Its "Ease of Movement" which you can find described here: url I couldn't find an MT4 indicator for it anywhere except for a nearly-functional version on the mql4.com forum, which I took and modified a bit to suit my own purposes (changes listed in ...

Thanks Hiddengap, interesting to see analysis of lower TFs too - please keep posting

Hi Chris, your indicator sounds promising indeed & its obvious you've put a ton of work into it. Thanks for offering to share

VSA/Wyckoff Simplified

Got onto a nice short today on USDCAD, thought I'd share my analysis/thought process that led me into the trade. Please bear in mind that I have a lot to learn re VSA techniques, and would appreciate correction if I've made mistakes or missed ...

Welcome back carramch! I think you've pretty much summed it up there. I've found the markets very hard to read lately due to the lack of direction & big money pushing it around at their whim. EU had a nice example of a "Judas Swing" yesterday on the ...

Looks like your short's turned out ok maxim

I can see fake/SV moves in each direction. Combined with the start of the Frankfurt session & London imminent I'd prefer to wait for the market to make up its mind.

awsl: SV means "stopping volume", where a trend hits an area of resistance or support that stops it in its tracks despite a high volume effort to keep going. Often associated with a trend's "climax" where it gets totally carried away & runs hard ...

Depends where you are & how your stock market is regulated as to whether the volume is "true" and the playing field "level". Where I am in Australia, neither are the case. Big money & brokers can & do conduct large off-market transfers of shares, ...

Great post maxim, yes makes perfect sense & ties in perfectly with "Wyckoffian" reversals like this one:- image Section "C" would be where you'd look for low volume fake bars, and/or low spread high volume bars as evidence that big money is intent ...

Thanks for the description, makes sense. I have a bit of an issue with the blue bar though being a fake - I often see when a support or resistance level is busted & the market decides to get moving, it can cover lots of territory with little volume ...

If you have a chance, would you mind sharing a chart or two to illustrate what you mean?

VSA/Wyckoff Simplified

And now I can agree with you. On its own it is indeed not enough, and support resistance etc are vital.

VSA/Wyckoff Simplified

That's not what I meant, and there's no need for the snide personal comments either. You believe tick volume is worthless, we get it. Just because you believe that doesn't make it true. I've seen tons of correlation between volume in forex and price ...

*sigh* This thread's going to hell in a handbasket

VSA/Wyckoff Simplified

Thought I'd add my 2 pips worth. Any thoughts/comments welcome as I'm learning here Edit: I should point out that volume is only reliable if you have a decent ECN broker - I have accounts with 2, IC Markets and Pepperstone & their volume charts ...

VSA/Wyckoff Simplified

Well, your charts are totally on-topic & extremely informative - I really like the narrative & VSA certainly seems to lend itself to an unfolding story of what the market's doing. I took that short trade on AU as well, was the only trade I made ...

VSA/Wyckoff Simplified

Heh, he doesn't have to open your image My charts tend to be heavily annotated as well... As a VSA novice (I'm more into chart patterns) I really appreciate what both of you are sharing, am learning a lot.

VSA/Wyckoff Simplified

Great charts nico, thanks for posting & looking forward to seeing more of your analyses.

VSA/Wyckoff Simplified

hipcio, on a normal chart, H1 for example, its in a bit of a downtrend which it could break up from (or not). I've been experimenting with Renko a bit over the last few trading days with RVI acting as a simple filter, and it looks much less decisive ...
