Well, odin, its very weird question you know? Everyone has his own methods how to explore the market. I think that there are so many external variables influencing the price that one can understand this system only with heavy study. Lets say 50 years.

I think you should start with basics, which are three:

Fundamentals: You need to know how money flows, how it seeks yield between different asset classess. What CBs do. What is a liquidity. How OTC market works, his size, who can influence it. How international market works, how goods flow. Generally,...
Keep up the good works. You are on the right road. Now Practise makes perfect. We agree on almost all issues here. I always leave some space to improve on. Nothing is 100%.

... Follow the money flow between Asset Classes as they lead the charts.
"They lead the charts". How am I to follow the money flow between asset classes if I can't look at charts??? Throw darts? Read tea leaves? Charts are the leading indicators and it's the combination of multiple charts (of different asset classes) that can provide an indication of possibly where the money is flowing.

I wish you'd stop saying that because it's misleading to those who are just starting out and don't have much experience doing technicals.

Hi Odinj,

First of all welcome to EurAnalysis. Everyone is encouraged to share here but you cannot expect to find an instant education from the posters. Asking a general question like that will get you nowhere. Everyone is busy trading.

If what you read here is not enough for you, then I suggest you read page 1. There you will find many links to educational resources which you may find very helpful. While you are there, please take some time to read the rules and objectives. If you have a specific question, don't hesitate to post it.

Hope everyone has a good pipful week

What's the sentiment for today? Are we still shorting the euro with every chance we get?

What would you guys think about 1.2220-1.2230 area as a short term shorting opportunity, as of course I have missed the move down in London session?

Thanks for the feedback

Please let me be CLEAR. It is 100% accurate to state that the Money Flow leads the charts. If the Dow goes down 200 what Chart predicts it in ADVANCE ? As the Dow goes down we have RISK OFF. The money leaves Oil, Euro and other currencies and Asset Classes.

US Dollars are bought and the money then is used to buy the US Bonds. I mainly follow the 2 Year and 10 Year however I also watch the 5 Year and 30 Year.

I NEVER said do not use charts. I use charts and they make up 25% of the Tools in my Toolbox. I use Fundamentals for the other 25% and I combine that with Good Risk Management for another 25% and lastly however MOST IMPORTANT in my opinion is control of your fears, greed and Ego. That is the other 25%.

This method works for me however depending on your make up it may not work for you or other traders.

Risk On or Risk Off starts the Ball Rolling and that then creates Money Flow which in turn changes the charts just like happened this morning with EUR/USD.

I hope you understand that this is my view and you are entitled to yours without putting down mine.

Peace Out !!!

This post is NOT MEANT to be an opinion or a debate.

If you disagree fine that is your right. I will not debate a fact that is not in doubt.

Have a great day and make lots of PIPS using whatever method works for you.

Just to remind you. 22039 is june 2010 monthly close. I have marked it red on the left side of the chart. It is a starting point of this cycle. In my books, this is incredibly important breakpoint.

Explain to me how you follow the money flow beforeit's displayed on any chart, because what you're stating is that the flow occurs prior to being posted on any charts and the chart is nothing but a lagging indicator.

So what are you using to follow these asset classes?

Past and Future. It is a lagging indicator showing the amount of gas being created by the decomposition of digested foods. However, knowing what was eaten before the decomposition process began is a leading indicator as to the amount of gas that's going to be produced.

That's easy.. I follow my chart (premium broker) and then 2 seconds later, it appears on your chart (bucket shop broker)

Jokes aside, I too would like to know the answer to that question. It is true that the transaction takes place first and then it is reflected on the charts. Assuming it is not a bucket shop broker, the lag is approx 25 to 100 milliseconds

Don't tell me you can't incorporate volume analysis into TA.

For those not fully aware of Tom William's work, Sonic's Indy can help, especially with its alerts (and a grave-yard doji too).....now will the S1 level give an early US Session bounce.....TWT
Was also reading Tom Williams and trying to follow VSA for a bit and it certainly makes sense, but as a novice it was probably a bit too much too soon for me I felt. However I did get the impression that on my demo accounts the FXCM volume corresponded better than Alpari volume to the "paid for" volume feeds that some vsa traders were using ..just in case you hadn't considered that already.
The spoken word is your master, the unspoken word your slave.
