fulfilling prophecy. And we end
up, when certain extremes of value are holding of the VWAP, we end up respecAng these levels incredibly
well. And if you're not watching VWAP, or if you haven't incorporated this into your trading, it's an
incredibly powerful level to keep your eye on. Now I use VWAP two ways.
I use it just as the daily VWAP and I use it as the 24 hour VWAP. The 24 hour VWAP is by far the most
powerful way to use this. And it gets a liMle bit more complicated, and there's a liMle bit more
sophisAcaAon with how we use that informaAon and also how we set that up. And if you're going out half-
cocked with this, it's incredibly powerful, but it's going to create a lot of frustraAons if you're not using it
right. When we're looking at the daily VWAP, this is probably exactly what you are... I'll say... the most
familiar with. And this is just the thin pink line that is running through the chart. And you'll see this is the
point of control. And then this is VWAP.

Now VWAP is on preMy much all of my charts. It's a level that I keep my eyes on. This is set up just to
go throughout the day and the main way that I'm using VWAP, and this is just very standard right here, this
is just set to be a one day VWAP. It'll reset every day. And there's no customizaAon to this. So if you have
access to VWAP you'll be doing the same thing here. So puFng VWAP on your chart, if we are in a period
of being out of balance, especially, what I'll be using VWAP for is a really nice understanding of which
direcAon I should be looking if I'm expecAng any type of direcAonal acAon. So for instance, this day opens
up, we put in our first hours worth of range. So we have the high. We have the low. I'm expecAng, at this
point, that the range gets extended.
And so, as we're holding onto these lower prices, we might be looking for this to break to a low side,
but breaking above VWAP and holding VWAP is a very bad sign if I was looking for shorts. It's a very good
sign if I'm looking for the longs, and if I'm not looking for anything, this is going to start skewing me
towards looking towards the long side. And in this exact example I'm talking about, we have good reason to
expect that the range gets extended one way or the other. So which way does this range get extended?
PotenAally low. We break above VWAP. We start holding VWAP. It's a very bad sign for the longs... Excuse
me... the shorts. We eventually extend that range out slightly.
Now, whenever I'm expecAng direcAonal acAon, VWAP becomes very important because if I'm
expecAng this to move lower and we hold above VWAP, that's a very bad sign. If I'm looking to get long and
we set something up like this and hold VWAP, this is a very valid level for me to trade off of and to look to
get in the direcAon that I'm expecAng the market to go. Now with this VWAP, if the market is in periods of
balance, we'll tend to be very choppy around VWAP.
It's sAll important to know where it is, but it might not be the best level to trade off of when we're in a
slow balancing out range. This day was fairly balanced, but you can't see on the chart, the previous day we
dropped 80 points. It was a very down trending day, and all of this was conAnuing that acAon to the
downside. So this is a day on the S&P where we went over 50 points worth of range, which is preMy large,
and overall the market was preMy out of balance and so we had a lot of these opAons to get direcAonal
here. And the direcAonal acAon can be very temporary.
This doesn't only have to be valid on trending type of days where the market really goes one direcAon,
even in a situaAon like this, where there might be something temporarily, I'm just looking for a direcAonal
move, VWAP can be a very powerful level to trade off of and it can be very good for understanding
something like this. We come down. We break VWAP and we start holding underneath it. Very bad sign. If
I'm looking for longs, I'd be looking to take that trade off and to probably reposiAon myself.
So VWAP's very important. There's a few other things that we would really dive into about this, but just
for sake of introducing this and keeping it a liMle bit high level, VWAP is massively important. You got to be
looking at this. Everybody whose anybody has their eye on VWAP and it can be a very powerful tool,

especially when you're expecAng a direcAonal move, to understand which way you should be looking. And
it can be a very good level to trade directly off of. The caveat being that if we're very slow acAon, or if
we've gone through several days where the market is just very balanced, we'll tend to just chop around
VWAP a lot more.
So you'd want to be careful, at that point, trading against it, or using it as a trade entry. Let me talk to
you now about trigger levels, and we'll just keep this moving very quickly, because we have sAll quite a bit
of informaAon to cover. Now talking about trigger levels, these are levels that we are looking to pull the
trigger, and this just means that we want to do business and we want to enter the market. So it's not
enough just to understand that we have a trade idea or that something is shaping up, we also need to be
able to know where are we expecAng to enter the market? Where are we expecAng to actually pull the
trigger? And for this we use trigger levels.
And what you'll understand is, as we're puFng this together, we'll use a lot of this informaAon in
coming up with our trade ideas, doing our analysis, and then drilling that in to where we're specifically
going to execute on these ideas. And this is what trigger levels... And just the way I think about it is when a
trade's shaping up, I pull the trigger when I want to enter, and for that to pull the trigger, I need to be using
a trigger level. So how exactly do we do draw trigger levels? Let me just jump into the charts and I'll show
you how exactly just I put these on the actual chart. So let me just pull up a chart and I'm going to show
you how we draw these.
So for drawing trigger levels, this is a 15 minute Ameframe, and this is the chart that I use for puFng
these trigger levels on. And what I'll do is I use the tool... I have this book mapped as a shortcut... but what
I'll use is just this extended rectangle tool. So if you go into the tools and you just click the extended
rectangle, that'll give you this opAon here. And the way I have this set up is... I have it where it's showing
me the price labels, so when I look at these levels I know exactly where the price is. I don't have to try to
figure that out. I have it to draw a midline. So here's the high and the low of this level, here's the midline
and then I have it to double extend so that it goes this way, and it goes this way across my charts.
And then the rest of these are just preferenAal. I have it set to our volume profile method colors, and
just staying on point there. Now what I'll do with these levels is I'll set this to, as you can see here, this is
two points. On the S&P 500, trading it, this is how... I'll set this trigger level to about two points. And
depending on what product you're trading you might need to make these trigger levels larger or smaller,
and the way you would judge that is how much your product is moving. If you're trading a product that
moves very quick, if it was something like the NQ or certain, I'm sure, foreign currencies or individual
names of stocks, whatever, we would want to make this larger. And then if you were trading something that
moved very slowly and didn't cover that much range, and wasn't very volaAle, then you could make this
about this size, or you could make it even smaller.

