In ES, price is approaching the overnight low of $4,505.00. A large iceberg bid is detected: 600 contracts trade at the bid price of $4,505.00 while the visible bid quantity never exceeds $50.

How should an order flow trader react?

  1. Wait for the iceberg to be 'taken out' before entering in the direction of the break.
  2. Enter short because 600 contracts of selling hitting the bid shows aggressive bearishness.
  3. Ignore the level because the 'displayed' volume is too small to be institutional.
  4. Enter long with a stop below $4,505.00, as an institution is using the overnight low to accumulate a large position.
