Many people want to pick tops and bottoms. Volume Spread Analysis can help with that. But a safer way to trade is to pay attention to CONTINUATION trades. That is, trades with the dominant trend. This uses two time frames and jumps from on to the other. I call the 15 min the trend frame and the 5 min the trade frame. We are looking left, to trade right. A: We see a Test prior to the London open. I consider the London open 0200 hrs. Note the increase in volume at the 0200 bar. B: At 0220 we see a No Demand on the 5 min. Note enough evidence for me to enter short, but if you're super aggressive........ C: No Demand at 0230 on 15 min. We can see that the trend is down. We can see many up bars on low volume in the background. We should be predisposed to the short side. Note also that there have been bars with lower lows than the Test bar. Supply still in the market. D: WRB. WRBs are about the range from open to close. In other words, candles are not necessary to see them. WRBs signify possible shifts in the supply/demand dynamics in the market, and set up our Support/Resistance Zone where we would like to find entry points. E: No Demand. Unfortunately, for me, this bar trades outside of the body of the WRB so it is not an entry signal. However, the previous bar, which was also an effort to fall has a No Demand on the next bar. Further showing the weakness in the market. F: BINGO. UpThrust within the body of our WRB. At 0320 we have a valid entry signal with background weakness on both the 5 min chart and the 15 min trend chart. Initial stop is just above the high of the WRB. The stop is then moved to just above the high of another WRB. Then we get a No Demand bar. The stop is moved to just above this bar. This level is the same level as the UpThrust which does not take us out, but does remain the stop level. THE TREND IS YOUR FRIEND.

I was wrong. :doh: Clearly demand entered and pushed prices sideways. I was thinking (my first mistake) that since it's a U.S. holiday today, they would try and push the price up as they are oft to do on a holiday. Not to mention that this was Friday and I thought (there I go thinking again ), that people were squaring positions for the weekend.

Market Phases: In many ways the forex market is easier to trade as the signs and market phases are so clear, but VSA is for all timeframes and all markets.

If you know how to make this a zip, please feel free to do so. For those with VT, just copy into a new trading system and then go to outputs and input the various No Demand/No Supply and Squat signs.

Order is placed on the open of next bar as a market order.

Short set up(s): Interesting things prior to the trade set up. A: UpThrust out of place (Polar bear in Africa). If this had been real weakness, there would be weakness in the background. B: Test. Notice that the volume is low and the close is in the middle. No sellers. C: Test. Note that the volume on this Test is even lower than the Test two bars ago. Even more evidence that at this time the path of least resistance is up. D: Narrower to equal range bar with more volume than previous bar that closes on the low and is a buying bar. That is, it makes a higher high than previous bar but not a lower low. This is a Squat/UpThrust. This candle is designed to get people in on the long side. E: Now we get what we want to see. This is a dark WRB. High volume on down bars usually means selling and this is the case here. Since this is a WRB, we know that something is changing in the supply/demand dynamics in the market. This WRB sets up our Support/Resistance zone to look for an entry point. F: This is a Test. But note that the volume here is higher than the previous two test, while being lower than the previous two candles. Hence, while we have low volume we have pretty high volume for a test. In other words, this is a failed test. It shows that there are sellers (supply) below. Also note the size of the range versus the previous two Test. G: BINGO. Low volume sign within the range of the body of a WRB with high volume after a Failed Test. This is an Up bar on volume less than the previous two bars, making a higher high , on a narrower range. This is No Demand. The Smart Money is not interested in higher prices. H: This is No Supply and out of place. More exactly, the background is full of weakness so this No Supply should not be taken as a long signal. The Pros may not be ready to take the market down, but they are not looking to go long. I: Case and point we see No Demand. Clearly the market does not want to go up. J: Higher high, closing on the lows, closing up on higher volume. This is an UpThrust. We have weakness in the background. This also occurs within the body of the Dark WRB making a good place to place a short entry. K: High volume closing down from previous bar but closing in the upper portion of its range- this is stopping volume.

Wrong. For every buyer there is a seller. More enthusiastic buyers than enthusiastic sellers, move the market up; more enthusiastic sellers than enthusiastic buyers move the market down.

