Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP)

Put Your Speculators On!This head and shoulders pattern could be just pure speculation at this point. In fact, let me reword that.. this IS speculation based on the fact that I missed the lows and psychologically, I'm really hoping this comes back to shore so I can get back on the boat with everyone else. I do however do my technical analysis in advance and set alerts at levels like you should do and if it plays out then great if not there's always the opposite idea too. We move onto the next one. For now though what I'm looking at is BITGET:ADAUSDT.P has closed the daily candle back inside the value area high ( VAH ) of the range they just left. I am now in a waiting game to see what happens with the second candle close but we just had a 7.5% drop from that value area high (white dots) and the weekly level. The purple line is the previous Monthly VWAP (volume weighted average price) which when you go down to a lower timeframe it's actually touched (Just doesn't look like that here). The yellow line is the previous Weekly VWAP which we had confluence with at the weekly level and the value area high and also back tested a couple of hours ago. The blue bars are to show the 21% from the top of the head down to the neck of the head and shoulders pattern and then a repeated 21% from the neck to complete the pattern right into a point of control ( POC ) from a very high timeframe, I'm talking years. If we start to lose some levels here like $0.35ish and back test it, I'll probably just wait to lose the POC and then see if we get the drop down into that area of confluence below at around $0.26. I'm far too broke to be gambling so I'd rather wait and reward myself with a little bit of patience, who knows, it could just happen quickly but “Uptober” isn’t starting off that well so far. I won't be looking for any long trades unless we can reclaim that weekly level and value area high. Targets would be the weekly level above with confluence from the high timeframe value area high and anchored VWAP from the all-time high (Green line). This is not financial advice. This is just an idea and some slight education to put out there for anybody that's feeling a little bit lost about what they're seeing on the charts.

LCID SHORT on VWAP rejecting price rise.In my previous idea of January 29, I bought LCID as it broke out of a falling wedge on news from Saudi Arabia fixing supply chain and production issues for body parts. LCID ascended the following day to fall down on rejection from the mean VWAP band line anchored in mid- December. On the 4H chart, another smaller and more condensed falling wedge is found and price is moving down toward the one standard deviation line below the mean VWAP ( the jagged blue line ) which is now horizontal. The last candle is red and narrow bodied. It is near the top of the channel. Trade plan- I will short LCID here and add to the position each time price returns to the top of the channel as monitored on a lower time frame such as 15-45 minutes. I will watch for a reversal of the down-trending lines of the zero-lag MACD and a cross at the bottom. Similarly for the RSI indicator and its green fast and red slow line in the range of RSI value of 20-35. Likewise, if price rises above the channel in an early breakout, the trade is over as the downtrend is correcting again. If the price were to break resistance of the mean VWAP zone, this would represent a break of the down supertrend and could cause a bit of a short squeeze to get underway. If I see that, I will get into a long position with more position size as it could become lucrative.

CAT Swing Long ReversalCAT has a downtrend 10% from its 30-day high. However, fundamentally the industrial is holding up quite well. The downtrend was inverse parabolic accompanied with an appropriate volume pattern showing 3X relative volume This is sometimes called the retirement trade pattern or V-type pattern. CAT has dropped to three standard deviations below the anchored VWAP / This makes it undervalued well below fair value. I see this as a good setup for a long swing trade or a call options contract with the expectation of a 50% retracement of a 10# drop or a 5% price target For the call options I will target the anchored VWAP at a strike of $243 about 12 DTE.

Volume Profile and why you need it.Volume profile is an underused and quintessential part of trading, it tells you build up of orders, it tells you fair price, and it tells you where the majority of the liquidity is. You can see in this chart, I have taken it apart piece by piece to show you the basic mechanics and why price moves the way it does, now be honest, how many of you rushed into selling GU last minute because the price was collapsing? Well the funny thing is despite not being alone in doing so in the retail trading world, big banks and instituitions were already two steps ahead as expected, check the Volume profile, notice how it declined on a massively falling currency, what this is telling you is that the amount of exchanges is very low, as the shorters pushed price down they began to close positions, also what would have happened is the amount of retail money and money that isnt associated to high end firms would have started to see negative positions so what do they do? they have to close these sells with buys! so not only are the big banks taking profit, they are also using you as rocket fuel! as the masses of small money becomes negative/trapped/stoplosses, price reacts in an equal and opposite reaction, price rallies. So where is price heading too? it is heading back to an area where it can happily trade, and this is shown by larger bars on the VP, price wants to be happy, to be happy it needs to transact alot! So two takeaways... One, dont rush into falling or rising currencies! as they are heading into areas of low volume and will use mean reversion to run you over... Two, Utilise the fact price has low VP build up to your advantage! use price action and catch moves like that GU rally back to an area of more transactions! and a final little trick, use the VP to tell you if your orderblock is real or a figment of your imagination! feel free to drop some questions below, I may have to make more posts on VP for it to make sense. Maybe I will also make some posts on examples of trading using it, and what to do and not to do. Thinking about it, there is more posts to do, I need to show how to trade mean reversion and 'mountain to mountain' tactics. Hope you find this post interesting, as I take a journey of taking back the layers of many traditional strategies, indicators and the deeper world of maths, I am doing this to try help new traders actually get somewhere! So please give me a like and a follow, I want to expand my reach here on tradingview :) All the best ZenFlo.
