Intra-Day Volume Distribution
The Value Area represents the price range where approximately 70% of the day's volume traded. This concept comes from Market Profile theory - it defines the zone of "fair value" for the session, where the majority of market participants agreed to transact.
Identifying Key Levels
Dvaluearea visualizes the Value Area High (VAH), Value Area Low (VAL) and Point of Control (POC) based on session data. These three levels form the core framework for intraday trading decisions - price above the VAH suggests buyer strength, while price below the VAL signals seller control.

Unusual Volume Highlights
Beyond the standard Value Area, the indicator highlights price levels where volume activity deviates significantly from the norm. These unusual volume spikes often mark institutional intervention - a sudden surge at a specific level can signal large orders being filled that will influence future price action.
Application for Day Traders
Open your session and immediately reference yesterday's Value Area. If the market opens inside it, expect rotational trading around the POC. If it opens above or below, directional moves become more likely as the market has shifted its perception of fair value overnight.

Read Session Auction Completion
Opening inside yesterday's Value Area suggests rotational trading around POC. Opening outside signals directional potential as the market shifts fair value perception.
Trade Using Market Profile Logic
Price above VAH suggests buyer strength while price below VAL signals seller control. The POC acts as a gravitational center during ranging conditions.
Reference the Point of Control
The POC marks where the market found most agreement during the session. Unusual volume highlights at specific levels signal potential institutional intervention.

Value Area concepts from Market Profile theory help traders identify fair value zones, but applying these levels requires understanding how they are calculated. Here are common questions answered.
What percentage of volume defines the Value Area?
The standard Value Area encompasses approximately 70% of the session's traded volume, representing one standard deviation from the Point of Control. This 70% threshold identifies where most market participants agreed on price as fair value.
How should I interpret price opening outside yesterday's Value Area?
An open outside the prior Value Area suggests the market's perception of fair value has shifted overnight. If price sustains outside the VA, expect directional continuation. If it fails and re-enters the VA, expect rotation back toward the POC.
Why does the POC sometimes act as support and other times as resistance?
The POC marks where the most volume traded, meaning many participants have positions at that level. Price approaching from below may find support as longs defend. Approaching from above, those same participants may sell to exit, creating resistance.
