Why does a VPA practitioner prefer 'Tick Charts' over 'Time Charts' in high-volatility futures markets?
- Volume readings are inherently always higher on tick charts than on traditional time-based bar charts.
- Time charts run more slowly and are therefore considered more accurate for Volume Price Analysis.
- Tick charts rely on Fibonacci numbers to predict exact upcoming price reversal levels.
- Tick charts provide finer granularity by creating more candles during active periods.