So what I'll do, when I'm drawing a trigger level, is I'll just have these on. And what's nice about this is if
there's a specific level that is important and that I want to use as a target, or I want to trade against...
Remember that we're not looking for flawless accuracy, one of our principles... and so what a trigger level
does is this gives me an area that I'm looking to trade. So if I'm expecAng, for whatever reason, that, let's
say the 46, 32, 25 is my trigger level, that's the level I'm interested in, I'll put this trigger level around it, the
midline will be right on it and then I'll have a point on either side. That gives me a liMle bit of a buffer. And
then what I'll do is, every single day I'll come in, and I'll just adjust these.
So I'll take it and I'll copy and I'll move the drawing to include any trigger levels that I want to be
interested in. So if there's an area that interests me, that I want to put some aMenAon on, I'll just do that.
And once it's on my chart, I can just copy and move it. I can just move it and then I can just delete it if I
want, but I always make sure that there's... I never delete all the trigger levels off because I just keep
adjusAng them every day. So every day when I'm doing my analysis I come in and I draw fresh trigger levels
because every day the areas that I'm interested in will probably be changing. A lot of Ames the levels will
stay exactly the same and I won't touch them, but there's usually one I'll take off, one I'll add on, something
that I'll adjust a liMle bit. And that's the process of how I'm drawing these trigger levels.
Now let me show you some examples of some good trigger levels and these are some things that you
can start ploFng today and these would be some very nice levels to keep your eye on. So here would be
some examples of levels that I would be interested in trading on. We have value area high and low. This
could be intraday. This could be on the micro-composite. Intraday only when there's balance. We have
previous high and low of day. Not always, but a lot of Ames there'll be something significant about that I
want to hone in on. TradiAonal levels of support and resistance are great. Just areas that the market has
goMen to and you can see that we've just hit this area four Ames in the previous session, and we just

couldn't break it. We just kept hiFng resistance there. That's an important level that I'm going to want to
keep my eye on.
Levels where outsized moves started, so if you're looking at your charts and we just have an area
where the market just exploded, where that explosion started, I want to be very interested in that level so
that if we ever come back there, I want to know how we react again. As we've already talked about, VWAP
can be a great level to trade off of, iniAal balance high and low, the developing days value area is very nice.
The current days, high or low, not just the previous, can be very nice. The open is an extremely powerful
level that I'll trade off of and use as a trigger level or a target, frequently.
And this is really not an exhausAve list, but I wanted to give you several opAons here so that you could
start to understand these are the type of things where I'm coming in and I'm doing my analysis, I'm looking
at all of this stuff, and there's a lot of these levels that I'll be marking off. And it's all a liMle bit situaAonal
because, as we're looking at our charts, there might be a day where the previous high or low of day is just
irrelevant. It doesn't come into play at all. It's not important. And then there might be a day where the
previous high or low is very focal and so our ability to understand and to use this as a skill level is going to
really determine how we know where to put our aMenAon. It's not something I can just specifically tell you
because it's just dynamic and depending on what the context is, and depending on what the day is, it'll
change. SomeAmes the open is just going to be such an important level and the trade off of the day is
going to be, we broke through the open, we came back, we couldn't get back above the open. And if you
would've shorted at the open, you could've wrote it down and that was the best spot to enter all day long.
Other Ames, the open we might pretend like it's not even there because the market just moves away and
we never revisit it. So these are things that you'll just have to the take and the more that you do this, the
more you implement these things, the beMer your skill set's going to be.

Now, looking at the charts, let's just kind of jump back into this and see how all of this stuff fits
together, okay? What we're looking at right now is a market that has been in balance. We moved out of this
balance and then we had another kind of day and a half here where we balanced out. The market went
absolutely nuts up a 100 points just flushing through. We opened in a gap and then just tanked. So this is
some very unseMling acAon, acAon where the market is being very difficult to read, the market's being very
sporadic. But what we have here are a few things. We have a market that is geFng ready to open up right
here. So we're going to be in a gap. This was the previous day, and we have a gap that we're geFng ready
to open in.
We have the value area high, we have value area low from this micro-composite underneath us. We
also have a micro-composite above us that the market just absolutely went crazy around and the market's
geFng ready to open up right here, okay? Now, with this informaAon, we also have some trigger levels that
are drawn. I would consider this a trigger level because this is going to be a gap zone, value area high, value
area low. We have the low of this day, I have a trigger level around because this is important. We've just
spent a lot of Ame running up and then we balanced out then we dropped. Once we dropped, instead of
conAnuing this acAon, we turned very aggressively. And so if we were to come back down and to take back
this area here and conAnue it, that would be very important to me. So I have this low of day as a trigger
level. Below that there's something beyond this that we can't see. As far as above us goes, there's a few
things.
This trigger level, which is just basically the extreme of this whole balanced area, not the value area
low, but the actual extreme. It also lines up really nicely with the high of day, just a liMle bit off of this high
of day. It's also an area that we've hit some resistance and then when we passed through it, we really
passed through it. So I'm just interested to see if we get back to this level, how we react. I'll be interested in
the previous close. Here's another trigger level, which is in line with just a level for support and resistance.
This is a place where in the past, we've had a large outsize moved that started here. One of the last Ames
we were in this area, you can see the size of all these candles and then a big move happened right there.
This is also a spot that we just busted through and we held it for support and then most recently we
held it as a resistance. So this is kind of just a tradiAonal support and resistance level. And then above that,
we have this high of day, which is also in line I think with another high of day back here, but also almost in
line with this high of day. And this will just be to me an important place because we had run up so hard and
we took this back so hard. If we come back through and revisit this high again, I'm going to be very
interested in if we push through that or not. So there's just some of the mindset or some of the thought
process in some of these trigger levels. We know that the market's geFng ready to open up here.
What's the idea? What would the trade idea be? So there's a couple ways that this is going to fit
together. Let's just make sure that we understand the principles of the profile, because we have to have

