Fibonacci Volume Profiles
Feb 10, 2025
The Fibonacci Volume Profiles indicator blends Fibonacci retracement levels with volume distribution analysis to help traders identify high-probability areas of support, resistance, and market confluence. By visualizing volume profiles directly alongside key Fibonacci levels, users can better determine the strength of price interaction at specific market structures.
Usage
The indicator provides two distinct modes for calculating Fibonacci levels and volume profiles:
- Continuous Mode: Automatically detects dynamic pivot highs and lows based on a user-defined time horizon. This mode is ideal for tracking evolving market structures without manual adjustment.
- Custom Period Mode: Allows users to set specific start and end points via time inputs. This is useful for analyzing volume distribution within a specific trend or trading range.
Traders can use the integrated volume profile to confirm Fibonacci levels. If a Fibonacci retracement level aligns with a high-volume node or the Point of Control (PoC), it suggests stronger historical interest and potential price reaction. Conversely, low-volume zones may indicate areas where price could move quickly.
Details
The script constructs a volume profile by grouping historical volume data into price bins (determined by the Profile Resolution setting). It identifies the Point of Control (PoC) as the price bin with the highest traded volume within the selected range. The Fibonacci levels (0%, 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 78.6%, and 100%) are overlaid on top of these profiles.
In Continuous mode, the indicator dynamically updates as new pivots are formed. In Custom Period mode, the levels remain static based on the selected timestamps, with an optional "Extend Right" feature to project levels into the future for forward-looking analysis.

FAQ
How do I interpret the Point of Control (PoC) in this tool? The PoC represents the price level with the highest traded volume. It acts as a significant price magnet where the most market activity occurred within the selected range.
Can I use this for intraday and daily timeframes? Yes, the indicator is versatile and adjusts its calculations based on the timeframe of your chart, whether you are scalping on 1-minute charts or analyzing long-term trends on the daily.
How can I access the Fibonacci Volume Profiles? You can get access on the LuxAlgo Library for charting platforms like TradingView, MetaTrader (MT4/MT5), and NinjaTrader for free.
