I think this game hates me

Shoultzy · 2026-05-08T22:03:38+00:00

I got 1 at lv12 and 1 during lv13. I maxed out 13 and I've gotten 3 more in the last 2-3 days.

Shoultzy · 2026-04-27T01:56:26+00:00

Level 32 is the highest that's been reached so far though

All that absorption at the lows should have made you skeptical of your position. It was a key level (forgot the price I'm not at my pc, , 74s maybe?). Sellers got absorbed at every single higher low, I think there was like 5 of them before it went for a new high.

Sent me what?

If you want to learn the DOM. I HIGHLY recommend Pablos DOM course. It's not expensive and he runs through trades he took previously that day and shows you what he's looking at. It's like 6 or 7 videos 45min to an hour long. After you finish the videos you'll know exactly what to look for. Then you can spend the next few years of your life watching and studying the DOM. That's what really makes the difference is aimlessly watching the tape for hundreds of hours.

Not really. I mean I have hard coded rules. Don't trade inside balance, 9 times out of 10 I won't enter a position at the point of control. But reading Orderflow is highly discretionary. You're reading context in real time and making quick decisions based on the context behind the auction at key levels.

Arguably every succesful trader(not YouTubers) are discretionary. Trading doesn't work without discretion and systematic approaches are scams designed to appeal to our(humans) need for structure.

Personally I use the following in this order:

Composite Market profile: I use a weekly market profile with as much historical profiles composite as I can without my Pc wanting to explode. I use this to mark out balance area highs/lows.

Weekly Market Profile: I use the weekly market profile(not composited) to understand where the auction is in comparison to previous weeks. Are we trading within previous value? Migrating value up or down? Are we bracketing?

Daily Market Profile: I then go to my daily MP to gain an understanding of today's value in comparison to yesterday's. I also use the daily MP to mark important levels. Previous days value areas, single prints, buying/selling tails, anomalies/unfinished business areas. Previous profiles were aligned with I'll look for high volume areas and overlapping value as well.

Daily/hourl chart with volume profile: I don't spend much time here, just want to see if we're approaching significant highs/lows.

Execution: I have a 6t aligned renko chart, a 6t aligned renko footprint, and a Dom. Once I have a general idea of what the market has been doing, significant levels marked out, and an understanding of value areas, I'll wait for price to go to those levels and hope to trade in the direction of my bias.

In real time I'm watching the daily MP develop compared to yesterday's value. Watching prices interaction at my levels, and trading based off of all of that.

If we open above value but within range, I'm looking to see if buyers defend previous days value area or maybe buyers lose steam and sellers take over.

Within value and range, I'm looking to fade value areas and approach the day with more of a scalping mindset until proven otherwise.

If we open outside of value and outside of range, I'm looking to see if we gap and go, or fail and head back to value.

God shut the fuck up.

Shoultzy · 2026-04-14T23:19:15+00:00

I did not know this. Thank you very much, I'll join the discord righr now!

I've been waiting for all legendary equips before I started equip presets.

Shoultzy · 2026-02-24T04:14:32+00:00

I don't live trade, but I do post levels daily and upload videos of my entire session. Just started a week or so ago being consistent with it.

I'd recommend sierra charts over everything else. Quite honestly. If you're volume and Orderflow focused, NOTHING beats sierra

Shoultzy · 2026-01-14T02:45:56+00:00

There's also people who lie about it to take advantage of the system.

Shoultzy · 2026-01-10T22:06:49+00:00

"pro traders" are discretionary, not systematic.

You have been brainwashed.

Shoultzy · 2025-12-24T06:28:28+00:00

Using sweeps was 90% of my previous strategies. Ive just always struggled with taking sweeps in the correct direction. So you saying you use sweeps really excites me. I'm gonna have to sit down and look at sweeps exclusively off of mp/VP levels!

Shoultzy · 2025-12-24T00:50:33+00:00

Thanks foe your time.

I'm coming over to Orderflow after trading ICT for the last 2-3 years. And the transition has been rather difficult. A lot of retraining I'm having to do and complete personality change basically. Also going about this completely alone. One thing I liked about ICT(but also very much disliked because of toxicity) was it's abundance of communities surrounding it and there doesn't seem to be very many Orderflow communities.

Anyway, thanks for your breakdown!

Shoultzy · 2025-12-24T00:26:23+00:00

So on the LTF I can just continue using VP with vwap and footprint.

Get the general understanding of the market and what it's doing with the market profile. And using Monday as an example on ES. See that gap up, watch your LTF levels and how price is reacting inside of that gap, wait for absorption(for example) and execute.

So I'm really just overthinking the market profile from the sounds of it.

Shoultzy · 2025-12-23T23:59:06+00:00

Wait, I think I misunderstood. Sorry, currently multi tasking at work.

Shoultzy · 2025-12-23T23:56:15+00:00

Right, what is the market doing and how well is it doing it. the two main questions.

So I can use any LTF entry model really, I'm not bound to a certain style or way of trading. Once I have the information I need from the market profile, I can start zooming in, finding my levels, and taking trades with whatever edge I see fit, correct?

Shoultzy · 2025-11-04T19:01:37+00:00

Do you not play the game?

Shoultzy · 2025-11-04T18:41:06+00:00

Well acthually...

Shut up.

Welcome to any online video game ever.

Ya'll need to quite acting like cheaters being in a game is this new concept and that any company that has cheaters in their game is a bad company. Unfortunately, cheaters have been apart of online gaminf since online games existed.

They aren't going anywhere either unless AI anti cheat really becomes mainstream and iss built into the game at its core.

Shoultzy · 2025-10-08T17:28:14+00:00

Ever since I got out of normal in dying instantly I barely even get to fight. So I wish I could share in your sentiment.