those structure. We have to have that framework that we operate with inside. So we understand that if we
open here, we've returned to value. So if we hold this value area high, I'm going to expect that the market
drops down, revisits the point of control and then if we push through that point of control, we revisit the
other side of value. That's what I would be looking for. Then if we are able to push outside of this value
area, returning to value, but not holding it. I would expect and this goes a principle that we didn't talk
about, but I would expect that we conAnue you in this direcAon.
So in this case, it would be long and we have a nice gap close right here. So if we can't hold down
value, I'll expect that we close this gap and then I'll be looking for some of these other trigger levels as
extended targets. So if we open up, I don't really care what happens. The purpose of this is not for me to be
right, but it's to understand that if we open up and we hold value, I'm going to be looking short because the
most likely thing to happen is that we return to this point of control and we return to the other side of
value. This is what the method is telling us. This is a method that has edge. This is a method that works, and
this is what we want to align ourselves with. If the market opens and we just decide to go crazy and start
moving higher, then I know what I'm going to do as well. It's different. I'm not going to look to short in that
example. I'm going to look for this gap to get filled in some of these extended targets.
So hopefully that's starAng to make sense where we're taking these individual pieces. We're looking at
some discreAonary elements. We have some very strong principles that come into play. We're using the
volume profile. We're using trigger levels. We didn't really say anything about VWAP in here. There's some
elements of this that we could definitely add in that we should be looking at, but in this seFng and for this
class, we're limiAng some of the informaAon just so it can be palatable. And so just with the elements that
we've talked about, can you see how this is turned into a couple trade ideas? A trade idea for if this value
area holds and a trade idea for if we break out of this value area. Now, as the market shapes up, this is a
very drilled in acAon and these were two trades that were taken.
So here's this value area high at the 46-28-75, 46-28-75. This is where value area high is. So what
we're doing is we're just drilling into this acAon on a trigger chart. Now, the market opened up, we chopped
around this value area a liMle bit, and then we revisited the open before really breaking down. We went on
a very direcAonal move. We chopped around for a liMle bit. We came right down to an LVN, held to this
and then moved higher. We talked about these being beauAful levels for support and resistance and you
can see how we came down and made this real support. We didn't spend a lot of Ame here, but we just
touched it and it held as support and we moved away. We also have an HVN at the 46-10, and you can see
when we failed from the open, we came right down to this HVN, which is a popular price that we already
knew was popular and what did we do?
We didn't just touch it and move away. We rotated around and we spent a lot of Ame there. We talked
about this already. So we get to see this just as it shapes up. But these HVNs, how we react here, these

LVNs, how we react there. Now, using this as potenAal support or resistance, this wasn't a trade that I took
long because we had already held value area and I was expecAng a return to the other side of value
because we had already reached the point of control. We had already broken through it. So as this went on
this insane run through the high side, we came back to test the open. So we tested the open and as we
pushed and held, I entered in on a short. Now this short rotated down just a couple of Acks and then we
started to push through.
As we pushed through, I bailed on the trade because I wanted to see this open was the level I was
trading against. We talked about this, this is where the market opened. The open is a very valid trigger level
for me and this is a trigger level that I don't know where exactly where it's going to be ahead of Ame but I
know that when it comes into play, I want to know where it's at and so this gets marked on my charts
automaAcally. So we test the open, we hold it, the trade starts working, and then we start flush... We go to
flush higher. We go to pop higher. As it happens, I take the trade off and then the trade chops around a
liMle bit more above the open. Once this happens, I can see that this wasn't a real move to the upside.
We didn't break out of value. We weren't heading up, but that's what I was afraid of. We held these
levels very well to the downside. We had covered a lot of ground, very deep pullback and then the last kind
of level I was looking to hold, we started to break through that. This was a good reason to be worried,
because if we would've busted through the open and done a move like this and just pushed right outside of
this value area, that would've been a very concerning thing where I would not want to be holding shorts
and I would be taking a lot of heat at that point. So I bail on the trade. We come back down and start
dropping. So I put the trade back on at just a slightly worse price. Same exact thing, if this would've popped
again, I would've taken the trade off again.
As a trade starts working, I miAgate some of the risk. We have a beauAful drop as that weakness
happens, and we have that strength to the downside, I secure some more profit. Then we go through, once
again, a period of chopping around this HVN. We push down and then we hold this LVN again. As we move
with some real strength off of that LVN, I get another part of this posiAon off, because I'm very worried at
this point that something like this would happen again. So trying to give this room to break as soon as that
starts moving, I take some more off. We pop through this HVN a liMle bit, we tag once again this LVN, and I
can see that this acAon is starAng to consolidate. So looking for this consolidaAon that's happening here,
the narrowing down that we're doing, and then we finally break through this LVN aVer holding it so nicely,
we break through it.
And once again, with these LVNs, we don't expect much chop around these levels. We tested it a lot of
Ames, which is fairly rare to see this happen, but once we actually pushed through it, we really pushed
through it and then we took us down to the other side of value area. Now, inside of this example, we're
seeing several things play out, the use of trigger levels, the use of our trade ideas and understanding what

this is likely to do. If this was to push back outside of value, we would've completely changed the idea, we'd
no longer be looking for shorts. If as this broke through, it didn't just test the value area low. It actually
ended up going quite a bit lower than that even, and this is sAll where the trade ended. It almost was the
perfect top of this, just because of where that trigger level was and there wasn't much in between.
Wasn't just perfect top to perfect boMom. There was a liMle bit of an issue here, and there was quite a
bit more to the downside that disconAnued to drop, but not looking for an exact science, not looking for
flawless accuracy captured well more than the meat of the move and this is a fairly clean example. A lot of
trades don't work out this perfectly at all, but just for the sake of pulling out an example that worked out
very well, and that had some of the key elements to it, that we've been talking through. All of that starAng
with a trade idea, so that as the market opens and we start moving around, I sAll understand what I'm
looking for and I sAll understand what's most likely to happen next and unAl something changes, I'm just
looking to trade and to get that idea off.
Now, when we're talking about trading ideas here, the biggest factor that stops traders from using the
profile and creaAng trade ideas is not how difficult it is to create trade ideas, it's how difficult they think it
is. And as we talked about, this isn't difficult, but there is a learning curve to it. There's a few different
elements and each of these elements have to be somewhat prioriAzed as to what is the most important
right now, given the context that I'm seeing. What this requires you to do is to have some skill. This isn't
something you just learn once, and then you get it, but you can learn these things and then the more you
use them, the beMer you get and then it starts to become really effortless. You can just pull up in a chart,
you can put together the story of what is going on. You can understand what you need to be looking for
and if the market does this, this is what you're going to do. If the market does this, this is what you're going
to do and it really makes trading just a beauAful experience.
Now, narrowing your focus is the key to consistency and profiAng from the market. Air on the side of
trading too less, if I can say it like that. And what I just want to say is just taking kind of a moment here to
acknowledge, there is a lot of informaAon. And when we're talking about maybe trigger levels, or when
we're talking about micro-composites, the thing we don't want to do is just fill our chart with analysis and
we don't want to... If we're not careful, everything becomes important informaAon. So we want to disAll
this stuff down and as we're learning it, as you're going through and building up some skill here. Air on the
side of doing too liMle and trading too less, because you're going to just do the things that you know beMer
and beMer.
You can start making it a liMle bit more sophisAcated, and you're going to save yourself a lot of trading
frustraAons, because one of the biggest reasons people stop trading is they just have the wrong
expectaAons. They expect that they're going to come into the market, learns about some indicators and
then make a million dollars. And so when that doesn't happen in the first several weeks or the first couple

