Order Flow - Delta full class | தமிழ் #orderflow #orderflowtrading #trading #tradingtamil
Main summary
Key takeaways
Main ideas, concepts, and lessons
-
Core theme: “Order Flow” beats “Price Action” for timing trades
- Price-based traders often rely on candlesticks/indicators, but these can be misled by fake breakouts and market manipulation.
- The argument: volume + depth + delta (order flow) show who is actually in control (buyers vs. sellers), producing clearer trade decisions.
-
Volume is necessary but not sufficient
- It’s not enough to see volume bars.
- The class emphasizes decoding volume and connecting it to where orders execute, not just what the candle looks like.
-
“Inside a candle” matters
- Candle color (green/red) can mislead if you treat it as the truth.
- The candle should be viewed as a container of executed order quantities (buy/sell participation), not merely OHLC price movement.
-
Order execution vs. pending orders
- A recurring distinction:
- Pending orders may sit in the book.
- Executed orders reflect actual aggressive buying/selling and should guide interpretation.
- A recurring distinction:
-
Order book / depth / footprint approach
- Order-flow ideas include:
- Buy walls / sell walls (large “pockets” of liquidity)
- How large resting liquidity can be consumed during a move
- When big liquidity appears at a breakout level, it may indicate:
- Genuine institutional participation, or
- A trap (liquidity that gets pulled/ignored leading to reversal)
- Order-flow ideas include:
-
Delta as the “net aggression” signal
- Delta is defined as the net difference between buyer-initiated and seller-initiated quantities at a level/time bucket (often per candle).
- Delta helps judge:
- Whether a breakout is supported by net buying
- Whether a breakdown is supported by net selling
- Related concepts mentioned:
- Cumulative Max Delta
- Exhaustion / absorption (to anticipate reversal or continuation)
-
Market Profile / Volume Profile framing
- Multiple “profiles” are used together:
- Market Profile: focuses on price + time and identifies value areas
- Volume Profile: focuses on price levels weighted by volume
- Order flow: adds behavioral evidence via executed order imbalance
- Use: find where value is concentrated and where high-probability trades may occur (e.g., where a large percentage of trading happened).
- Multiple “profiles” are used together:
-
Value area and the “70% trade location” idea
- The class repeatedly claims that a large proportion of trading (often referenced as ~70%) happens inside the value area.
- The value area is treated as a context map for interpreting breakouts and for judging whether price is “accepting” or “rejecting” levels.
-
Trapped traders and fake breakouts
- Fake moves are attributed to baiting:
- Sellers may “drop” liquidity to lure buyers into breakouts/buying.
- Buyers may do the same against sellers during reversals.
- The lesson: identify when price action is being used to bait orders, and exit/avoid traps.
- Fake moves are attributed to baiting:
-
Data/timeframes and speed
- Different candle intervals are referenced (30s, 5min, 1min).
- Order flow/delta is described as relying on tick-by-tick execution (microsecond-level concepts mentioned), so timing matters.
-
Practical trading workflow advocated
- Locate context using profiles (support/resistance, value area, etc.).
- Wait for order-flow confirmation (depth/footprint + volume decoding + delta).
- Trade only when executed orders align (not merely when a candle “looks” bullish/bearish).
- Use delta to validate breakout/breakdown and avoid traps.
- Apply stop loss/targets as part of disciplined execution.
Methodology / instruction-style points
A) How to interpret order flow (Delta / depth / volume)
-
Decode volume properly
- Treat volume as executed quantity, not just a bar.
-
Look for executed orders vs. pending orders
- Prefer interpretation based on what actually traded (executed) rather than resting/pending liquidity.
-
Use candle “inside information”
- Don’t rely on candle color alone.
- Assess net buyers vs. net sellers within the candle timeframe.
-
Compute/observe Delta
- Delta = buyer-initiated volume − seller-initiated volume (net).
-
Validate breakouts/breakdowns
- Breakout: prefer positive/green delta behavior (net buying) at/around the breakout trigger.
- Breakdown: prefer negative/red delta behavior (net selling).
-
Watch for signs of exhaustion / absorption
- Use delta patterns to infer whether one side is being worn out or if liquidity is being absorbed.
B) Combine profiles (Market/Volume Profile) with order flow
-
Use Market Profile for context
- Identify:
- Value area (where trading concentrates)
- Price acceptance/rejection zones
- Consider price + time structure.
- Identify:
-
Use Volume Profile for level importance
- Identify high-volume price levels that can act like magnets/resistance/support.
-
Trade only when context + order flow agree
- A breakout without order-flow confirmation is treated as higher risk (fake-trap potential).
C) Trap avoidance (fake breakout / trapped traders)
-
Identify fake breakout conditions
- If price breaks out but delta/footprint suggests the “other side” still dominates (or liquidity isn’t truly being consumed), label it a fake breakout.
-
Detect bait liquidity (“liquidity drop”)
- If large displayed liquidity appears but execution doesn’t confirm, assume trapping.
-
Avoid trading from fear
- Repeated warning: don’t enter due to emotion—wait for confirmation.
D) Trading execution rules implied in the class
-
Place entries only after confirmation
- Entry is tied to:
- Order/quantity arrival
- Delta alignment
- Value-area context (when used)
- Entry is tied to:
-
Set stop loss
- Stop-loss is mentioned as a protective step after entry.
-
Manage targets
- Targets are linked to context structure (support/resistance/value areas) and the expected move.
