That's what I meant when I said "net buying" -- it has a nicer ring than "more contracts being executed at the offer than the bid."

out 62.50, -3 ticks ... thought they would push it up when it broke 63.50, but not this go around :(

will buy 63.25 and monitor closely, first sign of sell i'm out

Basically, yes -- NYSE TICK and delta are, from my recollection of seeing side-by-side examples, often similar; though TICK is a snapshot of upticks and downticks and therefore oscillates, whereas delta can be summed and therefore is not oscillatory in nature. Uptick and downtick can be used to...

Market orders, or contracts? Of course volume will give you contracts. Unfortunately with ES we have no way of knowing how many actual market orders are executed due to how CME reports transactions, but we know it's at least the number of ticks over a given range. More helpful to me than...

cancel order for now

When people talk about delta, it's very common to use the term "net buying" or "net selling" ... if the market is tanking and people say "there is heavy selling going on," don't you think it's implied that they're talking about market sell orders? And don't you think it's implied that there are...

I meant market orders. That should be a given but oh well.

enough volume built up here in this tiny range that if it pops to 65 there should be quite a few stops

will buy 64.25

Call me a contrarian, but we built value up here around 63, and have not really been above it in almost 2 hours -- so while my bias is long, I need to see trade above 63 to even consider 73 -- at this point we are trading below the heavily weighted mode of the distribution at 63, and shorts may...

V should get a prize or something

You're having shit for lunch? Time for a new menu! :D

If net buying from 9:00 to 10:30 was +15K contracts, and price went up about 8-10 points, then from 10:30 to 12:00 the net buying was up another +25K contracts, how much would you expect price to be up since 10:30?

How do you see them coming? I'm always looking for ways to shave off a few years of practice :)

bid/ask volume -- not uptick/downtick if that's what you're asking.

have the bulls bitten off more than they can chew? http://screencast.com/t/6jLiAM0Y

It looks to me like we are due for a pullback. I will look to get long in the area marked in the chart -- 50% of the day's range, VPOC, and IB high all within a 1 point range .. will see how we react down there. It may just keep going up from here but from what I see I think bulls are...

Never done this before on sim, but you're right, it feels great to see that green :-D Probably hurts a lot to see it in the red too :) http://screencast.com/t/Rgsfnqed
