Pardon the erroneous label there. Followed the image thinking you sold. VSA is not about seeing an entry setup and taking it while hoping it magically goes into profit....Malcolmb, one of the vsa masters here, used to say VSA is action and reaction.

Trezo, I recall HiddenGap telling you to have a 5 minutes chart for trend analysis so as to trade the 1 minute chart. You cannot just dwell on a particular timeframe, especially the 1 minute chart, without knowing what the bigger picture is saying. ...

I shall add to what Paulscaff1 has said. Like I said earlier, no current price action will erase background indication. In addition to the fact that M5 and M15 were in an uptrend thus ruling out shorts, the no-demand you took failed because it was ...

Trezo, it is good that you display your trades and their outcome to solicit explanations to become better. I went through the images of your trades and wondered why you took any short without confirmation...such as a downbar and a close below the ...

HiddenGap, your posts are such a treasure. Thank you for your selfless efforts to clear the mists surrounding profitable vsa trading.

True that. One has to make a habit of repeated disciplined trades to the extent it becomes second nature before such a person can make any progress in trading. As long one is familiar with the foundation of volume spread analysis and does not go ...

I believe VSA can be traded in different ways so that anyone may adapt it to suit their personality. The trade you highlighted that Gavin took attests to this. I would not have taken that trade. One of the conditions I look for before taking a trade ...

Hey, Trezo, I am also struggling but making good progress in mastering vsa. What I can say is that you should use other methods that can help you make sense of vsa. Do not limit yourself to just what is taught in the books or webinars. Experiment ...

Koop, it is needless engaging this dude any further trying to educate him. Clearly, the import of a sentence is well beyond the boundary of his comprehension so that his misinterpretation of your statements is fuel for his incorrigibility.

FTMO - For serious traders

Well done, Masterrmind. I had been itching to hear that. Thanks for doing the needful.

Ad hominem? Really? The best you can come up with in response?

Your argument is exceedingly vague as there is no coherent thread of logic that binds your statements. Business ventures rise and some collapse, and for a good many it is not necessarily from the fact that they possess all the ingredients of failure ...

Your visual statement that traders who recommend MFF and FTMO are puppets is baseless and infantile at best. This thread is an intellectual sieve through which legitimate prop firms are separated from the spurious ones with sound, logical and ...

Hey Syntax, could you upload the image of the chart if it is not a bother?

Seriously, Trezo, why are you pugnacious to everyone who takes their time to respond to you as best as they can? It is as if you are spoiling for a fight when there is no reason to. If you can't accept instruction or correction in the helping spirit ...

Aren't you taking a harmless banter too far? The tone you use is confrontational while Paulscaff1's tone is light, jocular, humorous. Can't you get it that he meant no harm?

Hello, it has been quite a while since you updated your thread. Hope you are making progress towards your goal.

Harder than I thought

If by mistakes you mean emotional mistakes you have to work on your psychology. As long as price has met your entry criteria pull the trigger like a robot. Do not be overly happy when you win a trade or discouraged when price hits your stoploss or ...

That is what you should do — keep learning. There is no easy path to success in trading. Good luck.
