4. Fill in the blank. No supply followed by a high volume upbar confirms further.....................


5. Fill in the blank. During an ‘End of a Rising Market’ the market is capped by .....................

6. What VSA action is this? A false breakdown of support in a trading range to mislead into shorts, catch stops and trap bears before a fast reversal upwards. Occurs also in an uptrend.


7. What VSA action is this? An upthust which appears on two bars and is a powerful sign of weakness. The specialists have trapped buyers and triggered stop losses as they mark prices down.

broker clears out all my orders after 1am and I opened this order before so you will have to settle for the closing order. Thinking about creating a small MT4 account to put up myfxbook, I just really hate MT4 so I am debating.

Hi SimpleDev,

That failed test which triggered your short entry, was checking if any supply was left at that level. Since it failed to go up in next intervals, you decided that to short the pair. If i am wrong, please correct me.

A potential NS bar that is not confirmed in next first or second candle is a failed test. Is this ok ?

A failed test is when the next bar closes either on the low of the test bar or lower. A failed test is really a SOW and not an entry bar, I took it as an entry because I was very confident in the trade and was willing to take the risk.

Edit: to answer your second question, I have never seen anyone refer to a failed NS. I would stick to failed tests on that front.


Here is the proper entry to today's setup, a LV UT.

Because those who completely figured it out knows this information is too valuable to give out. I say this respectfully to the market, but once you figured every inch of VSA it will feel like you are the market.

Your entry is based on a test into a previous high volume demand area. Even the last candle you marked on the chart, was not a perfect test bar or NS bar ( volume was not less than previous two bars) according to Vsa definition, it was enough to enter a long entry.

I comment this just to learn from you how you decided to go long.

No its not a perfect Test or NS.

Ok here is a story, first starting learning VSA.. I got very frustrated and gave up for 6 months. The thing that got me was tests, you have high volume tests, low volume tests, hidden tests normal tests. To me it was almost like these weirdos trading VSA were making it up as they went. Here it is 4 years later and I would call myself barely competent enough in VSA.

Starting to piece this together as the entry bar is almost insignificant in the VSA process, its just an excuse to get in the trade, Ive said this many many times.

VSA is really about identify where the demand or supply is at. So the bar I entered was strength at demand.

So here we now.. Pretty much as soon I posted my trade, the thought occurred to be that the bulk of the volume happened at the whole number 139, and that there was a good chance price would come back to this area.

Definitely could have gotten a better position on this trade, but still sticking to my guns on this trade and taking this up to 141. Hourly close is going to be important here in 20 minutes, weak close I may have to bail on this trade.
