Hi there!
I'm following your thread for a while. I like it! Found it on the home-page by change! At first I did not understand your methot. I seemed to see no difference in the volumes. But now I'm around page 100 in the book and I it's getting more interesting every page =)
I'm retrading the market paying attention to candles and VSA at the moment. Do you know VHandstrade? Its an EA who allows replaying the market fast-forward.
It looks something like this:
I marked a bearish candle. It was reversed in the next session. Isn't it the same actually on GU? Market responded bearish to the news but it was reversed. Isn't that a sign of strengt?

thanks Intel,
I am already in progress with reading MTM and all I was able to find
I have another question: is here anybody who uses VSA with mid/long term trading rather than intraday? I am technical analyst and I do not trade intraday and as for now I can see that volume spread seems very, very interesting tool to combine with TA. thanks again
What I have found (and others may dissagree) is that which ever TF you use VSA with, you need to study it for a while to learn its characteristics and personality. VSA WILL work but you may need to decide which parts are the more reliable at that TF.

cool.... never heard of vhandstrade but looks great for those that want to practice. Esignal has something like this built in where you can replay the market.
todays long
left to right
1) shake out
2) test
3) test with high vol = buyers
4) test no volume @ 3200 that was your entry for a clear 30 pip

good post
hidden gap 5 min trader ... does awesome
some 15 / 30 min traders ( sono is 15 min mostly)
me 10 and 15 min with views of higher time frames such as 30 and 60 ( think sono also scans these ). I have also traded off 2 hr futures charts and sometimes with a lot of patience daily charts
The time frame that you want to use vsa on will work , but we have to remember that a no demand at 1 hr after us market closes is not a true no demand. I have seen in another forum someone selling something saying xxxxx picked up that no demand at top...
the amount of times you've screamed BACKGROUND BACKGROUND BACKGROUND to me in the past........ another reminder wouldn't hurt anyway 
BTW M5 & M15 for me generally. I'm gonna post an M5 trade I took today shortly. (yes I have started trading again...couldnt keep away!)

Intel certainly did a great job with the trade set up. Just wanted to show the differences in entries. It is a "would be" entry for me as I don't trade this pair.
.....And of course, Intel wins.
The trend follower isn't going to get the top or the bottm, but hopefully the meat in the middle.

Without VSA, you're playing checkers while the Smart Money plays chess.

Intel doesn't always win...... today I entered a trade which had nothing to do with VSA. I made a right pigs ear of it......that'll teach me to stick to what I know
Did you try that DYO I attempted?
