Ahh I get you now mate

Was your original SL at the low of the 2br mate? Looks like its running ok now. Or were you looking to exit at the first SOW?

i see what you did there mate. What you say makes sense, and does answer most of the comments I put across. It also potentially gives a conclusion as to why the thread maybe died off over the years, and also why VSA doesnt seem as "popular" as ...

Interesting chats from you guys. RickM's comments regarding his previous experiences using "standard" VSA got me thinking.... Ive noticed that forex and forex education has become alot more mainstream over the past 2-3 years. Prop firms seem to be a ...

True mate, I could be missing the smaller picture. Just trying to justify the loss.

Also if I'm using VZA, then we are in a slight area of "No mans Land". We are also breaking structure to the downside, which does add to the bearish intent.

This is what I see mate, I just want to say that its easy to see in hindsight and I probably wouldnt notice this at the time. H4 (My Screenshot)- We appear to be In what looks like a distribution (mushroom top), there is also SSL (sell side ...

Just thought I would add that the proximal line of the OB lines up with the high of YHVZ

Hey guys just wondering If I can draw on some of your experience. With VSA Ive been trying to work out the method and timeframes that suit my lifestyle and trading personality. From what I see there are traders here from all timezones, and I ...

This is just what I see, the experienced guys will have a better explanation/opinion. I reckon 5 is a No Supply - Down bar, narrow spread, closing in the middle with volume less that the previous 2 bars. The fact that it made a LL would give it some ...

Cheers mate, yeah maybe "rushed" was the wrong word. I opened the charts and basicaly found "what I want to see, where I want to see it" almost instantly which doesnt often happen. But yeah taking 10 mins beforehand seems like good advice. In ...

Nice one mate, yeah I got to the charts a bit late and missed some good setups, I literally turned on my laptop, marked off the newest H1 HVC/trigger from london, down to M5 and saw the entry. I maybe rushed into it a bit, im still working out the ...

Thanks Freemind, some good points there which I'll take on board.

EURUSD (Hit SL) This was my trade for today, any comments would be appreciated. I literally jumped on the charts and saw this setup. I noticed price retracing to the London H1 HVZ so I switched to M5 to look for a possible entry. 1. Effort to rise. ...

Nice trade. I probably wouldnt have had the confidence to take your first entry, although im sure it will come with some experience. I like when it broke out and retraced back to the hinge and reacted there, I also see a hidden test, making a LL ...

Thanks HG, Yeah I had the original HVC marked, as well as the newer WRB, I deleted the first one just for clarity. But although the one I marked had lesser volume, it stood out to me due to its wide range, and also the confluence of levels. Yeah ...

vsa with Malcolm

HG, was wondering your opinion on this one mate. I was watching this old trigger line (dotted), and the HVC 50% for a reaction. Noticed a squat bar forming which was up for most of the candle duration and was waiting to place a pending order for a ...

vsa with Malcolm

The candle I entered on might actually look like a no supply due to it being a down candle, but I reckon that could be "a polar bear in Hawai" . I saw it more like a test of the HVC/Trigger number due to the spread/wick. The candle also closed lower ...

vsa with Malcolm

Yeah i think the bar was more of a reverse hidden test (if thats a thing ) a bit like a hidden test in an up move, only the opposite way round. My sell stop was about 1-2 pips below the low of the candle, its a bit hard to see but the next ...

vsa with Malcolm

Ahh sorry mate, yeah I deleted the post. I think I answered a couple of my own questions to be honest I went over the trade a few times and think I realised my mistakes so didnt want to waste peoples time with having ...
