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.

16 stops where hit @ 1019.....Next level as per the rules of this thread is 1017.25, then up too 1023.25

Does anyone know where I can view more than 10 tick levels on the ES for working stops?? I can view 25 in the TF, but only 10 on the ES....I would like to see at least 25 levels.


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.

maybe the jtrealstats script at ninja trader is best suited for what you're looking for

I have hard targets, BUT 99% of the time price goes thru .. so imo it is the stop "they" are looking for .. this just happened in 6e as I type this

does anyone have any info on how to use jtRealStats
