VSA tells us that some sessions have lower volume than others. Low volume signals have to be viewed in light of this fact. Yet, since volume is looked at relatively, there can be relative high volume in a low volume environment (i.e. low volume ...

Trade Guider System VSA, fact or fiction?

What are you saying here? VSA makes RELATIVE COMPARISONS on volume bars. It in no way attempts to forecast what volume will be on a subsequent bar; whether that bar be 2 hours or 2 days into the future. VSA makes no assertions that it can predict ...

" All that matters is: Which way is it going? Right now. Or to put it another way: To be really successful in markets we must look at them through the eyes of a five year-old." J Welles Wilder, The Adam Theory Of Markets, P. 17.

Is making money in FX that easy?

Makes sense. Accept that another VSA tenet states that the BBs are active on all timeframes and in all markets. Simply, the intentions of some BBs can be seen on the timeframe you are trading. Otherwise there would be no such thing as a no demand ...

ALL time frames have trends. Otherwise a chart is not a chart. Take a 2 min GBP and a 4 hour GBP chart. Take off the scale and then tell which is which? If VSA can detect weakness and a chart never lies then you shouldn't need to look at more than ...

WRB analysis and VSA are independent of one another. Although I think they can be melded into a cohesive and synergistic understanding of the supply/demand dynamics in the market. Pure WRB analysis does not need volume. Pure WRB analysis doesn't ...

. Agreed. I will admit that a "move" will last longer/be more pronounced if it is in agreement on 3 or 4 timeframes. But if this is the argument for using multiple timeframes, it seems to me an issue of greed. If one argues that the multiple ...

Just my 2 pips......... This is my biggest problem with VSA. If you believe that a chart never lies (Gavin believes this as I do). And if you believe that a chart is a chart is a chart (again Gavin believes this as I do). Then why do you have to ...

It was a poor attempt at humor. I could not care less where the market is going. I don't make predictions; and certainly don't let the predictions of others get in the way of my trading.

Nice looking charts. The two bar up thrust you labeled is in the wrong place. If that was appearing at the same level where you drew the down trend line, then you would really have something. Also that no demand bar is one of the "Ugly" ones. It ...

To be honest I did not hear that. That's not about understanding the market dynamics, it's about the order entry process. Personally, I trade at the market. What I did hear was: 1. Markets fall faster/easier than they rise because of the inherent ...

This is straight from CD1. A. Hidden potential selling. Markets do not like wide spread up candles on very high volume. This is the first sign of weakness. When weakness appears it appears on up candles. B. The range of this candle narrows and the ...

I don't know if the gaps are real or "broker" gaps but you have to trade what you see. As far as significance goes, I am not sure of the VSA answer. MTM talks of gaps followed by wide spread bars to lock traders in, but I don't know if that applies ...
