Day 14: Daily P/L + $1.78 lol, overall + $21.99. I started a new strategy today based off the indicators used and discussed by Chris Vermeulen in his book. So now i have a TOTAL up or down volume indicator added at all times, and what this does is show is the majority of the market buying or selling, as well as based on the ratio if panic selling or buying is kicking in. So i started the day not planning on taking any trades unless i saw something and i looked at the DVOL/UVOL and it was mostly negative and decided okay today and trades need to be sells, no buys, that way i am swimming in the direction of the current. I pull up the QQQ and see price action increasing to the down side with increasing volume confirming this is a genuine move from the insiders. I Took the ORB (Opening range breakout) trade on QQQ at 9:45 and rode down until a reversal where i cashed out for about a 20 dollar gain. Because the total volume was still down i did not take a buy at the reversal just to be as strict as possible. I then later tried a few more reversals at key levels but ended up getting stopped out for small losses as they were lower volume fakeouts i took too quickly. Now i purely set up alerts no automatic trades that way if the volume is not picking up towards the flow of water i just keep watching until it does and if not do not take the trade. The opening trade seemed crystal clear, and i realize the other trades i took just never came in with that kind of volume even though it may have been increasing it was not the insiders trading. I think this total volume is why a high percentage technical trade would not work, if it was against the order flow, so now i only take a double top or bottom IF it matches the total volume order flow.
