Volatility Analysis : The Truth of Secret !!

Recommended Posts

Volatility Analysis : The Truth of Secret !!

 

 

Hello ..

 

 

I have trade FX for some years .. I have come to be convinced that the market is something Relative : Now to Past ..

 

 

I have always thought that S/R zones are the key here .. the problem comes when we really don't have a framework that let us to see the BIG Picture of the market.

 

 

I also get convinced that the Shifts in Supply/Demand are what drives the markets .. It is How we interupt these data regardless How !!!

 

 

Sometimes we really don't know whether the market will move UP or DOWN at some key level : It may break it or bounce from it ..

I beleived that Wave Analysis may have the Right FRAMEWORK at which we can see the Market/ Chart Structure .. I have to beleive that Volume/Volatility interact combinely to frame those Repetitive Waves ..

 

 

I then come to beleive that Waves are something Subjective !!!

 

Here Where I start to care about Volume/Volatility ..

 

Volatility Analysis is the thing that really MAY have my lost Framework beside Waves ..

 

 

I come here to make it Right .. Thats me : I want to make it RIGHT ..

 

 

Here is my questions that may light my eyes :

 

1- What is the diffrence between WRBs Analysis and Volatility Analysis ? or , let me say : What is the RELATIONSHIP ?

 

2- Can VA or WRB help us to define :

Reversals ?

Congestion Zones ?

Breakouts BEFORE they happened : I mean as Price still Rangebound ?

Real Trend of the Market ?

 

3- Can WRB or VA really make my Mind Automatically able to READ the PRICE ACTION only ?

 

4- How can we Interupt Shifts in Supply/Demand using WRB / VA Analysis ?

 

 

Those are What comes to my Mind here ..

 

Those are what really makes our Mind more Powerfull ...

 

 

 

Wish to hear from you ALL ..

Well, May be you should try to look at Market Profile as a structure where both WRB and increasing volatility can be explained as market's attempt to move away from Value Area caused by initiative buying and selling ?

Market Profile will also provide some answers to your other three questions.

Could always look at Narrow Range bars (NR) which after all are a contraction of volatility. We all know what usually follows!

 

I think getting a handle on price action in general is perhaps the most valuable lesson a trader can learn.

One popular way is using Historical Volatility, which is a measure of price fluctuation over time. Historical volatility uses historical price data to empirically measure the volatility of a market or instrument in the past. The value rendered by a historical volatility study is the standard deviation of bar-to-bar price differences.

The other popular method is based on Tony Crabel’s classic study of range expansion, DayTrading with Short Term Price Patterns and Opening Range Breakout, predicts volatility through patterns of wide and narrow price bars.

Without getting into any rocket science, for practical trading purposes, the Keltner channel is a good tool. I believe Walterw uses it to identify higher volatility leading into trend condition in one of his thread. I use it for both trend or counter-trend(reversion to the mean) conditions.

Larry Connors talked about using historical volatility in his book "Advanced Trading Strageties". He would look for stocks where the 6 and 10 day HV had crossed below the 100 day HV and put them on a watch list. I've looked at this over the years and it's a pretty good way to find issues that are consolidating and have the potiential to move in the short term.

I have observed volatility to be one of the more predictable cycles in the market. How are you quantifying it?

 

 

 

As you have noted such ..

 

May you share us with those observations about Volatility Cycles ?

    • How's about other crypto exchanges? Are all they banned in your country or only Binance?
    • Be careful who you blame.   I can tell you one thing for sure.   Effective traders don’t blame others when things start to go wrong.   You can hang onto your tendency to play the victim, or the martyr… but if you want to achieve in trading, you have to be prepared to take responsibility.   People assign reasons to outcomes, whether based on internal or external factors.   When traders face losses, it's common for them to blame bad luck, poor advice, or other external factors, rather than reflecting on their own personal attributes like arrogance, fear, or greed.   This is a challenging lesson to grasp in your trading journey, but one that holds immense value.   This is called attribution theory. Taking responsibility for your actions is the key to improving your trading skills. Pause and ask yourself - What role did I play in my financial decisions?   After all, you were the one who listened to that source, and decided to act on that trade based on the rumour. Attributing results solely to external circumstances is what is known as having an ‘external locus of control’.   It's a concept coined by psychologist Julian Rotter in 1954. A trader with an external locus of control might say, "I made a profit because the markets are currently favourable."   Instead, strive to develop an "internal locus of control" and take ownership of your actions.   Assume that all trading results are within your realm of responsibility and actively seek ways to improve your own behaviour.   This is the fastest route to enhancing your trading abilities. A trader with an internal locus of control might proudly state, "My equity curve is rising because I am a disciplined trader who faithfully follows my trading plan."

    • SELF IMPROVEMENT.   The whole self-help industry began when Dale Carnegie published How to Win Friends and Influence People in 1936. Then came other classics like Think And Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, Awaken the Giant Within by Tony Robbins toward the end of the century.   Today, teaching people how to improve themselves is a business. A pure ruthless business where some people sell utter bullshit.   There are broke Instagrammers and YouTubers with literally no solid background teaching men how to be attractive to women, how to begin a start-up, how to become successful — most of these guys speaking nothing more than hollow motivational words and cliche stuff. They waste your time. Some of these people who present themselves as hugely successful also give talks and write books.   There are so many books on financial advice, self-improvement, love, etc and some people actually try to read them. They are a waste of time, mostly.   When you start reading a dozen books on finance you realize that they all say the same stuff.   You are not going to live forever in the learning phase. Don't procrastinate by reading bull-shit or the same good knowledge in 10 books. What we ought to do is choose wisely.   Yes. A good book can change your life, given you do what it asks you to do.   All the books I have named up to now are worthy of reading. Tim Ferriss, Simon Sinek, Robert Greene — these guys are worthy of reading. These guys teach what others don't. Their books are unique and actually, come from relevant and successful people.   When Richard Branson writes a book about entrepreneurship, go read it. Every line in that book is said by one of the greatest entrepreneurs of our time.   When a Chinese millionaire( he claims to be) Youtuber who releases a video titled “Why reading books keeps you broke” and a year later another one “My recommendation of books for grand success” you should be wise to tell him to jump from Victoria Falls.   These self-improvement gurus sell you delusions.   They say they have those little tricks that only they know that if you use, everything in your life will be perfect. Those little tricks. We are just “making of a to-do-list before sleeping” away from becoming the next Bill Gates.   There are no little tricks.   There is no success-mantra.   Self-improvement is a trap for 99% of the people. You can't do that unless you are very, very strong.   If you are looking for easy ways, you will only keep wasting your time forgetting that your time on this planet is limited, as alive humans that is.   Also, I feel that people who claim to read like a book a day or promote it are idiots. You retain nothing. When you do read a good book, you read slow, sometimes a whole paragraph, again and again, dwelling on it, trying to internalize its knowledge. You try to understand. You think. It takes time.   It's better to read a good book 10 times than 1000 stupid ones.   So be choosy. Read from the guys who actually know something, not some wannabe ‘influencers’.   Edit: Think And Grow Rich was written as a result of a project assigned to Napoleon Hill by Andrew Carnegie(the 2nd richest man in recent history). He was asked to study the most successful people on the planet and document which characteristics made them great. He did extensive work in studying hundreds of the most successful people of that time. The result was that little book.   Nowadays some people just study Instagram algorithms and think of themselves as a Dale Carnegie or Anthony Robbins.
