00:00:00
hey everyone it's Mike from order flows
00:00:01
and welcome to this second video on the
00:00:03
order flows Delta surge now you know the
00:00:06
Delta surge is a free indicator that we
00:00:07
give away on our website order flows
00:00:09
calm and it works on ninjatrader 8 it
00:00:12
doesn't work on TLS it doesn't work on
00:00:15
tradestation I use ninja trader 8 and
00:00:18
that's why it was programmed for ninja
00:00:19
trader 8 so it could be downloaded
00:00:21
simply by going to order flows calm
00:00:23
slash Delta surge HTML at the bottom of
00:00:27
the page you will have to enter your
00:00:29
name and email address to get access to
00:00:32
the download now before I begin you know
00:00:34
a brief disclaimer you know please
00:00:35
understand that trading involves risk
00:00:37
and only risk Apple should be used for
00:00:40
trading so you know the Delta search the
00:00:43
reason I released it you know for free
00:00:46
is because you know a lot of people say
00:00:48
hey Mike you know I'm interested in
00:00:49
trading with the order flow but you know
00:00:52
I don't know where to start and yeah in
00:00:55
order flow there's a lot of different
00:00:58
data points so to speak right Delta you
00:01:01
got pointed control Delta runs on the
00:01:03
bottom you have point of control you
00:01:05
have imbalances and the Delta surge is
00:01:08
actually one of the ways that when I I
00:01:11
first started using order flow you know
00:01:14
way back when was it it helped me
00:01:17
understand you know when buying or
00:01:20
selling in terms of you know the
00:01:22
aggressive buyers or the aggressive
00:01:24
sellers when they're you know sort of
00:01:26
waking up and getting stronger and you
00:01:30
know for for example here right this is
00:01:32
wheat right I used to trade a lot of
00:01:35
commodities that's how I end up getting
00:01:36
my job at JPMorgan is because I was a
00:01:39
commodity trader I spent you know many
00:01:41
years at Cargill which is a big
00:01:43
commodity trading company I spent years
00:01:45
at ETF man and you know if you've ever
00:01:49
traded commodities you know things like
00:01:51
wheat or corn you know beans as beans
00:01:55
can move pretty good but you know some
00:01:58
of the other commodities like you know
00:01:59
palm oil and bean oil and soy meal
00:02:03
you'll understand what I'm talking about
00:02:05
on sideways moving markets so for
00:02:07
example wheats all right we would you
00:02:10
know wheat is a market it oftentimes
00:02:12
goes sideways
00:02:13
it makes them
00:02:14
go sideways makes a move and what I
00:02:17
would be looking for in the order flow
00:02:18
is clues on okay well which way are we
00:02:22
going to do it we're just gonna keep
00:02:23
going sideways or we gonna move lower
00:02:25
we're gonna turn around go higher and I
00:02:28
would look at the Delta and look for
00:02:30
clues there so you know if you
00:02:32
understand what Delta is it's the net
00:02:34
difference between aggressive buyers and
00:02:36
aggressive sellers aggressive buyers are
00:02:38
those that buy at the market aggressive
00:02:39
sellers are those that sell at the
00:02:41
market you know when I say at the market
00:02:43
you know they could be hitting the bid
00:02:46
they could be sweeping through the book
00:02:47
basically they're coming in there being
00:02:49
the aggressor in the market so if the
00:02:53
Delta is negative right the final Delta
00:02:55
here you can see the top line Delta
00:02:57
minus 12 it tells me sellers are in
00:02:59
control barely it's only minus 12
00:03:01
there's only 12 more aggressive sellers
00:03:05
than aggressive buyers the next bars -75
00:03:08
tells me in this bar there were 75 more
00:03:11
aggressive sellers than aggressive
00:03:13
buyers minus 164 tell me there's 164
00:03:18
more aggressive sellers then aggressive
00:03:20
buyers so I know over these basically
00:03:23
these four bars
00:03:24
it went from aggressive buyers to
00:03:27
aggressive sellers more aggressive
00:03:28
sellers more aggressive sellers so I
00:03:30
would know that aggressive sellers are
00:03:32
you know over this period here
00:03:35
aggressive sellers are in control okay
00:03:37
now how would I use that is you know if
00:03:41
I would be looking for weak points in
00:03:44
the market okay in this case for sells
00:03:46
I'd be looking for a weak points in the
00:03:47
market if it was a delta surge by I'd be
00:03:49
looking for signs of strength and you
00:03:52
can see here right right here at the low
00:03:53
