No, forex volume will never be the same from provider to provider. It all depends which banks are reporting the transactions.

There was a rumor of FX getting a central exchange. That would be great news for everybody.

For now you have to seek out the best representation, the one with the most banks reporting. I think esignal is the best in that case.

 

Tradeguider has switched over to a new integrated data feed and use realtimedata.com now for their FX data. Not sure if it's any good. If anyone tries it out it would be good to know it's quality.

79.99 RTD and $100 esignal so there's a marginal difference

 

That is the exchange fee for the first instrument, then it is $29.99 for every other, that would be expensive. as I say I have to call them up to clarify.

They're listed here somewhere. You'll have to do a search. I remember the code being posted in VSA I. As I recall that guy didn't use esignal.

Blu-Ray also translated the code in the coding section for other software.

Hi

same signals long

1,3 demand entry ...note spread and volume

2,4 test (or no supply ??)

Sometimes I think VSA is very easy but sometimes is headache

 

http://www.sierrachart.com/userimages/upload_2/1232570472_13_UploadImage.png

 

So you got long at 1 & 2? With strength in the background that was smart. Did you hold all the way intil 3 & 4? Nice work if you did.

first signal I missed, second I took long but I dont entry simply on close num. 4 bar . I want see increase of momentum in my very little 500 V chart - nice move of price and increase ask volume- green rectangle in picture. Profit took after 2 points. I am newbie and I have problem with get out from market. Today I read this thread http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/f30/thoughts-from-a-professional-trader-5281.html post num.6 and I think become "1 point king" with half contracts.

Good idea using the volume chart for entry. They show nicely how much volume comes in in a certain area.

 

2 points is awesome! Don't beat yourself up for not taking more. I used to target 2 points for the longest time until I got better at holding. Plus being able to trade more contracts allows you to scale out and get a nice runner while locking in profit at the same time.

VSA basics. Please see attached chart.

The green candle where the vertical line is--what is this bar? It's not a test, I don't think, looks more like "No Supply" but I'm not sure. It's volume is indeed less than the previous 2 bars. And there is strength in the background in the form of that shakeout 7 bars back. Anyway, comments welcome. Thanks, Taz

Tasuki;

 

Looks like you have a narrow range up candle with volume less than the previous two bars that is closing in the lower portion of its range. These all point to No Demand. However, the next bar is up, which means it is really more indicative of No Buying Pressure.

 

Take a look at the candle just prior to the "shake out" with Ultra High Volume. On this candle, buyers stepped in (demand entered). We know this because the next bar is up. If that candle was truly all selling than then next candle would not be up. But now as price falls back into the range of this heavy buying area we are seeing no buyers on up candles. Simply, dispite the Shake Out, the market is weak not strong.

Attachment shows the rest of the day...and my continued confusion and frustration over this issue. Todd Krueger used to call this the "polar bear in Hawaii". A "No Demand" (the polar bear, N.D. being a bearish signal) showing up where the bloody thing don't belong. Todd used to just dismiss these anomalies, but I think we can do better than that, at least I hope so. Long ago I queried the VSA#1 group as to whether we could come up with a VSA-based logical explanation. Why IS it that No Demand, and No Buying Pressure, so often show up at the beginning of up-moves??? This is when I'd like to get in long, but these contrary signals keep my finger off the trigger, and I miss the move.

 

Anybody got any good advice here?

Tasuki,

After a substantial downtrend, it indicates that the supply has been absorbed on the previous high vol down bar (strength appears on down bars) and now the buyers are able to push prices up without meeting much resistance.

No demand is of more validity after a rapid rise followed by a climax ie. signs of weakness.

You both missed the dark (red) WRB just prior to the candle in question at A. This is a wide spread candle on very high volume closing off the lows with the next candle (A.) up. This is another sign of strength in the market. After seeing this candle, you have to ignore the "weakness" of the next two candles which close up on volume less than the previous two candles. Note that neither of these can be confirmed as no demand since neither of them are followed by a down close. What this effectively means is that the smart money is not yet interested in higher prices and they are certainly not interested in lower ones either.

 

The market drifts sideways on the demand that entered on the WRB. The dark (red) candle prior to D is a no supply. It has volume less than the previous two candles and it is also confirmed with the next candle up (D.). D does not trade higher than the previous candle, so it would not bring you into the market and it trades a bit lower which we don't like to see.

 

The best place to get long is the dark (red) candle after the candle E. It is no supply. The volume is less than the previous two candles and it is confirmed with the next candle closing up. That next candle does not trade any lower which is also a good sign. The entry is taken in one of two places:

 

1. when the high of the no supply is breached.

 

2. at the close of the candle confirming the no supply on the previous candle.

 

I am pretty sure that somewhere in the Master the Markets book, Tom does mention to be careful of low volume up bars at the naissance of a new uptrend.

PP posted metastock code I believe (as JJ says probably in the VSA I thread). BlueRay converted those to TS and removed a couple of redundant conditionals.

 

There is a completely separate code fork that someone did for Amibroker (that is probably here in the code section too). This has been converted to Ninja and is available over at their forum. I believe they called it VPL for some reason. Looked promising to me.

