This is a "light" version of http://www.forexfactory.com/forexfor...ead.php?t=5069

On pictures below I see:

Your stop losses - all green bars above the red circle (current price) + all red bars below the red circle.

In the same fashion I see your take profits - all red bars above the red circle (current price) + all green bars below the red circle.

All pictures are "fresh". Information about the orders is updated every 30 min of each hour (e.g. 01:30, 02:30, 03:30 ....). Information about the price is updated every 10 sec.
If you want to I can change zoom to see more area.

That chart for EUR / USD doesn't help me much.

Couldn't you just post the area between 1.20 and 1.30? At the same size
maybe?

best regards,

mmm... The application is designed to put in a middle the price on xx:30...
But I will zoom out so 1.3000 probably will be visible.

I have a question, how do I know if the stop loss / take profits on long side or short side? will it help to figure out the market's bias?

Basically I say (in a very simpified way): all sell orders above current price - are take profits. And all buy orders above current prices - stop losses.

It is not completely true.

But it does not matter, because (may be) this information can give some prediction power on "will the price reflect from this level" or "will the price accelerate through this level"

May I ask you for some references about " market's bias" ? I do not know what it is.
