The NeverLossTrading Volume Differential Indicator is the
latest addition to our indicator family. It measures the volume differential
and marks the high and low of the referring candle associated. The differential is calculated as the gradient change of the sine-wave-approximated volume curve and is part of our NLT
HF-Trading package.
Base Hypothesis
A)
The change of the gradient in the volume curve
identifies institutional investor’s activity. Associating price action, we trade the direction the price-move takes, after we identified the
volume gradient change.
B)
Frequent changes in buy- and sell-activity
lead to multiple trade opportunities in the observed time frame. To formulate
an easier directional entry, an approximation of the expected directional
price-move is made and spells out a trade signal: Buy > or Sell <,
with the following trade conditions:
Entry: 1-tick above/below the high/low of the
associated price candle. A trade is only entered if the price of the candle
following the trade initiation candle surpasses the required price level. If
this does not happen, we drop the signal.
Exit: ½-SPU
(Speed Unit NLT-specific measure). Painted as a light green dot on the chart.
Stop: Red Line on
the chart (NLT Double-Decker).
By the input of active traders, we tested the volume
differential indicator as a standalone trade entry indicator and found that it
provides high probability trade entries. A short explanation to our charts:
- Red-Zones identify downtrends.
- Blue-Zones stand for up-trends.
- Purple-Zones identify indecision, where institutions fight for a directional move.
- Horizontal lines identify support and resistance levels.
- Volume bar colors: Cyan = extreme volume. Red=high volume on a down-move. Blue = high volume on an up-move. Maroon = higher volume with no directional decision. Yellow = low volume. Gray = average volume. Red and blue waves: Sine-Waves simulated over the volume curve to calculate the gradient change.