 

There are also a couple of code snippets around but nothing of much consequence.

 

Also, there is at least one set of commercial indicators that lean heavily on Williams stuff. I don't really want to promote them here.

 

Oh and Tom has someone working on a program too ;) shhh.

Spot on analysis. The bar before A (wide spread down with high volume) showed buying, but because of the volume, also some supply. We normally expect a Test of this high volume shortly afterwards. Price moved up and tested at a higher low (slightly unusual, but all the principles were there). As CW said, the bar after E was a lovely Test and entry.

 

The up bars on low volume after the SOS (bars A-C) does seem confusing because of low volume. Why is the market rising on low volume? Is it No Demand? Good question.

 

The basic explanation is that all of the supply has been taken out of the market. In stocks, it's called the floating supply. When suppy has been stripped out of the market at that price level, there is no one selling and thus price moves up easily on light volume. It is an indication of strength.

 

One other clue to this was the sideways movement (bars C-E). After drifting up a bit, price just held its gains (no selling). The down bars in that little range all were narrow spread (little activity) and low volume (No Supply & Testing).

 

A good chart because of the somewhat unusual testing. One to keep in the chart file for future reference.

 

Hope this helps,

 

Eiger

AND I WOULD LIKE ASK:

 

If I am right longer spread on low volume is no buying pressure. Is possible say that it is selling pressure dried up too ??. I am a little confusing from it but ofcourse I understand that when is nobody who wants sell in this level of price only what can do is buying on higher price . But why it calling no buying pressure ??? Or I made some mistake in my analysis ??

      Hey guys , what are the main things you look for to detect if the consolidation area is accumulating or distributing ? 
      1 ) I see springs in top , still markup happens and it becomes accumulation area and vice versa
      2) There is lots of volume absorption in support line and still markdown occurs.
      3) sometimes in market high / low it becomes re-accumulation  / re-distribution
      Is there any clear way to find it ?

    • Date: 11th July 2025.   Demand For Gold Rises As Trump Announces Tariffs!   Gold prices rose significantly throughout the week as investors took advantage of the 2.50% lower entry level. Investors also return to the safe-haven asset as the US trade policy continues to escalate. As a result, investors are taking a more dovish tone. The ‘risk-off’ appetite is also something which can be seen within the stock market. The NASDAQ on Thursday took a 0.90% dive within only 30 minutes.   Trade Tensions Escalate President Trump has been teasing with new tariffs throughout the week. However, the tariffs were confirmed on Thursday. A 35% tariff on Canadian imports starting August 1st, along with 50% tariffs on copper and goods from Brazil. Some experts are advising that Brazil has been specifically targeted due to its association with the BRICS.   However, the President has not directly associated the tariffs with BRICS yet. According to President Trump, Brazil is targeting US technology companies and carrying out a ‘witch hunt’against former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, a close ally who is currently facing prosecution for allegedly attempting to overturn the 2022 Brazilian election.   Although Brazil is one of the largest and fastest-growing economies in the Americas, it is not the main concern for investors. Investors are more concerned about Tariffs on Canada. The White House said it will impose a 35% tariff on Canadian imports, effective August 1st, raised from the earlier 25% rate. This covers most goods, with exceptions under USMCA and exemptions for Canadian companies producing within the US.   It is also vital for investors to note that Canada is among the US;’s top 3 trading partners. The increase was justified by Trump citing issues like the trade deficit, Canada’s handling of fentanyl trafficking, and perceived unfair trade practices.   The President is also threatening new measures against the EU. These moves caused US and European stock futures to fall nearly 1%, while the Dollar rose and commodity prices saw small gains. However, the main benefactor was Silver and Gold, which are the two best-performing metals of the day.   How Will The Fed Impact Gold? The FOMC indicated that the number of members warming up to the idea of interest rate cuts is increasing. If the Fed takes a dovish tone, the price of Gold may further rise. In the meantime, the President pushing for a 3% rate cut sparked talk of a more dovish Fed nominee next year and raised worries about future inflation.   Meanwhile, jobless claims dropped for the fourth straight week, coming in better than expected and supporting the view that the labour market remains strong after last week’s solid payroll report. Markets still expect two rate cuts this year, but rate futures show most investors see no change at the next Fed meeting. Gold is expected to finish the week mostly flat.       Gold 15-Minute Chart     If the price of Gold increases above $3,337.50, buy signals are likely to materialise again. However, the price is currently retracing, meaning traders are likely to wait for regained momentum before entering further buy trades. According to HSBC, they expect an average price of $3,215 in 2025 (up from $3,015) and $3,125 in 2026, with projections showing a volatile range between $3,100 and $3,600   Key Takeaway Points: Gold Rises on Safe-Haven Demand. Gold gained as investors reacted to rising trade tensions and market volatility. Canada Tariffs Spark Concern. A 35% tariff on Canadian imports drew attention due to Canada’s key trade role. Fed Dovish Shift Supports Gold. Growing expectations of rate cuts and Trump’s push for a 3% cut boosted the gold outlook. Gold Eyes Breakout Above $3,337.5. Price is consolidating; a move above $3,337.50 could trigger new buy signals. Always trade with strict risk management.