months, they just burnout and then they stop trading or they just give up. But if you can curb your
expectaAons and understand that this is something that you have to build and something you have to get
good at. What you want out of trading is possible, but it's probably not going to happen in a Ameline you
think that it's going to happen in. Okay. So we just talked about the Volume Profile Formula. We looked at a
lot of informaAon there, a lot of different elements.
We looked at seFng up profiles, which ones do we use. Some high level things about how we're using
that informaAon and what that's allowing us to do is really put together trade ideas. The next thing that we
have to do is to execute on those ideas because it's not enough to be good at analysis. A lot of traders are
very good at analysis, but they're not profitable because they're not good at actually trading. And so what I
want to walk you through right now is the next level trade management and when it comes to trade
management, we just want to have some very set processes in place that we follow. What we don't want to
ever have happen is a trade idea to surface. And then in the heat of the moment, when our emoAons are
going crazy, we're trying to think about what we're going to do. Where exactly we're entering, how much
we're going to enter with.
We don't want to be thinking about where we're going to be taking that trade off and should I take it
off now? Those type of acAons and thoughts don't need to enter our mind. The way we combat this is by
having a set process that we follow and that's what I want to walk you through right now. So let's talk
about trade management. You have your trade ideas. You know which trigger levels, where you want to
enter the market. Now let's talk about some management. The management needs to include a strategy for
just how you go about this. Needs to include how you're entering the market, how you're exiAng the
market and how you're controlling your risk. So the way I like to think about this, and we're just going to

take this one piece at a Ame. Let's start off with a strategy. My strategy for entering and the way I would
suggest that you trade as well, at least give this a try is all in/scale out.
So the other ways that you could do this would be going all in/all out, where you enter a trade with a
certain amount of size, and then you just exit for a win or you exit for a loss with that same amount of size,
all in/all out. Some people scale in where they enter a trade a liMle bit more, they put more on maybe as it's
working against them. And then if the trade starts working in their favor, they just go all out, scale in/all
out. The way that I'm doing this and my strategy is all in/scale out. So if I'm entering with a certain amount
of size, let's just say, I'm trading the S&P. I have three contracts that I'm puFng on. I'm entering all three
contracts at once and then as the trade is working, I'm scaling out in a very specific way to take profits.
Now, the way that I'll take my scale outs, we're going to talk about when we reach this exit secAon
right here. But the main thing is to understand, and really have clarity that when you have a trade seFng
up, you don't want to be thinking about what should I do here? You need to know. So the actual strategy
you're using isn't the most important thing. The most important thing is that it's something that is
sustainable and it's something that you just sAck with. So for me, I go all in and then I scale out. Now, as far
as when I'm taking entries, there's only two things that I'm looking to do here. I'm either joining the acAon
or I'm fading it. We talked a lot today about fading the market. So when balance is established, when we're
holding or returning to those value areas, these are Ames when we want to be fading the market.
And really whenever the market's in value, I'm looking to do some type of a fade play. If the market is
not in value and we are in some type of verAcal development that I'm no longer looking to fade. I am only
looking to join the acAon. Now, having this type of clarity around your entries helps a lot, because when
you're looking at the market, you can understand, I am only looking to join or I am only looking to fade.
Based on what I'm seeing right now and the principles that I trade within, I should know. The only thing I

am looking to do is fade this acAon. The only thing I am looking to do is to join the longs. There's no
fighAng this, I'm just looking to join. And when you get this kind of clarity, it really makes your trading so
much more enjoyable and it takes away a lot of trading frustraAons.
So I know I'm going all in. I know I'm scaling out based on the profile method here. I always know
whether I'm looking to join or whether I'm looking to fade. And this doesn't mean I'm always right, and that
I always know what's going to work, but I at least know what's most likely and I know where my edge is.
The next thing is just going to be taking your exits. Now for this, I have it broken up into three parts, and
this is the way that I'll manage my posiAons. I go all in and then I scale out in three secAons. So the first
scale out that I do is just to miAgate risk. The second scale out is to secure profits and then the last scale
out where I exit the trade completely is either just to secure profit, or to keep a posiAon on as a runner to
see if there's a liMle something extra that could be pulled out of that trade.
So I enter a trade. I miAgate my risk. I secure some profits and then I look to see if there is anything
extra that can be added to that. And really what we've seen with this, every trade example that we've
looked at. If I just go back and pull any of these up and we look at it, all of these involve some variaAon of
going all in. The trade not working in this case, so I just exit. Entering as the trade starts working, I hit the
scale out. This didn't give me enough room to get my first scale out, but I scale out to miAgate risk. So now,
if this trade does this and then kicks back around and I lose, I've taken a liMle bit of profit and I'm losing less
than if I was just holding my whole posiAon. So this is a nice scenario for me on a losing trade.
This is kind of worst case scenario where it just goes straight against me. So I've miAgated some of my
risk. I've locked in profits. And this first trade is not about trying to kill the market or make a lot of gains. It's
just about to miAgate some of the risk. Then it's locking in profits and then I'm looking for either a runner
or looking for my target to be reached. And in some cases, when the market is expected to get direcAonal,
I'll be looking to keep that runner on and keep pushing it. In this environment, we're currently in balance,
we've returned to value and so I'm not looking to extend things too far, even though this was an insane
coast to coast trade. Typically, we're not even geFng that much out of trade, this was a very beauAful
example. Okay. But just to kind of highlight what we're talking about here, every example we've looked at,
you've seen that same thing where I've entered, and then there's been a series of exits it's because I'm
miAgaAng risk, I'm securing profit.
And then I'm either taking the trade off when I secure that profit, or in some cases, I have a liMle bit leV
on so that I can push it and maybe it can just be a runner. And by runner, I just mean, I'm holding some
posiAon that's just kind of going farther than I thought it was going to go and I don't want to limit it, so I'll
just kind of trail behind and just let it go as far as it's going to go. But that's how I'm exiAng and
understand... Again, the real powerful thing about this is these are things we don't want to think about. I

