I’ve been building bidstrata, a fast charting and order flow app for futures. Could use a few people to try it and tell me what they think. This is Friday’s open replaying at normal speed.
DM me if you’re up for testing it. A repost would help too, I’m starting from zero here.
Any futures mac/linux futures traders here? I’ve been disappointed with the platform options for is non-windows users and made my own. I’m opening it for private beta later this week. Let me know if you're interested in the comments and I’ll send you more details.
$GC_F held nicely above the OVN high. If there is initiation from the buyers, gold can definitely drift to the prior weeks POC - which lies inside a 3wk balance.
Only 2 trades today. I was watching the LVN below the OVN range on $NQ_F. I tried to anticipate the reversal and got flushed. Tried again closer to the overnight low where sellers where aggressively shorting the hole and this time it paid off. Calling it a week here 🫡
$NQ_F had some scratches after the news print. Waited and saw absorption present near the OVN POC, confluent with a HVN from yesterday's RTH session (not pictured). Added a bit more on the rebid. Didn't let it run further because of them consistency rules ; _ ;
I haven't posted in a while because I've been on a really bad steak. When I actually sat down to think about why the issue was clear. I was simply too zoomed in and was not allowing price to breathe. I switched to time charts these past two days and things are much better.
Messy day for me. A couple of losses could have been avoided, but overall green! Yesterday's levels played out really well today. $NQ_F
I've been a sierra fanboy for a while now, but today, for the first time, it fell short. I'll give @MotiveWave a tip of my hat here because without being able to access time-stamped bid/ask data, this trade sweep aggregator would not be possible!
Friday vibes. Clean rotation from the edge of the 5D VP. Nice confluence with yesterday's TPO buying tail.
VP evangelists will never tell you this. They say value area this or that. The real magic of the VP lies in it showing you where the most amount of participants got trapped at the time of a flush. Thats where value is, not some random statistic.
Clean trade on $GC_F. We took out yesterday's POC then waited for an entry around the node on the return from the highs.
