HFT Volume

HFT (High-Frequency Trading) - this is what we called the algorithm, which allows you to calculate transactions in the market, the speed of which is from 1 millisecond. The indicator gives us the opportunity to see where the large positions are being recruited or absorbed by institutional and market maker robots.

From a practical point of view, this indicator also finds the points in the market where there is the largest concentration of buyers and sellers in a very short period of time. Such moments often show us the prices at which there is a "carrying out" of stop-loss orders or a fast entry of a position by a large player.

Example 1: S&P 500 instrument, minimum tick = 300 contracts, period 3 seconds, total volume 1900 contracts. The terminal will automatically make a selection of tick chains with a minimum print of 300 contracts and a total volume of 1900 contracts that have passed in an interval of less than 3 seconds and display them on the chart. This filter helps to find the important volume and display its structure, including how many buy contracts were purchased by market orders and how many were sold. This will help identify key points on the price chart.

Example 2: instrument Gold, minimum tick = 25 contracts, period 3 seconds, total volume 500 contracts. In this example, trades are displayed that are more like stop orders triggered, followed by a market reversal.
