MARKET DEPTH – HOW TO USE DOM MODULE FOR MAKING TRANSACTION ON THE EXCHANGE

MARKET DEPTH – HOW TO USE DOM MODULE FOR MAKING TRANSACTION ON THE EXCHANGE


Market depth DOM (Depth of Market) - the integrated trading platform or a separate program in the form of the tool, which shows the layout limit orders, as Bid- is also Ask's side.

The disadvantage of this instrument is that a large player uses manipulations and many traders have become victims of these actions. As a rule, a marketing tool uses a well-known method of manipulation called spoofing (spoofing).

During the spawn, a large player at a certain price level will place large limits on the DOM in order to create the illusion for the retailers that the market is going to start a movement in a particular direction. As soon as the small traders open the orders in this direction, the market makers receive a sufficient amount of liquidity than they instantly remove the DOM from this large limit orders as a result of their stop-loss orders, the price starts against the retailers, which makes a strong impetus and becomes more accelerated.

Because of this moment, most of the experienced traders did not use the DOM module as they considered it absolutely fair and useless. But not too long ago the application appeared in the market, which has ratified it and the aggregate stock DOM- tape synthesis, the so-called "Depth & Sales".

This application is the same as the traditional DOM, it shows not only the limit orders deployment of the instrument, but additionally provides information about the number of contracts performed in this or that level, after the price reached a certain level (in addition to the application of the volume profile). Accordingly, we have information on how many limitations are available on a certain level and then we have information about how much a contract has been signed by the price.

The difference between the quantity of the limit and the actual contracts placed at the price level gives the possibility to:

1. Do not get into the trap laid by a large player, do not become a spy victim;
2. Identify the marketing warrants by the market makers according to specific levels.
3. This application is especially effective for scalping and trading within the day.

Formation of "triple bottom"

Image
The formation of " triple bottom " in technical analysis is recognized as a substitute for trend direction movement. It consists of 3 minimums and it indicates the change in the downward trend. The formation of "triple bottom" is similar to its structure with the "dual bottom" figure; the difference is that it adds another minimum. The formation "triple bottom" is formed on the background of a strong downward trend. In case, if the market is not set up in the downward trend and we see a similar figure of "triple bottom", this means that the patent is similar to that figure but not the "triple bottom" pattern. Pic 1. - The formation of a "triple bottom" The basic elements of the "triple bottom" are 1. Formation of a "triple bottom" must be preceded by a strong downward trend. 2.

Stock ribbon (Times & Sales) and effective trade exchange The stock ribbon  is a great help to the traders in trading, although many think that it is almost impossible to read the stock ribbon and the DOM (Depth Market Market) after a wide arrangement of the HFT algorithms on the market.  But the fact is that most of the successful traders have the art of reading the stock tape. According to some traders, the graphs are a history because they are created in the stock line and the flow of incoming traffic in the DOM. The graphs cannot exist without the stock ribbon , but the stock tape will always exist without graphs. It should be noted that the information received from the  stock tape  and the DOM fills each other, although the two modules come in very different information. Fig. 1 - Limit orders layout DOM module In the DOM we have information about the possible intent of the traders. Bid and Ask, which are located on either the side of the colu

Mathematical Expectations and Trading System Evaluation Methodology

Mathematical E xpectations and Trading System Evaluation Methodology Mathematical expectations play a great role in evaluating trading systems , in addition to fundamental and technical analysis, trading plays an important role in mathematics, more precisely, the capital Trade Management System.  And, the main parameter of the system, the so-called  Mathematical Expectation. Traders may have full knowledge of technical analysis, is well aware of macroeconomics, realize what fundamental factors influence on the market, but if the trade is based on a negative  mathematical expectation , then it will never be successful in this activity.  Even if the transaction is closed with a profit of 8 to 10 from the transaction, it will still be a loss. For example, if the profit from each deal amounted to 10 pips, while the loss of trade in the case of item 50, we get the following picture: Earnings: 8 * 10 = 80 pips; Losses: 2 * 50 = 100 pips; Total: 80 - 1
