Yes a simple enough way to determine current trend is following the HH, HL or LL, LH patterns. This can be one way to stay with the higher TF trend if we only take long trades say on our entry TF if the higher TF is making HH and HL's. We can also ...

You lost me. Can you clarify what you are asking? Understand trend (althought subjective and trading plan based) and path of least resistance but I can't quite get what you question is asking.

Classix, I appreciate that you took the time to firstly post a chart (especially of a failed trade) but secondly step to the plate and explain why you took the trade. I am a big believer that we learn more and grow more from our failed trades than ...

OK so I see no one else jumped in so... First off let me ask a few questions if I may. What made you enter at the point you did? What about that price at that point in time made a buy attractive to you? Now before moving onto why a buy for me at ...

Yep and as we see price found support (even if temporary) just above the high of that April 3rd 1hr zone which just so happens to be the low of the April 9th UWRB zone (UHV volume by comparison but not so high when compared to the March 19th, April ...

I will reply when I get home and have access to my MT4 station. Only using my phone today so I can't offer a response of any value until later. Will put together a response after unless someone else beats me to the punch.

Well the markets opened with a 40+ pip gap down. Will this play out as a SOS or a SOW? Time will tell...

HG I would take you up on this but then it would be nothing more than you and I having a 2 way conversation with no one else partaking. Doesn't appear that this thread has enough interest anymore even with the few recent posts no real conversation ...

Much of this topic with respect to trend, retracements and background can vary from trader to trader based on the following; TF traded Risk appetite Trade Plan An uptrend versus retrace and SOW versus SOS varies greatly in the perspective between a ...

Just remember that an UT in an uptrend with no real selling after is like a ND in an uptrend... they are both very fickle and cannot be trusted. After the UP there was some small selling but it ended with a slow ranging drift sideways. Taking on ...

Don't trade futures but your 6E chart looks quite similar to my EURUSD chart with my FX broker so I guess I can comment a bit... First question I have is you marked a range on your chart but ended up shorting a ND right at the low of the range and ...

For the purpose of this thread I trade VZA for analyis and VSA for entries. I have covered this in decent detail on this thread and over at Steve's private VSA forum. Basically I apply a fib with L, 50% and H level to UHV bars and look for VSA ...

The forum is a rockin'!!! This is the most life this place has seen since Steve Gill kidnapped everyone and told them his forum was the only cool place to be for VSA. image

No flaw there Liam as the impact system is strange anyway. It's based on number of followers however I don't even really know who 50% of my followers are or how they came to be my followers... so what's that tell you? Where can we find you to ...

I have done some study on ordeflow and order books etc... I have tried a few brokers that offer level 2 depth however again the orders you are seeing are only as good or as large as the orders within their liquidity pools. I have tried a little ...

Hey Carbonado, I too miss the days when this thread was alive and kicking full force. I too came in a bit late to the party however I was fortunate enough to be around for some time while Malc, Dr G, Intel and HG to name few were still quite active ...

Distribution Accumulation Weakness, downward

I'm going out on a limb and guessing that it should go either up or down.

And I would be expecting that some effort is put forth by those asking questions........... I have posted all kinds of chart examples showing how I draw the zones using a fib and also have posted many trade examples both after the fact and also live. ...

Yes that looks correct. I use MT4 and simply apply a Fib from the H to L of the UHV bar. On the Fib I show three levels which are 0, 50 and 100. Look back at my posts which contain charts for many samples of what I do. One thing I should note is ...
