Hey Wartrace, fine tuning and various setups are much more detailed and granular on Bookmap. I love jigsaw but at the moment the heatmap is not as good as Bookmap, hence my choice to have both, but everyone is different and someone else might think differently.
I might do a video on what I use Bookmap for precisely but I don't want to be completely out of subject or highjack this file which was initially a review of Footprint training if I am not wrong, so I would need to do that on a different file or create a new file, I am not quite sure what is best, I don't want to be a nuisance!
Yupp agree there is more to it than just that limit/market relationship, but in effect this is the only thing that makes the price move. If one can understand this....market structure and understanding why price is moving rather than after it moves becomes easy.
anyways glad that you said...HFT candle is not magical
will be great to see actual trade videos on how you use JS & Bkmap. I too cannot live with Jigsaw which I think is one of the most powerful OF tools.....but i also use Bkmap as it is also a fantastic tool
Posting a link i personally found useful when I wanted to understand how a LOB really works.
I had found this a while back while exploring R and LOB.
There are various links posted by the author of the article. I found it comprehensive and found greater meaning when I was told by one of my mentors how the Limit/Market orders may be working. Though I do not have R or the infra the author has shown in the article. I go back to this article many times.....and always get some added info. This has been a great link for me to refer. Though educational in nature and points to other articles....the author has imho done a great job in liiustrating the inner finer workings of the all illusive Limit Order Book "LOB".
also perhaps a link which was at sometime posted by @Silvester17 since OP wanted to know more on footprints. i dont use FPs currently so am not sure....but i think it was posted by @Silvester17 and if so might be a good resource
Absolutely no idea if its any good or not but they do have a whole bunch of youtube videos on orderflow so it may be worth exploring. Here at FIO, we do pride ourselves at looking under EVERY rock. Hopefully, there is no scorpion here
I don't doubt it. Still, one might be able to pick up a thing or two. They do seem to have identified a number of potential 'setups'. But it certainly doesn't hurt to be skeptical.
On a related topic, I would be interested to see a video on how you use jigsaw tools. That might appear to be self-evident to some, but not all
