Volume Profile maps traded volume across price so you can see where the market accepted value (Value Area) and the single most traded price (POC).
PEPS builds a visible-range profile from Binance spot OHLCV on 25 USDT pairs (1H, 4H, 1D), ranks profile states by strength, and charts POC / VAH / VAL with a volume histogram.
What is Volume Profile?
POC (Point of Control) is the price level with the highest volume — the fairest traded price in the window.
Value Area High/Low (VAH/VAL) bound ~70% of volume around the POC. Price above VAH or below VAL often signals imbalance.
HVN (High Volume Nodes) are thick acceptance zones; LVN (Low Volume Nodes) are thin areas where price can travel quickly.
How to read the PEPS profile
Histogram bars show relative volume at each price bin. Wider bars = more volume.
Yellow line = POC; green = VAH; red = VAL. The shaded Value Area is where most trading occurred.
Profile state labels describe where the last close sits vs the Value Area (above, below, inside, at POC, HVN reject, LVN vacuum).
Strength ranks how decisive the imbalance or POC dominance is — higher scores mean clearer structure.
Using Volume Profile on PEPS Crypto
Pick a timeframe tab (1H, 4H, 1D). Higher timeframes produce more structural levels.
Filter by bias or profile state, then click a row. The chart draws POC/VAH/VAL and the volume histogram.
Strength (0–100) ranks imbalance vs Value Area and POC dominance.

How it works
- Data refreshes about every 10 minutes from Binance spot OHLCV (~200 candles per scan).
- Volume is distributed across each candle’s high–low into 48 price bins; Value Area covers ~70% of total volume.
- The action guide under the chart suggests practical next steps based on profile bias.
- Search by symbol or filter states from the dropdown to focus on setups you trade most.
- Times in the table follow your GMT selector in the site header.
What to consider
- Profiles are rule-based heuristics — not financial advice. Fees, slippage and news are not modelled.
- Visible-range profiles change as new candles print; levels are not fixed like classic fixed-range VP.
- Futures volume can differ from spot data used here.
- Low-cap pairs outside the 25-symbol universe are not scanned.
- Practice reading POC/VA rotations on higher timeframes before sizing live positions.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between POC and VAH/VAL?
- POC is the single highest-volume price. VAH and VAL are the upper and lower bounds of the Value Area that together contain about 70% of volume around the POC.
- Why is price above the Value Area called bullish?
- It means the auction accepted higher prices than the bulk of recent volume. That can fail quickly — always confirm with trend and levels.
- Is this tool suitable for beginners?
- Yes, as a structured way to learn auction market theory. Start on 4H/1D, click rows, and compare POC vs close before risking capital.
Conclusion
Volume Profile turns volume-at-price into actionable structure: POC, Value Area and HVN/LVN.
Treat each profile state as a hypothesis — let price acceptance or rejection prove it, then align with your risk plan.
