50% trade nothing fancy..sometimes they fail..sometimes scratch....sometimes run like the dickens..
sometimes a stress free 100ticks... But I will always take them when they present.

Sort of like a box of chocolates

Nasdaq where I am settling on the idea of using basic vwap in conjunction with Roadmad. Note ORB and "Mebobs" also rule ok today.
Simpler the better for me since I am not as smart as many here.

Looks good to me Mr T !
Nothing wrong with simpler on the charts... Easy to get carried away adding this and that.

As they say Less is More !

Btw I'm hankering for a cookie personally lol

Blue, I tried, HLCO lines weekly, daily and VWAP and .....drumroll ...it is just not my cup of tea. I like to measure momentum in my own way, get in into the daily trend and control Mindfuck(circled) until TP reached using MM techniques, here is Dow Futures TF 3 Min...TP reached.

Round Numbers
Tokyo 24500, London 24600, New York High 24750 Todays range 95% of ADR

Coincidence ?

Less is definitely More

@Bluesteele
There were some really good traders on MoneyTec in the mid/late 2000s.
Indeed, all markets will still be here tomorrow, it's just volatility which moves from one to the other over time: I'm sure you remember frequent 200/400 EurUsd moves on NFP Fridays. Now, most FX pairs barely feel like worth trading, they're so anaemic compared to Indices.
I enjoy reading your posts and Chocolate is nice

Cheers Olivier !!!

Thank you so much ! You don't hear Moneytec too often lol!!

My first currency was EU but quickly gravitated to the Dragon GJ lol....

Think I was using a 21/75/200 ma to gauge momentum etc...
Heck of a time back then

Really appreciate your feedback ...

All the best

Cheers Kev, you post interesting stuff as always.

For any MT4 based traders I have found after a search this copywrighted and malware free VWAP indi that could be used for TESTING

No trading yet imo till a trader understands inherent stengths and maybe weaknesses of the different "sessions"

Because of where I live Asia is my predominant trade session along with the the pre Franky-London leadups

While the more volatile and therefore more potential profit line is in New York when I am fast asleep


(remove the mt4 indi if you wish Kev, it has no std dev bands but has the day, week & month lines)

all the best, great thread

Thx Pete !!! Appreciate that
Forgetting about data differences etc.. would be cool to compare say XAU/USD with Gold futures and the corresponding VWAPs...

A side project for me I think
How different is it ? How close is it...etc .. enquiring minds want to know lol...

Cheers pal

Excellent Kev, that would clear it up for many traders I reckon.
I dont have access to real volume (futures data) as I only trade mt4 currency pairs by choice, which just use activity based tick data and not real volume.
So a review of both, side by side, would be great to know the differences.

Blue, what are you showing in the red circles, that PA is stuck at Low/High/Center of VWAP? Ok, so it is stuck now at the high of VWAP and probabilities that PA will reverse and go down? So, as an example you are preparing to short Gold and VWAP is just one of the confluences to make that decision?

Well I put up the vwap chart to overlay Roadmap. Scalps were helped by looking at vwap lines and being alert to get in or out above central vwap line targeting deviation lines that were in line to Roadmap. Work continues but I am simplifying things to be subordinate to Roadmap which reduces the numbers of trades where correlation is absent but that may be a good thing?
