I am new user of enSign (I downloaded trial version) but I cant see study SD,PVP,VWAP.... Please give me some information about it or I have to program it ???? Thank you very much.(sorry maybe offtopic)

Jerry, in your global strategy, when you talk to dynamic HUB, can you quote the virgin POC (of steidlmayer) too ?

 

Thanks.

 

Alex

 

If you are asking, do I include previous PVP's as dynamic HUP, the answer is yes. In fact, if I see price action approaching a PVP, I will just stand aside and not trade there. If I am already in a trade and price action approaches a PVP I will usually exit there. As far as the PVP's being virgin or not, I don't make a distinction between virgin or non virgin ones.

Kuky,

If you have the latest ensign version (Nov 13 version), you will find the VWAP and SD as one of the studies. Just right click on your chart and choose studies. At the bottom of the list is the VWAP. To get the PVP, choose the price histogram study and set it to volume. The PVP will appear as a red line on the histogram

Found these great threads lately.

 

Just wonder:

When I used to look at technical analysis, the indicators use to leg the real action. My understanding was: most traders are familiar with the technical-analysis and use it - causing the indicators to become less efficient.

 

If many are going to use the tecniques presented here, would it still work?

The pvp is a dangerous point, i understand now why !

It is as it that I go trade, thank you still for your advices.

 

Best regards.

Ofer, what's presented here in these threads is not a "method", but a way of viewing the price and volume distribution. No matter how many traders looked at the volume distribution, the distribution would still be valid, since it represents the statistics of all trades that have taken place. There would still be a PVP, a VWAP and a SD. How you use that information is highly personal depending on your trading style and objectives

This is the ES price action from yesterday, excellent trading day, with 1,2,5,10 Days VWAP & SD and 1 Month (this is my history depth). Nice price action next to previous SD HUPs marked in ellipses. Todays statistics are solid lines and longer period are the dash lines.

 

 

Cheers

Hello Jerry and fellows;

 

My indicators are not be perfect yet; thus I don't have HUPs from previous days on my chart.

 

This is today's price action on ES. I am still learning this methodology.

Jerry I would appreciate your comments.

 

I would also appreciate a chart with HUPs. I trust that they would provide further guidance for trade management.

 

cheers.

Unicorn.

This is the Volume Statistics chart for NQ.

 

I would appreciate your comments, on the trades that I can identify.

 

My understanding of the concepts applied to NQ price action today is:

When the VWAP is close to the PVP, on the other side of price action, expect oscillations, do nothing.

For advanced traders only: If you expect a breakout, you can enter on the breakout of sd1 or sd2, trade direction away from VWAP.

QUESTION: Could this be applied today after 14:16 EST?? By the way, chart time is EST + 7hours.

 

Jerry, I would appreciate your NQ chart with HUPs and your remarks on the guidance that HUPs would have provided to the NQ trade management.

 

Thank you.

Cheers.

Unicorn.

Finally, today's ER chart.

 

I would appreciate your comments on the trades that I can identify.

 

Jerry, I would appreciate any suggestions for exits, in the case that price does not reach the next sd target. Would you use an indicator?

 

Thank you.

Take care.

Unicorn.

Hi Unicorn,

 

On this last trade i saw one error :

 

-your firts SD' s entry (even if good after) is wrong cause the skew is near 0 so not short trade but pull the trigger LONG (vwap target) !

 

-After, all good for me.

 

Being "a" Newbie, i believe and wait your comments, explications.

 

Thanks @+

jerry, finding some interesting uses for the longer term hups with options trading. skew is very important in options trading. these are great levels to put credit spreads on and to help you predict when volatility of the options is going to go up or down. for example, when pvp = vwap, volatility seems to get sucked right out of the options. might want to keep an eye on how this relationship acts during options expiration week. from what i have seen, you get pvp = vwap alot and pvp jumping over vwap alot. more than normal. thanks i have enjoyed your posts.

Thanks raa, glad to see that you have found market statistics useful for options trading. I think that's a nice addition to the whole subject

Hi Jerry,

 

I have been following and studying your lessons for several weeks now and am amazed. I primarily trade the ES and have been using divergence to give me a bias to the up or down side, however, adding the VWAP (by the way - thanks for the indicator DBTina, fantastic work) has helped me a lot and your skew methodology appears even better than my indicators.

 

I am wondering if you or anyone else in this thread using your methodology is interested in starting a PalTalk room to call out possible trade setups etc.

 

Again, thank you so much for everything.

 

Cheers, Michael

Jerry,

 

Thank you very much for putting together such a comprehensive pack of lessons on using this approach to trading. I have used VWAP extensively in the past to trade US Stocks but not in the same way that you describe here which has given me new knowledge and approaches.

 

I see from some of your videos that you appear to be using IB as a data source into Ensign. Have you found this to be adequate as I know a few years back that the volume data from IB was way out (up to a factor of 10 times actual) ?

 

I am also curious to hear if this can be used effectively for Forex because getting the actual traded volume for Forex is at best very difficult and the correct VWAP completely relies on accurate volume data.

