My husband traded in the same pit as Peter Steidlmayer at the CBOT in the early 1980's. Peter convinced the CBOT directors to bankroll the development of price data distributed in some Market Profile. He watched YOUR video along with me. He brought up names from the past who were instrumental in the early development of Market Profile. He remembered some CBOT directors who later said Peter wasted the CBOT's money in the profile development. But he said YOUR video is one of the best he's seen on TH-cam channel. Continue with your videos. You can continue with Perter's pioneering work in helping others learn about the markets.
WOW!! Thats an incredible story to hear. Much appreciation to all of the pit traders who really paved the way for modern trading to develop. Those guys were the real deal, quite literally fighting for positions and getting it done. I really appreciate the fact that you took the time to leave such a comment and that he's got high thoughts of the video. Wishing you the best Sara!
This is insane! Been watching trading videos from many different people for one year now, and NONE of them as clear as your videos! I get the feeing many TH-camrs always keep lots of info to themselves to encourage people to sign up for their courses, but you offer the information freely and in a very easily digestible way. Clearly you have some teaching background. Thank you kindly for your videos. Much appreciated.
@TradeBrigade do u have a live chat u trade live with? Wod love to join, I used to trade 2 years ago and now I am back and I specialized in market profile in ES and CL futures. Let me know if u know live chat that we can trade together. Thanks
this is the culmination of what jim dalton ,pete reznicek and every other market profile teachers say in their courses . you saved me 16 hours time . really good
Fantastic video! Took me two days to watch it and will definitely need to watch it a bunch more but this is EXACTLY the kind of video I've been searching for in regards to Market Profile. I love how succinct and clear you teaching style is. Even the use of your drawing tool is succinct and clear lol. You are a great teacher. Thanks for all you do. I'm sharing this video and channel with my trader friends for sure
Appreciate that Miguel! Thanks for taking the time to fully digest the content and then drop a comment. Means the world when the teachings have true impact. Stay green out there!
This isn't good. It's not even great. It's superb. The narrator enunciates, moves quickly, and covers every concept of any importance in MP. I knew it, but he highlighted and reinforced everything. I'll be watching this over and over and over, because I must have watch 100 trying to find this. OUTSTANDING! Thrilled to find this. Now, to investigate their other stuff.
Appreciate that James. Glad you found the content valuable and took the time to drop some feedback here in the comments. Hope you have a great long weekend, and enjoy the market profile journey!
Your teaching style is beyond addictive, thank you! Your thoroughness your content, coupled with your understandable, articulate voice are a combination that truly resonates and makes this interesting.
Thanks for the feedback Michael! Appreciate you checking out the tutorial and taking the time to leave a comment. Hope you have nothing but success in your profile journey.
In my journey of trying to understand Market Profile, this is absolutely the best explanation and tutorial on understanding the nuances of Market Profile. I have to give you props Matt, your videos and explanations are excellent.
I'm certain I will be rewatching/studying this video many many times. I always appreciate the content! I start my mornings with your live stream every day and it has become part of my morning routine. Many thanks!!
Love to hear it Cyber Speed! thanks for stopping by the video and being a viewer of the stream. Hope your week ends well, and you have nothing but success in your market profile journey!
Give it a watch multiple times. Take notes and most importantly go observe the market profile in action. Nothing beats getting screen time when it comes to trading.
@@TradeBrigade I just watched this video 3x , then I went on over to Peter’s explaining and then Jim D. Wow. Obviously I chose to learn from You , because I’m able to learn from your presentation and your tone matches how smooth you flow throughout the examination of all available indicators Brother can you please upload more on Market Profile. I’m afraid most of traders including myself are missing out on this opportunity
Great, clear and precise explanation of a very difficult subject. Your teaching style makes is so much easier to understand than most of the videos out there. Please keep it up!
Great video and very helpful! Just recently started learning about volume profile, determining order flow with bid&ask charts, and now TPO charts. It's almost like trading with only indicators and price action was the the equivalent of being in a dark and cluttered room, but now the light has been turned on! I was blind, but now I see!!!!
