Yeah, its allot barer than it was 9 months ago! I've actually got the buy/sell volume on the chart but i only look at what happened at the highs or lows to see how strong the buying/or selling was...No oscillator now either.

I have the DOM, and the Reconstructed Tape on my other screen.

Simple stuff now...

I recommend BB Flashback. It's free, records multiple monitors setup and can record external sound, ie swearing, etc...
 
Thanks Avion, Joules...i have a free one now...just got to install again...

I don't see why you would trade that short term. The tick size and therefore move to get over the spread is 0.045 % And then you have far less increments to adjust target & stop.

Where the tick size on the Z or DAX is 0.008 %. 5 nearly 6 times smaller. Pushing up hill short term trading that. IMO.
 
Yeah, sort of feels that way too, but was interested in seeing how the thicker markets move...thanks for the visual too by the way....really needed that !!!

yes, whichever you read best/quickest ......also, no lift in call options pit last night with puts getting smashed and globex is likely to print +tive with spx cdf's showing 5 point lead-up....so +tive liquidity most markets and no set-up for news annocs......suspect a meek affair into US mid-day......most likely all the upside is in pre-cash
 


Seemed like lots of shorts getting burned on that last move...into the dinner drift now....

I should test it one day, sure we drift down on the dax every lunch time..

You need to break the action down, intraday trends sometimes and mean reverts on the rest. Some valid breakdowns are volatility per time (e.g. Monday 9-10AM is quite different from Thursdays 11-12PM), volatility per absolute momentum (e.g. low vals follow through, high vals mean revert), or volatility per volume (follow when auction is unbalanced zone, fade when auction is balanced zone). Of course you can combine them all but they tend to show high correlation anyway. For the record I use volatility per momentum as well as per time (love them opens), and tend to follow rather than fade intraday.

This is only an example, but if you read this
http://trading-naked.com/library/Chap3.pdf
there is a good 'thought experiment' on breaking an intraday strategy down by time (near the end) which could give you a good idea of what I mean.

Or take a look at the (daily) returns of 'follow through' strategies using this volatility per momentum, broken down per percentile

I'll post my scatter gram at the end of the day, one the positive side I've managed to get my losses much smaller, one or two ticks now...

EDIT: the HSI has put in a nice rising trend with some nice waves while the Kospi has just broken its AM range...
