Jerry, in your global strategy, when you talk to dynamic HUB, can you quote the virgin POC (of steidlmayer) too ?

 

Thanks.

 

Alex

 

If you are asking, do I include previous PVP's as dynamic HUP, the answer is yes. In fact, if I see price action approaching a PVP, I will just stand aside and not trade there. If I am already in a trade and price action approaches a PVP I will usually exit there. As far as the PVP's being virgin or not, I don't make a distinction between virgin or non virgin ones.

Kuky,

If you have the latest ensign version (Nov 13 version), you will find the VWAP and SD as one of the studies. Just right click on your chart and choose studies. At the bottom of the list is the VWAP. To get the PVP, choose the price histogram study and set it to volume. The PVP will appear as a red line on the histogram

Found these great threads lately.

 

Just wonder:

When I used to look at technical analysis, the indicators use to leg the real action. My understanding was: most traders are familiar with the technical-analysis and use it - causing the indicators to become less efficient.

 

If many are going to use the tecniques presented here, would it still work?

The pvp is a dangerous point, i understand now why !

It is as it that I go trade, thank you still for your advices.

 

Best regards.

Ofer, what's presented here in these threads is not a "method", but a way of viewing the price and volume distribution. No matter how many traders looked at the volume distribution, the distribution would still be valid, since it represents the statistics of all trades that have taken place. There would still be a PVP, a VWAP and a SD. How you use that information is highly personal depending on your trading style and objectives

This is the ES price action from yesterday, excellent trading day, with 1,2,5,10 Days VWAP & SD and 1 Month (this is my history depth). Nice price action next to previous SD HUPs marked in ellipses. Todays statistics are solid lines and longer period are the dash lines.

 

 

Cheers

Hello Jerry and fellows;

 

My indicators are not be perfect yet; thus I don't have HUPs from previous days on my chart.

 

This is today's price action on ES. I am still learning this methodology.

Jerry I would appreciate your comments.

 

I would also appreciate a chart with HUPs. I trust that they would provide further guidance for trade management.

 

cheers.

Unicorn.

This is the Volume Statistics chart for NQ.

 

I would appreciate your comments, on the trades that I can identify.

 

My understanding of the concepts applied to NQ price action today is:

When the VWAP is close to the PVP, on the other side of price action, expect oscillations, do nothing.

For advanced traders only: If you expect a breakout, you can enter on the breakout of sd1 or sd2, trade direction away from VWAP.

QUESTION: Could this be applied today after 14:16 EST?? By the way, chart time is EST + 7hours.

 

Jerry, I would appreciate your NQ chart with HUPs and your remarks on the guidance that HUPs would have provided to the NQ trade management.

 

Thank you.

Cheers.

Unicorn.

Finally, today's ER chart.

 

I would appreciate your comments on the trades that I can identify.

 

Jerry, I would appreciate any suggestions for exits, in the case that price does not reach the next sd target. Would you use an indicator?

 

Thank you.

Take care.

Unicorn.

Hi Unicorn,

 

On this last trade i saw one error :

 

-your firts SD' s entry (even if good after) is wrong cause the skew is near 0 so not short trade but pull the trigger LONG (vwap target) !

 

-After, all good for me.

 

Being "a" Newbie, i believe and wait your comments, explications.

 

Thanks @+

jerry, finding some interesting uses for the longer term hups with options trading. skew is very important in options trading. these are great levels to put credit spreads on and to help you predict when volatility of the options is going to go up or down. for example, when pvp = vwap, volatility seems to get sucked right out of the options. might want to keep an eye on how this relationship acts during options expiration week. from what i have seen, you get pvp = vwap alot and pvp jumping over vwap alot. more than normal. thanks i have enjoyed your posts.

Hi Jerry,

 

I have been following and studying your lessons for several weeks now and am amazed. I primarily trade the ES and have been using divergence to give me a bias to the up or down side, however, adding the VWAP (by the way - thanks for the indicator DBTina, fantastic work) has helped me a lot and your skew methodology appears even better than my indicators.

 

I am wondering if you or anyone else in this thread using your methodology is interested in starting a PalTalk room to call out possible trade setups etc.

 

Again, thank you so much for everything.

 

Cheers, Michael

Jerry,

 

Thank you very much for putting together such a comprehensive pack of lessons on using this approach to trading. I have used VWAP extensively in the past to trade US Stocks but not in the same way that you describe here which has given me new knowledge and approaches.

 

I see from some of your videos that you appear to be using IB as a data source into Ensign. Have you found this to be adequate as I know a few years back that the volume data from IB was way out (up to a factor of 10 times actual) ?

 

I am also curious to hear if this can be used effectively for Forex because getting the actual traded volume for Forex is at best very difficult and the correct VWAP completely relies on accurate volume data.

Paul,

I am glad you find the trading with market statistics threads useful to you. I know I learned a lot by putting them together. From my past experiences as a teacher, I've learned that the best way to try and understand something is to teach it. If you can't teach it, then you don't understand it.

 

As far as IB goes, I have not experienced anything unusual about their volume reports. They seem to be ok for the generation of the volume distibution function

 

I am also curious to hear if this can be used effectively for Forex because getting the actual traded volume for Forex is at best very difficult and the correct VWAP completely relies on accurate volume data.

 

If you don't have volume for forex, you can still use the price distribution function and generate and average price in stead of a volume weighted average price. Should work ok. This can be done in Ensign as well.

JERRY

Hi 333,

 

I think you might be mistaken. IB aggregate ticks soyou might get substancially fewer however they add all the volume into those fewer ticks (if you see what I mean). Long story short fewer ticks, equal volume.

Jerry,

 

That is great that you have found IB to be OK for volume as that was my only concern and if it works for you then it is fine for me. Thanks also for your comments on Forex which I will apply.

 

Blowfish,

 

I think IB must have sorted this out and the only reason I asked was because back in around 2003 I was using IB as well as eSignal and plotting volume for both on US Stocks. There was a very big difference between what I was reading from IB and that of eSignal at the time. It is great though that my concerns are not an issue any more and I am very much looking forward to applying this approach.

 

 

Paul

    • 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.
