No probs rlite4.
VSA is quite easy to get bogged down in (there are after all hundreds of
different 'official' VSA signals!), but it's really very simple if you
think about what's going on and stick to the basic principles.
For
example, if you see very high volume after a big run up in price with
no further headway made, it will almost always be professional SELLING
coming into the market. Likewise, if you see very high volume after a
big decline in price, it will almost always be professional BUYING
coming into the market. The reasons for this assumption are simple if
you think about what's going on...
Where do you
think the professionals (smart money) are trading? Do you think they
wait for price to rally 150pts on the day, then start buying near the
highs?! Would that represent a good value location, or a good WHOLESALE
location, for them to start working some long inventory?! Of course not -
it would actually be the opposite - i.e. a good retail location to
start working some short inventory. It's the herd (novices) that buy
breakouts to new highs etc, whilst the pro's are selling into that.
Simply having knowledge of that sort of basic market function
is an edge in itself. VSA simply attempts to mechanise these sort of
underlying dynamics, but for me, all you need is a basic understanding
of the general principles behind the signals.
Obviously
the above explanation is generalised and simplified, there is a lot
more to take into account at any one time, and there are of course
exceptions to the rules. For example, high volume after a run up in
price could actually be bullish absorption volume if it's
trying to break out of a supply zone over to the left. The key is
usually looking for whether price is making any headway or not.
Link
these type of basic market observations (to give general bias
direction) with the tools within w59 (to give exact triggers) and you
have the makings of consistent profitability.

- Regarding more info on these tools, Earik has produced countless
videos and instructional documents on all the w59 features. They will
not work on mt4 because many are proprietary... you need to get w59 and
explore them for yourself.
