Well done. As always, love the charts.

Trade Using VSA (Volume Spread Analysis)

I may have made a mistake. For a KRB, it should be opens lower than the previous close and makes a lower low. It should also close higher than it opens and close higher than the previous close. And lastly, its even better if it closes slightly off ...

Trade Using VSA (Volume Spread Analysis)

Thank you and thanks to everyone for the kind words. I truly wasn't fishing for them. I think myself, Shamus and Mal all share one thing in common: we want every person that reads this thread and puts in the work to be as successful as any trader ...

Trade Using VSA (Volume Spread Analysis)

Hi F451. I have attached a chart of the GBP/JPY. Before I get into that let me say that there will always be moves that are missed. It is a fool's game to try and catch every turn and every pip of a chart. You can narrow your focus a bit and you ...

Trade Using VSA (Volume Spread Analysis)

Yes and No. Remember that the ideal or text book Up thrust IS an up bar and the ideal or text book Stopping volume bar IS a down bar. Yet I would still tend to look for the no demand after the up thrust or the test/no supply after the stopping ...

Trade Using VSA (Volume Spread Analysis)

Hello. Again I would start off by saying that this was an answer to a question posed and not a trade taken. I actually mentioned F as the first place to enter. The reason I like F is because by that time we have seen "the big three"- a hidden ...

Trade Using VSA (Volume Spread Analysis)

To be honest, as I see it, there is no difference when using volume and price action. However the type of price action trading I was referring to is more the Japanese candlestick pattern (non volume based) trading type. But I wont go into that here. ...

Trade Using VSA (Volume Spread Analysis)

Thank you so much for the kind words. They really do mean a lot to me. I need to let go of what Gavin said in his webinar. It just kind of hurt me. While he did not mention me by name, to say that this thread does not teach real VSA was a slap in ...

Trade Using VSA (Volume Spread Analysis)

Recently I have been vacillating between the use of VSA and Price Action as my way of using volume doesn't meet VSA criteria-I use one timeframe and a 5 minute timeframe at that. Anyway, I still drop in from time to time to see what’s up. I saw this ...

If you are referring to volatility as it relates to the VIX (volatility index) and or volatility and options pricing, I can not help. Another way of measuring volatility involves things like Average True Range (ATR), Narrow Range 7 (NR7), Narrow ...

Using volatilities

I respectfully disagree. Let's think in terms of purchasing power. If you have a 200 dollar account and are down 100 pips (assume 1pip=1 dollar), then your purchasing power is cut in half. That nice dinner you wanted to take the wife to is now out ...

Trading Sayings: Fact or Fiction

Volume Spread Analysis doesn't use any indicators. It's about reading price bars and volume bars. Tradeguider uses indicators. Although if you ever watch a presentation by Gary Dayton or Seb, they both take that stuff off the charts they use. But to ...

In all honesty, 14,258 of them make FF a better place and we all thank you for that. The other 94, well we all get into disagreements and lose ourselves in the anonymity of the net sometimes. LOL. Keep 'em coming mal.

Trade Using VSA (Volume Spread Analysis)

Wrong. There are gaps in fx just like any other market. The question is whether there are OPENING gaps in the fx market.(i.e. Friday's close to Sunday's open).

POLL: Do you trade The Gap?

That's not gap trading. That is gambling and tying to predict the unknown and unknowable future. It's risky and has no edge.(I think you actually were making this point). Gap Trading involves using a disciplined approach to take advantage of certain ...
