Order Flow is a fantastic tool that shows all trades executed in the market, but it can also be a bit overwhelming because, as I said, it shows all orders executed in the market. But it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. In this video, I’ll show you how you can filter out all the noise meaning the small orders from retail traders and focus only on the big thing, which is the big players, institutions, simply the guys that move and manipulate the markets. So let me show you how to do this and how to trade it.
Now, another Order Flow setup that I would like to show you is big orders, or confirmation by big orders. And here’s how it goes. Take a look at this picture. This is the chart, the trade filter chart, where it only shows the big single orders. So it filters out all the noise and only shows the big orders.
Imagine that we have a support zone here. The price goes toward the support zone, and as it reaches it, a massive order appears. This is one single order. So it’s not an iceberg order and not a couple of separate smaller orders. This is one huge order 700 contracts at our support. Somebody big jumped in right now at this support. This is a clear signal that this is an important level and a signal for you to go long.
In this case, when dealing with those big orders, it’s not that important whether it appears on the bid or the ask. But it’s better if, for a long trade entry, it actually shows at the bid, because if it’s at the bid, then you can tell for sure that this is a huge buy limit order. But essentially, you just want to see a huge volume appear around the support zone on the trade filter chart. Then it’s confirmation for you to enter the trade.
Let me give you another example. Imagine we have a resistance here. The price hits that resistance zone, and in that resistance zone, 101 contracts show up on the trade filter. Again, this is one trade, one single trade. Somebody just entered over 100 contracts here at that resistance level. This is at the ask, so it’s very likely that this is a huge sell limit order, and confirmation for you to go short.
So this is confirmation by the big orders. Again, you need the trade filter. My software does it. With my software, you can easily filter out all the noise and track only the big orders. I’m pretty sure that other software has it as well, but I can’t really tell which one has it and which one doesn’t. TradingView probably doesn’t have it.
Anyways, here’s another example of confirmation by the big orders. Imagine that we have a resistance here. As the price reaches that resistance, we see one order of 600 contracts and another order of 400 contracts, both on the ask. It is very likely that somebody big was waiting here with their sell limit order, and when the price reached that resistance, those limit orders got filled and they went short and so should you.
All right, so that’s the confirmation. By the way, a funny thing which I noticed here is that we also have 400 contracts here and 600 contracts here. It’s likely that it’s the same trader exiting his trades here. So in this case, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to actually take the same sell trade here and then exit the position around this area.
Trade with the big guys. That’s the whole logic of my trading approach. Just follow the big guys who move and manipulate the market. We are just small fish we can’t really do anything. But if we follow the big guys, that’s how we can make our money.
