How to trade breakouts? look for a NS after a breakout? anyone??

I usually look for low vol test (no supply/demand bars) after the break happen. In my humble opinion breakouts are an effort vs results thing.

Thanx CurrencyPlun


here's a 30min chart of CJ we can see the breakout



let's take a closer look at the same 30min chart


bars 1 & 2 have weak close with bar 2 being an UT, this only suggests the high volume (green) of the breakout bar is actually dumping, no?
now we had to wait for an effort to close above the high of that UT & look for further SoS like a NS but that never happened.

I keep getting emails through saying updates to this thread, and when I log on I discover trading call posts.

Deas - would it not be best to open a new thread for your posts? After all this is VSA with Malcolm, and I'm not even seeing volume on your charts. Your posts also sound like the spam emails I get with trading calls. No offence intended - just think you'd be better starting a new thread for your posts as they don't appear to have anything to do with VSA - unless I'm missing something (is my screen chopping off the volume at the bottom )

Malc (and lots of others) did a lot of good with this thread and it serves as an excellent resource for anyone interested in VSA - start at the beginning. It is supposed to be an educational thread though, learning from others

Good day!
I wanted to create your own theme, but I can not because the forum rules that limit me in this. If given this opportunity and I have created a theme for it, I was only too happy!