Nice of you to join us. I have stated on one of these many pages that the best thread on the internet bar none is this one. Everyone should take a look at it. However, I sure hope we get back to VSA soon and end the TG bashing (and you know how much I hate TG)....

Taken it up a notch. A: Down bar on high volume with a close in the upper portion of range; Demand enters. This is confirmed with the next bar up. B: WRB/Effort to Rise. Up bar with high volume and increasing range. Markets typically don't like up bars on high volume as they may contain selling (supply). WRB analysis says that a change in the supply/demand dynamic may be happening. C: Down bar on high volume. Some supply did enter on previous bar. However, this bar is down on high(er) volume and could be hiding strength. The next bar does indeed close up, so there must be some buying in this down bar. D: Up bar that closes in the lower portion of its range. Volume is high. Clearly Supply entered on this bar. The move sideways confirms that there was some supply entering on the last few bars. The fact that the market moves sideways and not down is telling of overall strength. E: Down bar that is also a selling bar (low lower than previous low and high equal to or lesser than previous high). Volume has dried up and is less than the previous two volume levels. This is No Supply. Possible first entry as we now have a low volume sign within the body of a WRB with high volume. F: D created a top and F is an Effort to Rise thru that top and the resistance level of B. Note volume is not very high and the close is on the high of the bar. This is a time when an up bar is strength not weakness. G: More supply comes in. We get a very high volume bar that closes equal to the previous bar and closes in the lower portion of its range. While this was a buying bar (higher high than previous bar and higher or equal low than previous low), volume reveals the truth. Supply entered. The next bar is indeed down. H: This is a Test. Had this been actual selling the volume would be higher. Plus the close would not be on the high of the range. When the next bar closes up and confirms the Test, we again have a low volume sign within the body of WRB. In short, another possible entry point. I: is No Demand. There is no weakness in the background here. Or at least we see much more strength than weakness. The pros may not be ready to participate on an up move, but they are not selling decisively. Note how the next bar is down but does not trade lower than the low of the Test. J: Test/Test in a Rising Market. Normally bullish but there is now a Gap on the chart. Gaps are usually filled. Does the Test tell us that this one will not be? K: Effort to Rise. As previously stated, many times after a low volume sign there will be an Effort bar. This is due to the relationship between volume and volatility. At any rate, the next bar is down and we can see no close higher than this bar. This looks like No Result from an Effort to Rise (Bearish). Evidence that the market wants to at least back fill the gap. L: Possible Test. The chart was captured before the close of the last bar so it may turn out that this bar is not a Test. If it is, it would make sense that the market is looking for supply as there has not yet been any results from the Effort to Rise and there is a Gap below. One should note that the low of this Possible Test is not lower than the low of the previous Test. This could be a good sign. Any dark WRB closing lower than this Test bar would be a sign of further falling prices....

Tawe Maybe I should of been more exact. It is a candle/bar that is narrower than the previous candle/bar. You are correct that it is not a narrow range bar as defined by an overall measure of bar/candle ranges. Range/Spread means high to low. The only exception is WRB which is Wide Range Body and refers to the distance between the open and the close.

WoW. Going thru forum withdrawal. Never again Soul!!! LOL. Just a quick pic of an interesting, yet oft repeated pattern. Check out the chart below. Notice the Squat that appears on the chart. We have a narrow range bar with volume higher than the previous bar and volume that is high. But look at the volume on the very next bar. It drops off considerable on a down bar that closes near its high, in other words, a Test. Thus the Supply that entered on the previous bar (the Squat) most of been absorbed. This is thus a bullish sign. Also note that the Test is within the body of a WRB formed by the Effort to Fall Candle. Let's back up to this candle for a second. We see a large dark WRB on higher volume that represents an Effort to Fall. But the next candle is up. We are seeing no result from high volume on this candle. Once the market move up and closes higher than the high of the Effort candle, we have no result from an Effort to Fall. Which is of course, a bullish sign. Price falls down the next two bars however. Still on this fall we see a candle with volume less than the previous two bars , closing on its low and closing lower than the previous candle: No Supply. Look to the right to the Test candle. Notice that this Test does not get as low as the low of the No Supply candle. Hard to believe that that is just happenstance.

