I stole this institutional supply/demand system & now make $1k/day

Main summary

Key takeaways

Finance

Finance-specific themes

  • Critique of classic support/resistance: The creator argues typical support/resistance drawing (“price bounced here before, so it’ll hold again”) is mostly guessing and leads to being “chopped up and faked.”
  • Institutional volume as the driver: Candlesticks are described as noise, while volume (institutional order flow/liquidity) determines where price reacts. Key belief: levels matter only where large orders/supply-demand are actually positioned, forcing price to react when revisited.
  • “Institutional” supply/demand zones are identified by aligning:
    • VRVP (Visible Range Volume Profile): look for high volume nodes (HVNs).
    • SVP (Session Volume Profile): focus on POC (Point of Control)—the price with the highest traded volume for that session.
  • Trade framework implied: after mapping zones/levels, the market allegedly revisits them repeatedly with an “automatic” rhythm, allowing the trader to “enter/exit on shifts.”

Tools / indicators mentioned

VRVP (Visible Range Volume Profile)

  • Row size setting: change 24 → 200 (thinner bars for precision).
  • Use: identify high volume nodes (volume spikes/areas with more traded volume at specific prices).

SVP (Session Volume Profile)

  • Row size setting: change 24 → 100.
  • Use: identify POC (black line in the session profile = single price with the most volume for that session).

Step-by-step methodology (as described)

  1. Add VRVP to the chart; set row size 24 → 200.
  2. Add SVP to the chart; set row size 24 → 100.
  3. On VRVP: mark high volume nodes (areas of heavy participation).
  4. On SVP: mark the Point of Control (POC) for the session.
  5. Find alignment:
    • A high volume node (VRVP) aligns with POC (SVP) in the same area.
    • Look for price rejection on both sides of that zone (visual confirmation of large orders absorbing/releasing).
  6. Define a tradeable zone width:
    • Mark zones 7 to 10 points wide (not a single line).
    • Center around the high volume node.
  7. Use an “anchor” level:
    • You don’t need to map every level; identify a strong anchor zone first.
    • Then extend “rhythm” up and down the price ladder to predict where price will be tested again.
  8. Predict “breathing pace” / checkpoint spacing (macro structure for zone placement):
    • For S&P: typical consolidation/next move magnitude cited as 20 to 30 points.
    • For NASDAQ: typical magnitude cited as 50 to 70 points.
  9. For additional levels:
    • Look 20–30 points above the anchor for multiple tests and rejections, then mark another 7–10 point zone.
    • Look 20–30 points below (and also above the upper level similarly) for repeated reactions.

Instruments / tickers / assets mentioned

  • S&P (implied S&P 500 index; no ticker provided)
  • NASDAQ (implied Nasdaq 100/Composite behavior; no ticker provided)
  • The text references “SNP” once (likely a transcription error for S&P).

Key numbers / explicit parameters

  • VRVP row size: 24 → 200
  • SVP row size: 24 → 100
  • Zone width: 7 to 10 points
  • Checkpoint spacing / typical move magnitude:
    • S&P: 20 to 30 points
    • NASDAQ: 50 to 70 points
  • Claim: once the anchor is set, levels can be “drawn once” and “work forever” (no quantitative performance metrics provided).

Recommendations / cautions (explicit)

Recommendation

  • Stop drawing levels purely from visual bounces.
  • Instead, mark zones where VRVP HVNs align with SVP POC, with evidence of rejection.

Caution (implicit)

  • Don’t make zones too narrow (single line) or too wide (loss of precision).

Missing risk controls

  • No risk controls are provided (e.g., stop-loss rules, position sizing, or invalidation criteria).

Disclosures / disclaimers

  • No explicit “not financial advice” disclaimer appears in the provided subtitles.

Presenters / sources

  • No names or external sources are mentioned.
  • The only credited party is the creator/trader speaking about “my students” and “my mentorship,” without a specific name.
