Nah... I don't live in Texas. All this fondle talk has me excited though.

Basics.. I will just assume this is sarcasm considering the majority of threads I see on here. Like I said before, if you're not looking at volume, you are at a huge disadvantage. You can not see volume in Forex which puts you at a disadvantage, not ...

Great post. Finally, someone on FF who knows what they are talking about.

IMO watching orderflow is useful if you daytrade (meaning you are flat at the end of the day no matter what). If you are swing trading and holding for weeks/months, then I can agree it's not as useful.

The reason why I think you are buying/selling blind is because you cannot see the things displayed in this video. A candle/swing/past price action does not show you this information. video

You are making assumptions. They can add/pull all they want... I can still see what hits the bid and lifts the offer. You are buying/selling blind and hoping for a reversal off of a S/R line. Nothing is easy about trading no matter how you trade. ...

Sure, people add and pull orders all the time. The question should be how will you use that to your advantage? You may have a strong idea where people are going to be buying or selling, but you can't see it. Just because a candle closes green ...

Who says you need $25k? You must be thinking stocks? You can open a Futures account with $500 (not recommended). Lol sounds like you may have more issues than trying to be a profitable trader.

Finally someone who gets it. Why would any retail trader want to trade a market that doesn't show true volume? Instant disadvantage.

Here ya go, learn away. This guy does a great job breaking it down and explaining why it's important. video

These guys are not looking at DOM's to get into swing trades. They are pushing size and scalping ticks or spreading. I'm 99% sure they are not trading Spot Forex since there is no depth of market. Here is another trading floor. You can google image ...

Hmmm a bunch of professional traders... Where are all the charts loaded with indicators? Weird... I do see several of them have DOM's on their screens though. I wonder if those are important? Nah I would much rather follow someone on FF. lol

Yes. It's difficult for me to give you advice on larger time frames since I'm only looking for 3-5 ticks, unless bids/offers are getting crushed. You could use order flow to refine your entries and reduce risk.

React to what is happening now. Anyone can identify S/R, Trend lines, Moving Average bounce, ect... But these alone are not an edge, they are reference points. Being able to see participation at these reference points can provide the edge. You want ...

You trade to make money period. I made my points there is no point in arguing with you anymore. You are old and stubborn.

1. You can go here and read the advantages. He does a pretty good job breaking it down. url 2. I use AMP Futures. url Please note all Futures do not have the excellent commission structure like Treasuries. So do your research. If you are hedging ...

Oh and commissions do matter even if you're swing trading. Let's look at the bigger picture. Let's say you put on 100 trades a year trading 3 standard lots. 100 Trades $24 round turn .5 spread $15 = $3,900 where as I'm paying $3 round turn no spread ...

Lol good god you are like talking to a wall. I layed it all out there for you. You let me know where I can pay $3 in commissions for 3 standard lots (without being a high volume scalper) with no spread, with tax advantages (in the US), with ...

Im doing no backtracking. YOU CAN SEE TRADERS PLACING AND PULLING LARGE ORDERS on a good DOM "Jigsaw's for example". I never said it was easy mr assumptions. Sure on a thin market like YM it's going to be much more difficult to read orderflow when ...
