Where is a good place to start learning about VSA?
I am currently taking the cisco short course but after some reading on TL I am starting to think that it might be a waste as I could have received the same info from Mind Over Markets.

How accurate would you say VSA is at finding tops/bottoms?

Thanks,
Jonathan
Just a quick post.

While this is not the best time of day/night to trade, we often can see good set ups.

Here we force Professional Money to show itself at the POC.

Note that we get a red paintbar. This bar closes on its low with higher volume. The low close tells us that this is a weak bar. The next bar, however, is narrow and has greater volume with an equal close. A close that is also in the middle of the range. There is demand (buying) in this bar.

Two bars later, we see a narrow bar that closes on its lows on volume less than the previous two bar- NO SUPPLY. Perfect place to get long. Tom Williams really likes this type of set-up.

Two more bars later, we see a bar that closes lower than the previous bar, closes on or near its high, makes a lower low, and has volume less than the prior two bars-THIS IS A TEST.

The Smart Money is testing for supply. If you missed the first entry, here's another chance to get on board.

Catching tops and bottoms is nice, but getting into a trade knowing you're on the same side as the Smart Money is better.
