Smart Volume Spread Analysis and The Presidential Election

Smart Volume Spread Analysis and The 2016 Presidential Election:

Nearly every time a major news event happens people ask how our software did analyzing the market’s reaction to it.  The recent presidential election was no exception.  While Smart Volume Spread Analysis didn’t predict the surprise win by Donald Trump, it did very handily have you trading the right way from the first reaction (Freak out) to the next ‘yuge’ move back up (Acceptance)

The following chart is the hourly for the S&P 500 (Emini) on the day of the election (2016.  I marked the entry trades and the exits as well.

Smart Volume Analysis Watches The Markets Trump then Pump.

Trump – Two Very Clear Weakness Signals (Smart Selling and Reverse Shakeout)

Pump – Our Unique and Proprietary Smart Buying Signal, not found in any other volume analysis software, has you long at precisely the right moment. This was worth over 30 points.

Weak Exit Signal (Non Catalyst but Trade Advisor was in agreement)

Valid Exit Signal as Per Our Proprietary Signal to Signal Method

Here is a screenshot from the last Election.  You can clearly see Smart had you right then too.  (Click the link image below to go to the article from the 2012 Election.  That moves was worth 48 points on the S&P500 emini)

These examples are not cherry picked, the screenshots included in this article show real World examples selected from all the charts I watch where the signal(s) and or concepts being discussed appeared at the time this article was written.

Each VSA signal and indication within our software has its own color.  SMART Trader itself is painting these colors which makes these patterns and setups easier to see and act on.  Using Smart VSA you can profit from these examples day in, and day out.  There is no guesswork.  If a signal is shown, it is valid.  It really is that simple.

Smart Trader - Smart Volume Spread Analysis - Product ImageIndex Trading With Volume Spread Analysis and our proprietary Catalyst Signals is one of the easiest and rewarding ways to trade using Smart Volume Spread Analysis. Using this simple method you can profit consistently trading the S&P 500 and other indexes each day and it takes no time at all.

Quick Breakdown: This method or system for trading the ES using Volume Spread Analysis has a very large number of benefits and anyone can master it in a very short amount of time. Index Trading With Volume Spread Analysis and more importantly Smart Volume Spread Analysis is very easy to do.

  • Pro’s

Click to open the chart and follow along with the text here:

The Method

The gray area shows the NY Session which is when we use this method.  Other sessions will open up in the next update.  For now NY is the time I recommend.

We look for Specific Signals with no Smart Trade Advisor warnings on each chart.  When they appear we open a trade and exit on one of the three things (Depending mainly on time frame)  The first example is the 15 minute chart for three index charts but any time frame is suitable. For shorter time frames I find it’s best to go for a specific point target, use the signal to signal method for exits, or go for the HVZ area (usually the best).  On longer time frames EOM’s are great targets.

I use the H4 EOM version of this method for nearly two years with great results (I average 10.5 pips per trade).

The chart examples show all the trade setups per our method that have no warnings.  The visual trade advisor which is a tool used for back testing our proprietary trade advisors is used as a visual guide in the older examples.  You can see how they do.  If you own Smart you can verify this very easily using your own charts.

Many more examples are coming in future articles but as many of you know we are finalizing a huge update for Smart (V5.0!) as well as the testing for the Ninja Version and some other really big surprises.
