Daily volume on EU seems a little weird, but there is a lack of demand as price fell. As long as tomorrow stays above the daily open, we have a bullish background.

H1 during Asia big increase in volume on a down bar and looking at daily chart the last 3 days have been trending with HHs/HLs. Not a text book perfect trade, but a good example of having multiple tools in your toolbox. Yesterday used a lot of VZA ...

Heya Macallik, You're right about 10-20% of setups are VSA textbook perfect, this is probably why a lot of people have a hard time explaining setups. In a past life I worked in telcomm, working on telephone switches and how things are suppose to ...

As Tom liked to say, "If you're writing a book, this is the trade you would show". Unfortunately I missed this trade because I was out to breakfast. Today's Asia session there was the AUD rate announcement and a bit of movement from that, because of ...

USDJPY long. Probably should've held the trade, but 40 pips in about 2 hours isn't a bad days work.

Have to admit though, other than last week, it's been pretty hard lose money going long on xxx/jpy.

Dude says it's company fault because they didnt catch him sooner in trading a market he wasn't allowed to trade... Yeah we gotta stop calling then smart money.

Just for the sake of discussion, I'm not sure it's that simple to say forex is the biggest market in the world. Sector rotation is a stock market concept, but I think it applies to whole markets as well. Money moves from one market to another. 2019 ...

UCAD on Monday might be interesting.. Highest volume bar on the lows and price broke above the high late Friday. Sunday could be a long setup if price comes down to test the mid point on narrow spreads and volume. The only thing is that there was ...

If 80% of breakouts fail what about the other 20%? Do they break out with big volatility and unlikely to return to the entry? If so, I'll take those. But maybe you mean trend traders and not breakout traders. And based on the comments on the JPY ...

Went to sleep during LO and my AJ long was stopped out. Picked up EJ in US though, was going to hold it over the weekend but closed it after I saw it was up 90+ pips. Just before the US session there was a mini shake out into the high ...

I'm just saying don't put too much stock into how many retails are long/short. The data is flawed, retail tends to close their winning positions quickly so that data really only shows stuburn traders who can't let their losses go.

Fib the interest rate bar, who woulda thought that price would continue along the same trend thats its been in for the last 4 days? Reading all the news stories, everyone guessing about if/when/where this intervention will occur instead of just ...

Go up? There was big buying on April 19th with daily making HHs/HLs for the last 4 days. With today solidy above the daily open. Trade what you see, not what think.

I didn't catch today's entry on EU, but classic VZA. SoS on the previous day's low, price pushes up and comes back to retest the 50%. I tried VZA a few years ago but gave up because I was fibbing the highest volume bar everyday rather than just big ...

Price wasn't going to break above the previous week's low on low volume. But to be fair, its hard to not make money going long on USD.

Anyone take the EU short today? Same setup as yesterday on UCad except we saw a lack of interest to the upside as price tried to rally above yesterday's mid point. This is a smaller position that I normally trade, Daily is still in a down trend with ...

UCad, Daily still making HHs and HLs. There was a little bit of a drop off in volume Friday, but when price bounced of Friday's midpoint buyers showed their hand. Still 6 hours left in the day, but today could potential close as a inside test which ...

Yeah it's annoying when people say background but don't define it, like they expect everyone to have the same skill set and experience. Or they get off of some ego trip with making people guess. A big part of the markets is that price doesn't ...

IMHO don't limit yourself to just one setup. If you took your car to a mechanic and all they had in their toolbox was a hammer, you would turn around and GTFO. Trading is the sameway, if all you have is a hammer then everything looks like a nail. In ...
