Playing with the VMAR`s open research

Recommended Posts

Forex tends to trend upward for long periods.

But at the top of the market it can go sideways for a month or 3.

Falls used to be sharper and briefer.

The last few months have not been typical of the last few years.

Uncertainty has replaced confidence for GBP.

Noticing AusUsd tends to be bull during Aus open, while other prices are falling, AusUsd seems to be trying to swim against the tide.

So Aus open might be the better time to buy AusUsd if other prices are rising (eg GbpJpy), and after Aus hours might be better for shorts if other pairs are falling. Not sure what to think yet.

On the other hand, just saw the Aud bulls get barBQ'd, 5min chart is like 40pips in 15 min, just 3 bars. 54 pips from a Walter entry. Thank you Walter.

Your Icon entry system is brilliant, about as good as it gets.

 

I would agree Bruce that we are clearly getting some nice optimization here on timing... I am still playing a lot with inputs an combinations...

 

My question here : would the base line of fantailvma3 be the tightest we can get ?... (near to close) cheers Walter.

There are at least two ways ADX to VMA might be done better, but I don't know if the difference will be obvious for the trader. I would like to do them anyway just to get things optimized. Can't say yet. I hope the first of these will make a visible difference.

In a sense, every trade is part of an outswing or an inswing on the longer picture.

 

Correct ¡¡¡ thats a basic principle from Drummond Push / Refresh... and it organizes the overall reading of whats happening... your 1 hour chart is the best one to see this big picture... from there on coming down to 5 min and 1 min for timing puposes is the best shot... I converge with you Bruce on this great aerial view of the market... cheers Walter.

Let me show you what could had been my reading... (iconic type)...

 

 

On the 5 min with the fantailvma1 you can see that the black line takes off to the downside, after long erratic HE action... then he makes a sweet pullback and the 1 min timing happens as the fantailvma3 yellow line gets back out of the rainbow...

a nice leading entry.... notice the possible logic scalper exit... aint that nice.. cheers Walter.

This is a similar case early today... you can see on the 5 min this laddering going on after some HE action market decides to continue down... NOW on the 1 min... I never get a pullback... all laddering down... here timing should be difernt OR we would need a tighter vma version that could pullback some for more confidence...

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=2928&stc=1&d=1190082918

 

but this type of trend continuation on 5 min had been today a great example of how market makes a pause and then he tells you with vmar on 5 min when exactly he will resume the party... let me make video on this... cheers Walter.

Gee just a simple thing like selling the peak, right after it has dropped down to green on 5 min is working at the moment, how easy is that?

Helps if there is a trend, then its just fall, HE, fall, HE, fall....

Hey Walter

Instead of buying a coconut island in the Pacific,

how about aiming a bit higher?

Like Aus is the smallest continent and they grow pineapples there too hehe

Totally Rock my friend ¡¡ once you start seeing the power... its outstanding ¡¡ can you make for me some averiguations of Aus GDP... we may buy it in a couple of years.. jejeje... but still the small Island could suggest less stress... jejjee....

 

 

let me add here another super video on this 5 min laddering trades... I believe its a nice "Iconic" combination of the 5 min vmar laddering readings with the powerfull 1 min timings... I am feeling some progress today... cheers Walter.

Yes, the icon is there on multiple scales and time frames.

Different approaches may suit different market conditions.

Fx can be very unfriendly, it can also be very friendly.

When they say the trend is your friend, they aint kidding.

 

You got good eyes Walter, nice vid.

 

So first I spam the trade thread with techie stuff.

Now we both spam the tech thread with trades....

 

How about a Greek island in the Med, nice clear blue water?

GBPJPY has passed a recent historical low and approaches another one.

There is the chance of a big rise trend happening and AudUsd will surely go up if that happens.

Somehow I think more down is likely, but it could be mixed up or it could be a thrust through the barrier. Maybe boring, maybe hot.

 

Anyway, have you told Dr J about your thing with bananas and your dislike for pineapples yet....? How do you feel about dates and olives then?

A few days back you posted a pix of a fast reversal in 5min that "turbo" was too slow to give you a good entry price on.

Well I just saw it happen in GBPJPY where I know what it means on this occasion at least, likely to be the top price for some time to come.

 

Maybe if you see it happen on 5 min, remember to look back later to see if it marked a high.

 

I took entries based on my system and doubled up when VMA gave supporting signals. Waited to see if AudUsd would do the same fast turn but it seemed more normal.

 

Four demo trades, $500 and just started...hehe

See if I get egg on my face...

Hard to think straight with new stuff happening.

Should have said this is a double burn move, like icon.

First the bears get burned with a counter trend.

Then the bulls get burned by a fast reversal at the top.

Nice $ for the bank.

But it tends to confirm that the original trend is solid, you know what I'm saying already hehe.

    • Date: 29th March 2024. GBPUSD Analysis: The Pound Trades Higher But For How Long? The global Stocks Markets are closed due to Easter Friday (Good Friday). The NASDAQ continued to follow the sideways trend while other indices again rose. The SNP500 reaches an all-time high, but the NASDAQ remains under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple. The Euro continues to trade lower against all major currencies including the US Dollar, Euro and Japanese Yen. The British Pound is the best performing currency during this morning’s Asian session. However, investors are largely fixing their attention on this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. GBPUSD – The Pound Trades Higher but For How Long? The GBPUSD is slightly higher than the day’s open and is primary due to the Pound’s strong performance. At the moment, the British Pound is increasing in value against all major currencies. However, the US Dollar Index is also trading 0.10% higher and for this reason there is a slight conflict here. If investors wish to avoid this conflict, the EURUSD is a better option. This is because, the Euro depreciating against the whole currency market avoiding the “tug-of-war” scenario. The GBPUSD is trading slightly lower than the 2-month’s average price and is trading at 49.10 on the RSI. For this reason, the price of the exchange is at a “neutral” level and is signalling neither a buy nor a sell. The day’s price action and future signals are possibly likely to be triggered by this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. Analysts expect the Core PCE Price Index to read 0.3% which is slightly lower than the previous month but will result in the annual figure remaining at 2.85%. The PCE rate is different to the inflation rate and the Fed aims for a rate between 1.5% to 2.00%. Therefore, even if the annual rate remains at 2.85%, as analysts expect, it would be too high for the Fed. If the rate increases, even if only slightly, the US Dollar can again renew bullish momentum and the stock market can come under pressure. This includes the SNP500. Investors are focused on the publication of data on the UK’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the last quarter of 2023: the quarterly figures decreased by 0.3%, and 0.2% over the past 12-months. This confirms the state of a shallow recession and the need for stimulation. The data, combined with a cooling labor market and a steady decline in inflation, increase the likelihood that the Bank of England will soon begin interest rate cuts. In the latest meeting the Bank of England representatives did not see any members vote for a hike. USA500 – The SNP500 Rises to New Highs, But Cannot Hold Onto Gains! The price of the SNP500 rises to an all-time high, before correcting 0.33% and ending the day slightly lower than the open price. Nonetheless, the index performs better than the NASDAQ which came under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple which hold a higher weight compared to the SNP500. For the SNP500, these 3 stocks hold a weight of 9.25%, whereas the 3 stocks make up 14.63% of the NASDAQ. The SNP500 is also supported by ExxonMobil’s gains due to higher energy prices. The market will remain closed on Friday due to Easter. However, the market will reopen on Monday for the US and investors can expect high volatility. Investors will also need to take into consideration how the PCE Price Index and the changed value of the US Dollar is likely to affect the stock market next week.
