Finding swing trading setups using Anchored VWAPs and Volume Shelf - A Thread πŸ‘‡

Anchored VWAP is the average price people paid from a specific anchor in the chart. Bulls and bears do not want stock to cross the average price they paid to buy/sell it!

$SPY $AFRM $V
(1/n)

Let's take an example of a bull run. When a breakout happens, or a reversal happens, or a rally begins, people start buying! We can assume such points as our anchor points!

Now as long as price stays above their average price, they are happy!

But what if it comes down!
(2/n)
If it comes down, those bulls might start buying again because anytime price will go below the anchored vwap from their initial buy point, they are in loss. THIS IS IMPORTANT!

They do not want to go in loss, so they start buying again pushing the price higher.

This is useful to know for everyone! Let's also couple this with something called a volume shelf.

Volume shelf shows you areas where most shares were traded. Similar to AVWAP, when price starts to cross below the shelf, bulls will step in because they are going in loss.

Now that we have a rough understanding of what pains bulls on an uptrend, and when do they step in to avoid any losses, we can move ahead.

For a bullish swing trade, our task is to now find setups that are on anchored VWAP supports + volume shelf supports.

Let's take a look at an example of $AFRM. You can see here that from the gap up AVWAP, we have a support below. We tried to go below it but buyers stepped in and price is above it now.

Same goes to the volume shelf level here! Buyers stepped in.

Let's take a look at another example - $SPY - This is just beautiful 😍

You can see that an AVWAP from every dip's reversal point acts as a support for the next rallies! There's no other indicator that can do this consistently across the entire market! Trust me.
(7/n)
To wrap this up - you need two things for every bullish swing setup. You can reverse this for bearish setups.

1. AVWAP Support from some important level (better if we have multiple AVWAP supports)
2. Volume Shelf support.

The last part is - how do we find these? ❓
(8/n)
For that you can use our "Event AVWAP" on Stocks Dashboard to draw multiple anchored VWAPS and see if you have support levels. $V is an excellent example - so many supports πŸ‘‡

You can also use "Scany" to just filter for stocks on volume shelf & AVWAP supports.

I hope this is useful for everyone, even if you don't use our platform. Over my 3 years experience, I have not found any technical indicator that works better than anchored VWAP.

1/β€œWhat would need to be true for you to….X”

Why is this the most powerful question you can ask when attempting to reach an agreement with another human being or organization?

A thread, co-written by @deanmbrody:


2/ First, β€œX” could be lots of things. Examples: What would need to be true for you to

- β€œFeel it's in our best interest for me to be CMO"
- β€œFeel that we’re in a good place as a company”
- β€œFeel that we’re on the same page”
- β€œFeel that we both got what we wanted from this deal

3/ Normally, we aren’t that direct. Example from startup/VC land:

Founders leave VC meetings thinking that every VC will invest, but they rarely do.

Worse over, the founders don’t know what they need to do in order to be fundable.

4/ So why should you ask the magic Q?

To get clarity.

You want to know where you stand, and what it takes to get what you want in a way that also gets them what they want.

It also holds them (mentally) accountable once the thing they need becomes true.

5/ Staying in the context of soliciting investors, the question is β€œwhat would need to be true for you to want to invest (or partner with us on this journey, etc)?”

Multiple responses to this question are likely to deliver a positive result.

Once upon a time there was a Raja named Uttānapāda born of Svayambhuva Manu,1st man on earth.He had 2 beautiful wives - Suniti & Suruchi & two sons were born of them Dhruva & Uttama respectively.
#talesofkrishna https://t.co/E85MTPkF9W


Now Suniti was the daughter of a tribal chief while Suruchi was the daughter of a rich king. Hence Suruchi was always favored the most by Raja while Suniti was ignored. But while Suniti was gentle & kind hearted by nature Suruchi was venomous inside.
#KrishnaLeela


The story is of a time when ideally the eldest son of the king becomes the heir to the throne. Hence the sinhasan of the Raja belonged to Dhruva.This is why Suruchi who was the 2nd wife nourished poison in her heart for Dhruva as she knew her son will never get the throne.


One day when Dhruva was just 5 years old he went on to sit on his father's lap. Suruchi, the jealous queen, got enraged and shoved him away from Raja as she never wanted Raja to shower Dhruva with his fatherly affection.


Dhruva protested questioning his step mother "why can't i sit on my own father's lap?" A furious Suruchi berated him saying "only God can allow him that privilege. Go ask him"