Wow. Very nice stuff Soul thank you.

Nothing to say, just thought this was a nice looking chart.

Haven't seen it, but it's my understanding that the primary focus of that CD is on using the stock scanner feature in TradeGuider.

In chaos theory chaotic implies a higher form of order. In other words, non-randomness on a higher level. An example of this would be the fractal nature of the markets. A 5 min. chart looks like a 15 min. chart looks like a 240 minute chart. The higher timeframes tending to influence the lower ones. If markets were random this would not be the case. As far as saying the markets are logical, this can't be the case. In that markets are driven by FEAR and GREED two emotions that defy all logic.

Trading is a curios game. It attracts some of the smartest minds there are. Yet, most traders loose. So, if the best and the brightest can not figure it out, it most be random. Or so the thought process of the 90% who fail to make money goes. Most people spend their time trying to conquer the market, rather than learning how to surrender to it. Guess which group doesn't even care if the markets are random or not ? And they aren't.

wish all this VSA stuff was in the VSA thread. We love to hear from the haters too. BF we both know that you could get it if you wanted to. You're one of the smart ones-not that it takes smarts; look at me. I think just maybe the thread is so long because volume is the truth. BTW, how else is knowledge passed from one person to the next ? That is, somebody that knows something or has a particular skill TEACHES it to another person. I can' t understand why people want to disbelieve a. Person for passing on knowledge. Did they act that way to their professors?

Yes and No. I do not presume to know what is in Tom's mind, but there is a bit of placation going on here. Tom, the father of Volume Spread Analysis, does not like technical indicators. He has the ability to read a chart bar by bar and make uncannily accurate "predictions" of future price moves. As the rumors go, Tom was not very happy with TG when it first came out because; (1) there were too many signs of strength and weakness and (2) there were technical indicators included in the software. But Tom is a realist. He does understand that most traders into this area (trading) thru TA. This is because it is easier than reading a naked chart and more accessible. As far as using them together, I believe, he would say if the TA doesn't match the VSA, always go with the VSA. Think about like this: Instead of going long because macd is diverging and there are signs of strength in the background; one should go long because there are signs of strength in the background and oh by the way macd is diverging. May seem like a subtle difference but they are actually worlds apart. In the end, Tom does not trade your money. You have to do what works for you. It is about making money. If moving averages or CCI help you make money and make your VSA better, then use them.

mcichocki; While I do believe in the "universality" of Fibs I do not use them. One main reason is that I do not know when to apply them. But I use the basic ones like: .320, .500, .620 and .780 I prefer the Market Profile "pivots". The key is to focus on PRICE ACTION around the line. Here is where you want to see Tests, No Demands, No Supply, Stopping Volume, bottom reversals et all. And of course, WRBs.

Okay, I lied. This is the last pic. Note that there was another entry/add on as we got a WRB and then a Test within the body. This Test is a Test in a Rising Market a true sign of strength. The real lesson here is: Being right and sitting tight, that's where the money is.

No! LOL. Look into using Market Profile levels or some form of "pivot" levels. Even fib levels will work. Then simply pay attention to the signs at these levels. The Smart money may or may not be using RSI or ADX, but they certainly know where the key price levels are based on High, Low, Pivot, POC, VAH,VAL and other price levels where volume was extreme.

Last pic. This just shows the how the move ended up as we appear to have hit a resistance level. Better trade mgmt by me could of resulted in much more profit. (note to self: don't play that game.) Again, I doubt anything was learned from this exercise. If so, let me know. As far as I am concerned, I could of just shown this chart and pointed out the entry and possible price target and the same ammount of information could of been passed on.

Not the best trade, but I hope you got what you wanted to see. Some thoughts * as previously stated, not the best time of day to trade. Forget 24 hr market sells picth about forex, trade during the London and New York sessions. * While I don't use profit targets, initial price target was 1.4339. This would fill the gap created by the WRB. * entry 1.4321 exit 1.4328 7pips 7*$10.00=$70.00 per contract * price when as high as 1.4336. As I write this, however, price is at 1.4344.

Update of chart:

Here you go. Right edge stuff.
