thats why you need to spend some money in decent datafeeds. esginal eg aggregates the data of over 200 banks, ecns etc. or cgq which by design has a decent feed. you can easily go and trade the currency futures, because it is a fact that those who move the spot markets also trade the futures markets accordingly.
Yes, Malcolm spoke of esignal some time ago when I asked him a similar. question.

Cloggie is right about Forex Volume. You can't see prints from all the banks and therefore FX volume can never be accurate.


Macolmb is right about Futures Volume. I see every print. But its a complete picture of only the futures market volume. So far today there's been 202,000 6E contracts on globex x 125,000 euro's per contracts. A little over 25 billion euros.

Thats small compared to cash fx but i have seen the footprints Malcolm is talking about on futures. I don't trade them because I see PA more clearly than i see VSA.

I use volume to trade equities, and have done so for 2 decades. VSA fans in FX are missing the entire point of how it is portrayed and why it does not work in FX.
What about VSA set on EUR futures?
That is volume coming from the CME.

Mal, myself and a few others used to hash threw the charts on skype.

Three out of the hand full of us had our levels of importance and strategies for taking trades.

Mal, used a term call POC.
Another trader worked with the Cams.
I with Moving Averages.

Surprisingly enough, we all happened to find the same direction if not the same trades on a fairly consistent basis...

Now, I am with ya on not being able to properly apply VSA to Forex, but that sure doesn't say much against the system or my brother Mal...I just prefer a different set of...
Oh I'm not saying that traders can't make money from using VSA, not at all, Malcolm and I talked about this early last year sometime. I'm not critisizing anyone or anything, I'm just questioning the quality of the volume information that we, as retail traders receive. I'm damned if I can make it work, but that's fine.....I have a more basic approach and make money too. At the end of the day, making money is what we do this for.....and it's 3.45am where I am, so I must like what I do....lol.

Its just measuring activity, thats all you are trying to look for, activity.

If vsa doesnt work for you thats fine but from my personal experience I can say its the only way I trade and I have been doing well with it. The goal with any trading style is to make money and if yours does thats great. The debate about the grail will go on untill the markets are shut down.

in fact real volume is calculable using regression analysis.

breaching 3529 mid monthly body then bouncing back to the close and not holding it just before the gmt day closed makes me skeptical of longs.
