Is this Distribution?

Serious down move followed by a sharp markup then a range with Higher volumes at the peaks, lower volumes at the troughs.

Not really sure. What do you guys think?

I'd say accumulation....
Markup...pause with high vol on the resistance...lower vol on the down move
Ready to take off above 91...targeting 93 for me

Hey thanks for that. I'm going to ask a couple of questions tho if you don't mind (just to help me understand whats going on).

If accumulation (buying by SM) is going on, why are they buying at the higher prices instead of the lower prices?

Surely they should be buying at the bottom which will drive the price up a little at which point, they stop buying and let the price come back down.........and start again.

Thanks I got that much

If there's anyone who thinks they understand whats going on with this chart I'd REALLY appreciate an explaination. If you don't have time to do this, then just let me know if my diagnosis is correct will do.

Kuro, your explaination would be most welcome.

Thanks

Intel,

I decided last week that if i wanted to learn VSA then i must invest some dosh as well as time, so, i signed up for VSAclub and i`m currentley studying everything there, this forum is great for starters but if i want to be succesful in the long term then i must learn from the people who know.

From what i`ve seen here there are a couple of people who really know their stuff, but the majoraty do not...myself included.

I understand your decision, probably the right thing to do. Maybe in the future I will do same......just not yet. Have you bought TG?

I have otped for a structured approach to learning utilizing all of the information I can find. I am currantly on the accumulation/distribution phases. I used to think they were fairly srtaight forward, but now I'm not so sure.

not really upthrusts there. upthrust usually are in areas of the highs and often take out the recent high. Look where that trade was taken. Above that consolidation, there is no room for that trade to go. It did exactly what it should have done.

Starting at the wide spread up bar(wsub) on high volume at 0745. This is your initial mark up bar, followed by a WSUB closing in the middleish on very high volume. This bar has bounced off the 122.55 resistance area and is showing weakness. Confirmed by the next bar closing down(this is NOT an UT, it is a solid down bar).

The next bar is an UT style bar but it does not rise into fresh ground(meaning higher high than the immediate background) therefore it is NOT an UT.

The down bar at the peak, 13 bars to the right of your entry bar is a valid UT(we would like it to rise above the previous peak for a better indication). Confirmed by the next bar closing down (maybe a good entry at this bar close). See the difference?


As a general rule you should not enter on the first sign of weakness. See the weakness in the background then wait for the weakness indications and make sure they are confirmed BEFORE entering.

Well i'm new to it as well but i'll explain my view on it

I can't really say they are buying high but high vol next to a resistance is like they want to break it....then lower on on the upmove to load again ...then it goes up again with vol to try to break the resistance

That's the way i see it...maybe a vsa pro can tell more about it

thanks

Thanks for your readings on that chart,

It is very hard for me to differentiate between trend reversals and trend continuation after an HVHS up bar?, Do you guys see for anything which can differentiate between Reversal and continuation based on volume?
