    What causes the price to jump +/- >1 point on the DOM when there are offers in btwn?

    Hmm. Cuz that never happens on NQ so I thought maybe ES had different rules about DOM or something.

    What causes the price to jump +/- >1 point on the DOM when there are offers in btwn?

    So what would you expect to see here when the DOM is showing a total bid vol of like 68 and a total ask vol of like 1400? Also how come NQ DOM only shows 5 levels, but on this ES I can scroll up and down and see tons of orders all over the place?

    Quantum forex online? Scam?

    I've seen some managed Forex funds that looked totally legit. Some of them I found out about cuz they sent me a nice presentation package in the mail on high gloss paper telling about how they make 11ty billion percent per year and I should invest with them (obviously spam cuz I never requested...

    Quantum forex online? Scam?

    Pretty much anything that involves the words "Forex" and "Online" is a scam. Other key words you should look for are "robots," "auto trading," 1000% gains.

    What causes the price to jump +/- >1 point on the DOM when there are offers in btwn?

    I have TaS up next to my chart. But I hear that you can't really tell anything from that chart other than the fact that large orders are being filled, but even if they're on the bid or ask, that doesn't give any clue into market directions (so I'm told). Please tell me if this is not the...

    What causes the price to jump +/- >1 point on the DOM when there are offers in btwn?

    What do you mean "a large lot in a direction"? Like a huge order somewhere on the bid or ask side? If this is what you meant, then how does "don't look at the bid and ask" apply? Or do you mean look at time and sales? A related DOM question: How come some futures show 5 levels, but...

    What causes the price to jump +/- >1 point on the DOM when there are offers in btwn?

    Which leads me to one of the following conclusions: 1. There is no edge to be gained through using DOM 2. There is an edge to be gained but my software is hindering me (ie. I am unable to utilize it) 3. People who claim to use DOM as their edge are lying 4. I lack the...

    What causes the price to jump +/- >1 point on the DOM when there are offers in btwn?

    I'm OCD about pattern recognition. And I also have no problem being wrong if it's supported by empirical evidence. For example if I read somewhere that "price goes where volume is," that would suggest that if the offer outweighed the bid by like 3 or 4x, that price should go UP. That makes...

    What causes the price to jump +/- >1 point on the DOM when there are offers in btwn?

    I'm seriously trying to learn how to utilize the DOM to my advantage but I feel like I'm wasting my time. I've found a couple articles on line but the things they say happen way too quickly for a human like me to capitalize on them. At first I thought it would be possible to just look at the...

    What causes the price to jump +/- >1 point on the DOM when there are offers in btwn?

    But wouldn't that have traded through those offers rather than skipping them altogether?

    What causes the price to jump +/- >1 point on the DOM when there are offers in btwn?

    Say you're looking at the NQ and it looks like this: 1377.00 1376.75 1376.50 1376.25 20 1376.00 20 1375.75 15 1375.50 35 1375.25 20 (2) 1375.00 15...

    Help me understand Time and Sales and large orders

    Can you please give me some tips on how I can help differentiate this? As of right now I'm thinking big orders are big orders and it doesn't matter if they're on the bid or the ask.
