Day trading stocks and index futures using volume price analysis, as the dust finally settles in the US election

As the dust finally settles on the US elections and the makeup of the Senate is finalized, some great price action developing in the risk asset despite some disconnect between the Nasdaq and the Dow Jones and S&P 500. Despite that, an excellent trade developed on the YM Emini and one we followed across both the time and non-time-based charts, with tick and Renko charts working as the perfect complement to the volume price analysis methodology. With the Dow Jone and S&P 500 working in tandem this was sufficient to pull the NQ emini higher, but not for long following the storming of the Senate which duly followed later in the evening.

  1. Hello, Anna, I am your new reader. I am learning with excitement about the volume and price analysis you wrote. I think this is the real trading code. Just now I encountered a doubt when analyzing the Chinese stock market. My screenshot is shown in this link :(http://qr61.cn/ooryzU/qrJvU9j) you can view it. This is a daily chart of Chinese stocks. I would like to ask. For example, the two shade lines marked by the yellow arrows have more than average trading volume. The first short physical shade line shows that the seller is stronger, but the second is longer. There is almost no upper shadow line on the body, and the trading volume is only a little more than the last K-line. If such a shade line is encountered while the stock price rises after buying, I cannot judge whether it has any special significance? If it were you, what analysis would you make when you encounter such a negative line that seems to have a turning point after buying? Thank you!

    • Hello, Anna, I am your new fans. I am deeply inspired by your books about the volume and price analysis. I think it is very helpful. I have a question in analyzing the Chinese stock market, I have attached a sreenshot,link :(http://qr61.cn/ooryzU/qrJvU9j). This is a daily K-line of Chinese stocks. I’m really confusing that the two blue lines which I marked them by the yellow arrows have over the average of the trading volume. The left one of these two shows the short-seller is more, and the other one is longer obviousily. But we can see the trading volume of these two are very similar. Also, the upper shadow of the right one is very short, almost disappeared. I doubt wheter these two k-line will change the trends or what it really means. If you open a position in horizontal price movement before uptrends what will you analyse after these two k-line, going up or down? (off cause we know it is going up now,but I do comfusing about its means,I don’t know whether keep holding or selling off at that time). Hoping you will explain for me. Thank you very much.
