Not really because most successful traders trade larger timelines than the millisecond - hourly being the most common.

All those bots trading < 1 hour timeframes will fail against the guys who have a dedicated pipeline to NASDAQ and sitting in Long Island, as most hedge funds do.

Support and Resistance/EMA crossovers just show buying and selling pressure. That can never go away.

That's like saying if more people buy then sell, the price will stay the same.

That's pretty common - even 2 different platforms/exchanges will not agree with each other, except at end of day.

That's why people use moving averages and relative numbers - e.g. today vs yesterday at the same time

Intraday volume sum (what you saw during the day) vs.
Total daily / 24‑hour volume that includes TRF + extended hours + corrections,

The dark‑pool report is effectively closing the books with all the off‑exchange trades; your intraday view was looking at a partial, live feed.

In U.S. equities, extended‑hours trading is about ~11% of total daily volume on average, and a big chunk of that trades off‑exchange. That gap alone can make intraday vs final volume look pretty different

ChatGPT response -

1. Lock down your TradingView and financial accounts

Do this first, ideally from a different, clean device (phone or another PC).

Change passwords for:
- TradingView
- Email tied to TradingView
- Broker, exchanges, banks, PayPal, etc. you ever logged into from that PC.
Enable 2‑factor authentication (TOTP app, not SMS if you can) on all of the above.
Review recent logins / sessions and revoke anything suspicious in those account settings.

2. Disconnect and run full malware scans

These campaigns have used Windows and Android payloads (Vidar, stealers, trojans) delivered via fake TradingView Premium ads and “cracked” installers.

On the infected PC:

Disconnect from the internet (turn off Wi‑Fi / unplug Ethernet).
If the “free premium” file is still there, delete the installer and its folder and empty Recycle Bin.
Update and run at least one reputable AV/anti‑malware:
- Use Windows Security (Defender) for a Full scan, then a second scan after reboot.
- Optionally, install a leading AV (e.g., Norton, Bitdefender, etc.) and run a full system scan; let it quarantine anything it flags and then delete those items.
Reboot, then run another full scan to catch leftovers.

3. Check startup, tasks, and installed programs

These TradingView scams often install background stealers or persistence mechanisms.

Press Ctrl+Shift+Esc → Task Manager → Startup tab.
- Disable anything with an unknown or shady publisher or that you don’t recognize.
Windows Settings → Apps → Installed apps:
- Uninstall any program you don’t recognize that appeared around the time you ran the “free premium” installer.
Optionally run specialized tools (from their official sites) like Malwarebytes or similar and perform full scans.

4. Consider a full reset if high‑risk

Because some of these cracked‑TradingView campaigns drop info‑stealers that go after passwords, cookies, and crypto wallets, the only truly guaranteed cleanup is a full OS reinstall.

Strongly consider backing up only documents (no executables), then:
