Hello, I want to swing trade the S&P using ProFunds ETFs. I use Investor/RT for volume profiling and I have good resources for daytrading the ES, but not swing trading a less risky vehicle. Does anyone swing trade the S&P or other market indicies using volume profiling? Thanks! Ed

Hi Ed,

A lot of members on NexusFi do use VP in their trading (especially swing trading the ES), although I personally do not. Most if not all of the VP discussion is within the Elite Section, so you will have to make the call if the membership is worth the cost. I'm not trying to plug the membership, just providing an honest answer. Hope this helps.

Best,
James

FT is great. I think he's more applicable to daytraders, however, I do watch his vids daily.

Can you scale his methods up to higher t/f's?

I don't swing trade the S&P. However I do learn to daytrade the ES using FT's volume profile method and upscaling it to swing trade on spot FX

I'm trying to do so. He mostly focuses on intraday, but there is some L/T aspect.
