I tried that didnt work looses like crazy the problem is sideways times of day for example futures analityca then evolved to L2azimuth orderbook trader nobody i know of has been able to replicate his winnings im not saying it cant be created is just that orderflow is decieving sometimes algos trap traders for liquidity and sometimes market pushes to your targets like a charm , so what do i mean by this .. is no matter what you build it will always loose because of what i mentioned , so it depends on your profit target too patterns dissapear fairly quick in the volume ladder sometimes 5 ticks profit target works on (im talking about nq or mnq ) and sometimes 20 ticks is too much it will go 15 ticks and stop you out thats why i mean when support and resistance name it vwap ,MA or whatever is where traders agree to initiate a trade but is just my opinion there might be good volume footprint traders hft algo trader the one that sells warhamer shifted to speed momentum in nq orderbooksweep patterns he once sold orderflow footprint then he dumped it didnt work.
Daytrading is difficult cause is a handfull of needs a trader must have discipline,accepting a loosing day and not going on tilt wich i doubt it ,trade small accepting a 100 dollar a day wining is too little but going to work for 100 dollars is painfull so many things
