At this point you have to think you may be right on direction but wrong on timing. Look to re-enter on the another ND or Up Thrust. As long as you do not see any signs of strength, you should be predisposed to the short side.

Now you have shown your ignorance. " Up-thrusts can be recognized as a wide spread up during the day (or during any timeframe), accompanied by high volume, to then close on the low,..." MTM, P. 78. That is the definition from the source. The master. ...

At least Half Wrong — You are at least half wrong. Let's define an Up Thrust bar. I just wrote a post with a definition. I defined an UP Thrust as a wide spread up bar (closing higher than the previous bar) that makes a higher high and not a ...

First off I have to say, "wow". The chart on the left is from a week ago Friday and the one on the right is from Friday. The pattern is very similar. I think I said something about not knowing what to do tomorrow (Monday) but knowing what to do ...

Intel certainly did a great job with the trade set up. Just wanted to show the differences in entries. It is a "would be" entry for me as I don't trade this pair. .....And of course, Intel wins. The trend follower isn't going to get the top or ...

I'm looking for some help with a DYO for Ensign. I need to figure out how to paint volume less than the previous two. Can anybody help?

A really great trader at another board used to speak very highly of Undeclared......... That trader is now part of the Tradeguider family. Moral of the story: get both. Especially since you can get MTM for free.

Like I said, a pretty aggressive entry. My journal will include this: "Do not like the No Supply bar used as an entry. The bar makes a higher high and not a lower low than the previous bar. Would rather see a lower low and not a higher high or an ...

No Selling Pressure: a wide spread, or at least wider than the previous interval, down bar on volume less than the previous two bars that closes on or near its low. You do not need to wait for comfirmation to know that you have no selling pressure ...

The results will be whatever they will be. The important thing is the process. Hope it helps a bit. In truth it was a bit aggressive entry but I just wanted to show the anatomy of a trade set-up in real time.

Long.

A bit of supply hit the market just about at the level of the close of our Yao Ming bar. The trend remains down as the Hull is falling (pink BG) and we are below the BPL. If price moves up and then we get a No Supply or a test, it's time to get long.

Lots of strength in the Euro (5 min) need to see how it plays out.

Been sitting back watching and learning. We have some truly great VSA aficionados here now. Thank you all for your time and efforts. I just finished watching some of the Tradeguider master class. I was struck by a bolt of lightning when Gavin said, ...

I would think that algo trading produces VOLUME, or at the very least results in price changes-ticks. Either way VSA should be able to analyze it. Trading can be as complex or as simple as you want it to be. It is better,however, to error on the ...

Am I to take from this statement that with the vast amount of high caliber posts made by Mal, you have not learned a single thing? If reading his posts have not had some impact on your development as a VSA trader, I don't know who to feel more sorry ...

Glad you did not answer yet, as I wanted to expand on my reply. The second chart shows a Two bar "pinbar", using the concept of "BLENDING INTERVALS". That is, once the second interval closes, you combine it with the previous interval to create on ...

Whist I generally agree with Mal that names don't matter, Stopping volume only comes on down moves. Ultra high volume certainly stops an up move, but it is not called stopping volume. With that said, very nice pick-up. The candle that is not ...
