The word "vindication" comes to mind.
No one likes a smug so and so.

Agreed it was a valid call but were you in on it? Your stop at BE would have been hit?

well, I think we are not alone on that mistake...

Can someone that traded today's mess -in the right direction - post a chart with some entry/exit points ?
You see when EU turns down today, there is a resistance and ND in M5. There is entry. I exited too early, should have waited NS in H1, but it was so many pips, and did not want to lose them. Was hoping to re-short from retrace, but as we can see, no retrace. I also had a 1 short left from yesterdays EORM in H1.

lol..don't be so touchy. You guys are more sensitive than...a sore tooth? lol

Not gonna lie, I wasnt in it cause I had other things I had to do today. First entry did hit BE. I just meant my analysis was vindicated. I really don't care about the pecking order around here, but I'll be respectful and will expect the same in return.

As I've said, I'm not new to VSA at all. Just fairly new to the forum. I do know what I'm taking about.

Looking forward to sharing more analysis.

Haha, perhaps an exclamation mark would have made it more friendly!

Generally this thread is very amicable. But for some reason has turned very inactive lately.

There isn't really a pecking order either, just traders trying to help each other out. At least I hope there isn't, i'll be picking up scraps at the bottom of the food chain otherwise!

We'll all try to get along now

You may not see this if I am on your Iggy list but it was a nice call, just poor phrasing on your first post of the day. You saw weakness and traded short which is what VSA is all about. Asia gave a bit of an upside SO to kill the weak shorts and trap some weak longs before... well you know the rest.

Again I wasn't trying to critisize your call to go short as it was very apparent supply had entered on a good size scale based on that volume spike which occured at the days high.

While i do not like Cliftons attitude ... he does have a point when he says he is not new to vsa.

Here is his post from 18 hours ago.

NOTE the Larger TF shows weakness. same thing I saw and a ton others missed

Lets all try and get along please.

Quoting Clifton
I'm not picking a top. Larger TF shows weakness, smaller TF gave ND for entry. This is VSA. So far this trade has seen 45 pips profit with no draw down. Target is demand zone. Fine, you don't agree.

Last time I posted my analysis you took issue as well. That trade went to my target as I posted. If everytime I post an opinion you are going to "correct" me in that sarcastic tone then perhaps you should start your own thread. I'm here to share and learn, not for a pissing contest.

err that is cause most of the active posters all interact in chat everyday that Steve set up and I am trading 12 hour charts , so do not post that often as the set ups are not there everyday ( did throw one up yesterday showing this weakness)

Congrats dvarrin, would you mind posting a chart for your trade?
As promised.

These are 4 trades I took today. They are far from good and I still have a lot to improve, but the result of 212 pips was quite good.

For each trade I opened two lots and I closed one at 16 pips profit and let the other one go to the next support or resistance level.

And Yes, I'm so bad that for sure I've been very lucky today :-))

So EU was interesting as was oil today (1111 pips). Today on EU we saw a 387 pip range which matches last weeks range... CRAZY. Back to 1.45 and an interesting area on the 4hr chart. The question is will we once again find demand in this zone or will we blow through tommorow. Was today just a massive profit taking SO or the start of something more sustained. The high of that April 18th SO bar at around 4420 remains untested or do we once again test into 4200 which is where this whole leg of the upmoved begain on the 19th.

Cheers for the charts and nice one on your results again!

Some of the entries aren't where I personally would have gone in. For instance, your last chart where you shorted. Whilst you were ultimately right, the ND technically fails as the next couple of bars are up and away from the ND. I like my orders to trigger within 2 bars personally. If they don't, i cancel the order.

Using this idea you could have probably avoided the drawn down that you experienced on the second chart. It ultimately came good but the next time it might not!

I'm no guru around these parts, just a few opinions and observations really!

Keep asking questions and you'll get there! This thread has helped me loads over the past few months.
