The market leaves traces. VOLANTIS trades them.
Every price move leaves behind a Volume Profile — a map of where buyers and sellers were active, and where they were absent. Low Volume Nodes (LVN) are the gaps in that map: price levels where almost no trading occurred. When price returns to these zones, it tends to react sharply and with momentum.
VOLANTIS was built around one idea: find those gaps on Gold, wait for the rejection, and trade it — automatically, consistently, and with precision.
── WHAT MAKES VOLANTIS DIFFERENT ──
Most EAs use indicators. VOLANTIS reads market structure.
Instead of chasing Moving Averages or RSI crossovers, VOLANTIS calculates a live Volume Profile on M15, identifies the exact price levels where market participants were absent, scores them with a proprietary 0–100 Relevance Score, and waits for price to return and reject. No lag. No repaint. No guessing.
── HOW IT WORKS ───
VOLANTIS uses a three-timeframe architecture:
H1 — DIRECTIONAL BIAS The EMA 50/200 on H1 determines the higher timeframe direction. VOLANTIS only takes trades aligned with the H1 trend — no fighting the market.
M15 — ZONE DETECTION & SCORING The Volume Profile is calculated on M15 using a rolling lookback window. Each LVN zone receives a Relevance Score (0–100) based on: → Proximity to Value Area High / Value Area Low → Distance from Point of Control → Alignment with swing highs and lows → Available travel space to the next High Volume Node Only zones that meet the minimum score threshold are considered.
M5 — ENTRY TRIGGER VOLANTIS waits for a confirmed rejection candle at the LVN zone, followed by a failed retest on M5 within a defined time window. If the retest does not materialise in time, the signal expires. No chasing. No late entries. No compromise.

── RECOMMENDED SETUP ──
Symbol : XAUUSD

minimum recommended Leverage : 1:100 to 1:500
Broker : Low-spread ECN or STP
.set file : VOLANTIS_Balanced.set
── IMPORTANT NOTES ──
Balanced and Conservative are Long-Only configurations. This is by design — the Short side underperforms during the current structural Gold uptrend. The Active .set enables both directions for traders who prefer a full bidirectional approach.
VOLANTIS trades 3–7 setups per month on the Balanced configuration. It is a quality-over-quantity system. It waits for the right setup — it does not force trades to keep statistics looking active.
