Advanced GET Studies - GET Trade Profile
Overview
The GET Trade Profile is a proprietary study developed by Tom Joseph that can indicate areas of previous buying and selling and provide potential support and resistance levels. The study works well on Stocks as well as Futures. The GET Trade Profile study can be used on any time frame. The software scans the data and finds levels where the market started significant Buy or Sell swings in the past. These levels are categorized based on the amount of volume involved and the actual price movement. For stocks, actual volume is used; for futures, the tick volume is used.

The study works well on Stocks as well as Futures. The GET Trade Profile study can be used on any time frame. The software scans the data and finds levels where the market started significant Buy or Sell swings in the past. These levels are categorized based on the amount of volume involved and the actual price movement. For stocks, actual volume is used; for futures, the tick volume is used.
Once these levels are identified, the trader can monitor the price reaction when these levels are tested again. As a trader, you should focus on the levels that are thick (high volume) and/or long (large price move). When prices trade to a previous Sell level, you would look for selling to continue. Likewise, when prices are near a previous Buy level, you would look for buying to continue.
If the prices fail to hold at previous Sell levels, then the previous Sell level could become support and create a base for further rallies. Likewise, if prices fail to hold at previous Buy levels, then the previous Buy level could become resistance and create a base for further declines.
