Day Trading Indicators: VWAP, Volume Profile, and the Opening Range
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Episode three of the Trader Dane podcast (not financial advice) explains what technical indicators are and how they’re derived from candlestick price and time data, using moving averages as a core example, including concepts like golden/death crosses and tools such as Bollinger Bands. Dane argues indicators can simplify price action and help traders make decisions, then focuses on the subset he uses for day trading: the 15-minute opening range (high/low of the first 15 minutes), the session volume profile and its key levels (value area low/high and point of control, often using the prior day’s levels), and anchored VWAPs, which combine price, volume, and time and are anchored to key session points (New York open, prior day New York open, and the 6:00 PM changeover). Emphasis is on using confluence among these levels, plus monitoring the “Mag 7” and correlated indices (ES, NQ, YM) to increase confidence, manage risk with stop orders, and adjust position sizing.
