Previous Day Volume Profile
Learn Previous Day Volume Profile in plain language, then try the free decision game and chart course.
Quick answer
A previous-day volume profile shows where simulated trading activity was concentrated. POC marks the highest-volume price; the value area describes a selected share of activity. These are reference areas, not automatic entries.
- Locate the POC and value-area edges, then observe how today’s price responds. Distinguish a rejection from time spent trading beyond a level.
- The setup is a possibility, not a prediction.
- All games and written lessons are free.

What would you decide?
Today opens outside yesterday’s value area. Price may return toward value or build acceptance outside it. Yesterday’s map does not settle which will happen.
Your practice mission
Locate the POC and value-area edges, then observe how today’s price responds. Distinguish a rejection from time spent trading beyond a level.
Try a five-question Decision Arcade warm-up, then play a chart level. Review the explanation and replay before trying again. Progress and XP describe game practice, not live-trading readiness.
