Back filling the details that led to the decisions this week.
— Using this last article to display how effective ‘widening your timeframe’ can be.
While many were saying to sell the Highs, I said the Highs keep going. I put my thoughts into the universe and told the people of X that I was bullish, that I was buying, and where I’m stopped.
Sequence I
Referencing [004] above, utilizing Support that was formed off this sessions’ tape to help guide my decisions forward. I shared the exact area that structure should support, and that produced alone 15470 → 15950 intraweek!
+500p shared and directed off a single plan.
The reality of why I was actively bidding these Highs is simply continuation of this auction. I understand the positioning in this new distribution, and at the time — the auction probably wasn’t going to change (would require a lot more activity). If the auction were to change, sellers would be able to take over and secure the 15830 area from above and then we can begin auctioning lower.
Sequence II
Again, these areas have been established off the plan shared ahead of time. This is simply how I markup my chart. Now the plan called for 15660 Pivot but it was traded during Headlines. This Auction-Initiation did three things :
Proved Buyers won the auction lower — 15450
Proved Buyers won the compass pivot of the area — 15660
Proved Buyers won the area above the pivot — 15730
I would come to the conclusion that it is still a strong auction.
The first taste of RTH Opens at my Area of Interest. It would have ‘blindly’ been seen as Resistance, but the tape clearly showed that this area would quickly be taken over by Buyers. This was proven true the very same session as the Market retests this area and closes at Highs. This continues to Gap Up & Spike higher the following session.
These are FP references side-by-side comparing the activity within my Auction Low. When combining the structural context / intraday (11/14) context / orderflow; It guided me to continue the same plan SetFeed has been doing for weeks. Buy Dips.
The window to sell structure like this will be an easy one. There will be plenty of reward. I would rather ride the trend and lose-lose before I even have ideas of flipping. The alternative; Fight the trend that hasn’t stopped since our NQ 14450.
Sequence III
Early in the session of 11/15, we corrected our Plan as we saw sellers step into the Auction (red) High. This confirmed the validity of my auction and thus we began carving out the distribution at Gapped Highs 15830 vs 15950.
A perfectly defined Balance Distribution.
Profile references formed in our defined areas given ahead of time.
Nuances such as 15810 Bid and 15880 Auction Pivot shared in real time.
One level became the Weekly Low
The other became the most traded Pivot of the week
Conditions : Balance
Execution : Fade the Edges
Nuance : Wider Timeframe
Target : Other End of Balance : 15930 // +130p
Extension : Break of Balance
For those who study Market Profile / Volume Profile. Understanding this auction should be a simple one if viewed with a neutral outlook. This is a staple framework.
Balance:
Fade the edges of a distribution and targeting Point of Control
Extension : the other end of balance
If accepted : check break of balance
If rejected : balance continues
The longer the balance, the more difficult it is to break

Now there’s a lot of babble going on about what I share. The reality is I have committed to RTH Plans as they come. That is it. They caught every session Low this week. Surely you can’t be THAT greedy…
These articles are simply examples of ‘What I CAN Provide’. So please sir, don’t come at me with the expectation that you’re OWED anything.
The Market is always my priority. Sharing my plans is my promise.
Everything else is a bonus. Why do people insist on demanding more? Wild.
I’m the sole Orderflow player conducting intraday ideas consistently, and I also point to exact areas + context to why I make these decisions. That should offer immense learning points for anyone that’s putting in effort. You do the work, the reward comes.
This was not available when I learned how to trade. No one was willing to share their insight on the market. No one taught me what a DOM was. I share all this and more but know that I will be sharing it at the pace / and with the engagement I want to.
For example : I am willing to produce and tailor a FootPrint Guide for all of you!
Only the low-low cost of +1000 subscribers, If there is demand, it shall be made.
Teaching others the things I’ve learned along the way...
This was the goal at 5,000 Followers, this continues to be the goal at 20,000.
There has been hours of content created and shared on Twitter / YouTube. This is the next chapter of creating the most up-to-date modern day reference of Orderflow.
I’ve put in years of committed / focused effort into this craft. I am now attempting to push my understanding and share with others. Why do you think you’re going to solve it in 1 week? Patience.
You are very much appreciated. Thanks for sharing what you do.
Great stuff, I like how clear and concise the writing is and the way you break things into sections.
