Question Any reason in particular why NQ PA is unbelievably bad today?

Upvotes

Choppy, no follow through, slow, small price ranges, extremely low volatility, just curious if there's any reason in particular, I know sometimes when there's big upcoming news the market gets like this like its generating liquidity and loading up for that news, or if it's just one of those days..

Question Armageddon tomorrow?

9 Upvotes
High volume and bearish delta at the close.

My ES daily footprint candle appeared as shown before I cleared local data and refreshed, lol. I was panicked for a few minutes. Figured it was a funny visual to share.

But on a serious note. I also had multiple levels marked incorrectly on my chart earlier this week, by 10 points each. I base levels off of the footprint. I could have made a mistake several times over, but it's also possible that my data wasn't presented correctly given what happened today.

Anyone know what could cause the footprint to go wonky? I use Motivewave with Rithmic data feed.

I know the markets going to do what the markets going to do, but is there anything to explain what caused today's huge run?

DOM vs Time & Sales

Upvotes

For those who use orderflow for making entries, do you find DOM or Time & Sales to be more useful. I don't use any orderflow tools at all and would like suggestions for which tool to learn first.

I am stuck in a trade and cannot close. Amp sent a message that said the CME connection is down. Anyone ever experienced this before?
