What's the point of posting trades if you're not going to contribute to people's learning? Are you just proving that Joel is real or something?

I think shep is in a tough spot. As a student of Joel, he may be under some non-disclosure restrictions and/or does not want to detract from Joel's business. I realize we all want things disclosed in the forum, but we also have to respect shep if he cannot provide specific details.

I would suggest taking the free trial that Joel offers to show his trading in a live environment. If anyone does, provide a review here for others: http://www.traderslaboratory.com/for...with-3422.html

I think that's fair enough BF, and I think Shep has shown that what he is doing is working. I suppose we can all have a look at his charts and interpret them too. Given that this thread is all about learning the best place for posting future trades if disclosure of rules etc. is a problem is probably in a journal/blog, the facilities for which are also provided on this forum?

Edit: I should add that Shep has elaborated on his trades in some of his earlier posts, which was really valuable.

Here's a trade I made this morning. Very high volume downbar with the next bar up shows buying on the down move. The next bar is a no supply, volume less than the previous two, go long.
I'm sure PP would be backing me up on this one.

I exited just prior to the pivot as a personal preference because often there is supply there.

its not a non-disclosure issue, its just good faith, i owe joel a lot, the only reason i was posting trades was to prove that trading of price and volume works, and one should keep studying what works.

Fair enough.

Hi Tingull (starter of the thread), or whoever moderates this thread;

Is it not time to make VSA thread number 2 (the son of VSA - or whatever) ?

Why are you guys letting threads become huge monsters ?

Unicorn,

We tried that, but no one participated in the second VSA thread entitled VSA II and continued posting on this one. Therefore VSA II, the thread was scrapped.

The VSA thread is not really that big.
