Nah, I already ripped his VSA crap to shreds here publicly, that made him sit in the corner crying already in shame, no point flogging a dead horse.

we all have different opinions, trade different timeframes etc. both can be right... but if you share your view you might see something you didn't consider before

My mid-term trade for long EUR/AUD is triggered at 1.30998, i have a s/l at 1.29000 and it is a 0.01 lot trade so i have 20 dollars risk now and i am looking for 1.3900 t/p for the next 6 weeks.
The pair trends quite nicely, but that swap sure is a bitch on the long side!

About this VSA crap, anyone interested in researching what it is really about and see that it couldn't be further from volume try to get a hold of an old article by Garman and Klass back in the 80's when they first published their research papers on using OHLC's to estimate volatility, then have a look at your "VSA" indy's code and see what it really is and how us old boys looked at that some 20 years ago and took it for what it was.

So many retailers think they are reinventing the wheel, guess again kids, been there, done that, got the T-shirt.

But heh, it keeps the scammers like eSignal in business flogging a dead horse we buried about 2 days after we looked into it, and that was over 2 decades ago.

It is funny though how all this old crap gets rebranded and sold again to the next generation of idiots as the best thing since sliced bread.

It is not too bad, the swap is around -1.2 pips per day, which is affordable to the trading if it is really on the correct way to catch 600+ pips..
by the way, i find cross-pairs are more likely to stay in range at a mid-term or long-term.

well, you are right... i sometimes lack of confidence when some people have different views of me and that's a reason why my imporvement is still very slow even i trade for almost 4 years.
I moved my s/l up to 1.3479 when i see it broke 1.3520 but it was a fake broken so it got s/l.. kind of nervous
sorry to interrupt you guys, but i think in forex flexible thinking is good. being stubborn can only bring to disasters. today you are bull, tomorrow bear, nothing wrong with that. however this is not about being indecisive and changing mind every second. usually your analysis are correct, i gues you are doing fine and there are a few things i can learn from you

The one time I need to get rest after after a cold and I come back to see a 240+pip hourly candle, what happen who gave the EU money this time.

Who knows I could have been short there at the bottom, kinda glad I was sleeping now.

But...
VSA cannot help u trade if u trade on VSA alone thats 100% sure. BUT it can help u make some entry decisions when u want to enter at a better price than usual. A 'No Demand' bar with tick volume or w/e at the right place usually is a good place to short. However, i think there's actually too much work involved when using VSA. I mean for 9-10 pips extra it really doesnt matter. Personally i will never use it again.

You got that all wrong there Alex, none of the VSA is based on ticks, they're all based on range, it is a very pisspoor representation of a 5 or 10 tick range bar chart. Look at the code of whatever you have used when it came to VSA, none of it is based on ticks, none of it is based on volume, they are all based on high/lows.

Do me a favour and have a look, you will slap yourself in your face for falling for that scam and maybe, just maybe next time you will question what you are looking at that little bit more and do your research.

Let's have a laugh as you are not using it anyways and post the code that calculates the high/low's of your specific VSA indy here.

"Some people" include:

1. The ones who post only bullshit about their trades
2. The ones who post what they should have done and not what they actually did
3. The ones who post their opinions whithout actually planning to trade based on the same
4. The ones who are risking only accumuated profits and not taking risk on their equity
5. The ones who after losing 90% or so of their account taking rash trades
6. The ones who are trading on timeframe different than yours
7. The one who are willing to accept drawdown times more than probable profit
8. The ones who trade once a week or month
9. The ones who trade every few pips
10. The ones who frequently change their mind after positng
11. The ones with no vouches but seasoned traders
12. The ones with 100 vouches but 0 when it comes to trading
13. and the ones like you and me.

Do what you think is right..................... and yes one more thing, primary purpose of SL is to protect capital beyond that mark not capital between SL and Entry Point.

its another thing that 'traders' fail to do. no one ever studies what they are using. if a person does not study, they cant apply the indicator/tool correctly.

all they see is the line that goes up, down, sideways and draws shit. I am dumbfounded to see how people think its an easy effortless business.'just throw some shit around, hope it works'. it takes time and dedication. well, in my opinion anyway.

This was the indicator that i was using when VSA-ing. Like i said i havent 'mastered' it because something looked fishy to me from the start. However there's a whole thread (or several) dedicated to VSA and some ppl seemed to really have success using it.
