HOW TO USE THE BIG TRADES INDICATOR

We do not know in advance whether a position is opened or closed by a major trader. We have a specific price range where a significant initiative trade is recorded. To understand what the 'Smart Money' intended, additional data must be gathered.

1️⃣ Look at how many price levels Big Trades has absorbed. If there are several (from 2 to 20+ for different tools), it seems that the large trade did not encounter significant limit resistanceβ€”icebergs or other means of holding the price were not encountered throughout the range.

2️⃣ Check if there was a significant limit volume on the specified segment. The Dom Levels indicator can help here β€” it records areas with significant limit volume on the chart. If the large trade was stopped by limit resistance, the opposing side is present.

3️⃣ Note where the price went after the appearance of the large trade. If it moves in the direction of the trade, there is no opposition. If the price goes into a counter-trend phase, perhaps the large trade fell into a trap. There are many of them in the market!

4️⃣ If your broker provides open interest data, check its valueβ€”whether it increased or decreased. This will help distinguish between opening and closing positions for large trades.

HIDING THE FIRST FOOTPRINT
You can hide the first footprint with a little trick:
πŸ‘‰ Go to the menu and activate the cluster chart by right-clicking the chart.
πŸ‘‰ Go to Settings and click the Cluster Settings tab.
πŸ‘‰ Click the Bid color, choose More Colors, and use the color picker to select the color of the background.
πŸ‘‰ Do the same for the Ask color.
πŸ‘‰ Make the numbers transparent. Select the transparent color and do the same for the Maximum Level.

Now, you can scroll back and click on Additional Footprint to activate it. Select Delta, then Positive/Negative Delta profile and Solid. Instead of the white Maximum Volume color, you will go for the yellow one.

As a result, you will have the hidden footprint β„–1 and activated footprint β„–2. You’ll see the Maximum Volume color painted in yellow.

4 USEFUL FEATURES OF THE BIG TRADES INDICATOR

The features of the Big Trades indicator lie in its method of interpreting large volumes on the chart. In the illustrations for this post, we will demonstrate four ways to interpret it. The described logic applies to other instruments/timeframes.

1️⃣ A large sell trade absorbs several price levels and moves the price in its direction, increasing open interest.
☝️ Conclusion: A large seller anticipates a price decline and opens a position. Trading in the direction of a major trader is likely to be profitable.

2️⃣ A major trader opens a long position, does not move the price in their direction, or moves it insignificantly, but the trend develops in the opposite direction.
☝️ Conclusion: The buyer does not control the price and incurs losses; the trend will develop against the buyer. It is advisable to open a position against the direction of the major trader.

3️⃣ In an uptrend, a large buy trade absorbs limit volume, reducing open interest, and the price continues to move.
☝️ Conclusion: A large seller against the trend expects the movement to continue and cuts losses by buying when a sufficient volume of a limit seller appears. The situation is uncertain; it is advisable to refrain from opening trades until the trend is confirmed.

4️⃣ A large sell trade absorbs several price levels; when testing the seller's level, the price bounces off, and the seller holds positions.
☝️ Conclusion: A large seller expects the price to continue to decline. It is advisable to open trades in the direction of the major trader when testing the seller's level.

HOW TO INTERPRET DELTA INDICATORS

To understand the patterns of the Delta indicator, one must apply the principle of effort and result. Exchange traders want to be rewarded for their efforts. They expect that a large number of market buys will lead to an increase in price. Conversely, a large number of market sells are expected to lead to a decrease in price.

However, it is not all that simple. There are situations where the price rises with a negative delta and falls with a positive one. The key is to pay attention to the relationship between the effort expended (Delta indicator) and the result obtained (price progress).

In ATAS, there are many ways to use delta:
πŸ‘‰ the delta indicator shows the difference between market buys and sells for each bar;
the cumulative delta shows the accumulated delta over a specific period;
πŸ‘‰ delta serves as the basis for calculating various indicatorsβ€”for example, Cluster Search will look for clusters with specified delta values;
πŸ‘‰ visualization of charts with delta settings. In such charts, each new bar is formed when the delta reaches a specified value;
πŸ‘‰ display modes of footprint charts in the form of delta. In these clusters, traders will see delta data at each price level.

In the illustrations for this post, we will explore three ways to interpret delta patterns.

HOW TO SET UP THE FOLLOWING MANAGER IN 5 SIMPLE STEPS
1️⃣ Create the copy group.
The Provider is the master account where you can open and close trades. The Follower account is the slave account where the trades will be mirrored.

2️⃣ Choose the account where you are going to open the trades. In the Settings, you can either mirror the positions or orders:
πŸ‘‰ When you mirror the Positions, the position at the Followers' account will be opened right after opening the position at the Provider account through market order.
πŸ‘‰ And with Orders, as soon as you place an order at the Provider account, it will be immediately mirrored to the Followers' account as a waiting limit order.

3️⃣ Click on "Choose an account" in the Followers.

4️⃣ Set the Ratio:
πŸ‘‰ The Ratio 1 means when you open one position at the Provider account, it will open one position at the Follower account.
πŸ‘‰ If you change this to 2, then one position will be transformed into two positions at the demo account.

5️⃣ Just click on Start. You'll see the Provider account is at the upper chart, and the follower account is at the bottom chart.

⚠️ Don't forget to close or stop the Following Manager if you don't want to continue mirroring the trades.

You can also read about the basic principles and settings of the Following Manager in the Knowledge Base. Launch the ATAS platform as soon as possible to try out this convenient instrument!

HOW TO INCREASE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CLUSTER ANALYSIS ON LARGER TIMEFRAMES
It is simple! Use the "scale" function.
β €
The example shows two charts: on the left, the scale is set to 1, and on the right β€” the scale is 10. This allows you to combine levels and volumes traded in them into unified clusters.
β €
The footprint display mode is Delta. As a result, we see a clearer picture of the extreme imbalance of market buyers over market sellers, and vice versa. This imbalance is highlighted in bright red and bright green colors.
β €
🧐 In this example, the scale is set to 10 ticks, but you can experiment and find your own formula for more effective market analysis in ATAS.

4 FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS INDICES THAT OUTPACE THE MARKET

Let's explore four key indices that can be used to assess the state of the U.S. economy and quickly notice changes that the market has not yet reacted to.

1️⃣ ISM (PMI) – a survey of 300 major industrial companies on several key performance indicators:
- New orders
- Production
- Employment
- Deliveries
- Inventories
Report data is updated on the first working day of each month.

2️⃣ ISM (NMI) – the non-manufacturing index for the service sector. It includes:
- Business Activity
- New orders
- Deliveries
- Inventories
It is published twice a month as a preliminary and official report.

3️⃣ UMSCI – a survey of 500 U.S. consumers. This index allows evaluating consumer expectations in the near term and comparing them with actual figures to assess market sentiment more accurately.

4️⃣ Building Permits – applications for housing construction in the U.S. This includes the mortgage market. This indicator can be used to assess trust in the public (consumers) and financial health.

There are several characteristic differences between the ISM (PMI) and NMI indices.
βœ”οΈ In the U.S. economy, the manufacturing index holds a 20% weight, while the non-manufacturing index holds 80%. It is advisable to consider both indices, paying attention to these proportions, as the service sector in the U.S. occupies a more significant place in the economy than the actual production of goods.

βœ”οΈ The non-manufacturing index is less accurate since it is easier to calculate physically produced goods and their circulation in the economy than contracts for services.
