*Do not take this piece of the Puzzle, trade it in the middle of nowhere and without understanding the Days context. YOU WILL GET RIPPED APART!*

CONTEXT IS ALWAYS KING!

{quote} There is some true aspects to your answer but it is highly depended on the Timeframe. I would say its the Salesmenīs task to get weak Hands into the Market not the Markets goal! The Market has no other intent as to faciliate Trade. I definetly agree with you that people who understand Orderflow have an edge IF they are using it IN CONTEXT! As a private Person with little capital/bad Internetconnection (compared to the Marketmakers with very low latency) and the fact that you execute your orders manually(not algorithmic) you will get lost...
Yes it’s the trader task to profit from the weak hands and not the market as you said, the market as no intention, no will and no other personality and behavior than dictated by us trader, the market is the ultimate slut.

That being said I would like that someone enlighten me about the big dogs, how having such big volume order is an advantage?

trading is hard when we use various types of indicators or system all at once otherwise it is simple as always
Always good to have an easy way of trading! For me its very important to understand the Context and natural behavior of the markets at its core!

I can only have an educated guess here:

On the Tick by Tick basis (lowest Timeframe possible) you are the big dog that can move the market with your order (predict/influence the very shorttermdirection) --> after you are in you will get some scalpers to jump on the boat and carry price even further in your direction and then you get your target filled by the weak hands/laggards!
- This is why there is still spoofing, flipping the book, layering, pull and hit and all these supershortterm patterns/traps out there that are used by brokers/clearingfirms to get these big orders filled by an advantageous price.

Class 4:
What is a Setup/Edge in reference to the Market/Trading?

What do you need to execute on a Setup for it to be +EV?


What is YOUR Setup/Edge?

If you already have an answer to that Question (honest answer and can back it up with some Results over a decent Sample) than you should not be here and push it as hard as you can!

If you do not have one yet, we might be generating one together in this Class(No Magic Indicator, No HolyGrail)

Remember: If you are able to understand the Context of the Market than you can align yourself with the market more often than not and your entrysignals (doesnīt matter what it is; Candlestickreversals, Movingavg. Cross; RSI; MACD Divergence) will provide positive Expectancy!
