First post here and first time trying to add a bit of volume analaysis into my trading (read that master the market over the weekend). Gold earlier, saw a low volume on final up bar (also rejection coming into weekly average), then a second rejection without anymore buying volume.....went short. No idea if thats completely wrong....but first crack!

Great book. Volume/VSA can definitely add another dimension to your trading, but as with anything in this racket, it can be subjective... you've already got a solid foundation, it's quite useful to lean your analysis against and add weight to your decisions.

I've been playing with H4 trigger numbers.

Clear distribution area at the top and price has been rejecting the close of high volume bars on the way down.

Hi all,

today is maybe interesting day to trade, some people would let it go and be on the sideline because of Brexit decision around the corner. But let see what the chart will tell us, this is maybe my trading plan for today.

GU : it looks like today we will see retracement day as we saw in the last couple days a lot of upmovement but I think this is only temporary and next week we will see the continuation of the upmovement. It is possible that today we will see 1.2750 as the 1. target and 1.2660 as the 2. target.

Gold : I would like to see a continuation of the upmovement as 1. target 1498 and 2.target 1500

beware guys, I could be wrong as always ...

I was a bit premature on this one (not the first time for that ).

The GOAT (AKA Malcomb) has waxed almost poetically about the Opening Range (I like to use the Market Profile term, the Initial Balance (IB).

The Market gave us a nice BreakOut of the IB (H) on a Level 2 Buying Aggression (Climber) bar. One could simply jump in on the close of this bar, or wait for the Test that occurred two intervals later. When the BreakOut occurs on either Level 2 or Level 3 AGGRESSION, I jump.

I tried thinking about baseball, but I blew it even before the IB was set. But there were goods reasons. The Market started the day with a 2 Bar Reversal composed of a Level 3 Selling Aggression (Drifter) bar followed by a Level 3 Buying Aggression (Climber) bar. Said Climber formed the first High Volume Zone of the day. Price did not trade in the Zone. However, there was a NS as price traded back towards the HVZ (H) (not shown, but you can see the high of the Climber). The NS was confirmed on the next interval with an UP close on the next bar, which turned out to be a Level 2 Buying Aggression (Climber) bar. This is a classic Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) Trigger Number entry set-up. All the additional requirements were also present: Chart Modes I & II were GREEN and price was above both Balance Point Line (BPL) and the Trend Bias Line (TBL). In other words, this was a SHARP SHOOTER entry.

"Being right and sitting tight, that's where all the money is". Jesse Livermore

I do nothing well in trading, but sitting tight is something I do the least poorly. I trailed my stop using the AGGRESSION bars which allowed me to stay in the trade longer than I would have otherwise done.

I think it was back in June that I was bullish on AJ because of the massive shakeout from Dec 2018. I tried a few longs which they got stopped out.

AJ still looks very bullish, the lows of the Dec 2018 shakeout was tested and price has come up and made an abc wave pattern. Going to try and see if I can get a long term buy position to stick, if it does should be a really nice run up.
