Quote from Spydertrader:
Perhaps, you could elaborate further as to how you view volume in the context of bid / ask.
Tenga un buen fin de semana.

Firstly, let us back up a bit because ask/bid can be dangerous unless it is placed into the greater context.
Price moves diagonally across the screen as volume impacts against time.
This is true even for vol charts since we do not live in a time vacuum and all events therefore have a time sequence.
The pressure of volume at the bid/ask gives price it`s verticality (+ve o or -ve)
as time unfolds.
This crabbing motion can be translated into straight channels and trendlines as you promote and the belief is that there is a memory implanted into the channel if drawn correctly and many people subscribe to this.
Hence your FTT and BO etc.
Now along comes horizontal zones (lines) and these are much more powerful simply because of the greater volume thrown at these zones and we all can see this on a filtered T & S.
This is my wateringhole where I lie in wait.
When channels and zones impact I watch the accumulated ask/bid very carefully.
Who is building the stronger position and how long can I watch before I am no longer a "front runner"
I could mumble on for hours Spyder, but I imagine this gives you the overall view of my trading style.
I did have a great weekend, thank you.
