We had a bullish close but the next candle closed lower than the bearish candle before the bullish one.

The value area for today is at 1.32514

The first touch of this level is usually a bounce (not a break).

{quote} when you write "value area" you mean the poc of that value area? Correct? Anyhow, GB continued its action downside after acceptation below old GB December low 3224 and preUS managed to test 31415 GB October inside month high. Note that the most significant level around here for upcoming Pit session is Pit October inside month high at 31765: acceptation below it can lead us to a full correction of October range. Rejection below it can mean full correction upside. If acceptation below 31765, next visible and possible targets are 3106...
Now, all this action is a short covering of inventories Tokyo and GB sessions action downside. The level I stressed (31765) is instead a structural one. All what you saw after October close is based upon it: we had an attempted rally above inside month balance. The top of that balance is 31765 (for pit sessions) while for GB sessions is 3150.

So price action above it, means that the attempted rally above monthly balance is not concluded yet. Acceptation below such level can mean the opposite: back into October balance and eventually back to October low.

Now I will watch 1.31652 or 1.3125 to take profit

Reason for the sell was a simple bounce from today's value area.

A value area is (as the word says) an area of price, not a level. If you speak about a price (given by some sort of volume calculation) you may speak of VPOC (instead of POC). A POC is the Point Of Control of a certain value area. A V POC is a Volume Point Of Control for a given area.

And by the way there is a dedicated thread to such kind of analysis. Really nothing against it but this is not the place for it. This thread is dedicated to a different method to organize market generated information, based upon Jim Dalton teachings.

If I call it Volume Point Of Control, it will be mis-leading because I do not use market profile.

I created my own system where I re-adjust price by volume. So I call it VAP (Volume Adjusted Price).

I read your notes because you do something similar even though we call them by different names.

I can stop posting if it makes you feel uncomfortable.

Again, it can also be as 2+2=4 like 1+1+2=4. We can obtain the same results with different approaches: nothing bad into this. But I repeat it here: we are using here different methodologies to analyze and organize market provided information. And this thread is dedicated to the way Jim Dalton uses to do such work of analysis.

Example: do you agree upon the simple fact that the close 32595 of an entire year (in this case 2019) is a fundamental data that any trader in the world will use? I think yes. You see price coming upside for almost 120 pips, then it stopped 4 pips below such level. So what? Is this stop meaningful? Yes it is. Then sell. And place your stops above it somewhere. If you are right you are going to profit as the next visible important level downside is Gen month unch 3209. If not you are going to lose a little.
This is a way to analyze market action. And is the way used in this thread.

Absolutely not. You are gentle and polite and you are welcome. There's no problem to express different strategies and different approaches. Especially if they are related somehow to the main theme of this thread. I only suggest to do a clear and substantial explanation of your methodology in a dedicated post (or more than one if you need more space) in order to let other members to understand your data and eventually integrate them in their (our) analysis.
The problem is that those who are following this thread, me included, have no idea whats so ever of your personal approach and consequently we cannot appreciate what you are writing.
Use this week end, if you like and if you have time, to explain your method to us.

Note GB week close at 3194 exactly at 2019 GB close level (also Jan 2020 close): we are almost 200 pips above that level.

While 2019 GB high is at 34295: so current price action is above last year close (3194) and slightly below last year high. Including obviously 2016 Brexit low 3227 and current GB highest close 34955 I think these are the main psychological levels of these last days of 2020 before Brexit "deal"

So, here's the opportunity: from inside C period attempted rally (2019 GB re tested). Above we got 3466, 3483, 34935 and 34955. But without acceptation above GB 2019 high 34295, back to the mean and possible filling of triple pass GB gap 33675-3377
