Intel, a chart "walk through" with descriptions would be nice.... helps us get into the mind of the master.

Or did I miss it already? This thread moves so fast (that's a good thing).
Without VSA, you're playing checkers while the Smart Money plays chess.

Interesting market today , es seems to be testing that break out level of 1257 , gold got hammered as DR geppy said it might be.

GU i find interesting as that stopping vol I played on a 2 hr chart gave us 1.5650 , we have had a little dip and have found a high vol test on the 60 min. I am looking for a new entry above 1,5600 if that test plays out for another 150 to 200 pip trade.

Yes I've been very poor with the charts today. I'll post a couple in a bit.

thanks sonofin for that one. He showed me a little method on the higher time frame charts , that even if they are right 70% of the time allow for stress free trading.

For example 60 min gu test on uh vol closing on high = buyers .... placing buy entry 15 pip above that bar with a 60 pip stop ( under the 50% level of the high vol bar) should work if the strength is prven , These trades lead to 150 pip trades

Was thinking the same myself, it's still VSA based yes? Just with a slightly different entry?

Hi Malcolm!
That one was awesome! I'm seeing the accumulation phase in hindsight on my chart... Don't know if I will see it next time. Can you please show me which bar you mean?

Second trade hit TP. I felt the weakness seen during the last trade was still valid so when the UT came on the M15 chart, I switched back to the M5 and immediately saw the ND. This was enough for an entry. The M15 confirmation came on queue but after my entry.

Hi Intel,

in the chart you say enter at the low of ND. But it seems to me that bar is higher in vol than the previous. Is it still a ND??

ND - a narrow spread up bar closing well off the high on low volume.

The volume compared to the previous 8 bars is low and almost as low as the last bar.

It is a ND but not as obvious as our usual NDs (< prev 2 bars). The spread is also a little wider than we'd like, but hey, lifes not perfect!

EDIT : I would recomend that people only use the conventional description of a ND.

You couldn't be clearer! I only considered ND the bar lower than previous two. It seems I'm learning something every day....maybe I'll reach your level before Forex will be centralized on an outer space planet.....

thanx

1.5560 On gu should have some support; this could go to 5700. Would like to see some sort of testing of 5560 in Asia.
