Quick Screenshot of SMART Buying Example (With Demand Indication) on ES… (3.5 quick points)

Posted on by pipbuilder
Here’s a quick Screenshot of SMART Buying Example (With Demand Indication) on ES… (3.5 quick points)  It’s not the normal 10 or more point moves we see using SMART Volume Spread Analysis Software, but it’s not too bad given the signal appears within a dead zone.  Do a search here for both “hidden buying” (Th eold name for SMART Buying) and “dead zones” to learn more about them.

Please keep in mind SMART Trader itself is painting these bars which makes these patterns and setups much easier to spot and act on.  There is no guesswork.

 

These patterns repeat themselves day in and day out and using SMART you can very easily see not only standard VSA signals but our advanced multibar SMART VSA patterns as well.
Trade setups are verified using our proprietary background scanners (included with the system).

EURUSD Shakeout into SMART Selling 160+ pips

Posted on by pipbuilder
Easy trades on the EURUSD earlier and currently.  These are two of my favorites (Shakeout and SMART Selling)

 

Please keep in mind that these examples are not cherry picked, the screenshots are real World examples selected from all of the charts I watch where the signal(s) and or concepts being discussed have appeared at the time this article was written.

Text from screenshot:
EURUSD H1
1. Shakeout 129 pips
2. SMART Selling Currently 32 pips

 

Please also keep in mind SMART Trader itself is painting these bars which makes these patterns and setups much easier to spot and act on.  There is no guesswork,  if a signal is painted it is valid.

 

These patterns repeat themselves day in and day out and using SMART you can clearly see not only standard VSA signals but our advanced multibar SMART VSA patterns as well.
Trade setups are verified using our proprietary background scanners (included with the system) and are typically only taken within Active Volume Zones (Module coming in a future update).

SMART Volume Spread Analysis Signals: SMART Buying, Upthrusts and Pseudo Upthrusts on USDJPY (100 easy pips)

Posted on by pipbuilder
The following screenshot illustrates the differences between our own SMART VSA (Volume Spread Analysis Software) signal SMART Buying and the standard VSA signals: Upthrusts, and Pseudo Upthrusts (All have the same color for now and look similar)

 

Some users have some trouble seeing the differences between them since they all use the same color (This will be changed in the next update).  SMART Buying is 1,2,3 and UT/PUT’s are the rest. As you can see the EOM’s are better on SMART Buying going two bars out while they are best done for one bar on Upthrusts and Pseudo Upthrusts.

 

If you have any questions visit us in our chatroom (Free) or our new facebook group.

 

Please keep in mind that these examples are not cherry picked, the screenshots are real World examples selected from all of the charts I watch where the signal(s) and or concepts being discussed have appeared at the time this article was written.

SMART Buying Signals on Hourly USD/JPY
Same color as UT and Pseudo UT for now.
This screenshot is to illustrate the fundamental differences between the standard UT and PUT and SMART Buying until SMART Buying has it’s own module.

 

1.SMART Buying (Strength) 32 pips over two bars
2.SMART Buying (Strength) 10 pips over two bars
3.SMART Buying (Strength) 40 pip currently over two bars (2nd bar closes in 4 minutes)
4.Pseudo Upthrust (Weakness) 10 pips over one bar
5.Upthrust (weakness) 5 pips over one bar
6.Pseudo Upthrust (Weakness) -7 pips over on bar
7.Pseudo Upthrust (Weakness) 12 pips over one bar

 

SMART Trader itself is painting these bars which makes these patterns and setups much easier to spot and act on.  There is no guesswork,  if a signal is painted it is valid.

 

The trades in this screenshot do not take into account Dead Zones or Active Volume Zones. Each signal discussed was annotated (I missed two on the chart due to the low resolution of my mini as they were off the screen so the total would have been about 20 pips higher).  The pip totals reflect only the annotated signals.  These charts and examples are not cherry picked.

 

These patterns repeat themselves day in and day out and using SMART you can clearly see not only standard VSA signals but our advanced multibar SMART VSA patterns as well.
Trade setups are verified using our proprietary background scanners (included with the system).

Custom Names Poll For New SMART VSA (Volume Spread Analysis) Modules…

Posted on by pipbuilder
Since our definition of hidden selling and hidden buying not only doesn't match the true VSA definition, they actually work (lol)… we have decided to give them their own names for the new SMART VSA signal modules they will become…

I have put up a poll with some choices for names we are throwing around at our Facebook group (link is below). Please add your own choices as well to vote on if you have some better ideas.

For those wondering why they were referred to as hidden selling and buying in our examples… it is because this is what they (characteristically) displayed. However since they don't match the *less* useful true signal definitions we have decided to rename them and avoid any confusion going forward.

You can access the poll at our facebook group here: Smart Traders Facebook Group
