Fixed Range Volume Profile (FRVP) – FX Replay Guide

The FRVP in FX Replay is a powerful volume visualization tool that maps where volume occurred within a selected time range. It helps uncover true support/resistance, liquidity zones, and reaction points—perfect for building high-confluence trade plans during backtesting.

How to Use It in FX Replay

Activate FRVP:

  • Use the Fixed Range Volume Profile drawing tool.
  • Click and drag to define your range (e.g., from NY Open to end of session).
  • FX Replay will display:
    • POC (Point of Control): highest volume node.
    • Volume bars at each price level.
    • Value Area (usually 70% of total volume).
    • HVNs (High Volume Nodes) and LVNs (Low Volume Nodes).

Analyze the Profile:

  • POC = Most accepted price → strong magnet for retests or reversals.
  • HVN = Volume bulge = strong support/resistance → price often consolidates or bounces here.
  • LVN = Volume gap → price may slice through quickly (good for breakout plays).

Trading Applications:

Bounce Setup:

  • Price retraces into POC or HVN → watch for entry confirmation.

Breakout Setup:

  • Price breaks through LVN → target next HVN or POC for exit.

Stop Placement:

  • Longs: Place stops below HVNs.
  • Shorts: Place stops above HVNs.

Session Integration:

Use FRVP on key intraday windows:

  • London Session
  • New York Session
  • Asia range

This reveals how volume redistributes across sessions—great for pinpointing when trends may initiate or stall.

Pro Tip:

In FX Replay, use FRVP as a location-based confluence tool:

Combine it with:

  • SMMA for trend context
  • VWAP for bias filtering
  • Liquidity zones for timing

Tag trades in your journal like:

  • “HVN bounce entry”
  • “LVN breakout to next node”
  • “POC flip and retest”

This builds structure-driven consistency, not guesswork.
