medium · Order Flow Analysis order-book-dom

A commercial end-user needs to buy 3000 contracts of Corn (ZC). They use an iceberg at 367.50 showing 40 lots at a time.

What will an order flow trader see in the footprint over several bars if the price holds 367.50?

  1. Anomalously high bid volume (e.g., 400+ per bar) at 367.50 despite small displayed size.
  2. A Single-Print low forms, showing the institutional buyer finished their order.
  3. A series of selling imbalances appear at 367.50 that repeatedly fail to push price lower.
  4. Remarkably low bid volume appears at 367.50 as the institution works hard to hide its presence.
