I stumbled upon this when trying to understand how read order flow. It's a trader interview from a Prop Trading Firm. I'm not trying to plug this websites products. This one is free. I just found it really interesting and thought others would too.

Level 2 data is referred to a lot in the interview. Has anyone else found that data useful?

..well, it depends whether you're also able to read the fakes, walls, floors, etc. If you are not sure, learn or discard it.
