nice trade. a bounce off the IBH should have the DIBL as a target - 3490ish. it seems price as stalled there twice today, and on the 2nd push up the volume has been decreasing. add that to a now-term down trend and I personally wouldn't expect much ...

Hi, I noticed a small issue on my indi this morning, it seems the text in the upper right corner was not updated with the latest IB ranges today. Not sure why yet as I haven't looked into it, but easy to fix by simply changing timeframes and the ...

pivotal point? — morning! I just couldn't stay away form the charts before heading off to the airport... looks like EU is at a pivotal point now (H4 shown). It finally reached the naked weekly POC around 3460, and is now trading close to that ...

Hi bandung! Your MP indi is by far the slickest i've seen for MT4. out of curiosity, are you using volume to measure the profile width, or time? many of the MP profile indi's i've come across are time based which throws things off due to asia ...

ok ok one more — this is probably the best description i'm come across so far regarding LVN's "You can imagine high-volume and low-volume nodes as almost like gravity. There's more gravity in the high-volume nodes and in the low-volume nodes ...

one more — ok last post for real this time... frankkn, i seem to have hijacked your thread this week, sorry. not so much the next two weeks as I have a couple of business trips that will keep me away from trading...or at least from posting ...

EU daily — last one before the weekend. EU daily. posted same on the VSA thread, but here are my market structure related comments. notice how EU is now back at the LVN (low volume node). this is an area of low activity. Everytime price has ...

not sure what to call that bar - and the name does not matter either- , but its times like that where you want to zoom out a bit for clarity. If oyu look at the M15, you essentially have a UT bar - a bar with massive relative volume that closes in ...

yep, exactly what i saw, but didn't react to it. Damn emotions need to trade like a robot - emotionless. Now EU is back testing that trigger. if there's a ND now would you trade that given time of day/week?

there are always 2 sides to a coin right? The wicks certainly don't look good, but those last 3 weeks price is drifting down on lowering volume...

i plan to, but hadn't thought of markers for LVN's, that's a good idea. I've noticed the market profile indi i use is time based and not volume based, which throws things off due to asia being in a general area of price for more time but with less ...

EU — EU still holding the DIBL. One would now expect a bounce up to around the IBL and watch reaction there. If that doesn't hold, a normal expectation would be a continuation below the DIBL because the NY IB is narrow. BUT, today is friday, ...

indeed promising. if you put it on your EU chart, look back 2 weeks (or however long you set your DaysBack input. price holds those lines practically everytime - especially the DIBH/L. When it doesn't, for example Tuesday's and thursday's asian ...
