HVN identification, test rates, and effectiveness as dynamic S/R
High Volume Nodes (HVNs) are price levels where heavy volume was traded. They represent price acceptance — participants agreed that this price was fair value. When price returns to an HVN, it tends to slow down and consolidate because the prior volume acts as a cushion.
Use HVNs as entry zones for mean reversion trades. When price drops into an HVN from above, look for buying opportunities with stops below the HVN. Expect price to consolidate and potentially reverse. If the HVN breaks, it often leads to acceleration toward the next HVN.
| Metric | Description | How to Use |
|---|---|---|
| HVN Identification | Automatically detected high-volume price levels from the volume profile | Mark these levels on your chart as potential S/R zones |
| Test Rate | How often price returns to retest each HVN after leaving | Prioritize HVNs with high retest rates for trade entries |
| Respect Rate | Percentage of tests where price bounces vs breaks through | Filter for HVNs with >65% respect rate for mean reversion setups |
| Multi-Session HVNs | Levels that appear as HVNs across multiple sessions | These are the strongest levels — use for higher-conviction trades |
