timmo - don't know why you're clogging up the charting threads with your war and peace anti-VSA rants. Some of us do just fine following VSA, sorry you don't. Also mitta does this trading gig full-time for a living, that in itself should tell you there might be something to it.
"I also hold an BBus (Accnt, Man, MKT) and MBA in some quite interesting areas of business."
I always laugh when people wave around their qualifications like it's gonna save them when it comes to trading. Pros are very indiscriminate when it comes to taking peoples' money, though I reckon they get more of a kick out of taking it from the "educated" lol :)
"So I pressure tested it."
Well, I don't believe you. Why don't you start a thread detailing how you pressure tested it. I actually think a pressure test of VSA would be quite complicated, given it involves identifying and relating disparate events. e.g. selling climax not necessarily followed immediately by a test / no supply bar. So a lot more complicated to test than the simple feel good moving average lagging indicators. The good thing about these indicators though is there are thousands of them so perma-bulls like yourself can always find a few that support their position.
