Hey guys, haven't been updating much this week it's been very hectic for me.

I thought that I'd have a chance to place some active trades but I only did one which was a loss on cable.

This is shaping up to be a terrible week, getting slaughtered with 0/6 so far.

As has been mentioned everywhere on FF recently (including recently on here by dragan) it is a dangerous time to trade being close to the end of the year.

I still have a bunch of orders including an EU long that is 8 pips below price right now. I think I may sit on the sidelines...

I am waiting for a bit. Last night looked like a disaster waiting to happen.

I use December to update my trading plan and things like that....Oh and get ready for taxes

I heard mixed views abt VSA. This thread is abt Seiden's S&D approach. I understand he doesn't use VSA. On the other hand, this VSA thing seems to have been exploited by some parties for commercial gains.

Hey CP

Just wanted to say that my view on VSA is that if you actually learn VSA you will understand each move on the chart. Lots of people go to VSA trying to find a signal spitting system and are unwilling to learn properly. VSA is like a language and it takes time to learn verbs and nouns, then you can learn sentences, phrases, and grammar etc. All of this has to happen before you can listen to a native speaker (not saying I'm fluent in VSA but I can find the bathroom and order a beer)

I am waiting for a bit.

Me too.

Ended the week 1/7. Did use the same position size on them all and got 1:3 on my only win, which made this my first unprofitable week so far. I think I may not risk taking any positions next week.

I'd be interested to hear views about next week.

Hey dragan MTM by Tom W is my favorite trading book, it takes a couple of reads. I also love Jesse's book too.

whats ur trading method?

1) Identify trend on 4h
2) Use 15m/5m to find entries with trend

(in the case of an uptrend)

a) Buy at demand/support
b) Entries are based on the following sequence:

i) Buying comes in as price heads to support/demand
ii) Wait for shake out to be confirmed
iii) Enter long during/after a successful test of supply

u profitable?

I'm tellin you man just read MTM.

Here are some vids from TW himself, and his dudes.

I'd recommend the second video, TW lays down the few key VSA ideas and that's all I needed to profitably trade with volume and price. It's different for everybody.

Definitely MTM. Although those 15 minutes you mentioned are really all you need.

Simple is good. When you combine VSA with these levels you can get a pretty high win rate.

No trades for now dude. I'm thinking about not taking any positions until the new year, but I do have one order in the euro demand area I think.

I like to isolate myself from the opinions of others regarding the direction of a move while I'm in a position. My whole style these days involves separating myself during that time period anyway, and I've been really happy with the consistency.

Do you make trading decisions based off of what is being posted by people online?
