    Is Vol. Really Important ?

    I agree with you 100% here. All I'm saying is, atleast make sense! I am not dictating that everyone use volume or discard it. Or that they use it in a specific way, if at all. I'm just saying, think through the assumptions that are implicit in the explanations about volume bandied about or...

    Is Vol. Really Important ?

    In another post Grob (Jack?) said in response to davelansing: Illiquid is looking at differing flags than I am and his set is a lagging set instead of a leading set. How so? Again, I'm not sure I understand you since you're not coherent but it seems to me that you're 'lagging' as well. Or...

    Is Vol. Really Important ?

    In another post Grob (Jack?) said in response to davelansing: You are speaking of right and wrong. I am speaking of persons gaining more depth of understanding and as a consequence doing better in making money. In fact, Grob, you *were* speaking of right and wrong. Several times actually...

    Is Vol. Really Important ?

    mtt, very interesting. That is what I'm also starting to conclude. That volume is another variable that may or may not fall into place. If it does not, it does'nt mean that trend will not start or continue. Rather the sum of the other variables will carry the day. To be clear, the other...

    Is Vol. Really Important ?

    makosgu: I read and re-read your post half a dozen times but I still don't understand 85% of it. Here's something you said, that I do understand : So why is volume "really" important. The simple answer is without it, price cannot change. This is an assertion. I would invite you to prove it...

    Is Vol. Really Important ?

    Well, that's the thing. I mean volume is just a sign of interest in a security. After all, it only prints when there is a buyer and seller. I would be rich beyond my wildest dreams if I had a dollar for everytime some knucklehead said, 'take a look at XYZ, a 5,000,000 block was bought' implying...

    Is Vol. Really Important ?

    This is for swing/position trading: Like others, I've read in TA books how volume is an important indicator of 'fuel' for moves up or breakouts out of ranges. Some books even go as far as saying that if a rally doesn't have volume, it is suspect and should be avoided, if not shorted. But...
