DESCRIPTION
These are the slides from a webinar we did that reveal some very specific "trigger" setups for trending markets, sideways markets, and also show a bunch of examples for spotting and taking advantage of reversals. This is all done using the Volume Imbalance Footprint with MarketDelta Charts. The first part is a description of the Volume Imbalance and the second part contains all the examples.TRANSCRIPT
