It's a simple question. If you are an order flow trader, what do you use as a benchmark for "Big Money stepping in".

ES - 100 contracts? 300? 500?

ZN - 500 ? 1000?

Basically he said that you can't' tell which orders are big boys, because often they split their positions up into smaller batches.....so big prints can be mis-leading...he could even have made a bunch of trades prior and is covering the whole thing.....not trying to move the market at all.....so no good helpful info in terms of which way the market is going to move....

He went on to say the main thing to look for is total size and what the market is doing with that, and how it will impact the market in the near future....

BTW, I was turned onto John and NoBS Trading because one of my welcome post recommended I check it out. I did and I bought his course. It is outstanding, and John himself is stellar, taking time to answer several emails. I will post a full review in the vendors section once I get a bit more time
