Make them about how you trade, not how much money you make. 4) Accept responsibility for your actions. Stop looking elsewhere to explain away poor performance. 5) Where to start as a trader?

many have asked. but unfortunately there's isn't much useful information around. just recently I showed a couple of examples, including some links from market delta:
also I have to say, I'm a complete order flow freak. but I also understand it's not for everybody. some even get easily fooled trying to read it
anyway trading with order flow has many advantages. but there're quite a few things you have to pay attention to. so I welcome everything that makes it easier. looks like this auction dashboard could be a candidate.
of course there're still losing trades, but one thing that I really like is many times there's only very little heat with your entries. 1 tick, 2 ticks and 1 tick in the example below. (all trades based on order flow, with help of vwap):

I'm partially duplicating a similar recent post, but if you link to this, I believe it has some good resources to start you off in the world of footprint.
I've also posted some intermittent stuff re footprint patterns and moves that I use, like this one here.
This AuctionDashboard is pretty phenomenal; the fact most everything is exposed and scriptable into a NinjaTrader strategy is quite cool.
