You're right. It was extremely speculative position. Close it at entry level.

Do you guys use Jigsaw? Any thoughts on it? It looks interesting, but the learning curve is steep and looks like information overload at the moment.

pretty much hit that Slimit.. and dropped to the point.. good on you reflecting again and getting short . short look heavier and read to drop.... alas it's late in the day .. but should not prevent a further advance of 20 point's

I know Jigsaw, and it's good software, but it's too expensive IMHO. You can try ATAS or SB-Pro. Previously ATAS has incorrect delta and other volumetric calculations (currently I don't know). SB-Pro is a good analytical platform (without execution).
I use Bookmap for analytics, NT, and Quantower for trading. Additionally, I'm trading options, so I have several options platforms (CQG, OptionVue)

ATAS not bad. they have a trial you can use think it's 14 days

Autrader has been pretty successful using the imbalance footprint with volume/price action. if that's your speed i would check out some of the charts he's posted too

If you trade CL on any "timeframe" above 1sec, the vast majority of the information in this video has no relevance.

CL is a great instrument for orderflow traders, perhaps not hft's, but certainly for manual trading it has orderflow that is legible, exploitable, and has more than enough liquidity for most traders.

Yes, probably you are right. I trade it with Order Flow, but this video seemed interesting to me. My friend works in hft fund and they are MM on CL market.

For a long time did not post anything
I worked on a pair of new strategies: one is still at the development stage (such as market making at BitMEX exchange), and the second is purely on the order flow using Power Trades with Quantower platform.