so I'll be looking for you know more
00:03:56
selling coming in you know at these lows
00:03:58
and so I can imagine right the initial
00:04:01
low here is what five forty one and
00:04:03
three-quarters market keeps going and
00:04:06
selling off selling off selling off five
00:04:09
forty one and three quarters you see
00:04:10
here's another Delta surge coming in
00:04:13
another Delta surge coming in all the
00:04:17
way down to the lows of the day down
00:04:19
here at 5:29 so this market dropped you
00:04:23
know from up here what it was trading
00:04:25
you know 541 and a half
00:04:27
down to five down you know down to new
00:04:30
lows on the close of the day all right
00:04:33
so is it nice 10-cent drop in wheat now
00:04:40
again you know what was the for me what
00:04:44
was the early sign that this market was
00:04:45
gonna sell off was the Delta surge the
00:04:48
aggressive selling coming in pausing
00:04:50
more aggressive selling coming in
00:04:52
pausing alright then I know that there's
00:04:56
more aggressive selling going on than
00:04:58
aggressive buying so you know for at the
00:05:00
lows the day aggressive selling coming
00:05:01
in it's got a it's got more opportunity
00:05:05
to go lower
00:05:07
unless there's obviously gonna be signs
00:05:08
of aggressive mind coming in now it's a
00:05:13
little bit different when you're looking
00:05:14
at markets that aren't necessarily
00:05:18
driven by supply and demand the way
00:05:20
commodity markets are right the
00:05:23
commodity markets you know are really
00:05:25
more tied down to supply and demand then
00:05:29
say equity markets okay so like for
00:05:33
example the e-mini x' you know there's a
00:05:36
lot of speculative money going on in
00:05:37
there there's a lot of money that goes
00:05:39
into those markets that never see
00:05:41
commodities and you know there's I don't
00:05:46
say it's it's not based on supply and
00:05:47
demand but it's it's more based on
00:05:50
return on the money right then then
00:05:53
necessarily trading in supply and demand
00:05:54
yeah you're not gonna eat your stock
00:05:56
certificates but you know things like
00:05:58
wheat go to delivery physical delivery
00:06:01
you know we're the ultimately producers
00:06:04
make food out of it so you know there's
00:06:07
sort of a different dynamic that goes on
00:06:09
with things like equities as as opposed
00:06:13
to commodities now you know I sent the
00:06:15
email out yesterday and you know people
00:06:18
are saying I made a mistake I
00:06:20
accidentally put the gold chart in there
00:06:21
twice I supposed to do a emini chart and
00:06:24
a gold chart but for some reason I
00:06:27
accidentally copy pasted posted both the
00:06:31
gold chart as both of them but anyway I
00:06:33
did get a lot of questions about how
00:06:35
does it look on the micro charts right
00:06:37
the micro minis or the micro Nasdaq so
00:06:41
let's just take a look okay I'm just
00:06:42
gonna this is the Delta search on the
00:06:45
micro emini the mes contract okay I'm
00:06:49
just gonna go back this is what day is
00:06:52
this here this is xx which is what
00:06:55
Monday night this Monday night or Sunday
00:06:57
night let me just see
00:07:01
well yeah starting on the 20th okay so
00:07:05
at 5:00 p.m. so you can see there's some
00:07:09
nice little cells coming in here okay
00:07:11
nice little cells now again the Delta
00:07:13
surge is not a tool that's supposed to
00:07:15
pick every single mark a turning point
00:07:17
based on the order flow it's looking for
00:07:19
expansion either to the strong side or
00:07:23
to the weak side whether it's aggressive
00:07:26
buyers or aggressive sellers coming into
00:07:28
the market and you know you can see here
00:07:30
right this is just in the evening
00:07:32
session all right here's a nice little
00:07:33
cell here's a nice little cell here this
00:07:36
one you know I sort of came back before
00:07:37
it dropped off this one it dropped off
00:07:40
and then you know stopped Jonathan
00:07:42
here's a nice little cell here there's a
00:07:43
nice little cell here a nice little cell
00:07:44
here okay so just go back you know this
00:07:47
is on now the 21st in the morning early
00:07:51
morning going into the main session here
00:07:53
you know there was nothing during this
00:07:55
period okay fine but then you get the
00:07:57
bye you got the cell there you got a
00:07:59
late bye
00:08:02
here's a cell did come up a bit and then
00:08:05
you got a nice bye here this body didn't
00:08:10
work out there was a nice cell up here
00:08:12