Thank you so much for this video. By far the best explanation of Market Profile available. If people are looking for a where to start video - this one is it.
really a great video man. thank you. i will appreciate if you can share your mouse cursor effect name and where to get it. and also your drawing tools software... thanks again
I understand your statement is a hyperbole. It just sounds negative. Sharing ideas and knowledge is a beautiful meaningful action, opposite of a crime.
Hi Matt, this video on market profile is the most comprehensive one on TH-cam. Would you mind telling me TOS volume profile setup? For day trading, should I use Day period or Week period?Thank you! Molly.
I listened to this twice. You explain market profile very well. Thank you. Please continue to teach. You are a very good teacher. Of course I will now subscribe and watch. I am trying to pass a combine, trading futures. Thanks again.
I have fellow traders that use this value profile but when they try to explain it, it was so hard to understand. But!!! your video here made it easy to understand!! thank you I learned an incredible amount
Appreciate that JR! Glad this was a more digestible way to take in the information. Thanks for taking the time to drop a comment and best of luck in your MP endeavors.
Amazing video, my friend. Very easy to follow (if you already have some trading experience), right to the point and sensibly structured. I finally understand these TPO charts. Thank you!
Hello Mr!! Thank you very much for the videos you make.! Do you have any manual or video or reference on how to delve deeper into the nuances of the Volume Taper? Thanks so much!
Anything with price action! You could technically look at AAPL though the market profile. or MSFT, AMZN... anything that trades. Its just a "type" of chart.
I’ve been watching your morning breakdowns and after seeing this video now know how you’re getting the VAH/VAL. You’ve helped me a ton as a new trader. See you in the penthouse 🤘🏻
It could be used as a long indication, but that just by itself is not enough to start a position in my opinion. The market was likely moving too fast there anyhow to actually pull off an entry.
Hey, that was great to watch. I will watch this few times again to fully understand. Maybe you know how to use market profile on tradingview? I couldnt find one with tpo and volume Subscribed to your channel and looking forward looking at your other videos, thanks, Mike.
Thanks for tuning in Mike! On trading view there is no TPO setting, however there is the volume profile option in the studies. Its called Session Volume Profile. Check it out and let me know if you have any further questions.
Since it trades around the clock you get a 24 hour profile. 12:00 - 11:59. I have never trade forex so I cant speak to that scenario any further than that.
The volume Value Area looks lopsided at 19:42. There's far more light blue below the dark blue area than there is light blue above the dark area. How are the bounds of the dark blue area determined?
@@TradeBrigade Thanks for the response. I understand what it contains, but it could be from 0-70 or from 30-100 and still contain 70%. I would expect it to be from 15-85 to be centered (i.e., 15% below and 15% above), but it doesn't appear to be centered.
My day trading is changed forever. I was able to get rid of so many indicators by implementing market profile on my canvas. I'm getting better entries and exits. This is the way!
Excellent information and you are a great teacher. I realize this must be used with market internals, etc. however, when you mentioned taking calls at the bottom and puts at the top of a well balanced profile, That really wouldn't be a possibility would it? After all, you wouldn't know that it was a textbook bell curve until the day was over and it had completed its shape.
Youre right that other contextual clues are needed. For the most part, its referring to how "in theory" balance profiles, respect the highs and lows of the day.
This is a lot of good basics. Do you have a definite trade plan based on TPO with definite rules of acceptance/rejection of prior value areas and defined entry criteria for taking the trades?
No I do not, the basis of my trade plans come from trend and price action interpretation with the assistance of market profile to help define where balance and acceptance are. also highly attentive to the poor high / poor low phenomenon when it presents itself.
This is such an amazing channel TB thank you for putting in the time and effort. It’s become my new favorite go to just to learn. I’m a fairly new retail trader. Had early success then continued losses and I’ve realized that 2020 trading was an anomaly and I need to further my education. Your channel is an incredible resource. Thank you again!
Appreciate your sentiments Supa Nova. Thanks for tuning in and taking the time to drop such a well worded comment. Wishing you much success in your trading career.
I'll throw you another one from a traditionalist; The Opening Range and Initial Balance are two separate things. The OR is the first few minutes of trade (3 minutes), and the IB is the first hour. The two are used for very different things/reasons. The OR is an area of change, similar to a prior session pullback low or rally high. If the market drives and extends the range up in a session but later trades through the opening range and finds acceptance within and/or below it then something has changed.
Interesting! Thanks for the input Kunou. always willing to learn from others who have more experience with the profile than myself. I generally am just looking at value and structure, not so much the nuances of being a purist. Appreciate the comment, and hoping the recent market conditions have been treating you well!
After watching many videos on Market Profile, I can very confidently say that this is BEST video till date on the topic. Each and everything very clearly explained, Absolutely loved it. Looking for more videos like this in the future. Thanks a lot 🤘🤘
Glad it was helpful! Appreciate you taking the time to drop a comment as well. Best of luck on your market profile journey, and glad to have kickstarted it in a minor way.
trade brigade question regard the weak low and high so to match it witch a prior POC or value area levels has to be a limit distance lets say 10 $ or very close to. or just a desent distance ?
Not entirely sure that I understand your question here. A weak level is when there is confluence of a set of highs or lows at previous highs or lows, value area high or low, a point of control, or either extreme of single prints. It wasnts to be in the range of striking distance. There is no guaranteed rule for how far or close something MUST be. the close the better, the further the worse.
Excellent video. Never knew about Market Profile approach to finding trading opportunities. Seems very intuitive. Thanks for putting out great training content.
@@TradeBrigade Watched this video one year later and now it makes a lot of sense after watching it during your daily live show and weekly updates. Thanks.
Thank you so much. Been reading Mr Dalton’s book “Mind Over Markets”. You have a great talent for teaching in a calm, to the point and clear way. Learning market profile is really giving me a better understanding about what the market is doing and where it’s probably going.
Appreciate you tuning in Aik. The platform that we used in this video is Tradovate. Think or Swim has a feature called 'monkey bars' but its not quite the same as TPO charts.
Been hoping you would release something like this because I am never able to understand that part of the video. I have some free time soon and this is first on my list of things I need to learn. Thank you so much for your time and dedication to this channel/community Matt!
You bet. Its a lot to take in one sitting so definitely split it up if you have to. Take notes and revisit! As always with trading and the markets nothing will replace hundreds of hours of screen time. Best of luck in the MP journey!
Matt, your videos rock the house...thanks for sharing your expertise. Am wondering what type of trading you do, day-trader? If so, what type of trading strategy? I am researching Profile Trading, but am still early on (less than 1 year) in my day-trading journey...and still learning the ropes.
Primarily day trading of /ES futures using the 5, 15, 1h, daily, charts. Profile references help for determining sentiment, and what type of participant is active in the market.
Its a lot of info, but it what you need to know if you want to start using profile. Let me know what you think down below!
Mat, Can we set up market profile in TOS use monkey bar? Can you make tutorial on this?
@@trunghuynh5162 Not entirely sure. Have never explored monkey bars too in depth.
Is the market profile available on TOS? I found the volume profile. It does not have the A, B, C's ....
@@bbwphantom It is! ITs just called monkey bars and used 0-9 instead of A-Z. Check out this video here: th-cam.com/video/ab_oNfQsONE/w-d-xo.html

Hello Mr!! Thank you very much for the videos you make.! Do you have any manual or video or reference on how to delve deeper into the nuances of the Volume Taper? Thanks so much!
Volume taper... not quite. I would just think of it as a way to get an excess low or high out of the market.
Hey Matt is market profile used just for futures?
Anything with price action! You could technically look at AAPL though the market profile. or MSFT, AMZN... anything that trades. Its just a "type" of chart.

Cheers! Mind over markets is a great recommendation if you want to take it to the next level.
Understood very clearly .
15:22 I got a question. B period opened up and couldn’t take the A low wouldn’t that be a good signal to go long in this example?
