Correct. DOM does not show market orders but does show stop loss orders (stops) which turn in to market orders when at the bid/ask. Btw, here's an example of the Euro futures market moving 20 pips down on 6k of volume, then 20 pips up with only 3k. ...

Looks like a quiet week though with no big data coming out on Aud/Jpy/Cny. Nzd has trade balance and ANZ business confidence tomorrow which are important so expect Nzd to lead the pack.

Volatility is one of the results of low liquidity as when important economic data is about to be released, but I don't think all volatility is a result of an illiquid market. Finding Forex volume based on a price chart isn't possible in this market ...

Order Flow - Achieving the mindset

When trading large orders that will move price, its best not to move the market much so you can still get good pricing. A cluster of opposing orders can do that.

Yes, market orders move price. Its paying for immediacy. Ex: If the bid/ask on EU is 1.3114/1.3116, you may have buy limit at 1.3114 but say the Fed announced that it's going to be increasing QE, you need to get in that buy trade now (immediacy). ...

EURUSD... what did I do wrong in my trade?

It just made a weekly low an hour ago so you're good if you held on. If not, you got shook. If you're a trader with a retail broker in an OTC market, you're going to sell at the low and buy at the high. This is a very volatile week in the markets. ...

Definate bearishness until the next FOMC 'meeting'. IMO We haven't seen the 2013 low yet which could even be after a late Fed easing if its not until early '14. Short the paper market, buy the physical.

If you filtered then you would read FF in one day and be gone. lol There are some 'must read' or 'valuable' threads going on. Trade Explorer filter may be too erratic as most real traders don't care to share that.
