About Anna Coulling and Volume Price Analysis
Anna Coulling is a renowned trader, educator, and author with over two decades of experience in financial markets. She has traded across forex, stocks, futures, and commodities, developing a deep understanding of market dynamics. Anna’s passion for teaching led her to create Volume Price Analysis (VPA)—a methodology that demystifies price action by incorporating volume. Her best-selling book, A Complete Guide to Volume Price Analysis, is considered the bible of volume trading. Through Quantum Trading Education, Anna shares her expertise, helping traders worldwide build disciplined, volume-based strategies.
Volume Price Analysis (VPA) is Anna’s signature approach. It is a methodology that combines price action with volume to reveal true market intent. Price alone can deceive—sharp moves on low volume often signal traps. High volume confirms conviction from professionals. VPA identifies accumulation (buying at lows) and distribution (selling at highs). This gives traders clarity in volatile markets. Whether day trading or investing long-term, VPA aligns you with institutional flows for higher-probability decisions.
The Roots Of Volume Price Analysis
VPA has its roots in the early 20th-century methods of Richard Wyckoff. Wyckoff pioneered tape reading—analysing real-time price and volume. His three laws form VPA’s foundation: Supply and Demand (volume drives price), Cause and Effect (accumulation/distribution phases lead to trends), and Effort vs Result (high volume with little price move signals absorption). Anna modernised these principles for digital charts, making Wyckoff accessible to today’s traders.
Volume is the heartbeat of markets—it represents real money and participation. High-volume rallies indicate strong buying pressure. Low volume at extremes warns of exhaustion or reversals. Mastering volume provides the foundation for trading or investing success. It reduces emotional decisions, filters noise, and reveals professional intent. With VPA, you trade what the market is doing—not what you think it should do.

A Personal Welcome
If you have come across my name before, perhaps through my books on Amazon, you will already be familiar with the route that David and I took into trading and investing, which was, to say the least, unusual.
From those early days of trading futures through LIFFE with no internet, and on through the complete gamut of instruments and markets, the one constant in our lives has been volume, and the methodology we created, now universally referred to as volume price analysis (VPA). This has been the foundation of our success, and we want it to be yours too.
