For the first one I wanted to go with something light and easy to explain. As such, this video is about all the new site features we've been implementing here at orderflowtrading.com.

Applying Metagame Concepts in the Markets (http://www.orderflowtrading.com/Articles/tabid/243/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/1181/Applying-Metagame-Concepts-in-the-Markets.aspx) - Article
Posted:Mon, 24 Jun 2013 22:20:00 +0000
We have learned from the book "Order Flow Trading for Fun and Profit" that metagaming is a term used to define any method or strategy used in a game (read: the markets) that goes beyond a prescribed rule set and includes external factors to affect a game. In short, we have first to learn about the possibilities and limitations that exist in the marketplace (market microstructure), recognize who is participating in the markets and what their characteristics are and finally, combine all of this to exploit the various market inefficiencies that exist. In this article, I will show several examples of how metagaming can be applied when trading. However, it is important that you not limit metagaming to those examples, but make it part of your trading. Whenever you make a decision in your trading, may it be entering/closing or modifying a trade, you must think about what other participants might do and how this can affect your position.

Longer term Sentiment Analysis example for GBPUSD (http://www.orderflowtrading.com/Articles/tabid/243/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/1471/Longer-term-Sentiment-Analysis-example-for-GBPUSD.aspx) - Article
Posted:Fri, 28 Jun 2013 12:51:00 +0000
Sentiment analysis can be done using price action and how it reacts to certain price levels and certain news events. This is a very important part of sentiment analysis … but it can be analyzed more accurately by looking at different sources of information. This article will show how to analyze a change in longer term (days/weeks) sentiment using various tools, such as: Commitment of Traders (COT) Report analysis Daily Open Interest (OI) analysis from the futures market Fundamental data Option barriers And most importantly … Price action I will step through the analysis over a several week timeframe, looking at snapshots in time and analyze what is going on for the sentiment.

Analysis of coming week events and possible trading opportunities (http://www.orderflowtrading.com/Articles/tabid/243/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/1587/Analysis-of-coming-week-events-and-possible-trading-opportunities.aspx) - Article

In trading it is important to have a plan and to stick with it if you want to be successful. One of my trading ‘homework assignments’, if I may say it that way, is doing researching and writing down the coming week’s news releases and events, and then analyzing what impact they might have on the market when they come out. I don’t try to guess what numbers will come out or what Draghi or Bernanke will say in his press conference, because I’m not here for this and if I traded based on my guesses, this would be just gambling. Instead I try to find important areas around current price and where it might move, if certain predictions might happen.

MAN this video has been a pain in the ass to produce! But it's finally done... and it's kinda fitting that I'm finally able to post it on US Independence Day as I think the new product I'm discussing in it is going to help many aspiring traders finally achieve the financial independence they've been working toward.

Market Structure and Why Other People Matter - Part 1: Timetravelin’ (http://www.orderflowtrading.com/Articles/tabid/243/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/2092/Market-Structure-and-Why-Other-People-Matter--Part-1-Timetravelin.aspx) - Article
Posted:Mon, 15 Jul 2013 23:30:00 +0000
Why does the price of anything change? Forget the fancy things we trade like currencies, stocks, or commodity futures, but why does anything change in price? In fact, back up one more step: Why does anything even have a price to begin with? If you haven't taken time to devote yourself to learning this topic, you're leaving a giant hole in your knowledge base. It means that you're currently attempting to make a profit from the change in price of something without even knowing why its price is changing. It will take some time to help explain this concept from the ground up, but it will be well worth your patience. To start, I'm going to take you back in time. It's a time where there are no computers, no phones, no communication devices of any kind. If you need to interact with somebody, you'll have to meet them face-to-face. Because of this lack of technology, any exchange of goods or services (food, clothing, house cleaning, anything) has to be done directly from one individual to ano...

The new Opening reports are really good - I like the 'Flow' and 'Sentiment' sections, it makes it much more neat.

http://www.orderflowtrading.com/News/NewsFeed.aspx

I am especially finding the live "Chat" and the live news and squawk to be exceptionally helpful and informative. The live interchange of ideas, trading thoughts and advise from the chat as apposed to a forum keeps me fully engaged during the trading sessions.

All the best!

