Gordon, First thing (A) down trend would need confirmation to go long which you do not get on next bar, it close down , yes, it closes of the lows but if that up bar was buying the next bar should not be down, so it must have had selling within it, then on the third bar it close way below the low of A, this is still in a down trend.
and again on (b) its an up bar on high volume but the next bar closes lower than prior low, no way am i looking to go long, i would need to see some confirmation that the down trend was over.
path of least resistance was down all day.

Hi Gordon G, remember weakness apppears on up bars not down bars, you have marked all down bars with volume less than previous two not up bars.
so simply put,.
down trend looking to go short look for weakness in up bars
up trend looking to go long look for strength in down bars
regards

agian thanks every one, just saying what i am seeing, it is nice to see fellow traders in here who have been mentored by joel, Hi guys !!! as much as i trade of VSA i owe a lot more to joel in intoducing and teaching me about Richard Ney and his theory of market manipulation, merchandising and how the specialist move markets so that they can buy low and sell high, i find this and weight to VSA.