Paul,

I am glad you find the trading with market statistics threads useful to you. I know I learned a lot by putting them together. From my past experiences as a teacher, I've learned that the best way to try and understand something is to teach it. If you can't teach it, then you don't understand it.

 

As far as IB goes, I have not experienced anything unusual about their volume reports. They seem to be ok for the generation of the volume distibution function

 

I am also curious to hear if this can be used effectively for Forex because getting the actual traded volume for Forex is at best very difficult and the correct VWAP completely relies on accurate volume data.

 

If you don't have volume for forex, you can still use the price distribution function and generate and average price in stead of a volume weighted average price. Should work ok. This can be done in Ensign as well.

JERRY

Hi 333,

 

I think you might be mistaken. IB aggregate ticks soyou might get substancially fewer however they add all the volume into those fewer ticks (if you see what I mean). Long story short fewer ticks, equal volume.

Jerry,

 

That is great that you have found IB to be OK for volume as that was my only concern and if it works for you then it is fine for me. Thanks also for your comments on Forex which I will apply.

 

Blowfish,

 

I think IB must have sorted this out and the only reason I asked was because back in around 2003 I was using IB as well as eSignal and plotting volume for both on US Stocks. There was a very big difference between what I was reading from IB and that of eSignal at the time. It is great though that my concerns are not an issue any more and I am very much looking forward to applying this approach.

 

 

Paul

    • It depends. If you have lots of money that you can buy a house without a loan and if you don't have any parents to sponsor then it is a good idea. Otherwise it might be a bad idea depending where in Canada you are heading to. I earned a good middle income in my home country and I migrated to Vancouver 5 years ago at the age of 35. I had to start right from the bottom, lowest of the low.. Now i am finally earning a middle income in Canada but I still cannot afford to buy a one bedroom apartment. Having left behind friends, family and home, most of the times I think it is not worth it.   In short, do not migrate if you already have a good life in your home country and you are happy. Only migrate to Canada if you really have to leave your home country say there is a war or something really bad. Discrimination still exists here and its really tough for newcomers unless you are super rich. Good luck. David Chong, Quora  
    • This is bigger than the internet. Bigger than mobile. Bigger than social media.   While everyone was distracted by stock market fluctuations and political theater…   Most people have NO IDEA what just happened last week with ChatGPT.   Their new memory feature allows ChatGPT to remember EVERYTHING about you across all your conversations.   Think about that for a minute...   While most tech companies have been collecting mere breadcrumbs about you - your likes, your clicks, your browsing history - OpenAI is now collecting the most valuable dataset in human history: your complete psychological profile.   This is Zuckerberg x 5,000.   The more you use ChatGPT, the more it understands you, becoming a supercharged reflection of yourself that improves at an exponential rate.   Are you a regular ChatGPT user?   Consider whether it’s time to turn off the “you can train on my information” feature. To prevent your data from being used for training while still using the memory feature:   Disable Model Training: Navigate to Settings > Data Controls. Toggle off "Improve the model for everyone". Manage Memory Settings: Go to Settings > Personalization > Memory. Here, you can: Turn off memory entirely. Delete specific memories. Use Temporary Chat for sessions that won't be saved or used for training. Now the investment implications…   Why This is Bigger Than You Think Consider this: the relationship between humans and ChatGPT is evolving beyond a mere tool.   People are now treating these AI assistants as friends, confidants, and even romantic partners.   I'm not making this up - there are already documented cases of people ending real human relationships to pursue “connections” with their AI companions.   A viral Instagram meme shows a person going through life with a glowing, featureless humanoid figure - representing ChatGPT - as their companion.   The post has over 1.1 million likes and comments like "Bro ChatGPT is like my best friend. Ain't even ashamed to say it" with 25,000 likes.   But here's where things get really interesting for investors and entrepreneurs...   Three Things to Watch For starters, hardware is the next big thing for the big players.   The iPhone form factor is dead.   It hasn't meaningfully changed in nearly a decade. The next evolution in hardware will be designed specifically to interface with these AI companions.   OpenAI is already working on hardware with Johnny Ive, the legendary designer behind the iPhone and iPod. But you can’t ignore Elon Musk’s edge here.   So what does all of this mean for you?   The companies that control the personal AI relationships will be worth trillions. OpenAI and Elon Musk will have the coziest moats. We're witnessing the birth of a new internet - one built on agents that can communicate with each other across platforms. Google's new agent-to-agent protocol allows AI agents to work together without sharing internal memories or tools. The hardware companies that create the perfect interface for these AI companions will dominate the next decade of technology. And almost nobody is talking about what this means.   My prediction? Within five years, most people will have a personal AI that knows them better than anyone else. And they will interact with it in ways that seem foreign today.   (And, yes, it will almost certainly have dystopian elements.)   In the meantime, the biggest gains won’t come from household names. And, right now, James is seeing a prime opportunity to invest in the most under-the-radar plays in AI…   For dirt cheap. By Chris C.
