This is just a spike. But a nice one. My long term bias is still short until we see a retest of the support. If it was a trend reversal to long, I would expect a down bar shakeout/pin bar preferably on daily.

Great thread Mal. Very educative posts as usual.

Shamus, VSA trainer was to be given away for free, you mentioned that very clearly way long back. Everyone knows and understand that coding such a program is hard work but claiming it will be for free and then charging for it is not appropriate. You ...

Nicely explained mal. One question, for the no demand bar, should the volume be less than the average or would it count if its less than the previous two bars but overall high?

I think many have trouble learning VSA because its so different from other strategies. There are no snaky line crosses, no colorful buy sell dots and no hope for an EA. To add up to that one needs to understand market psychology, price action and ...

and mine

hmmm you made me realize that somehow I stopped looking at MTFs and traded only on 5min may be because its the path of least effort. Time to get a beer and practice... or may be coffee its 8.30 in the morning here On the positive note, this ...

I attended the TG free webinar today, during the webinar he mentioned he looked at a VSA thread here at FF and didn't think the thread was teaching it properly... wonder why would he say so..

Good mal just stick with this thread as we all need your input.

Oh ok, ind standoff is a parameter under "edit studies" once you load the TG plugin.

I am not sure what you mean by "not in right place" They sometimes hang around the extremes of the chart. I changed the setting of "ind standoff" to 0 and that fixed it.

First short trade of the morning 28 pips off the table. Lovely VSA in action today.

I cant check the charts very often during the day, so I take trades when I can check them. The two buy trades were taken as I thought there was strength coming in. But the two blue bars right before the third trade indicated that supply is strong so ...

Here are the three trades I took during my job breaks today (too many breaks ). The trades are based on VSA only and taken on mt4. I didnt have access to esignal at work so checked the Tradeguider signals later in the evening. Here are charts for ...

I am currently using the free demo which will expire on 26th. I think the offer is still around. Just write to them if interested. One can back test as well. There is a free webinar again this friday.

Ok I think I probably know little bit more about VSA now. Took 3 trades today stealing time from my job. Still a long way to go though. Thanks Malcolmb, HG, Shamus and everyone who contributes to this thread. VSA rocks............ totally image

The week just got better after reading your post Shamus thanks a lot. I am now getting highly impatient to try it.

There are a few versions around and that thread is inactive. Here is snap of ninjatrader VPA for EU to compare with Malcolmb's recent tradeguider post (#5319). Overall I think it picks some important moves. I am not very good in VSA yet and unable ...

Hey malcolmb, your posts makes VSA trading seem to be lot easier than it is for me

Here is the link. They say its beta only. url
