What is up bar and down bar??

A bar that closes higher than the previous bar is an up bar.

A bar that closes lower than the previous bar is a down bar.

rspence50 is right, go read the material on page 1, it is vital reading.

no break, no trade

Had to go out so missed it

But in hind sight, the first ND was not broken so market was saying it still had some demand. Went up till the demand was gone at the second UT.

enter short on the close of the down bar confirming the UT and the ND.

SL moved to 3571, still in trade.

What do you think?

From the weakness which I saw on GU from Friday after the break of the channel, I finally got an opportunity to enter today using VSA.

I'm +70 pips up and still in this trade. Using another discretionary method I expect GU to hit at least 1.51. This might take a couple of days though.

Nice trade, shorting GU looks like to be the clear play right now from a VSA point of view.

Nice.

Nope. Not at all. I had a plan and been waiting for this trade since Friday close after TL was broken. Although background showed weakness, but when you see an up-thrust it doesn't mean you just jump in, you need confirmation. Though in some instances up-thrusts can be used as a confirmation of a weak background as well.

Hi Islander,

Is this a regular occurance?

Can this be relied upon for trading?

Update
In my chart posted above, please check out the last few volume bars.

They're all yellow, indicating that they are less than the previous 2 but, in reality they aren't.

Does anyone have any idea whats going on? I haven't noticed this before.

I would say that it is a frequent occurance - for me its often like trading during Frankies Hour....http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

PS I reversed to short as soon as the rally finished....

It is

_RANGE_TRADER-9.08 Labais53

Which I have adapted myself however, it has been adapted for my specific screen size and it doesn't work as expected with yen pairs. I'm not sure why, still working on it.

You are welcome dl my version. But you may have to adjust for your screen. If you dont know how to do this, pm me and I'll talk you thru it.
