easy · Order Flow Analysis footprint-delta
When reading a footprint bar diagonally, a trader compares the bid volume at 1.1245 (53 contracts) to the ask volume at 1.1246 (13 contracts).
What does this ratio (4.1:1) suggest about that specific market state?
- The market is in equilibrium because the total volume at both levels is relatively low.
- A buying imbalance is forming because price is trying to move toward 1.1246.
- Aggressive buyers are in control because more total volume traded at the higher price.
- Aggressive sellers are dominant, as the volume hit into the bid significantly outweighs the volume lifted from the offer.
