cheers

not sure you could have or rather there where great trade setups for sure. the issue is where would you put the stop loss. in this case a good trade setup likely would still have been taken out by this long bar. so good trades but still lossers. ...cheers</p>

{quote} I do not predict. ........... I always thought the Diamonds were volatility based. I also seem to remember Gavin saying the best setting was 20.
From my notes

Tradeguider's set up:

A. Basic 'Diamond Indicator'
Uses a 5 period MA as its default. - Its easy to eyeball it
Logic:
If Price closes below the MA a red diamond will paint in Trade Station.
If Price closes above the MA a green diamond will paint.
Notes:
1. white diamond: warning of a possible trend change and that is the white diamond.
(a) If you're in a downtrend, closing below the MA then all of a sudden you get a close above the MA that would paint you a white diamond.
If price then reversed and closed below the MA on the following bar, this would also be a white diamond.
(b) In order for either the red or green diamond to paint, it will need to be a 2nd close on that side of the MA since the 1st will be white.
2. If the MA goes from down to up then it goes red to green immediately.
3. If it is still down but the close is above then it will go white.
4. If a Bar move down in an downtrend taking out 2 or more bar's lows & closes diamonds will go right to red. (reverse in an uptrend)

can't disagree, there was a small test right after the "Test after Shakeout" shown in the above video followed by a cute lil spring (28th June) (a possible entry), as there was stopping action in the background, even if stop not triggered, I would of given in to panic selling.


anyway with a huge down bar in the background, I don't think it is a good idea to trade within a bar like that, unless you're a scalper or you have a SoS on steroids like that giant shakeout in the background.

Basic to VSA - esp. Tradeguider is the rule of three (3 charts - MTF trading)

have a great weekend

My first posts after absorbing some knowledge from this great thread. Thank you guys here, especially Hidden Gap for your input. It is a great learning experience for me, I love it.

My interpretation of a strange phenomenon: when weakness appears at a Ultra High Volume downbar.

I observed EUR/JPY M1 looking for a short continuation trade (after weakness).

New candle opened, market felt and almost at the same time rised. Volume increased to UHV when price was in a very tight range

Splitting this bar in two, the first would be a hammer - like (low vol) and the second a UHV Squat.

I considered this as a signal of weakness - BB were dumping loads of supply at this moment.

I took a position (prematurely I know). Three bars later appeared a No Demand (proper place for a short).

In VSA language this bar I suppose would be an absorbtion volume bar, which means the demand at this level was absorbed by BB. Hope you understand my English.

GBP against dollar, yen and swiss franc, Upthrusts everywhere followed by No Demands, is it a signal that after todays news there will be a strong short move?

UT - red arrows, ND - blue.

ND are not confirmed yet as current bar is not closed.

Hi TEB, thank you for your concern. Entry was from serious weakness on M5 chart, M1 was only to work out the entry.

Yes it is a demo, I am stilll in a learning phase, first live transactions I plan in approximately 3-4 weeks from now, maybe even later, it depends how good will I feel with my level of real time understanding of VSA principles and signals.