just know every Ame I'm entering a trade, I'm going all in. If the trade goes against me, I'm just going all out.
If the trade starts working, I'm going to take off some take off to miAgate some risk.
I'm going to secure some profits and then I'm going to have the last part of my posiAon, just secure
profit, or to be on for a runner, depending on what the environment is. But these are really nice things to
just get sorted and to get straight out and this is a really good management that includes a lot of different
elements here, and this is exactly how I do it. This is a great thing that you should try and follow along, and
you can make some changes in this if you like. There's no necessary thing to do exactly what I do, but this is
a very powerful process and you would be very well to try this and to follow it exactly. Now, the last part of
this is going to be just your risk control. So when you are entering a trade, how much are you risking? And
risk is one of the most important things that we could possibly talk about.
And for that reason, I really used to explain this and the way that I would talk about risk, I tried to make
it longer and a liMle bit more drawn out of a topic because I was always afraid that if I just broke it down
simply, that it wouldn't come across as important as it needs to be. So I'm just going to break it down very
simply because our risk parameters can be very simple. We just need to make sure that we have a
sustainable risk plan, because we're go going to be wrong a lot. Remember the first principle we operate
within, this is not an exact science. We are not looking for flawless accuracy. We have trade ideas that
don't work. We have a value area that holds, but instead of returning to the point of control, it just turns
around and doesn't hold the next minute and we don't know why.
These things happen from Ame to Ame. The purpose of the profile method here is not to just be right
all the Ame, but it is a sustainable method that has a good edge. We just need to follow it. So our risk
parameters, the way I would like to think about this and I would suggest breaking down your risk control is
simply a percentage of your account that you're willing to risk. You want to divide that by the number of
trade aMempts that you want to give yourself. This equals how much you're risking on every trade. So as an
example, the percentage of risk that you're taking, this should be somewhere probably between like one in
five, maybe one in 10%, depending on how aggressive you're being. If you're being very conservaAve, one
to 3%, if you're being very aggressive, five, six, 7%, anything higher than that.
And so you would just figure this out for yourself. I have an example down here at the boMom of the
screen, where it just says, a $25,000 account risking 3% and that would be a fairly conservaAve approach.
Now, as far as the number of aMempts, this is on any given day or any given week, depending on how you
want to broaden this out. How many trade aMempts are you going to give yourself? So for instance, I want
to have three aMempts and if you're doing this daily, what you'd want to do is somewhere between
probably like three and five. Three would be like the minimum, you want to have at least three tries to get
trades to work. And if you give yourself over five, there's a good chance that if you put five trades on and
all of them go against you, something is just wrong today.

You're out of it. The market's being too volaAle, something's going wrong and you just need to stop.
And so somewhere between three and five aMempts per day is a good spot to be in. Less than that is
tough, more than that is probably kind of reckless, but this gives us our risk parameters. We understand
that 3% of a $25,000 account, that should be like $750. Three aMempts at that would be $250 for each
aMempt. So I put on a trade and it doesn't work, I can put on another trade. I put on another trade and that
one works, it's all good. I sAll have my risk parameters. But no maMer what happens, you're just staying in
that risk control and you're always just risking the same amount and so you just posiAon size. If a trade has
a Aghter stop, then you can use a liMle bit more size if you need to broaden your stop a liMle bit because of
where you're entering or because of market condiAons, then you can just limit your size a liMle bit, but you
would just posiAon size around that.
And so, as an example, this would be around five points per trade that you would be risking. If you
were trading full size contracts on something like the S&P. But for you, I would just break this down and
this to me is a very nice way to stay within risk parameters and this is how I would suggest controlling your
risk. There's a lot of effecAve strategies out there, but this is a very effecAve one, and this is what I use and
what I would suggest. So what we're talking about, a lot of different elements that make this up, but this
right here is just a very specific management, and this is the same exact management that we're using
inside of the trade act with our clients. This is one of our members, Sergio, who you can see down here at
the boMom of the screen, how he's managing his posiAons with his entries, with his scale outs, with his
exits.
Using this to have one of his largest winning days since he joined the program. Making just over a
$1,000 and having another day, the same exact thing. You can see how he's puFng these geFng along
with three contracts, scaling out, miAgaAng that risk, securing profit, going to his target, just kind of rinse,
wash and repeaAng. Being able to lock in a $1,000 on this one trade. Having a day, Sergio, same person, 75
points on the day, just puFng up some insane numbers and racking in some really good money, $50 per
point on the S&P. And that's the next level of trade management, really, really powerful stuff and the most
powerful thing about that is just having some structure and making sure that you're not randomly doing
things, but that you know what you're doing before you get into your trades and hopefully that outline will
be a very effecAve thing for you to start following and that's exactly what I'm doing.

Okay. We've covered a lot of informaAon and we want to wrap this up and kind of the main, last point
we're going to talk about is the six figure trading mindset. And this is just the mental side of what we do
here, because as traders, when we're on the screens and we're dealing with this, I think I said this at the
very beginning, but we do deal with some very unique things. The kind of challenges and the things that
you're going to feel as you trade the market, you're not going to feel these things anywhere else. You're not
going to be dealing with these issues in other areas of your life. They're not really going to surface, but
trading has a very unique way of pulling these things out of us.
And so I want to talk about a few elements, and then I also want to give us some tacAcal things that we
can start doing right away. So first things first, I think the most important thing that we just need to have as
a preface here is that our brains are not wired to make us good at trading. They're not wired to make us
good traders. Our brains are wired to try and seek out joy and easy things. Our brains are wired for survival
and number of other things, but they are not wired to make us good traders. Now, what makes this
important or what makes us very nice to understand is we have a lot of impulses and typically our impulses
are the exact opposite of what we need to be doing. We can be in a trade and the trade can be working,
and we can feel the impulse to get out and to close that trade early.
And we act on it, we take the trade off and then the trade conAnues in our direcAons for hundreds and
hundreds of dollars that we just leV on the table. Why did we do that? When we're in a trade, that's going
against us. We're going to feel the impulse to want to late leave that trade on and to let a losing trade do
way more damage than it needs to do, because we can't really bring ourselves to just close out the trade.
Why did we do that? We're doing this because our natural impulses are not designed to make us good at
trading. And so what's nice to understand is just as a moment of awareness, this isn't necessarily going to
fix anything, but just understanding that, we can start to be aware of what our impulses are, because if

