Havent posted in a while. As far as the (block) trades discussed earlier, it is used with the Time&Sales Level 2 data. It is usually called the modern day Tape. It is great for calling false breakouts as you can see when institutional buyers/sellers are really hitting the market and when it is just "dumb" money moving it. It is great when you place a trade and as it approaches the immediate s/r line seeing the big blocks entering. I have a block filter of 100+ set on it. I know a guy who has a scalping system he uses that really is based around t&s reading only. It is a skill to learn and takes some time. I suggested it to ESR so he can really gauge when price is going to bounce off his S/R lines especially counter trend. I have such a hard time taking countertrend trades because I can't usually take one with confidence. I use a variation of ESR's method with price action that Anek uses.
