Session Volume Profile SMC shows you where the market actually traded - not just where price went. For every session (Day, Week or Month) it builds a horizontal volume profile directly on your chart, revealing the price levels that attracted the most activity and that price tends to respect later.
Most charts only show price. Volume Profile adds the missing dimension: how much was traded at each price. This indicator turns that into a clean, session-based read and layers a Smart Money Concepts (SMC) market-structure view on top, so volume and structure are visible in a single tool.
What it draws
For each session the indicator plots the full volume profile with the POC (Point of Control - the most traded price), the VAH and VAL (Value Area High and Low) and a shaded Value Area that holds the bulk of the session's volume. When a session closes, its POC, VAH and VAL are projected into the next session, where they frequently act as support and resistance - the levels left behind by order flow.
Volume and market structure in one view
On top of the profile, the indicator labels the market structure - Higher Highs, Higher Lows, Lower Highs and Lower Lows (HH / HL / LH / LL) - and tracks the break levels (Break of Structure). Levels that price has not broken yet are shown as dotted lines; levels already broken by a candle close are kept on the chart as solid lines. Reading a reaction at a previous POC together with a structure break gives context that price alone cannot.
Key features
Attach the indicator to any chart and symbol - the session profiles, levels, structure and dashboard appear immediately. Everything is configurable, and the defaults are ready to use.
Note
Educational and analytical tool. It does not place trades and does not send buy or sell signals. Trading involves risk; the past behaviour of any level does not guarantee future results.
