The immediate action is random caused by imbalance of market orders on the order book, the longer view is less so due to manipulation of the bigger players who face ruin if they don’t get price eventually to a level where it protects their business ...

Do you believe this market is random?

Don’t believe that lie, that’s for fools. Look a bit harder

How can you track the "smart money”

Hi Geester Distance is really just the ATR of the candle, basically never trade small candles in a slow market. Ideally big candles formed by high volume is what we are after - about $100K peer minute in the crypto market. Extreme speed is normally ...

Totally agree Ryuryu When we trade volume there are no timeframe. Only volume, speed, delta and distance.

Did you look at the bloody delta. It was mainly sellers during the run down. Volume was increasing, delta red = +90 chance of winning. If we have the M1 chart up to look for warning signs , we don't need to worry. If the delta flips on M5 while ...

Hi ntk Wow, so much information, you deserve a medal if you can make sense of all that data. I believe the human mind can only focus on sets of data at once - unless your'e a woman of course. This is the Dow M15 from Friday through to now. What it ...

Hi Geester Google “myclusterdelta” and for the price of a cup a coffee, you can access futures volume onto MT4 /5. Its only for US pairs but the data is good, it matches (in sync) with forex pairs - it leads by half a second actually. Better still, ...

I scare at a screen for 6 to 8 hours a day (tell my wife I working on the accounts) and have no spare time for anything else. Actually maybe 2 or 3 more hours as I talk to a few guys on Discord after or during trading as well. If you happen to come ...

Hi ntk What time frame do I work on? Time In a day on EURUSD, the sales are approx. 1.5 Trillion dollars in turnover (Close enough for this discussion) so that's a lot of liquidity isn't it. Well only if you trade the Day chart, how about the 1 ...

Hi Bigballer How do I put it all together? I am a scalper of liquidity where I am looking to enter a trade shortly after an imbalance on the order book as occurred. Strategy one - is for Crypto mainly, it can be used for the Dow / S&P / Nasdaq as ...

Please no PM's, it just wastes my energy when most never reply back. Sorry to members if I don't answer many I receive, I just don't want to spend a hour a day writing on FF. Ask them here. I will post a trade or too I took tonight, explain my ...

Anything could happen, liquidity is a major issue in crypto futures indeed so let’s make hay while the sun shines. But Delta works perhaps even better on US Indy’s so creating a dual income stream here is just smart. Also Forex trading on retail ...

Hi Mihajlou As a learning tool for the volume beginner, just jump onto the Futures code for EURUSD and study the relationship between volume and delta, then see the imbalance flip the market with a "thrust candle" moving price bearish or bullish. ...

Not sure if you guys really understand what ryuryu’s up to. Why does he want a reaction and to what benefits does it offer him?. Some people are totally phenomenal traders when they are emotionally aroused, perhaps some people want to trade hard ...

Hi Pete We need to accept that we need to alter our strategy (only if slightly) for each market type we trade. I am sure a very slight twig to your current strategy and you could kill it in crypto. You will always get filled if your trade size is ...

Use a delta histogram, far easier on the eye. Especially great on US Indy’s. On time and sales, filter out all the small stuff and it’s not too bad to read.

Hi Pete The real issue is most forex traders get their positions filled immediately because they are trading against their broker, not on the real market. So small spreads and immediate fills are guaranteed but what if your orders were placed onto ...

Market orders are seen in the Time & Sales column, that is where you should look. Nothing else is of much value. The real problem is of course they need to hide their intentions, so all we know is very large sells pushed the market either bearish or ...

How can you track the "smart money”

Maybe I better explain it in plain English. There is always a base level of low liquidity that is basically directionless, then we get liquidity that attempts to push price bullish or bearish. Any trader that wants to make money needs to estimate ...
