Finally, someone who understands that the closing price is not that important. Simple but very insightful to explicitly point out that positioning is far more important because that is where people stand to actually profit or lose money!

Thank you, Brian, this is very helpful. It's very useful that you explain how the execution of large institutional orders is planned behind the scenes. Also, good that you point out that it really matters to look at the indicators which the key market actors use and trade on - regardless of our personal preferences.

[@wenkaiyang1487]

how do you choose to use between vwap and moving average?

[@yoginacharya2150]

Much appreciated 👏🙏

[@jasongoodwin387]

Brian you talk about vwap for levels but how do you find that entry? I wrote an alert based on bb to find outliers in volatility, either on the expansion side (eg to trade into vwap) or contraction (eg at the end of a run) I've got alerts to help find that entry and predict the movement may come soon. That might be something to look at. I've got pine on my blog for it but yeah just outliers on bb on either side of volatility (top to bottom) is a good start.

[@rodriguezolson4290]

Excellent work!

[@sc0or]

With MBLY in that example any indicator would work, cause that was the 5th wave. I traded them quite many. And for me the best indicator was an RSI trend breakout and pull back. Again, if a stock was in the fifth wave.

[@EminiLounge]

"If two people are looking at Andrew's Pitchfork, how useful is that?" Well, that's an interesting question because not many people know about, or are looking at Anchored VWAP yet. I still think it's useful though since it shows who's in control since an important event.

[@hfhfhf11]

But most of the HFT algorithms and almost all institutions looking vwap and anchored vwap. Retail traders only few % of total volume, rest institutions and they look what we look and trade

[@davidporter1039]

His point was that higher volume commercial traders are looking at it as somewhat of a standard. That was the whole point.

My one hour of watching the video from start to finish is not wasted. I actually learned a lot but want to learn more, if you get what I mean. The thing is, I just started studying trading for two days straight now and I know from myself that I have a long way to go before actually mastering the market. Is it okay if I seek assistance to a lot of agencies out there? I'm just afraid that they may take advantage of me. Thanks!

[@RexGoodwin-dr9nt]

It's normat to get scared for asking help from a stranger but it doesn't mean that it will be your wall you build yourself to conclude that having a financial advisors is a bad idea. That's why you need to look for their experience and credibility; which SmartTrader by Robert Linder both had. They have the experience in the market for almost a decade with long-list of credentials. Try to look for them on the net and see for yourself how incredible they are

[@jesseliverless9811]

Keep'em coming, that some good shit

[@user-fe6hm4je8u]

Is it better to use VWAP as a Daily or Weekly "Time Frame" inside the studies strategies section for the VWAP itself?

[@davidduong371]

Amazing 😊😊

[@robinsonvalencia1]

Where is the daily VWAP anchored, at the beginning of regular hours, or from pre-market?... In the case of SPY, is it anchored from the futures opening hour?

[@learningtocrash4030]

When they say 200 or 50 "day" MA, I'm almost sure they mean candle or period and not day. So on a chart where each candle is a minute its the last 200 or 50 minutes that are being averaged, thats why the MA curve changes when you change the chart candle period. I'm not sure if you can get an MA that is actually for the day/hour/minute which can be transposed onto a different time-frame chart. But I'm still learning.

[@loganf4898]

You can definitely get basically every time frame moving average you can think of on a chart. You can put a 21/50/200 day moving average on a 1 min candlestick chart. Conversely, you can put a 50 minute moving average on a daily candlestick chart. Moving averages and exponential moving averages only "work" because enough traders and algos agree that they ~should~ work.

[@justinbridgez]

yes you can. you can edit it where it shows either tthe chart time frame aka what ever youre looking at and if you change time frames it changes as well. or you can make it like say daily or weekly and it will stay there even while on a 1-3-5-10-15min hourly etc etc. hope that helps

[@erikkkkkkk914]

correct

[@BMWE-hm7uz]

​@loganf4898 similar to fib retracements. Its a Self-fulfilling prophecy. Indeed why a lot of patterns work I guess. Think double tops/ bottoms, head and shoulders patterns, SR levels etc

[@GillerHeston]

I have a 3 fund portfolio consisting of 33% S&P, 33% Total stock, and 33% international. I feel a need to focus on complete growth so I went 100% stocks, but does the SP500 and TSM overlap too much to make sense holding both? However I’ve been in the red for a month now. I work hard for my money, so investing is making me a nervous sad wreck. I don’t know if I should sell everything, sit and just wait but watching my portfolio dwindle away is such an eye -sore.

[@rogerwheelers4322]

There are many other interesting stocks in many industries that you might follow. You don't have to act on every forecast, so I'll suggest that you work with a financial advisor who can help you choose the best times to purchase and sell the shares or ETFs you want to acquire.

[@joshbarney114]

I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day investment decisions being guided by an advisor seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using my advisor for over 2years+ and I've netted over 2.8million.

[@FabioOdelega876]

I actually subscribed for a few trading courses but it didn't help much, been getting suggestions to use a proper financial advisor, how did you go about touching base with your coach?

[@joshbarney114]

Actually, I've shuffled through a few advisors in the past, and “Colleen Janie Towe” remains the most resourceful thus far. Her strategy proves profitable, and sustainable both in a bull & bear market. Most likely, her deets can be found on the net, so you can confirm yourself.

[@FabioOdelega876]

Thank you for this tip , I must say Colleen, appears to be quite knowledgeable. After coming across her webpage, I thoroughly went through her resume, and I must say, it was quite impressive. I reached out to her, and I have booked a session with her.

So you would need to enter as close to the VWAP as much as possible for an entry, I would think. Problem is you never know how high or low it will go from VWAP. So you're stuck to your screen? I really need help.

anchoring is VERY subjective, how to choose the right anchoring point?

[@jumpster3283]

In the beginning, he was referring to today's market open (1-day) and yesterday's market open (2-day). As he went on, he was anchoring to all-time highs and pivot-highs to illustrate how they show "hidden" support / resistance levels. He even used a couple of pivot-lows in there. He did mention about being careful in placement as too many or wrong placements might begin to show support / resistance levels where you want to see them, not where they truly are. I think for now, I'm going to use Today and Yesterday's market opening times (9:30am) and see how that works out for me. :)

Well, be careful using this. It is not the price reacting to the VWAP. It's the VWAP that converges into your key liquidity zones. And when that liquidity runs out, i.e. when either the supply or the demand is depleted, then price moves. You just have to determine which of those will gain the upper hand. Bet on the trend?

[@markmcgwiresbackne5705]

My man called closing price the most worthless price? Bruh, is lost in the sauce.

[@se7enthsoul]

I thought of it as the closing price isn't as important as the open or current price movement because you're always worried about where price has been or has moved too. That's what matters and not where we might have stopped at. Close has importance, but that's only for what we really want from price and that's other locations and not where we stopped at. If that makes sense. Imo
