Gunning for stops


Something I was reading the other day got me thinking. Since most newbie's get stopped out 8-10 out of ten maybe one should try and guess what direction the most stops are in and in what direction because.......As I begin to dig deeper, I found out that some instatutional traders (+100 cons traders) are doing the same thing. In essence gunning for newbie traders stop.

I am roughly looking for 2 peaks on the ES at the same tick a few min apart and a nice valley low or peak.


Here was the only one I saw today.....

This is discretionary, as you still have to decide where to enter.

What I found out on the TF, shocked me I expected to see resting orders on previous highs/lows, dbl tops/bottoms, but didn't....



do you mean something like this?

gio,

Yes thats something I need....I am looking for it to add all the levels together first 5, 10, and 25. Ever notice how the ES moves towards the most orders of the first 5 orders??
Joe, if u are looking at the 10 levels of the order book, those are limit orders not stop orders.
