VSA just looks at the volume and does not ask any questions.
I have to agree though, I can often not see how these large Cross Trades can make a difference, but they do.
I remember back when IDL had that large substantial shareholder sell off in a block.
Around that time, there was requests most weeks for IDL and I avoided charting it, as I wasnt sure how to deal with all that volume ( I was fairly new to VSA).
But dg did chart it, and said that volume would probably knock the shareprice off, and he was right, it did come off.
The poster came back and explained it was a XT & was not traded on market, and asked if that information would change his view.
dg replied that in VSA all volume is viewed the same, not matter where it came from, and it would not make any difference to his earlier opinion at all.
A Bold but Correct Statement.
dg was correct, in both his analysis of the stock, and his VSA principle's on volume.
Maybe VSA has some "Magic", just like pitchforks do, Hahaha
