Open this to understand the Magic of VWAP.

Detailed Thread on using VWAP for Day Trading. Image
VWAP is basically made by multiplying each trade's price by its volume, adding all this together, and then dividing by the total number of coins traded.

Traders use VWAP to see if a coin is trending up or down.

Below VWAP -> Cheap
Above VWAP ->Expensive

On LTF. Image
I will show both session VWAP and Anchored VWAP (AVWAP).

but we use the latter the most often and these are my default settings:

When anchoring to a high, use 'high'. When anchoring to a low, use 'low'. Image
Here is a recent Bitcoin chart showing how you can anchor AVWAP to the high/low as well as open simultaneously. Read it well Chads.

You can consider entering somewhere between the 2 VWAPs.

I use it as an entry tool. Image
There are two places where I anchor the VWAP:

1. Swing Highs/Lows. (Anchor at beginning)

2. Beginning Of Ranges Image
Now let's jump into how I take trades in both scenarios:

1. Trend Following Trade

NOTE: The more immediate and violent the reaction, the better. Image
2. Trend Failure

This is a more nuanced setup where more confluence is needed. I mostly scalp trade the range on 1m TF when this happens

NOTE: If price immediately tests VWAP after first high/low, that is a bad sign. Image
3. VWAP as range mean.

Here we mostly use it on "open" setting.

It is a point of interest in terms of target, also for entries (sometimes)

NOTE: Not the best way to use VWAP. Image
So this ia the trick I use for VWAP to make intraday trades. You can use it Chads and tell me how it works for you.

VWAPS - All You Need To Know🧵

One of the most overlooked and misunderstood orderflow indicator out there. Personally VWAP is the base of my trading model and something I use every trading day.

This is a detailed guide on how to trade using VWAPs Image
1) Intraday VWAPs

You can use VWAPs to build bias for the day, where a particular market session is going to trend and how to effectively position yourself.

Link to original post:

2) Example of how I personally trade VWAPs for swing or positional trades

$WIF - Trading System Examples

Using EMAs, Key Levels and VWAPs Image
Normal trend-based bias forming:

- Rounded bottom structure forms
- Reclaim of EMA200 for H4 or D1, please check what works best for the asset you’re looking at
- Reclaim of EMA200 with volume is usually a sign that we can gap up to EMA100 fairly quickly Image
Entry models:

- Retest of H4 trend after bull cross

Bull cross = Ltf EMA moving above HTF EMA Image

Tools you need to WIN in the current environment:

- S/R levels
- EMAs or heuristic bands (choose your pick)
- VWAPs

Nothing else.

Should I drop 10 altcoin charts in the current market to show you examples?

Understanding Open Interest (OI)

Open Interest (OI) represents the total value of open positions on a specific contract. In simple terms, if the OI on btc perps is $1 billion, it means there’s $1 billion worth of long and short positions currently active on that contract.

Every time a new position is opened, it involves a Maker and a Taker, always a 1:1 relationship. In other words, two parties are needed to complete a trade, one who places the order (maker) and one who takes it (taker). For instance, if we decide to market buy one BTC perpetual contract as the taker, the OI for that contract will increase by the value of 1 BTC.Image
How to Read OI

When the price rises and OI increases, it means new long positions are being opened at market.

When the price rises and OI decreases, shorts are closing their positions at market.

When the price falls and OI increases, new short positions are being opened at market.

When the price falls and OI decreases, long positions are being closed.

The larger the timeframe you use, the less precise this data becomes. Lower timeframes are the most reliable for this.Image
Time-Based vs Non Time Based Charts

Most data is traditionally organised by time, alternative chart types offer clearer insights.

Popular alternatives are, Range/Volume, Tick, and pure Volume charts.

Lower timeframes tend to provide more precise, real time data.
As you move to higher timeframes, data becomes more averaged and details get lost. On higher timeframes, metrics like Open Interest can lose practical meaning as they become too broad and theoretical.Image

Evolving R: Dynamic Risk Management in trading

This Concept popularised by Trader Dante refers to:

- Dynamic nature of the risk to reward ratio (R) as a trade progresses
- Trade EV gradually changing, not worth price but also with time
- JUST AVOID ROUND-TRIPPING Image
Evolving R refers to the dynamic nature of the risk to reward ratio (R) as a trade progresses. Initially, traders set a fixed R based on their entry, stop loss, and target levels

However, once the trade is active, the potential reward and risk fluctuate with price movements

At trade entry:

You set your stop loss (risk)
You set your target (reward)

Your initial risk to reward ratio (R) is fixed on paper.

In this case risking 3% for 9% target, which equates to 3R

But once the trade moves into your direction, the potential (R) shifts, you're now risking your unrealised gains as wellImage
Let’s say your trade moves halfway to target.

In this case your unrealised profit is now +2.57R

If you don’t trail your stop, you’re now risking your unrealised 2.57R to make additional 0.43R and if you were to enter at this point with your original take profit and stop loss, this would be a negative 4R trade

So ask yourself, if you would open a new position at this point, with the same Tp/Sl, if not?

Time to trail your stops

Your live R isn’t what you set initially.
It’s evolving in real time as the trade progressesImage

Market Trends 101

Understanding The market trend + trend reversal is key for any trading idea being formed

Here’s my structured approach for it: 🧵 Image
You can view the market from two different lens:

1. Market moves in a “range-impulse-range” framework
2. Market Moves in Trends and alternates (will use this framework to keep this simple and will cover the nuances later)

NOTE: My assumption to structure this properly is - A trend remains in effect until there is clear evidence of reversal

Trends Have Three Phases:

1. The accumulation phase (books are typically thick here)

2. Public/Retail participation phase (trend gains momentum)

3. Distribution phase (trend is broken and retail is left offside)Image
Confirming a Trend Change

A new trend is confirmed when a previous swing high or low is sliced through (and retested for extra confirmation)

Volume also increases in the direction of the new trend Image