now you know the difference with trading
00:08:16
commodities and trading markets you know
00:08:20
like equity markets for me is I'm not
00:08:23
you know how to put it I'm not afraid to
00:08:28
sell new highs or new lows in
00:08:31
commodities because I know that
00:08:33
underlying what's that force underlying
00:08:36
is really supply and demand I'm a little
00:08:38
bit hesitant to buy new highs or sell
00:08:40
new lows in equities just because it
00:08:43
sort of the market makeup is a bit
00:08:44
different so honestly I would prefer to
00:08:47
be taking cells up near heΓs not buys
00:08:52
near highs I'd be for preferred
00:08:54
take byes sort of near swing lows in the
00:08:59
equities that's that's me
00:09:00
that's how I trade in regards to
00:09:02
equities you know there's uh again these
00:09:11
are coming in near the low of the day
00:09:12
again you know it's up to you there's
00:09:14
still capacity for the market to go
00:09:15
lower but how much lower can it go
00:09:20
alright I prefer to take a signal like
00:09:22
this you know coming off a swing high
00:09:30
but this is the mes you know again if
00:09:34
you could short this going into the lows
00:09:36
but I think the better trade is to get
00:09:38
long coming up off the lows just like
00:09:44
here the I think this is a better trait
00:09:47
to take then you know like this or this
00:09:53
you know after you just had a nice rally
00:09:55
but you know to each their own
00:09:57
so let's take a look at Nasdaq you know
00:10:00
not everybody's gonna trade the way I
00:10:01
trade and I'm not gonna trade the way
00:10:03
you trade you know it's about finding
00:10:04
your own trading style that resonates
00:10:08
with you
00:10:08
okay you should nice little cells here
00:10:11
this was on the 20th coin it's a 21st
00:10:20
again I don't want to go into all these
00:10:23
things that you want to show you you
00:10:25
know how it performs on these different
00:10:29
micro contracts because you get a lot of
00:10:32
people asking how does it look on the
00:10:34
micro contracts now again you know the
00:10:36
settings you can change the settings
00:10:38
I'll just talk about that really quick
00:10:40
in a minute so that's that okay so you
00:10:47
can see here right the settings the ones
00:10:50
are you really going to be concerned
00:10:51
with is this bar minimum bar D Delta
00:10:58
difference bar C minimum Delta
00:11:01
differences default is set to 25 and 25
00:11:03
you could change it say it's in
00:11:06
percentage I have to really
00:11:08
open this up so you can see here see in
00:11:10
percent so you know you could even use
00:11:12
you know no you know 1% okay say you
00:11:17
want just an incremental change sort of
00:11:19
the the smallest change that you can get
00:11:21
you set it to one not that it's going to
00:11:23
make that big a difference but you know
00:11:25
if you set it to say one it's by gonna
00:11:27
give you a few more signals the I prefer
00:11:29
twenty five and fifty that's me but
00:11:31
again you got to decide on what the
00:11:33
increase in Delta that you want to be
00:11:36
you see it's it's not giving that many
00:11:39
more signals but it's giving a few more
00:11:41
signals you know and again you know with
00:11:48
more signals you gotta realize there's
00:11:50
gonna be more trades you know some
00:11:53
people like to have a lot of trades so I
00:11:55
suggest you set it to the minimum so you
00:11:59
know again yeah anyway it's a free
00:12:00
indicator go to order flows calm / Delta
00:12:04
surge that HTML you don't have to send
00:12:06
me your machine ID nothing you just you
00:12:09
just install it as you would any other
00:12:10
ninja script add-on and you know just
00:12:14
make sure you got tick replay enabled
00:12:16
and you know go from there
00:12:19
right and just make sure you know if if
00:12:22
you pull up a chart okay for example all
00:12:25
you know some people scale their charge
00:12:26
differently you know if your chart is
00:12:30
you know a very big chart like this
00:12:34
right and you don't see anything you
00:12:36
know scroll to the left look look in the
00:12:39
past I see yeah I just have it scrunched
00:12:42
up so you can see things a lot clearer
00:12:45
but you see you got some nice little
00:12:48
moves here and here you know again some
00:13:00
nice moves and this is in the you know
00:13:04
if you trade around the clock you can
00:13:06
see there's opportunities in the evening
00:13:08
session as well as well as the day
00:13:09
session so anyway guys I'll end it there