you're not aware of this, you feel things and then you act upon them and as you act upon them, we just
create trading errors.
So we have to be able to keep our impulses in check and when we feel certain things we don't have to
act. Just because you're in a trade that's working and you feel scared and you want to get out of the trade.
It doesn't mean you actually have to, but this requires us to understand some things emoAonally, and to be
aware of certain things about ourselves. Now, along this idea of not being wired to be good at trading, we
need to understand that most things in our world set us up to be programmed to also be very bad at
trading.
So let me give you one of the best examples is that in our world, we typically have a certain amount of
certainty that we expect out of things, because everything in our world is based on we do this, and we
know that this happens. So for instance, we go and we buy a Acket, we get access to the concert. We get
into the event. You don't buy a Acket and then show up to the gate and wonder if you're going to get in.
You know that you're geFng in, unless you have some kind of a bootleg Acket that you bought in the
parking lot. Study hard, get good grades, these things work. We understand that if we get bad grades, we
can track that back to an effort that we put in. And if we know that if we hit the books and if we study
hard, we're going to get good grades. Show up to work, get paid, flip the switch, Show up to work, get paid.
Flip the switch, the light comes on. This is what happens in most area of our life. We put two and two
together, we get four. And what ends up happening is through all these situaAons and just hundreds of
others we could be going through, but we are condiAoned to do a certain acAon and to get a certain
reward, or to just expect a certain amount of certainty where we do this, and then this happens. But in the
markets, we do not get that.
The market does not give us a specific amount of certainty. And this is one of the biggest reasons why
very intelligent people, very smart people cannot trade. They cannot trade because they can't get over this.
In every other area of their life, they're used to being successful by their effort, they're used to put in hard
work, be driven, do the right thing, win. I do this and I can get beMer and I can win. In trading, you can do
all the analysis that you want, you can have a great trade idea, but that trade idea can sAll fail. And the
reason it can fail is because the market does not give us a specific amount of certainty like almost every
other area of our life does.
Now, the reason that it doesn't is because there are some forces at work that move the market, and we
understand that there's bears and we understand that there's bulls. We understand there's buyers and
there's sellers that are moving the market, to oversimplify this, up and down. But there's also another force
in the market that is what I like to just call the shadow. Every market has this, not just bulls, not just bears,
but there's also a shadow that is present.

Now, the shadow is anybody who is observing the market, waiAng on the fringe, and ready to enter. So
what we see happen in trading is buyers step in, sellers step in, and we can understand and we can see that
this is happening. But what we can't see is who is siFng on the sidelines ready to enter the market. At any
given Ame, there can be very small retail traders that are just waiAng to enter. As soon as price hits
somewhere, they just enter for whatever their reasons are. But there could also be massive accounts, huge
funds that are siFng on the sidelines that, at any minute, somebody can just enter the market. Do you
understand how this dynamic works? We have bears, we have bulls, but then we have just other people,
what I call the shadow.
And the shadow can threaten every single trade because we don't know what this is. We don't know
what size this is. We don't know if it's going long or if it's going short. And we can understand, through
order flow, through volume profiling, we have tools and we have resources to know where people are
buying, where people are selling. We can see how many people are selling, how many people are buying.
All of this stuff can be tracked. We can look at it. We can understand it, but there's no tool. We can't
understand who is siFng on the sidelines ready to enter the market. And because we can't track this, we
don't know how big they are, we don't know if they're geFng long, or if they're geFng short, this threatens
every single trade and this is why you can do your analysis and things can be looking like your trade is
working out and out of nowhere, the trade can just start to fail.
Because for some reason, somebody stepped in, maybe the market was going up, it was looking good,
we're conAnuing to go up, and then all of a sudden we just start going down for, to you, what might seem
like for no reason, but somebody decided to step into the market with some size and it changed everything.
This is what I talk about, one of our principles, we understand that this is not an exact science. We're not
looking for flawless accuracy, and we understand that in the market, we can have structure, we can have a
process, we can follow our edge, but someAmes the trade just fails. And it doesn't fail because we missed
analysis or because we did the "wrong thing", but it failed for no other reason than somebody was out of
the market and they decided to step in. And when they stepped in, things got moved around and things got
changed.
And again, this goes back to the fact of, in almost every other area of life, you have an element of
control where as long as you study hard or as long as you work hard, you can control the outcome. In
trading, it doesn't maMer how hard you work, you can never control the outcome. And this makes a very
tricky dynamic. And this is one of the biggest reasons why very intelligent, very successful people, a lot of
Ames, make very bad traders because they're too used to relying on their own efforts and they can't get
over the fact that they did the right thing, they did their analysis, the trade failed, and they can't bring
themselves to accept that or to get out of trades. And everything goes amok aVer that.

Now this is also the reason why risk becomes so important, controlling our risk. So we must
understand that our natural impulses do not create good trading and that the market involves a certain
level of uncertainty. These two aspects are very important to just nail down. We're talking about these at a
high level, but if you can start to figure out that the natural things you want to do do not line up with good
trading and that the market involves a level of uncertainty and the reason it is not certain is because there's
this shadow, this element that we can't track, we can't control it, we can't know what it is. And so in the
world that we've signed up for trading, there's always going to be this level of uncertainty that we have to
deal with.
The way that we deal with this is, one, by controlling our risk. Another great way that we control this is
with structure and through just personal preparaAons every day. Having some structure and having a
process where you prepare yourself mentally to deal with these unique challenges and to face this is really
extremely powerful. And what I want to do now is just share with you a sample pre-market preparaAon
that you can start following and that you can go through.
So here's a pre-market prep. I want to walk through this and we'll talk about why some of this is very
important, because I know what happens is a lot of traders, they wake up, they probably grab a coffee, and
then they just jump on the charts and they just start. And this is a huge mistake. Everything that we're
doing in trading, it does come down to personal performance and there's no athlete, there's no high
performer that when they're starAng their craV, they just show up and start doing it. Every athlete, every
performer, every person who's performing a craV, they have some type of a process that they're following
where they get themselves prepared and they get themselves ready for what they're geFng ready to do.
And so this will be very, very important that you incorporate some of this into your trading, and this will
do wonders for your own personal performance. So I'm going to give you a sample, very simplisAc, but if
you don't have any type of process that you're following, it would be very good to copy this down and to
start working on this.

