Analytical VSA Trader - Trading with Volume Spread Analysis

AUDUSD was moving in descending triangle. It was possible to draw a down-trendline and market turned 4 times near this resistance. Lower limit of this triangle was a support line. Recently it was broken by wide spread down-bars with high volume.

In daily timeframe it is obvious that USDCAD is moving in Mark-up phase (market is rising).
In H4 timeframe we can see that character of movement was changed after the price has broken resistance created by previous high. After the resistance was broken, market started to move up with new pattern (angle is very steep).

This is a near resistance trade which was opened after up-thrust in USDJPY.
In this chart we have long-term resistance which was created by previous high. At first market was rising, than we had an up-thrust (2 wide spread bars with high volume). VSA indicator detected 2 very weak signals here (Major Supply). Reversal indicator also suggested that market can turn in this place.

NZDUSD H1 trade analysis:

There is a very interesting pattern in AUDUSD chart. Movement is limited by two important lines:
1. Upper limit: long-term resistance
2. Lower limit (support): up-trendline with several touches (already 5 times market turned near this line)
Now there is a high probability that prices again approach the long-term resistance. This pattern is also known as an ascending triangle. Eventually market will break one of these lines. VSA and Reversal indicators will help us understand the direction of break-out. Usually it is accompanied by high volume and wide spread bars.

NZDUSD is moving in a trading range. The area between the upper and lower trend lines is known as the trading range. In VSA terms, the (sideways) market is trading within its range, and will continue to do so until applied (selling or buying) effort makes it break out.

On the hourly timeframe, we noted there was some demand coming in. However, on the early hours of 4th January, just a few bars later, very high volumes came in, first on narrow up bars, and then on wide spread down bars. This was heavy selling coming in, as traders were buying near the up trendline and many professionals were using the liquidity to sell (and thus keeping the bars range narrow), and in the 2 next bars no buying could stop the selling anymore, and the market went down violently on high volumes. It goes to show that you must be fast on your feet, as things can change quickly in the markets.

As the Sterling is selling-off for weeks in a row, it made sense to look for intraday opportunities in GBP pairs. Likewise, gold is also getting stronger, as the Dollar weakens, and AUD is directly affected by these movements, as Australia is a major gold exporter.

In my previous EURJPY analysis I pointed out that the prices were just testing a down trendline, and given the accumulation seen behind, it’d be wise to wait for an up-breakout of the resistance. Read more:

The background was weak – one should only look for short trades. Prices had just broken a support. This is important because near a support, there will always be increased volumes from locked-in traders, which means any demand signals could just be from stoplosses being hit. You should wait for confirmation for the prices to break-through upwards again. Read more EURJPY M5 Demand and Support Trade Analysis

EURUSD has been in a strong uptrend after breaking out from a base last week. The prices also broke an important down trendline in a furious up movement, on high volume and wide range up bars. It’s now in a critical area that will be characterized by a high volatility. Read more EURUSD - An Intraday Analysis with Volumes and Reversals

After the high volumes that was noted on the last post (zone 1), I wrote that if prices failed to continue the rally soon, this would be a sign of too much supply hitting the market and would be a probable reversal point. In the Asian session the prices failed to rise, and a bit more supply showed up as a churn bar (green bar) after a small rally. When the London session opened, the prices went down to re-test the previous area of demand.

EURUSD Demand and Background

Australian Dollar went through a 90 pips fall in prices on the US session today, partly because of RBA recently communicating the reasons behind maintaining a low cash rate, with no prospects of raising it soon, and also because of the recent movements in gold, which influences Australia’s major gold exporter economy. Looking at prices and volumes, we can see the same picture – a top in very high volume and several Supply signals, without the volumes slowing down on the way down, and with a weak background.
