THis is ABSOLUTELY true. I had been everywhere. 20% of this stuff is usefull. What is left which is 80% - garbage. Everyone talks - no one shows. I did that i did this. SHOW TODAY. Not interested in what was and were. SHOW NOW. If you cant - no talking. Just keep silence
80% of info ARE USELESS
I can tell you how to build a rocket. I have doubts you will build it frome the 1 attempt. Even with clear instructions

@Ali1440 It might look like bloom is understand the topic of OF but you need to ask yourself a question. If someone can not explain the topic in simple terms would that person understand it very well or not or it might be just his/her ego is kicking in? There are many ppl in this forum who can response to your questions. It would be better if you create a new thread and start covering your questions in it. I am sure you will find ppl who will drop in and make their comments that might help you to clarify the things. Keep in mind anything and everything can be taught it is just the way information is presented to you.

Yea. You 100% correct man. Go and search somewhere else. I do not know a thing about OF. I am just a talking nothing. Loser who thinks too much about hes ability to read OF. You will not find here an answer.

Bloom there is nothing to be upset about. I just stated the fact. If someone can't explain a complex thing in a simple terms than perhaps it is not enough understanding going on. This is a well know fact.

Now you clarify thing out by saying that
Quoting 
DO I WANT to explain complicated things? DO i want to make traders beleave they understand it and after that lose their hard owned money? I a pretty sure you ok with that but not me"
DO i want to explain things knowing that your kind of peoples UNGR8FULL for what have been done come and start to occuse? No way. And i see that i am correct about this.

The guy is trying to get to the bottom of the topic and making an afford to understand it. This is why he is here and asking you questions and hopping to get a straight answers and not about how hard it is to learn it.

This is exactly what I was referring to
Quoting 
In both cases no one WANTED to share this and explain to everyone.

. I wonder what we need to do in this threat to deserve the explanation.

So you free to go man. No reason to waste your time on me. By the way. is that quote you told has some Racist or Nacionalist meaning?

Dont waste your time with your nationalism here. iT is international resource.
What you need to do to deserve? To put some effors in to. TO show what you have done ))) I asked this along time ago. I am asking this now too. If it is hard for you to do something on your own, than why i must to do something for you? What you telling about Russians are 100% only ABOUT THOSE who like you. Coming asking - heaven done anything.
If you havent done anything and asking to explain - you just thinking that everyone owes you. DOnt try to reverse things and tell that one nation is better than the other. THis makes you look like not good.
Wish you luck with your mindset.

You know guys. I spent 8 years here. Trying few times to start some sort of community. Placed some value here. Answered question as i could and so. And than comes this person and saying such things about Russians that we think everyone ows us something.
I havent asked anyone to do a job for me. I was doing it my own way and sharing it. ALl those years. And look at him. Saying me that Russians are thinking everyone ows to them.
It is sad that this forum becoming like this. Nationalist shit.
I have many USA friends. They sharing with me so much. No one of them can tell that i am this way like this guy saying. Moreover than can say quite the opposite.
OF is a hard to learn because of too much info. You need so much time to understand what is infuencing what. It is cant be explained in a simple terms. And it is cant be explained with words. Because for what it was it is not what it is now.
Many traders were helping me - we were working with each other. FOr 8 years i havent saw in big numbers of folks are willing to grasp the order flow. Show us - tell us
What you done to proove that i need to explain you? Nothing/ Ok Than i will not explain. Or you Russians all that way.
Ok man. What i can tell - NOT ALL US OR BRITISH THE WAY YOU ARE. Thanks to GOD

all i will tell....is bloom over the years gave stuff freely. i see hardly anyone doing it

order flow is not easy....why should someone give it away. I know atleast someone here from fio who is on my stream. he can atteast to what we play....we not playing ticks....lol....ticks r for p**** lol.....i wont say the word.

i for one will never give it away...i can point to the correct direction...but wont give it away. Reason is i have told u clearly...i see many doing video///webinar...including maker/developers of OF.....but they cannot do what many others can. it is evident.

so my only thinking is....if someone is willing to show a very complex methodology.....why not take it. if u still do not like it...move on. let someone else who may want it get it.

Not asking you to give anything away, but I saw you mention excel in the past (as well as gom) in another thread. Could one begin the journey working with a simple DOM and dissecting with a spreadsheet (good data feed too of course) in order to start building a better picture of Order Flow over time?

I don't even have a DOM currently, there's a bit of inertia since I'm learning so much on just a naked bar chart and basic platform, I feel I haven't even scratched the surface of that yet, but Jigsaw is really not that expensive, for one example.

Also wanted to say thanks to @bloom, I'll start reading your journal.

NO.
Just DOM alone is a disaster. Market at least has 2 stages. High hype - open and close. Low hype - launch and flat
DOM patterns woking so so in a launch flat market.
Moreover. DOM patterns are the smallest thing in OF - and this is ENTERING stuff.
In order to trade you need to master few more skills where DOM patterns is a final skill in order to have a smaller entry risk.

I see, I am just unfamiliar with the order-flow tools, I assume these skills are the types of things I've been working on (but not in an order-flow specific manner), ie, determining type of opening, day, who's in control, that sort of thing? I apologize if you meant skills more specific to order-flow than these i listed. I am just trying to understand
