5 Order Flow Trading Strategies You Must Try In 2016

New traders will often hear of Banks & institutions in the markets, active at certain levels, and indeed will often see the huge moves created by their activity, but alas are sadly unable to gauge where these players are entering the market, and even less able to gauge how to benefit from these constant streams of liquidity.

We at Littlefish have developed an indicator which tracks the flow and volume of Banks & institutions in the markets and generates signals offering the opportunity to align with these directional flows. As with all great indicators, the indicator is most profitable when used as part of a solid trading strategy that seeks to identify potential market entries and then uses the Order Flow Trader as a powerful confirmation tool.

Read on as we run down the five Order Flow Trading Strategies you need to try right now!

1.ORDER FLOW WITH COT

What Is It?

• Making the absolute most of available market information, this strategy is an incredibly powerful way to trade in line with the big fish in Forex. Our COT indicator automatically pulls the data from the weekly COT report to display the positioning of the main market participants directly on your charts, giving you the broader directional bias of Banks and institutions. Order Flow trader then tracks the flow and volume of their activity to give specific entries in line with their directional bias.

2.MULTI-TIMEFRAME ORDER FLOW


What Is It?