So first things first, waking up. This is designed as somebody who wakes up and starts trading in the
morning, but depending on what your schedule is and how you work and what goes on in your life, you can
make any adjustments to this as you need. First things, drink water, breathe, and stretch. Being hydrated
when we talk about performance is one of the best things that you can do for your mental clarity and to do
for your focus. Being hydrated is a very simplisAc thing that you do not want to take, you don't want to just
skip over. When you sleep, you tend to get a liMle bit dehydrated and so waking up and just starAng the
day by drinking water, having yourself a couple big glasses is very important.
Then breathing and stretching, these kind of things can happen together, but also if you're siFng at a
desk for long periods of Ame, stretching is very important just for your biomechanics and for your
circulaAon and a lot of stuff. And so having maybe a small rouAne where this just takes five minutes or so
that you just stress your body slightly, you stretch it out, you breathe heavily while you're doing it. Another
thing that we don't do that oVen is breathe heavy just because of all the modern inconveniences, but our
bodies really were designed to breathe, and in a lot of cases, heavily. And the process of breathing sets
things in moAon that don't get acAvated otherwise.
So waking up to start your day, drinking some water, taking some very big breaths, stretching out your
body, or some version of stressing your body. This could be going on a walk, a jog, doing something
physical, very nice way to start your day. And then once you've done that, there's basically just 10 minutes
here, a liMle bit less than that, where I would suggest siFng down, puFng on a Amer, and then just
spending three minutes, spending Ame in graAtude, just spend a minute being grateful for yourself,

thinking about all the things about yourself that you're grateful for, being proud and grateful for your
health, for what you're accomplishing, what you're doing, the path that you're on. Be thankful for the
people around you, name them, think about them. Be thankful for the surroundings around you, the place
that you're in, the places and the things that you have access to. Just spend three minutes being grateful.
What's really nice about this is graAtude is the closest thing that you can get to being abundant. And in
this business of trading, we're here to create money, we're here to create wealth, and the more in sync you
can get with being abundant, the beMer this whole process is going to go for you. So as traders especially,
spending Ame every day to be grateful is very important to the mental side of what we do.
Okay. Three minutes of just thinking about your day, once that three minutes, the Amer goes off, just
go to the next three minutes, think about your day. And this can just be the fact of seFng some intenAon
for what's coming into the day and also so that things don't really sneak up on you. It's always good to be
thoughrul of what's coming up so that you can be prepared, so that you can act on these things, spending
three minutes just to process what's coming up, what's happening, what you need to take care of inside
and outside of trading.
And then three minutes of thinking about your goal already achieved. This is massively important to
have something that you're shooAng for, something that you're trying to accomplish. If I can look back on
my life and ever pick out a Ame when I was feeling just kind of discouraged, or if I was feeling lethargic or
unmoAvated or unenergeAc, I can always track back these Ames where I was not having a clear goal and I
wasn't having something that I was shooAng for, or that I was reaching for. And I'm sure if you're in your life
right now and you're somewhere where maybe you feel very low energy and you don't feel very excited
about your life or you just don't feel very focused on anything, I can probably guarantee that you don't
have a clear goal that you're shooAng for.
Having something to reach for, having something to aim for is very important to just moAvaAon and
just to be able to do the right thing every day. And so when you have a goal, you'll forget about it within a
couple days if you don't keep it in front of you. So, just spending a few minutes every day thinking about
your goal and thinking about it as if you've already done it. This is a very important thing as well. So this will
take about 10 minutes, maybe another 10 minutes with waking up, drinking, breathing, stretching. So
about 15 or 20 minutes here of some preparaAon Ame.
But during this Ame, you've hydrated yourself, you've done some breathing, you've sAmulated some
parts of your body, you've been grateful, you've prepared mentally for the day. You've goMen in line with
your goals of what you're shooAng for. And then you can start your trading day. This is infinitely beMer than
just waking up, grabbing a coffee, and then just opening up your charts. Prepare for the day, get your head
straight, and even this very, very simple plan will do wonders if you're not doing anything.

Now starAng the trading day, this is where you would actually take some acAon and fire up your
screens. And what I want to share with you is a template that you can use, and you can take this, make
yourself a copy, and you can use this day in and day out. Now, what this template is designed to do is that
when you sit down at the screens, you've gone through a pre-market preparaAon Ame where you've goMen
yourself ready, and now you're ready to prepare for the trading day. This is going to be an exact process
that you can just follow day in and day out.
Now, what I'll do is I'm going to provide this as a resource so you can download it, this will be available
as a bonus, you can just make yourself a copy and have access to this. And as a part of the bonus, I'm going
to create a video, just tutorial walking through the different elements of how this template is designed and
what exactly you should be filling in. I'll include some of the other resources that you'll need as well. And
this is just what I call the plan of aMack template, and this is basically just a plan of how you're going to
aMack the day. And this will be available, as I said, as a bonus so you can get access to this, which I would
encourage, and you can also check out the video that goes along with this where I'll be explaining in detail
how to use this template.
And this is really just a good pre-market preparaAon sample that you can go through, you can follow
these things day in and day out. And one of the big reasons we need to be doing this, when we're talking
about winning the mental baMle here, is because as we set up structures and we follow those things, we
reinforce and we create belief in ourselves that we can set out to do something and that things happen on
our terms and that we do them the way we planned.
So, as an example of this, if you sit down at the charts and you just randomly take acAons and there's
no real structure and you don't specifically know what you're doing, you're really seFng a precedent that
you are taking random acAons and you don't have a lot of intenAon. When you follow the same exact steps
every single day, you'll be amazed at how this starts to reinforce belief in yourself. And as traders, this is so
important because when you start to lose faith or belief in yourself, to sAck to the process, to sAck to risk
parameters, to just do what you said you're going to do, the business of trading can get ugly very fast. And
just in life, this is a very dangerous and it's a sad place to be in.
And a good example of this would just be, let's say that you set an alarm and you decide that you're
waking up tomorrow at 6:00 AM. 6:00 AM rolls around and you hit the snooze buMon, you stay in bed, you
hit the snooze buMon again, you stay in bed and you end up rolling out of bed around 6:30. You didn't in
that moment just sleep in a liMle bit that day, what you've really done, whether we understand this or not,
is you've started to reinforce the idea that you say you do things, but you don't follow through. And when
that becomes something that you believe and something that you expect, everything else is going to go off
the rails in your life to the extent where if you are in the habit of not believing in yourself and not seFng
out to do things and following through, you'll sit down at the screens, you'll have a risk parameter that

