Our Very Own "SMART" VSA (Volume Spread Analysis) In Action

SMART VSA (which consists of our proprietary advanced VSA multi-bar patterns and signal modules identified using SMART) is beginning to take shape.

This example chart of a very simple SMART VSA setup caught a 375+ pip move on AUD/JPY.



In the example our Advanced Strength Indication and Spinning Rowboat Modules are shown (Arrow 1 & 2)

Please keep in mind SMART Trader itself is painting these bars which makes these patterns and setups much easier to spot and act on.
We are completing multiple modules for the next update including our own SMART VSA (Volume Spread Analysis) Advanced Signal Modules
Trade setups are verified via our proprietary background scanners (included with the system).

Very Quick AUD/JPY Analysis Using SMART Trader Volume Spread Analysis Software

This is a very quick analysis on AUD/JPY H1 Using SMART by request. This pair can be excellent for longer term swap and has some very nice moves as well. I pulled in 250 pips over night taking very quick simple SMART/VSA based trades. I called some of the moves when I was in the Live Volume Spread Analysis Chat Room (Free)

We are in the middle of rolling out the Audio Alerts Update so I don't have the time at the moment to properly annotate the chart as I normally would but you get the basic idea.

An example of a Treehugging Fruitcake

One of the great strengths of the SMART Trader (Volume Spread Analysis) Software is that it gives you the ability to recognize multi bar patterns you may not have otherwise seen such as the Mount Fuji Fakeout, The Spinning Rowboat, and the newest dubbed the Treehugging Fruitcake.

Here is a quick chart showing a SMART Green Bar (Effort To Rise) on Excessive Volume (Weakness) Into a SMART Pink Bar (Effort To Fall) on high but not excessive volume (Weakness).

I will test this further and see if it's worthy of it's own alert.



Sound alerts are done and the update should roll out tomorrow. The Spinning Rowboat Advanced Module is testing and may also make it in tomorrow's update. A s you may be aware you are alerted of new updates via your chart but I will also post a message here and in the chat.
