I like these squat bars, they say a lot.

If we take out the highs today (though I doubt that will happen today) we should expect ~1.3

Reverse H&S pattern on H1 if you zoom out.

Hey bud, check out the difference in our volume, my UH vol bar is not in the same place as your's (selling climax). This is an FXCM demo feed, would it be different if my live account was with them?

But more key IMO is that your demo high volume bar is 96K, while the other (live?) one is 623K! I'd submit it's purposeful manipulation by the (demo account) broker - clearly they take feeds from different liquidity providers, also giving differences in prices likely. I can't imagine it'd be technically difficult or draining in any way to provide the same feed, but brokers don't want to create level playing fields, do they?!

How cool would it be if we all had the same, accurate data?

My volume is different to yours. I show LESS volume on the EORM. Thats twice today mine has been different to someone elses!!
From past posts ive seen you have been using fxcm's platform on demo. Live data feed is almost always a bit different.

Nice trade mate. I closed this one before nipping up the range. Hit TP on GU nicely tho.

My FXCM volume is almost identical to your esignal which is relieving. I was begining to think I had a problem.

Didn't take the trade, brain not working. I noticed that quite often big(er) moves have such a setup like in the picture. High volume fades on some micro move and then there's an even lower volume up/down narrow spread bar in the direction the move is. So, this time it's an up bar. Is there anything in VSA that explains this or is it just something to ignore?

Tell me about it... I was in just below 1.2850, and stood through the news;
But then I had to leave home for a little hour, so I took profit at 1.2895.

Now I return and find this :nerd: ... and still pushing!

Better to let it settle now... going to shut off computer and do some gardening

It's been another good day today. It seems all the time I spend learning and practicing what I've learnt is finally paying off. I am finding it much easier to read the charts nowadays. Which means that I'm making far less bad trades.

I'm really pleased with my progress so far. It looks like my goal of trading full time is...........well, maybe not as close as I'd like but certainly not as far away as it used to be.

How is everyone else coming along?

I think it's a test of supply. It's not necessary an up bar, what matters is the close is above the middle.

Hi Comapip,

This is a very common phenomenon in the reversal areas. If you check out your charts at the reversals, you will find on many of them, that the first bar in our direction is on low volume. It is simply SM making sure that the weak holders have gone, and they wait a bit longer than they need to. It is covered in MTM somewhere. If I can find it I'll post you the page.

If the background has been read correctly, this low volume bar will be a polar bear in Hawaii.
