Technical Analysis (Volume Spread Analysis) - EURUSD [Short Term]

The highlighted bars are indications of major weakness and they come at a level established for a couple months to be a strong resistance level. I would suspect that the market will rebound up temporarily, at least up to 1.3170 before any further down move is possible.

Remember this is short term, this downtrend will not be absorbed by the current stalling action but it will definitely delay it.

Notice the high volume on the highlighted bar closest to the right-hand side of the screen - this coupled with the close being almost in the middle of the bar means there was a significant amount of hidden buying. The 'smart money' (large institutional players) in the market hide there activity with hidden buying and selling.

DO NOT sell before a small move up.

The resistance created in the highlighted area from January must be broken before any further downmove can resume and the current bar configuration, namely the large volume and hidden buying in the bars depicted above, tells us there are not enough sellers present to push below the current level. BUY - temporarily.

Can You tell me how did You learn VSA ?

coz I use You dont use TG, just mt4 and Your analysis seems very pro.

Temporary upmove in EURUSD has commenced as stated and it is clear from the hidden selling in the high volume bars of this small retracement that it will be short lived [Note the highlighted bars which show significantly high volume but close well off their highs]. I expect we will see price dramatically repelled if it gets up to the 1.3170 area (next area of major selling pressure) as was stated yesterday.

I pocketed over 50 pips in this upmove but it is now time to close your buy trades and wait for a solid sell configuration - wait for sellers to take over in force before entering a trade. Basically this is now a waiting game, we must wait until all the weak buying has completely dried up to minimize drawdown before entering a sell.

Next, look for a failure to the upside and sellers to take over.

If we see sellers take over at the current level we can expect a break of the previous support and a drop much older levels, but I suspect we'll see the buyers taken out at higher levels before a drop - maybe 30-40 pips higher - but too risky at this juncture to profit from buys given all the hidden selling.

I learned from the tom williams master the markets book and tradeguider video tutorials. Really Tradeguider is supposed to be a crutch, a learning tool until you can use only volume and bar configuration from any naked chart and trade - so eventually it all becomes second nature. Stick with it and you'll get there.

Tradeguider has an MT4 plugin that is helpful also, you can find it online cracked, I'll try to find it for you.

The down move going towards the major resistance area of 1.3030 - 1.3015 has begun. This is a great opportunity to make 50 pips. It would be a good opportunity to sell here:

Completely agree with you here, that is the ideal situation. However, it is also true that there are opportunities to be had even with tick volume when there are large enough movements in the market. Which futures broker do you use?

Beter look at futures wouldnt look at tick volume at all. All broker dependend and also is more based on atr

Thanks. Looks like selling has dried up and it will not have the supply to power through the major resistance of 1.3030 tonight judging from the appearance of 3 NO SUPPLY bars in the last few hours. When you have tiny bars like that with almost no volume closing near their lows it is called NO SUPPLY and it means exactly what it says, no effort to go lower is present because the smart money are not interested at the moment.

This doesn't mean price will go up, could stay stagnant for a while and go further down later on when supply is gathered but if you like to scalp there is a great opportunity to buy right now at 1.3063 (7:23 PM EST). Should give you at least 20 pips.

Any reason in particular why you didn't enter at the first "No Supply" bar ?

Cheers

Because of the inherent weakness in the market at this point I knew the overall trend was down so if I was playing it totally safe I wouldn't have taken the trade at all so I wanted to be absolutely sure selling had dried up for the moment. Good catch though, I wouldn't have taken the trade soley based on one.

Fair enough. I personally wouldn't have taken this trade since the short term trend is down but had it been one of those days when i was back in front of the screen after a break then i would have taken it at the first NS bar. I guess those TG diamonds are quite useful in trading with the trend.

Cheers

There very well might be a buy opportunity if price floats down to previous lows but the only way to be absolutely sure sellers won't take over at that level is to wait and watch what happens when price gets there. Do not trade in anticipation of something happening trade after the market shows you what IS happening.

For a buy I would need to see some major rejection of a further down move - think massive failure bar like last week with high volume because the selling would have to be absorbed and together with the public pressure to sell volume would be high.

I suspect we won't see any strong buy opportunities however, maybe a small bounce, but it would be too risky to take a buy at this level until something major happens I'd say. More likely is a sell off.

Notice that after last weeks rejection (our buy profits that we took) price has meandered down without much drama, know why? Because the smart money have done their work well, covered the buys and with trap up moves etc. and this is their profit taking mode, meaning price will simply drift down without much resistance and with medium to low volume - that's what I think might happen this week - still in a range of course, but gradually down so any buys would not be a good idea in my opinion (unless we see some major rejection accompanied by high volume).
