DislikedWith Jigsaw I use size filter of 30. My alert for block trades are set to 100. The key for me is size of orders hitting bids/offers. Size moves price. So if I place a trade based on my analysis of the orderbook, I need to see size hitting the bids/offers in support of my trade. The D.O.M./Market Orders flow so fast that the recon tape helps to slow things down. I use Sierra Charts for my chart analysis. The Volume Profile on Sierra Charts is all I use to confirm key levels along with Jigsaw Volume Profile. I spent many many hours going through...Ignored
DislikedCame out ahead today, but really traded poorly due to breaking rules and trading part of euro session which I rarely do. During that session I was in the red and called it quits when I was tired. Traded good this morning to make up for being in the red last night, finished +$83 or so even after too much commission. Was $-300 ish at the bell this morning. Realizing now I can't keep trading today because I'm just too tired out and maybe a bit frustrated due to lots of small losing trades. Did some tinkering with adding onto trades when...Ignored

Disliked{quote} Welcome my fellow orderflow analyst! Awesome. Also, what I'm finding is that watching the tape on YM is a lot more productive than MYM. So I just use YM even for micro contracts, since the micro is based on the mini. Yeah we need those big orders to lean on or push our trade into the right direction! For me right now, I have volume audible alert (via Summary Tape) on Large Quantity 20 contracts, Icebergs 10 and Divergence 14. The Recon Tape for me I have 2 different tapes: 1 is filtering trades from contract size 1 to 9 and the other one...Ignored
