{quote} VSA mixed in with some OrderFlow (Aggression Bars) and a dash of Auction Market Theory concepts. VSA: Volume (activity), Range (spread), and Closing Price to determine the Supply/Demand dynamic in the market. OrderFlow- Aggression Bars : Volume, Range, Volatility,Velocity, Momentum, Trend, and OrderFlow to determine what side (buyers or sellers) is moving the market. Auction Market Theory: Concepts like Initiative Buying and Selling, Acceptance, Rejection, Unfair Highs and Lows, One-Time Framing. The last pic I posted pretty much sums it...

{quote} check out 2 BR's off of the VAH and VAL with trend alignment. 1 HR zone, 5 minute reversals for entry. Food for thought but this has been very successful for me.
what you mean by VAH and VAL?

Take the highest volume bar from yesterday - the high of that bar (VAH) and the low of that bar (VAL)

yeah, his journal is really helpful, did read all of that and saved many charts from that thread with comments. Would be nice if he would continue to write some good stuff in his journal as he had few more good things to share. i just was not familiar with that abbreviation you wrote. (but once you explained, i know what you are talking about).
I use VZA every day, and with VSA it is a really good way to trade, especially with futures volume for FX.

EU and GOLD: Flyn/Trump inside last hour bars HIGHEST VOLUME IN LAST HOUR since 2 months or even more than that.
Best bar to trade next week rather whole month.

Today I got really lucky. I traded off London Open and my TP was hit just before news sent EUR/USD skywards. Lucky me is not greedy and when not constantly monitoring his trades sets a fixed 2R TP ^^

Interesting.

I am lost in selecting platform for orderflow/footprint.

I want to keep using my current broker/platform for trading. and only use orderflow platform for analysis, looks like this is going to be whole new learning curve in terms of exchanges/datafeed etc. I am fine with reading orderflow but unable decide which platform/exchanges/datafeed to select and work with.

I Trade EU GU UJ GJ, Gold Oil and Indices.
