DOM games

Recommended Posts

Here's an old thread on ET that some might be interested in. Take a look at Cazza La Randa's post on page 266. Link: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=76297&perpage=6&highlight=using%20dom&pagenumber=266

 

I need pictures and this makes sense to me. This would be much easier on the YM or ER2 DOM's though in my opinion. The ES is so thick that I'm not sure how many you would want to see at a level to consider it big. Seeing 600+ at ONE level on the ER2 (see ET thread) stands out big time.

 

I would be interested to see this is action in real-time. I've yet to find anything that explains it in real-time. Right now curiosity has the best of me. The only thing I have found from a different thread on ET, is mention of http://www.viperspeedtrader.com/. I have no desire to dive into a brand new thing, but for anyone interested, there's some stuff out there.

 

I have never used viperspeedtrader.com, so please do your own due diligence before purchasing anything.

Its interesting they mention Ninja on that site. I've been poking around with the demo and it really seems like it will become a powerhouse in the future. For programming they have just extended C# for trading so you have all the C# learning resources available to learn. It said on the forum they will be opening up access to the super DOM, once that happens Ninja would seem like the logical choice for this kind of analysis. Certainly would be much easier than neoticker or that crazy guy in the elite thread that rolled his own with open source java charts.

Allow me to play devil's advocate with myself - I would also suggest that with the amount of games being played on the DOM, you do the OPPOSITE of what the dom is 'telling' you.

 

Again, just an idea here, so do your own homework. It just seems in the limited times that I've noticed the bids or asks heavily outweighing each other that price will move AWAY from these potential large bids/asks. Part of the reason is that many of them end up getting pulled before any possible realization of being filled.

 

So think about it... if you had the ability to trade large amounts of contracts and could play these little games, you could easily manipulate how people read and react to them by putting on and pulling your offers quickly.

 

One reason why I like this idea over trying to read the real bids/asks vs. fakes is that more often than not, when you are going off the dom and with the large bids/asks, you are going against the short term trend. Doing the opposite of these puts you in with the current intermediate trend some of the time.

 

Just some food for thought. ;)

Here is what I do on EuroStoxx to find out if there are good or fake BIDs/ASKs on depth I use Depth with Tape. I take in consideration only inside quote, I don't pay much attention beyond them, or already proved good BID/ASK a few minutes ago if the price is continue to stay in short-term box (usually 2-5 ticks on Stoxx). Lets say we want to see if it is a good 1000 bids at particular price, if there is big selling pressure (many sales with good volume) on this price, but bids are still there, didnt decrease dramatically in size, the people add new bids in place of already filled, the bids are real, and they support market very well (the tape is all red but we move nowhere) and the price could go upward a little after this, usually it takes several times to get through these bids. Fake Bid or Ask dont show up on inside quote if the pressure is in their way.

Can somebody explain with clarity why does price gravitate towards size and does this unfold on a consistent basis, if so than surely it is the making of a holy grail;)

It does not gravitate towards a big BID/ASK. Ive seen just as many times it run away from a big BID/ASK. Its not that easy.

Have you noticed, tho, that when there is a huge amount of offer-side pressure in the dom that often times it's taken out and then price ramps up? That just happened....must've been 15k cars sitting in the top 4 slots on the offer and then they vanished. Price was at 51.25 and right when those all vanished price jumped to 52.50 within 2 minutes. Now, it's not a HUUUUGE jump in price, but still, 5 ticks can make ya some ka-ching.

 

Thats what I mean exactly. Pulled.

Ok after one month let us know how it went. Seems like I read somewhere that you should buy the basic course first before doing the webinar???? You might want to look into that.

    • Date: 26th November 2024. Trump’s tariff threats boosted Dollar; Peso, Loonie, Gold & Oil Lower. The Trump trade picked up steam as investors cheered his pick for Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent. Beliefs he will be a steadying voice in the administration’s fiscal measures, while still following President-elect Trump’s tariff and tax commitments, underpinned. Asia & European Sessions:   Trump threatened on Monday to impose sweeping new tariffs on China, Canada and Mexico on his first day as US President to crack down on illegal immigration and drugs. He would impose a 25% tax on all products entering the country from Canada and Mexico, and an additional 10% tariff on goods from China as one of his first acts as president of the US. Bessent’s 3-3-3 plan aims to cut the deficit to 3% of GDP, boost growth to 3%, and increase oil production to 3 mln barrels. Treasury yields dove in a curve flattener, extending their drops through the session, on expectations inflation will decelerate. A strong 2-year auction also supported. The Dow led the charge, climbing 0.99% to 44,736, a new record peak as the rally broadens. The S&P500 climbed to 6020, a session peak, but finished with a 0.3% gain to 5987. The NASDAQ closed 0.27% higher. Today, stock markets in Europe are posting broad losses, with the DAX down -0.6%, the FTSE 100 0.4%, after a largely weaker close across Asia. ECB: Lane suggests ECB must be open-minded on speed of rate cuts. The ECB’s Chief Economist said in a speech on Monday evening that “remaining open-minded about the speed and scale of adjustments is in fact a valuable strategy across various environments, as different situations may necessitate distinct approaches.” This careful, step-by-step strategy enables us to observe the responses of the economy to our decisions and continuously refine our understanding of their impacts.” The comments leave the door open to a 50 bp move in December, but also tie in with our expectation that the central bank will deliver a 25 bp while tweaking the forward guidance and commit to additional moves. Financial Markets Performance: The USDIndex hit a session high of 107.50 and is currently lower at 106.85. Mexican peso and Canadian dollar slumped as the dollar is being viewed as a haven after the comments of President-elect Donald Trump on tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China. USDCAD spiked to 1.4177 and USDMXN rallied to 20.74. Oil and Gold lost ground, in part on cooling geopolitical risks, and on Trump trades. Oil dropped -3.03% to $69.09 per barrel, in part on the Trump trade and on talk of a potential cease fire between Israel and Hezbollah. Similarly, gold fell -3.26% to $2605 per ounce.
