lol.... Malcomb even the 1 won't make as much as you

I am spending less time in markets last 2 weeks , trying to get my life back... was over trading / getting to addicted to trading and started making silly mistakes( 10 hours per day in market was getting silly) ... took a 5% loss one week.

madeup for that since .. but hitting market 2-3 hour per day tops 50 pip. I did manage to stay in a short this morning and close 10 pip off bottom before up move and have some time this evening to have a look what is going on in Asia

I hope your trading is going well

I am mad as hell ....

I brought all these wonderful tools and shared them ...volume vsa , rsx, market profile , mml and how to bring them all together

Now there are a bunch of losers on forex factory claiming what I have shared to be thier knowledge , even started their own threads ... lets keep some things quiet and between us ... like market profile. We have to keep an edge somewhere

It would almost be nice to have a few of the better traders ( like you , me shamus , sun , jitu , etc ......

Malcolmb,

Don't think you have gone un-noticed.

You're the only reason I am here (VSA). I have paid particular attention to your posts referencing VSA over many months at the GU and GJ threads.

Elsewhere, I have found more confusion than help with all the choices of trading systems available, each with their own clutter of indicators. I like the concept that "less is more" and learning the "why" and "when" is critical in successful forex trading. Candlesticks and volume. That appeals to me. I studied candlesticks patterns 10 years ago in the stock market.

Keeping this protected and secure and holding an edge?

No worries. As you said, if given to 10 traders, this 'secret' will not produce wealth unless it is received, studied and applied in earnest. On first observation, VSA in not as simple as it appears and is hardly mindless and mechanical. In my view, interpreting the relationships between something on the surface as simple as HLC and Vol is not as easy as it seems.

The attraction of indicators to do the thinking for you will keep many away as they may feel helplessness having to think and analyze for themselves.

I may find this liberating... if I too am will to pay the price.

Thanks for all you do,

Dr. D.

They look fine Sony. My values are slightly different as I have my start time as Tokyo open which I consider to be the start of a new Forex day. They exact values are not important in my view. Its the S&R levels near them that are.

Great to hear this, malcolmb14.
U, all of us, deserve a break from time to time.

Seriously, doing stuff with your labs (dogs) would immensely help in your relaxation.

Malcomb14 stop eating lemons your starting to sound bitter. I thought this was a sharing community? I thought this was for traders to network and share ideas and learn from one another? Free loaders? Did it occur to you that some of stay quiet because we are not well versed in vsa and have nothing to contribute yet? Most of us are still learning. Ive read MTM twice and still dont have it down 100%. The only person who has given me the time of day here is Shamus. You never answered my PM? Neither did any of the other people i PM about vsa. Trying my hardest to learn over here trading atleast 10 hours each day and reading constantly. I would love to contribute but at this point in time what is it exactly do i have to offer?

I have been looking at ForexFlash's TickSeparateVolume indicator, is the best with respect volume data. Does anyone has the MTF version to share with me? Or may ForexFlash help to create one.


ForexFlash, thanks for the indicator.

Good post A-game,

I have always been told: If you want to learn something that someone else has to offer, follow them around, listen to everything they have to say and learn as much as you can. Then, do what they do. I was also told to keep my mouth shut until I had something worth offering. I have followed this rule in many instances and it works.

It's difficult to get past the last part as you might not know where to start speaking up, what to say, or you might not even be able to figure out what your looking at on the charts.

The key to learning VSA really is to keep reading MTM, The Undeclared secrets that Drive the Stock Market and the reference materials on the first post (Thank you Shamus for putting this together). Take one term like 'No Demand', go back in your charts and find it over and over again, see how it appears. Once you think you have a good grasp, takes notes and move on to the next term. Don't forget to read the books, you must understand what to do or not to do when you see it appear.

By the way Malcomb14, you are doing a fantastic job with your posts in the thread and comments in the chat room. Thank you for your effort!
Learning is the #2 fundamental in life, taking action is #1!
