Wow. The trader who fears volatility; fears profit. It's been an interesting couple of days in the Euro. I want to start with Thursday, then jump back to Wednesday and then end on Friday (today).
Amazing post as always

euro traders ... euro getting a sequential trade setup on 30 min prior to news .... lets see how this goes.

For me she is not tradeable till above 1.1440 as this is the open range low and a pivot for day.

Potential target to upside 1.1480 / 1.5000

No trading before news lads

Gold

We saw an up move into 1227 yesterday hit by supply .. the lower of the red lines is today's open range low 1222 area .

We just saw volume vanish on two 15 min up bars just above the open range low.

Expecting move to down side with days low around 1210.. lets see how this unfolds

Nice to see you posting again. I started reading your thread a few months ago and thought it was basically dead. Hope to see it come back to life!

I know enough about VSA to get myself into trouble, but maybe that will change soon.

Been bearish on NZDUSD since 7 July and that high volume upthrust, there is massive volume on 12 July but I think that is because of a stop hunt for the BE orders from the 7 July UT? Trying another short I guess.

You would achieve better results if you wait for the trend to change insteasted of trying to catch tops like this. It can work sometimes, but you probably gonna be killed in the most of the times

Would you consider the trend down on daily? Hulls is red.

Or does the trend have to be down on the entry TF as well?

I was hoping to get a little push from FOMC, guess I'm going to sit on this trade for a day. Moved up my TP to 1.1485, nice little 5:1 trade if it works out.

I dont use hulls but ye if it's red it's a down trend.. I usually tend to wait for trend alignment at different time frames

Devnon,

I understand your rational for taking the trade. A setup like this works very well with stocks. However, with forex it's more complicated than that. VSA still works with forex. It's just more complicated. Attached is a 1 hour chart of euro futures. It's almost identical to forex chart of eurusd except that it shows real volume instead of tick volume.

On this chart the 1st arrow bar had the highest volume of the day. It closed off the high, showing selling pressure. The 2nd arrow bar had the highest volume of the next day and it's a down bar closed well below the low of the 1st arrow bar. That's a huge sign of weakness. And the next day during Asia session price pulled back and then collapsed again and then that 3rd arrow bar occurred. There was definitely sign of strength on this bar. However, with strong bearishness overhead demonstrated in the previous two days, it's for sure there would be a fierce battle between the bulls and bears and it's unclear which side would win.

As it turned out, as of now price is still pretty much where it was when you made that entry. With forx, background analysis based on VSA principles is extremely important.
