Volume--- how to use it and WHY

  1. I'll agree with the last three sentences and agree with your point.

  2. See, you're taking a snapshot, not understanding the snapshot, and then rubbishing what you don't understand.

  3. The two are inextricably intertwined.
    Would price move without volume?
    Would you trade at any price?
    To dismiss one .................... is
    like gouging out one eye because
    you have another. You can see still but
    you'll lose "depth" perception.

  4. The B and R above represents the color of the Volume Bars as they relate to Price trending. For example, in a down trend (R2R 2 B 2 R) the sequences of Decreasing Red Volume to Increasing Red Volume followed by Decreasing Black Volume and completing with Increasing Red Volume. These Volume sequences develop as Price moves from Point One to Point Two to Point Three and off toward the end of the particular trend. These same sequences form on each and every trading fractal, in each and every market.

  5. Bonds from yesterday.

    Price & volume joined in a chart. Chart increment is 49 Volume. I find it a nice Intraday Chart.
    Right side chart is for trading decisions/entries and left solely is for strength. Large arrows on both charts match for times; entries, exits and reversals.

  6. TOTAL Bilge! Where did you read that? SURELY you didn't come up with those words yourself.... ??

    It seems that "volume believers" are like Obama supporters.... they just turn off their f^cking brains!

    You want to make more money, consistently? Forget volume and trade on price alone.

  7. im sorry, professor, but i simply don't get it. annotating charts isnt going to help anyone trade. you or no user of this method will demonstrate it on "collective 2" or even make real time calls here. pretty charts that show what should have been done really don't make any sense. it's the same thing over and over again, how about some meat to the claims?

  8. Nope, the other way around. Mainstream 'PA' players will be drawing lines all over the chart and looking for 'confirmations' to go in,....That is SH!T! Real PA is about understanding sentiment and not lines.

    Understanding volume can get a player into the market without the price sentiment being realised on the chart.

  9. You will never get it.

    Collective 2 be damned I offered to show you live on more than one occasion and you've always made some comment like I could fake it and preform some sort of magic with live data and live charts.
    Give it a rest. You continue to quote 40 year old studies to back your calls. This is the 21st century you closed minded twitterite. You just can't believe that advances could have been made in analysis since then!
    As I stated earlier. Get back on your horse and ride away.
    You are "thick" and its a complete waste of time arguing with you until you either test this yourself or have the balls to watch it traded live.
    PERIOD.
    Go rub your E wave lamp and make your predictions based on inconsistent noise based charts. You add liquidity to the market that I require to make my profits.

    I need to go play in the yard.

  10. Now that's just cruel. Why the drive-by? I have much respect for your market-related observations, but it would appear that you have slipped and fallen on the political portion of your brain. And, evidently, you can't get up. :p
