Rejection Setup ​

This article is not your typical relationship rejection we are learning about markets rejection of higher or lower prices setup but with Volume Profile.

Rejection Setup Definition ​

  • This setup is based on finding a very strong rejection of either higher or lower prices and applying Flexible Volume Profile to it.
  • The key to trading this setup successfully is identifying the strong rejection in the chart.
  • Sometimes, the strong rejection looks like a strong pin-bar created at a swing point, but sometimes, it is not so clear, and there are other Rejection candles.
  • We don’t care what candle pattern is bcoz, the candles changes with the time-frame.
  • What matters the most is that the rejection is strong and that the aggressiveness within it is evident.

Basically Spot Rejection of Higher or Lower Prices.

Rejection of Higher Price

  • We look for buying activity followed by sudden price reversal and a consequent strong selling activity.
  • When there is a strong price reversal, we get the information that one side of the market became very aggressive and strongly rejected some price level.
  • We are interested in the place where the heaviest volumes within the rejection were added to the market
  • Not good in major Uptrend.
  • Best results in Sideways and Downtrend market.
