Curriculum
How we sequence volume literacy before participation fingerprints — the spine behind every session we run.
The curriculum below underpins the Volume Reading Intensive and informs mentorship and clinics. It is training material, not a trading system.
- Raw volume prints — absolute versus relative volume, session context, and when a “big” bar is merely average for that name.
- Effort versus result — comparing vertical progress to volume expended; spotting hollow advances and stubborn holds.
- Climax and dry-up — recognising exhaustion prints and the quiet that often precedes a genuine turn.
- Participation at levels — who defends, who abandons, and how to annotate that in a journal without storytelling.
- Absorption fingerprints — heavy volume with limited progress; distinguishing absorption from distribution in practice.
- Multi-session context — overnight gaps, auction opens, and when UK cash session participation disagrees with the overnight print.
- Falsification drills — writing what would invalidate your participation read before the next session opens.
- Personal checklist — compressing the modules into five questions you ask on every candidate trade.