The site and actually mainly some of the experienced traders passing by regularly will give traders willing to put in the time and effort the posibility to really progress in understanding oneself, the market and it's participants.

i am loving the live chat and the live news feed very helpful

Position and Money Management (http://www.orderflowtrading.com/Articles/tabid/392/entryid/249/position-and-money-management.aspx) - Article
Posted:Wed, 24 Jul 2013 17:24:00 +0000
This article builds upon my previous article “Longer term Sentiment Analysis example for GBPUSD.” In that article I detailed how sentiment can be analyzed and showed how the change in sentiment led to a 600 pip run in GBPUSD in 1.5 weeks. This article will show how to enter a position and place a stop loss with a pre-defined risk amount, and how use order flow trading analysis to add to the position to maximize returns and minimize risk.

Trading Option Barriers (http://www.orderflowtrading.com/Articles/tabid/392/entryid/250/trading-option-barriers.aspx) - Article

Option barrier trading offers simple opportunities for the beginner to try and apply the orderflow mindset. It basically reduces the thought process to deciding who is stronger, the option attackers or defenders. As an added benefit, the stop loss or take profit level is usually defined.
While determining who is stronger, here is a rough guide on what to take note of:

Hi Darkstar!

I see 2 packages on your website. The only difference between them is that I must read the book online in the cheaper package? The hardcopy and the onlinebook is the same? Is it downloadable?

thanks!

This site has more trading resources than I have time to use. I'm usually in the chat during Asia/London calling out potential trades with the guys and analyzing FX securities. Many thanks to DS and the other mods for putting this all together to teach us on how all markets (not only FX) move, and how to profit from them. I highly recommend for new traders to get them started on the right path!

That is correct. They are basically identical. The online book is online only though... no download. The tradeoff is that there is no shipping and a thus a much lower price.

After I read Darkstar's book at least 10 times and made ton of notes, I saw it as my task to find at least another 5 order flow strategies in addition to the two core strategies presented in the book. I was all crazy about finding the next best strategy, like in my old days of technical analysis trading. Greed is present in many forms, obviously there is also greed for trading strategies. The last chapter in the book promised me there are a lot of inefficiencies in the market that can be exploited and I felt like going nuts because I could not find them. I then focused on the core strategies presented in the book and for me, it was all about the order and stop information from Reuters IFR. I interpreted many moves as stop hunts and was looking for the next best bid or offer level cited by Reuters to bring a trading opportunity. Well, after some time, I realized that was not really what order flow trading was about. What transformed my mindset was the realization that this is not about knowing every level wh ...

Darkstar’s Order Flow Trading Strategy (http://www.orderflowtrading.com/Articles/PremiumArticles/tabid/397/entryid/469/Darkstar-s-Order-Flow-Trading-Strategy.aspx) - Premium Article
‎Sunday, ‎January ‎06, ‎2013, ‏‎8:28:00 PM | Darkstar (reposted to new articles system)

For better or worse, it would seem that everyone who stumbles across something I've written inevitably wind's up asking me the same question; "What is your system for trading order flow?" After answering it at least 100 times via the real time trader chat, email, and over the phone, I figure I could save myself an awful lot of time if I just wrote it all out in one place. So today were going to look at my "Active Hedging - Order Flow Trading System" in all its glorious detail. However, I think I should warn you in advance that it's MY system. I've said many times that in order to achieve any meaningful degree of success as a trader, one needs to develop a system that fits their individual goals, strengths, and weaknesses. This system fits my wants and needs perfectly, and as a result, I enjoy great success trading it. Unfortunately, we are all unique beings and the success of someone who copies this method is far from assured... Still, I believe that analyzing my system - along with ...

Market Structure and Why Other People Matter – Part 2 (http://www.orderflowtrading.com/Articles/PublicArticles/tabid/392/entryid/498/Market-Structure-and-Why-Other-People-Matter-Part-2.aspx) - Article

Part 2: The Bizarre Bazaar This new idea of a market (or bazaar, or exchange, or any other name it might go by) seems great to everyone. Everybody leaves the meeting and spends the rest of the week preparing for the big Saturday ahead of them. The sun rises Saturday morning and the town square is full of excited participants and the air is filled with the buzz of buying and selling. Many of these people will be doing plenty of both since they need to sell their items for florps and then buy the things they need with those florps. (I know, I know. Just stick with me here) Aaron Applegrower is eager as his first customer approaches and sees his basket full of apples. Of course, the first question is, “How much do you charge for an apple?” Again, remember that there’s no magical force dictating price: The power of pricing is in the hands of the two parties who are trying to exchange something. Up until this day, Aaron has always traded with Frank at the rate of 2 florps for 1 apple. That stil ...
