Wow, this interface is very cool, very useful to explain how markets/pricing work ! Maybe (probably) it's some pretty standard way of displaying things but I had never seen one like this.

  It's a fairly standard order book view, with a nice log of trades on the right hand side. For most real exchanges (eg ones trading shares or commodities), this view would be impossible without some kind of downsampling as there would be too many trades/sec to display in real time. Your monitor probably isn't fast enough, let alone your browser rendering stack.

    Oh the log is cool but I was more specifically referring to the order book with the spread, and the "green on the left, red on the right" view in the middle that shows the market. I would like to see such a view for regular stock markets but I don't know where to go. The stock exchange interface of my bank, for example, is far from showing such a nice thing, only a bare order book with only a few lines.

      I found TradingView to be very good. I.e. https://www.tradingview.com/chart/?symbol=BITSTAMP:BTCUSD https://www.tradingview.com/chart/?symbol=BITSTAMP:BTCUSD They also have regular stock symbols.

      It's sometimes called "level 2", stock markets do charge fees for access to the feeds - at least the LSE did when I worked on a site that showed the information :)

  I've been using https://ohmyco.in https://ohmyco.in for the last couple of months. It's got order books and charts for quite a few coins and exchanges, which makes it easier to see if there's a market-wide trend or just one coin/exchange fluctuating.

Interesting. The pattern from the 9:30-10:15 range (EST) is a classic Ross Hook 1-2-3 (low) setup [1]. [1] https://oxfordstrat.com/trading-strategies/ross-hook-1/ https://oxfordstrat.com/trading-strategies/ross-hook-1/

  I'll bite, because I could use more insight. As far as I can tell, he references daily bars—to see the effect that you referenced, I had to reduce the bars to ~ 3 - 15 minutes. Otherwise, the pattern looks quite the opposite to me. Am I missing something? If not, could something like that somewhat reasonably be applied to trading at that time scale? Seems like a good way to never get any sleep!

    I just tend to recognize the patterns in any timeframe. They're everywhere. If I were a day trader, that was a trade I would have taken, but I don't have the patience to sit and stare at the screen like that all day.
