Manual VAH/VAL Levels
Manual VAH/VAL Levels is a utility indicator that lets traders manually display the Value Area High (VAH) and Value Area Low (VAL) from the prior trading day, based on a Fixed Range Volume Profile tool.
This script is designed to:
Draw horizontal lines at the manually input VAH and VAL levels
Label each line with the corresponding price, aligned clearly to the right of the chart
Display levels only during the regular trading session for focused market context
Maintain a clean chart appearance with transparent label backgrounds
💡 How to Use:
Apply TradingView's Fixed Range Volume Profile tool to the prior day's session
Manually enter the VAH and VAL values into the script settings
The script will draw and label these levels dynamically during the NY market session
This tool is ideal for:
Traders using volume-based key levels for intraday decision-making
Contextualizing price action near areas of prior day value
Confluence analysis when paired with opening range, CVD, or breakout systems
