Combine
VSA with something that helps you analyze price and you're golden
Whatever fits your personality then use that. If candlesticks don't fit your personality but bar charts do, then use candles. If you decided
VSA doesn't work with your personality but market profile does, then use that. You will find that the real edge is your ability to be consistent by following your trading plan and embracing uncertainty while expecting to lose money. Preserve your capital and eliminate emotions and you will be successful. I wish you luck!
