Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day.
Learned something new today.
Pic below shows OMG-Perp and while it came near a possible support line i took it short for 7 ticks.
Reason being is that the just now closed UP bar had a negative delta so sellers must still be active.
Thought that was fun, at least i had
ps: the dom to the right is just so i can record the session which might give me more ideas when i replay things.

one more, this is getting additive.
Spotted bullish delta in the cluster zone for the closed candle which was also up, confirming more buying power.
Target the manually dotted line which was good for around 0.35% which is my target for this asset.
Think i seeing more and more but perhaps im just way off with this, just so much to see in the DOM, i like it a lot!

Hi guys. Machinator i want to say thank you for opening this thread. I study this thread from the beginning and it really is an eye opener. And the software is very good.
It is a little difficult for me to study because my kid wants to watch youtube when i have time to study and i have latency problems. And then when my kid goes to sleep my wife wants to watch netflix or something...
Anyway i am not as successfull as HLine but i think slowly some things start to click in my head and i will get better.
When i get it right and win the trade i feel like Neo from Matrix though.
See you around.

Combination of seeing imbalances and following big volume, at least try to.
@Mike.Hatzis, how familiar! Got a bunch of kids running around too, sounds all to familiar.
@Machinator: If you got time and are willing, could you please describe how the collecting spread works in the DOM?
I keep replaying the videos but scratch my head continually and have no hair left anymore

You are welcome! My congrats with your family ,the best thing in the word for man to have his own family and kids,this is the best motivation to live and to be happy and enjoy this life.
Mike , never forget this is not a sprint but marathon. Devote to your new interest 15 minutes half an hour ,an hour a day ,it is doesn't matter how much but make it periodically ,every single day and maybe after a year or two you will master a new profession, anew craft as I call trading.
Keep in toch!

My weekly results + 8k on the spot, mainly on CEL /USD .The situation is still in tact -600k contracts on 5.000 price.
Have a nice weekend!

Trying to find my way with the "collecting spread" thing.
Find myself quite often at the wrong side of the market direction when i try to detect the "activity".
Also not sure when to exit my loss with this? I tend to see all big volume as soon as i enter.
Perhaps i just dont fully understand what 'activity' looks like on the transaction tape. A lot of times i see a say big red circle and i enter
only to see price go up. Perhaps just buyers taking profit. And i find myself sometimes averaging into the trade what i dont want to
become a habit once the account grows.
Looking at the vids it looks so simple but it aint easy
Nonetheless quite interesting till now. 
Have a great day!

This morning i used the report of CScalp to see which instruments did move most to see if it would give any oppertunities.
AR is being good to me this morning, really start to like this pair.
Results this far:
So all in all its going good using these methods. Im not yet fully comfortable and make a lot of mistakes still, holding on to long to bad trades, not able to
see at the moment when volume is 'eaten up' or just following wrong volume at all.
I find myself re-reading this thread and especially focus on @Machinator his posts which sometimes feel a bit overwhelming but then i find the next nugget and try
to use it. Big thanks to you Machinator for opening up this thread, i take my hat off for you.
May i ask that you can post some more screenshots about setups before and after (preferably a loss when volume has been eaten)?
Take care, have a great day

edit: updated stats - if i can keep this up i will up my size a bit in the coming days

Hello everyone,
Thank you @Machinator for introducing us to this scalping method.
Last 3 days i studied the cscalp and did some small trades, I think, now I'm getting the hang of it.
Thanks @HLine, your trade examples also helped me.
Later I will post some trade examples.

Well done great job! I cant comment on that to much since im starting out myself but i think you understand what to do.
Today i had several big battles on the trading field and made several mistakes.
Mixed shortcuts so opened long instead of short, pressed ctrl when trying to record my trade which closed my positions, averaged down so i think i will
step aside for some time till i have figured out how to properly close my losers. Cant seem to understand when the volume is eaten.
Though ended in green, im not content due to the mistakes i made.
Talk later