you're supposed to sAck within, but in the heat of the moment when all your emoAons are at play, you'll
pretend that risk parameter isn't even there and you'll end up doing a lot of damage to your account.
The way that we do one thing just tends to be the way that we do everything. And so, following these
structures as I've outlined, this goes very far beyond just following some rouAnes. Even this very simple
process is structured in a way where if you can sAmulate your mind, if you can stay hydrated, if you can
sAmulate your body, these things help prepare you mentally to deal with things and they help sAmulate
your body so that you can perform beMer. And then having the structures in place of not leFng yourself
just sit down at the screens and do random things, but knowing what you're doing, acAng on those things,
these reinforce at a very subconscious level, these things we aren't typically aware of, but it will really
enforce the idea that you have belief in yourself, that you set out to do things and you follow through on
them as well. So, very powerful and you have access to this. So, I would really encourage to go through this
process and just follow this day in and day out.
Now, going back to where we've started, the very beginning and just looking at this roadmap one more
Ame. This is the process of everything that we've covered today, and we've really covered a lot of
informaAon. We started off talking just about the six-figure volume profile strategy and we looked at the
model of how we need to start and grow a trading business, we laid a lot of foundaAonal informaAon there.
We looked at viewing the market in matrix mode, and we introduced the history of the volume profile. We
looked at the different parts that make up a volume profile. We talked about aucAon market theory,

balance and discovery mode. Then we talked about the volume profile formula and what we do with all this
informaAon. We looked at the different types of volume profiles that are available to us. We looked at
intraday, composite, micro composite. We briefly touched on VWAP. We looked at trigger levels. A lot of
those individual pieces that just make up the method.
Then we talked about next-level risk management. And once we have some of this structure in place,
what kind of processes do we need to follow that remove some of the random acAons and remove some of
the confusion so that when we step into a trade, we just know exactly what we're doing, we know that this
is sustainable and we just follow through? And then we finished up just talking about the mental side of
this, looking at specifically a few topics around the way that we are just not naturally wired to perform well
in trading. And most of the Ame, our natural impulses will be the wrong things. We need to be aware of
that, keep those in check. And the fact that the market just creates a certain level of uncertainty that we're
not used to dealing with in other areas of life, but this is something that we have to adapt to if we want to
trade. And then we went through some structural things just a moment ago that will really help prepare us
mentally and help us win the mental game.
And if you can just follow this blueprint here of starAng off with laying some foundaAonal informaAon
and having a almost theoreAcal understanding of what you're doing and why you're doing it, which is where
we started and what we covered here in the beginning, and then being able to build on that foundaAon
with some very tacAcal informaAon, moving away from theory, but moving into some real tacAcs and
understanding the specifics and understanding what exactly you need to do as far as the acAons and the
skillsets that you need. And then going a step beyond that, moving away from maybe just analysis and
drilling into the performance of pulling that trigger and the processes that we need to have in place so that
this becomes effortless and that we know what we're doing always. And then pairing that with just the
mental side of what we do and making sure that we're able to perform all of these things that we talked
about earlier and we don't start breaking down or losing the baMle mentally.
And this really here is this is the blueprint. This is the roadmap of how to build a six-figure trading
business, being very efficient with your Ame, with your resources, and geFng very focused and very clear.
And by focusing on only just one method. And as I'm just recapping this with you, we've covered a lot of
informaAon, I find myself geFng a liMle bit of a second wind here as we're going through all of this. To me,
this stuff is so exciAng. This stuff is awesome to talk about. It's awesome to execute on every day and to be
a part of just creaAng these acAons.
And what I want to do right now is just extend out to you a very specific invitaAon. If you've been
going through this with me and you find yourself also just being excited by this informaAon and ready to
get out there and to start using the volume profile and implemenAng this, then I want to invite you to jump
on a call with a member of one of our team, because as you're going through this, I would love to be

working with you as a client and I'd love to bring you on board and to have you a member of our advanced
trainings where we go into a lot of the stuff we covered at high level, but we just really drill into those and
obviously cover a lot of things that we weren't able to do in just this quick Ame that we've had together.
And so what you'll see is you'll see some prompAngs on the screen and around you that you can just
follow. And what this is going to do is it's going to allow you to have access to a one-on-one call with a
member of our team. This call is completely free and what'll happen is, if you follow the prompAngs, it'll
take you to a calendar where you can secure a Ame slot that works for you and that works for our team as
well, and then you'll just have a one-on-one call where we can ask you some quesAons about your trading,
about your account size, about the Ames that you can trade, and just really try to get a beMer
understanding of where you are at in this trading journey, and that'll really help us understand what the
next step needs to be for you and if going on to our advanced coaching and working with us at a deeper
level is a really good fit.
So this call's completely free. And as we've gone through this training, I've introduced you to some of
our clients and some of the results that they've been geFng, and I'm geFng ready to, we'll roll some film
here and introduce you to several other of our clients that you can hear their experience. And all of their
clients and anybody who's worked with us at Tradacc, everybody has jumped on one of these calls where
we've onboarded them personally, talked it through, got to hear their situaAon. And I want to extend that
out to you as a special invitaAon as being a part of the Volume Profile Formula. We want to make sure that
you have access to us and access to the calendars so that you can jump on a Ame slot and see if taking the
next steps with us at Tradacc is the right move for you.
I've really enjoyed our Ame together. I'm glad you're with me all the way All the end. You have access to
this recording that you can go back and you can watch and you can dive into some of these parts as well.
Let's go ahead. We're going to wrap it up right there. Once again, a big thank you for spending your Ame
with me. I hope you got a lot out of this training. I hope that we over delivered for you. And I look forward
to seeing you on the inside and I hope you take advantage of the call that's available to you right now.

there for you. It's really improved me a lot in my trading journey. Korbs has two Q&As
per week and live streams, so there's always a chance to get your quesAons out there

recommend hiFng Korbs up, checking out his YouTube channel, checking out the
Tradacc Accelerator, seeing what it's all about, and I'm sure you'll find a lot of value just like I have.
