VPVR Indicator: How Volume Profile Visible Range Works and How to Trade It

  • VPVR Indicator: How Volume Profile Visible Range Works and How to Trade It

    1 August 2026 , Abe Cofnas

    The VPVR indicator, short for Volume Profile Visible Range, plots how much volume traded at each price level for the candles currently visible on your chart. It draws that data as a horizontal histogram down the side of the price pane, so instead of asking how much volume happened at ten o’clock, you are asking […]

  • cTrader vs MetaTrader: A Feature-by-Feature Comparison and How to Choose

    30 July 2026 , Abe Cofnas

    cTrader and MetaTrader are both professional-grade trading platforms, and there is no universal winner. The right one depends on three things: how you trade, whether you rely on automation, and which platforms your broker actually offers. cTrader leads on interface, automatic risk display, and Depth of Market; MetaTrader leads on the sheer size of its […]

Overtrading: The Silent Account Killer, Its Causes, and How to Stop It

  • Overtrading: The Silent Account Killer, Its Causes, and How to Stop It

    29 July 2026 , Abe Cofnas

    Overtrading is trading too frequently, or in positions too large for your plan and account, driven by emotion rather than a valid setup. It is more activity, not more profit: opening positions you cannot justify, holding them longer than the plan allows, and clicking because being flat feels wrong. The definition matters because the cure […]

  • Mobile Trading Setup: From Installing the App to Placing Your First Trade Safely

    27 July 2026 , Abe Cofnas

    A mobile trading setup is the combination of a broker account, a mobile platform such as MetaTrader 5, and the settings you configure around them: watchlists, alerts, default sizes, risk rules, and security. Mobile trading itself simply means buying and selling financial instruments from a smartphone or tablet, and the barrier to entry is genuinely […]

  • The Cumulative Delta (CVD) Indicator on TradingView: Setup, Reading, and Divergence

    26 July 2026 , Abe Cofnas

    The cumulative delta indicator, usually written CVD for cumulative volume delta, keeps a running total of buy volume minus sell volume, so you can see which side has been hitting the market aggressively rather than just where price ended up. When the total rises, buyers are lifting offers; when it falls, sellers are hitting bids. […]

  • Raw Spread vs Zero Spread Accounts: How They Differ and Which Costs Less

    26 July 2026 , Abe Cofnas

    Raw spread and zero spread accounts price the same trade in two different ways. A raw spread account passes you the market’s own bid-ask spread, floating and often near 0.0 pips in liquid hours, and charges a fixed commission per lot on top. A zero spread account fixes the spread at 0.0 on a list […]

  • The Ultimate Guide to the Best Fair Value Gap Indicator on TradingView

    26 July 2026 , Abe Cofnas

    A fair value gap indicator finds and draws price imbalances on your TradingView chart automatically: zones created when the market moved so fast in one direction, over a strict three-candle sequence, that a slice of prices never properly traded. The best FVG indicators on TradingView are free, open-source community scripts, and the difference between a […]

  • Sim Funded Accounts: What They Are, Where the Payouts Come From, and How to Tell

    23 July 2026 , Abe Cofnas

    A sim funded account is the stage after you pass a prop firm evaluation where you keep trading simulated capital in an environment built to mirror the live market, while the payouts you earn on your simulated profits are paid to you in real money. That single sentence contains the whole confusion: the capital is […]

  • The Consistency Rule in Prop Firms: How It Works, and How to Pass It

    23 July 2026 , Abe Cofnas

    The consistency rule is a prop-firm risk rule that caps how much of your total profit can come from your single best trading day. If your best day makes up more than a set percentage of everything you have earned, usually somewhere between 20% and 50%, the firm treats the result as luck rather than […]

  • Prop Firm Drawdown Types Explained: Intraday, EOD, Static, and the Lock Point

    21 July 2026 , Abe Cofnas

    In futures prop trading, the drawdown rule decides who keeps a funded account and who loses it, and the single most important detail is when that rule is measured. Two accounts can run the exact same trade, on the same day, and reach opposite outcomes: one breached, one intact. The difference is not the trade. […]
