Trading Breakouts with Market Profile Confirmation for Indian Markets

Breakouts are powerful trading opportunities, but most fail. Market Profile helps you identify the real breakouts from the false ones using Value Area and POC, dramatically improving your success rate on Indian exchanges.

Why Most Breakouts Fail

The Problem

Traditional breakout trading:

  • No confirmation: Just price movement
  • False breakouts: Most don’t follow through

  • Poor exits: Don’t know when to exit

The Solution

Market Profile confirmation:

  • Volume confirmation: Real interest
  • Delta confirmation: Buying/selling pressure
  • Depth confirmation: Orders behind move
  • True breakouts: High probability
