Help -indicator to show limit order transactions

[Traderbeauty]

Hello Friends.

 

Currently I am using noft orderflow indicators to show me buyers and sellers right at my entry level.

 

I also use GomDeltaVolume and AcmeVolumeBlance on 1 and 2 plain renko bars. ( see the image).

 

Many times I see a lot of buyers ( for example) but yet the market does not go up; the reason is that there were limit transactions that absorbed the market orders and that is why the market did not go up.

 

All the common indicators are showing us only the MARKET ORDERS amount, delta, total etc but we are missing the LIMIT part.

 

Auction Dashboard supposedly came up with an "Absorption" indication that suppose to show us the limit part of the trades- .

 

I have been trying it live for the last few days but it does not seems to do the job.( at least not what I look at ).

 

So my question is---

 

Is there a simple way to see how many LIMIT buys or sells are at a certain level - keep in mind that i use 1 and 2 tick plain renko.

 

Thank you all in advance.

Hi Traderbeauty,

 

Yes of course !! There are some tools that you can see to see this Limit Orders.

 

1.- BookMap. Hard to read, but some friends find it useful. OscarBull15 can give us some insights in how he uses.

2.- AuctionVista from ******Trading. From my point of view is more easy to understand than BM. Here explanation of last release. I like that in the same spot shows Bid/ask volume

3.- MZMarketDepth Indicator from MzPack, shows Limit Orders, It is persistent (You can adjusts parameter on the fly and see effect inmediatly.

4.- Order Book Imbalance is another good indicator. This works very fine for me. :)

5.- SmartBook is another one, I dont know, but i think is more or less like MzMarketDepth.

 

If you want to see absortion in real time DOM from ****** is a good option, but you have to learn how to identifty it...

 

I hope this help yuo.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kind Regards.

Hi Meow,

I don't need to enligthing you;). Traderbeauty was asking for a level 2 indicator to put on his chart and this is what i showed.

[⭐ Meow]

Cool, maybe instead you can recommend indicator that compare limit orders with actual executed orders.

IMHO it isn't what she's looking for ,and i think it doesn't exist 'cause CME does not provide this data...

[kavalan]

Let's Traderbeauty says if it's or not ;)

[microsat2]

if you are right, does it mean that any order flow indicator is actually useless, for example the OFA?

Can someone confirm if trading with OFA is profitable or not?

thanks.

Hello Friends.

Thank you all for your wonderful help and suggestions.

Since there seems to be some confusion then let me explain again what i am looking for.

 

All the orderflow indicators are showing us only the MARKET ORDERS under the pretense that "MARKET ORDERS ARE THE ONLY ORDERS THAT MOVE THE MARKET".

I do not dispute that assumption but...it seems that many times market orders are being swollen by limit orders.I see that live all the time- and again- i will give an example- i look at a certain level entry- and it makes no difference if that is a support or resistance or fib etc. I see a lot of sellers ( for example) and yet the market does not go down- on the contrary - after a short fight it goes up and swallows all these short market orders.

That happens because of one fact- THE MARKET ORDERS WERE SWALLOWED BY THE LONG LIMIT ORDERS.

So unless we have some way to see that part of the limit orders our market orders indicators are worthless or lets say wont give us a complete picture.

 

I tried to look at the vitalli indicator (bitbucket) but it seems to me that it just showing the waiting limit orders visually- that wont help because its just showing the dom- the fact that there are 1000 contracts waiting to be sold or bought does not mean anything- by the time we get there it might change -it does not mean that these orders were actually bought or sold.

That is the same indication that bookmap is giving us visually- but again - it does not tell us how many contracts were actually bought or sold at limit.

not sure about j.i.g.s.a.w. - whenever i open it i get a headache after few minutes.remember - trading is not easy and we need something conclusive and visual, i dont want to fight with numbers running on my screen.

I tried to watch mz-pack market depth but it says in the his description that it only shows the waiting limit orders on the dom - which again is not good.

will try the smart book - mzpack but i dont have high expectations specifically since mikhail disappeared on us and does not respond.

so bottom line- i am still searching for an indicator that will show us how many contracts were bought or sold at LIMIT on a certain bar.

 

thank you all again- you are wonderful.

p.s- regarding templates- i just insert the indicators using default- nothing special.

Not quite sure if you actually understand how price discovery works. Every market order is executed against a limit order. Period. Which means every (market) buy is a (limit) sell and vice versa. The market orders you see on the T&S are also the limit orders. If you see a lot of market orders executed and price doesn't move you either have a huge limit order(depth as seen on bookman and vista) that was real or an iceberg order. I never looked at bookmap because I don't care about the depth until price reaches that level, only then we can tell if the limits shown beforehand were actually real. A great way to see it is the vista chart because the colours show you a very clear picture. If you have a very light colour (huge limit) and market orders are absorbed you have a real big limit order, on the other hand if it shows you a darker colour and suddenly market orders are absorbed somebody stepped in with an iceberg and is just accumulating without showing his limit size.

 

Edit: Almost forgot you can also plot little triangles and rectangles for icebergs and bigger size orders directly on your chart. You can find those in the summary tape preferences

kavalan could you tell us what inidicator you use to

Hi TB,

I understand what you are saying and there is no easy way to see the real limit orders at one level because X_Trader and some other order entry systems can hide the actual limit orders and only show the tip of the iceberg, known as iceberg orders. There are 2 ways I identify them :

1) Add J*g**w summary tape indicator to the chart and switch on Iceberg Alert, it does a good enough job and has both audio and print alerts - both bid and ask.

2) This one is tedious and I avoid it most of the time. Look at J*g**w Dom and see if the new orders are being added or pulled at that price level. They show +/- to highlight if new limits are being added or pulled from that level. Many times new liquidity is added to the limit but they don't meet the iceberg criteria, so this is the only way to know if limits are being replenished or not - net change on the book at a price level will tell you which side is more aggressive.

Best Regards,