It could be used as a long indication, but that just by itself is not enough to start a position in my opinion. The market was likely moving too fast there anyhow to actually pull off an entry.

The volume Value Area looks lopsided at 19:42. There's far more light blue below the dark blue area than there is light blue above the dark area. How are the bounds of the dark blue area determined?
70% of the days trading volume. It might look lopsided, but Ill take computerized calculations over the naked eye any day!

@@TradeBrigade Thank you so much. really appreciate this
Great video! Very clearly explained!
Glad it was helpful!
trade brigade question regard the weak low and high so to match it witch a prior POC or value area levels has to be a limit distance lets say 10 $ or very close to. or just a desent distance ?
Not entirely sure that I understand your question here. A weak level is when there is confluence of a set of highs or lows at previous highs or lows, value area high or low, a point of control, or either extreme of single prints. It wasnts to be in the range of striking distance. There is no guaranteed rule for how far or close something MUST be. the close the better, the further the worse.
Great job. Thank You.
Appreciate it Alvin! Best of luck with your market profile journey
goodly presentation with brew of depth in info. much appreciated.
My pleasure. Glad it was insightful, and wishing you nothing but the best on the market profile journey.
Excellent video. Never knew about Market Profile approach to finding trading opportunities. Seems very intuitive. Thanks for putting out great training content.
You got it Jonathan! Thanks for tuning in.
@@TradeBrigade Watched this video one year later and now it makes a lot of sense after watching it during your daily live show and weekly updates. Thanks.
Good video. Any good TPO market profile on trading view or on IB TWS...?
Tradingview has a decent volume profile , but I havent seen market profile. I have no experience with IB so cant speak to the capacity there.
Thank you so much. Been reading Mr Dalton’s book “Mind Over Markets”. You have a great talent for teaching in a calm, to the point and clear way.
Learning market profile is really giving me a better understanding about what the market is doing and where it’s probably going.
You're very welcome! I stand on the shoulders of giants like Dalton. Wishing you nothing but success in the profile journey.
It was really interesting to know how to understand the market profile. Thank you so much. How to setup Market profile with letters on Thinkorswim?
Appreciate you tuning in Aik. The platform that we used in this video is Tradovate. Think or Swim has a feature called 'monkey bars' but its not quite the same as TPO charts.
I've learned so much from you, which dramatically improve my trading results too. Thank You, you are the the best.
Love to hear it Renatto! Thanks for tuning in and leaving this feedback. I greatly appreciate it.
great video can you please make a video on how to set up tpo profile in tos please?
ToS offers monkey bars, not traditional TPO profile charts. Will see what I can dig up soon.
thanks for your knowledge... great video
My pleasure! Thanks for tuning in
If you use footprint or (bid ask as its known on tradovate), can you do a similar video on that, for tradovate? Thanks for the content
Wonderful job, this opens my eyes to looking at intraday and swing trades with another perspective. 🙏 thank you 🙏
Happy to help! Glad it was useful

Hey, do you watch Market Profile from 6pm to 4pm or split 6pm-9:30am and 9:30am -4 pm? Or only the 9:30am -4pm session?
Never mind...I watched the video. Sorry about that. I wish you had some trade examples on the market profile.
Been hoping you would release something like this because I am never able to understand that part of the video. I have some free time soon and this is first on my list of things I need to learn. Thank you so much for your time and dedication to this channel/community Matt!
You bet. Its a lot to take in one sitting so definitely split it up if you have to. Take notes and revisit! As always with trading and the markets nothing will replace hundreds of hours of screen time. Best of luck in the MP journey!
Matt, your videos rock the house...thanks for sharing your expertise. Am wondering what type of trading you do, day-trader? If so, what type of trading strategy? I am researching Profile Trading, but am still early on (less than 1 year) in my day-trading journey...and still learning the ropes.
Primarily day trading of /ES futures using the 5, 15, 1h, daily, charts. Profile references help for determining sentiment, and what type of participant is active in the market.
Great video and explanation!! Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
