As far as VWAP, I see potential of reversal of 2 STD..this way we may skew probabilities of stretched PA going the opposite way. (Circles indicate 2 SD).

When to enter on reversal, that is a question that only statistics can answer. I will run them this weekend. The rest is standard, smart MM and control of the MindFuck.

{quote} There you go..PA Candle action is a King. I am just referring to the convo on this thread earlier in the morning. I take nothing away from Blue and his vision on VWAP and Volume and OHLC Lines. Great teachings, perhaps someone can implement some of it in their trading. I do not agree with RickM also about Volume and the rest of what comes with it, but we all learn to live and respect each other, this is a normal trading discussion, and then there is this other moron that comes here...well, never mind.
I think it's called free speech provided we do not deliberately set out to ridicule or disrespect the opinions of others within the confines of the OP's thread objectives and rules.

Double top short at the then high of day with a take profit at the then value area high for 7.4 points, then a short at the failure to hold the value area high, take profit on trailing stop as price found buyers at the point of control. $1200+ profit for the big boys trading the big gold contract.

Thanks Blue! Let me know where to send you your free $5 Walmart gift card as a token of my gratitude!

Why not start your own thread. I would check it out. You can call it ‘Driven by Price Action’…. There you can post your trades, your rules of trades, your ideas etc…. If you do start one, just know that some would agree and some may disagree and be vocal about it, need thick skin to avoid being drawn into endless debates rather than moving on. You can incorporate ideas from other traders too.. like the famous kevincanuck would say ‘different ways to shave a beaver’ or something like that…

Doing my analysis overtime, just for you Blue...if we are to go with the trend, here are the good places to start attacking PA towards bullish trend. 5 Min TF Gold.

nah; no to womanizing, end up with a margin call, risk of ruin is high, I think his mindset and conscience is to avoid risk. Maybe it was ‘different ways to skin a cat’? I hope people are talking figuratively here….

Last post to Blue's thread for me until I'm a millionaire trader.

M30 Fixed bar long with entry forming at/above point of control after a brief "return to value" after an exciting night of bullish "price discovery" with a 2R target at/above the current value area high and high of day.

I am not at all suggesting that anyone tries to put all this together to make a Frankensystem. It is just that I have repeatedly noticed how well Stacey Burke's mantra of "Timings, Levels, Behavior of Price" line up with many different methods. Those methods with an edge tend to be in alignement with TLBoP, while those methods that tend to be net losers over time often are providing signals that would be in opposition to what basic TLBoP are showing.

Anywho ... good luck to all. vidvad out.

OK Here's the deal...

I was a complete arsehole on this forum for years... for what?
Taking personal jabs at countless members.. Was behind the scenes
in having many banned permanetly for running commercial shit behind the scenes.
BAck in the day when admin really watched that stuff.

THing is it ALWAYS distracted me from what I am here for and that has always been
to learn to share to teach with like minded traders.

I simply dont want any negative bullshit here... Ive done enough and had enough.

THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO TOSS VERBAL DARTS AT OTHERS.>>GO DO IT ELSEWHERE !!!
I DONT CARE WHO YOU ARE >>>IF YOU HAVE NOTHING GOOD TO SAY THEN SHUT THE FUCK UP.

POST CHARTS TALK TRADING....cats dogs squirrels raccoons birds etc and cookies and tea cool too!

OTHERWISE GTFO..........

Down the rabbit hole again. Just posting thoughts, this time from Tradingview (free version).
Apparently it has a built in vwap, profile as a drawing tool under 'forecasting and measurement tools' rather than installing an indicator.
Looking at different tools... probably try to simplify it down to vwap and maybe one other, but there are so many volume tools to try, on balance, profile, delta, footprint, bubbles, volume, even weis waves; each to their own.

What I was looking at this morning ES at 915am
My level of interest the green line...Maybe long maybe short..I dont know which until
the situation presents itself.

Its only two choices...two setups..
A) Price discovery continuation (Long)
B) Return to Value (Short)

There were alot of Levels in play and Im only showing them as they are important but it remains
how to trade them... I liek using Various VWAPS along with the Vol Profile to shine the way...

Of all these levels you see...I am mostly interested in the Close/Settlement... Mainly because that
represents huge volume normally... Joes open Pros Close... I digress....

Now without all the gobblygoop mess of lines....

Wheres the short setup...

Here at the BO and retest of the area of interest I outlined in green in prev post above.
(Above this area was also at 9:41 a good short aggressive trade off the Composite weekly Vol Pro)

What do we do once in a trade..We want to anchor VWAP to the Open and see who is in immediate control.
Follow the bouncing ball day in day out...

Massive Gold trade for those who Faded the VAH of the yesterdays Vol Profile
carried over into today.

Explanation on charts...

These are some of the most powerful levels IMO in daytrading...Knowing where Value is on
a daily and multi day basis.

Getting past bedtime but one more for good measure..

First a video from Trader Dale...He has some good "FREE" material on Vol Pro and VWAP.
A video he made today I saw earlier...its short basic and good...all what I have been discussing
he hits on....and his last VWAP "setup" ? example..

Inserted Video


Here's a good example from Gold today. Same idea.... Very powerful once you grasp.
Basically I have anchored VWAP to highest vol of day...spike..and its the BO of the VAL.
WHat this does is gives us realtime data of who is in control ? Will this heavy selling continue ?
Follow the bouncing ball of VWAP.. That is the benchmark
