[@leer.watson4673]

I’ve watched dozens of trading videos prior to this one and could never understand what’s making the price move. However, something in my brain just clicked while watching your video and now it ALL makes sense. I’ve been under the impression that ALL market and limit orders had to be filled before the price moved. Thank you for making this video and simplifying how a price changes in the market.

[@hjelbey]

DITTO.... I was thinking the EXACT same way! This video is a God sent!

[@giricharan7379]

I have spent many months on searching a content like this ..finally youtube algo recommended it to me..

[@pampagrimaldi8584]

Man, no one has ever explain this better!! Great work!!!

[@AndioDAndia]

GLORIOUS, man, GLORIOUS!!! Pity it's unlikely for you to read this comment, but let me tell you: I didn't understand how the price moves until now. GLORIOUS!!! Thank you!!! Greetings from Mendoza, Argentina!!!

[@importsfixmedicals.a.s.803]

for that reason saying " more sellers than buyers" or viceversa, is wrong... this is why this confusion comes from... it's better to say "sellers are more INTERESTED than buyers"

[@Mr.Ricky0]

So wait sellers are interested in what actually?

[@FameFortuneFiles]

@@Mr.Ricky0 seller more then buy at key level usually mean price going down

[@Bobbaker007]

This video is absolutely the perfect video on Depth of Market

[@sanjeevsaju1099]

I was searching for this explanation my whole life! At last I got it! Thanks man!

[@CriticalTrading]

Glad my videos helped, good luck in your trading

[@thesaltedbeagles9525]

Finally, I understand. Been learning bookmap and couldn't quite figure it out. This is simply explained, tyvm! Now to figure out how price moves during after-hours, premarket.

[@jesusbvasquezq6597]

Best explanation of DOM I have seen here, simple and direct to the point. Thanks for sharing!

[@MihaiMezel]

I was wandering about this for some time now and I didn't know how to search for "what actually moves the market" and by chance i stumbled upon this, thank you sir

[@Name-dw5vk]

Really great video! Although pricing mechanism is such a foundational topic but many people can’t provide insights of it in detail. Your video went through every single aspects of how price moves in different situations and it was like I stumped into a goldmine. Simple yet detailed. Thank you!

[@CriticalTrading]

Thanks very much your appreciation!

[@jeramykennedy6813]

bought this guys course, I figured if his free content was this good his paid stuff would be impressive, im halfway through it, already applying some of the techniques. I scalp options so its a little different from what he teaches, but the way he uses volume profile is so far better than any indicator weve been lead to believe is good, go buy the course.

[@CriticalTrading]

Hey Jeramy - very delighted to hear that! I will be in touch soon with you to see how you're progressing!

[@teboholenela4268]

Forex is a very serious business thank you so much! i always thought "i only just need a strategy" not knowing that there's more to it than strategy, the fundamental aspects behind the scenes of the movement has just became the most progressive realization. Thank you so much for the clarity

[@jay1232000]

I spent 4 hours on youtube to understand this fundamental. Your video was the one I got all my answers. I wish I saw this earlier and could save 4 hours. Thank you. Liked and subscribed.

[@CriticalTrading]

Thank you, always glad to hear that my videos helped people!

[@jb6278]

OMG!! I've been looking for an explanation and video like this for years and finally!! your channel found me, it must have been the universe rewarding me for my perseverance. Thank you for posting this vital video. It is a must watch for everyone that is trading any market.

[@rgoudie]

This was an awesome explanation. Nowhere else had I seen such an explanation.

[@Heart4KidsNonProfit]

Everyone must start their trading.career with this video . Brilliant!!! Thank you so much.

[@otm777]

Can't get any better than this....THANK YOU! Really explained the risk of using market orders, and how the "Last Price" is just that...the last traded price.

[@GGgaming24190]

Beautiful explanation not gonna lie. Now understand the market better than looking at plain charts and higher highs

[@aaronnicholson8154]

I’ve been trading for three years and never seen this explained so clearly. Thank you.

[@samtradder7590]

Wow! This is such valuable knowledge. Finally understood why price moves, at times quite rapidly and at other times just sits there. Understood slippage as well as price gaps, at last. Great job, David. Thank you kindly.

[@CriticalTrading]

Great to hear that, glad I helped

[@orangemonkeyy1]

This is phenomenal I've looked all over and this detail is what I was looking for

[@arunkumaran2155]

The best video on instantaneous price change in exchange due to market depth I have ever seen... Nicely Explained... Keep up the good work

[@CriticalTrading]

Thanks for the feedback Arun!

[@seanb1081]

As a very "green" trader, I found your video VERY easy to understand. Thank you for this great explanation, on how DoM actually works !

[@skm2809]

The Most Under rated video on YT.

[@velvethamster9809]

One of the most amazing, coherently explained, and crucial information of how market price move videos I’ve seen!

[@testaccount5248]

Great video with in-depth explanation. I just have one question, let's say someone puts a stop order, what stops the exchange from executing that order. Let's say at 3:58 someone puts a sell stop order @97 for 2 units, why doesn't the exchange executes that order since thats a much better price for buyers to buy at and there is a seller willing to sell at that price too or a buy stop order @100 for 3 units, you still get your matching bid and ask in this case too.

[@gamiensrule]

I've been looking for a simple, accurate description of how the price moves for weeks. Thank you!! So if you want to move the price up and break the sell walls you need lots of market orders.

[@rundown666]

Sweet. Thanks for the confirmation. I was rattling me brain over this, but you just helped me clear it up. I always looked at the DOM in completely the opposite way - watching the sell barriers and expecting the price to move down when they were gobbled up.

[@bardacha100]

By far the clearest explanation I've seen on KZbin! Great video

[@peptalkbox6550]

finally someone explain this in real words to clarify this point, thanks

[@marcelogbonna5098]

Bro explain it like a pro definitely recommend it for beginners who wants to learn how the market works👍👍

[@neillaquian6068]

The clarification brought by this video is beyond impressive!

[@dramaworlds6024]

I have watched so many videos...but this one was the perfect one for understanding how the candles stik move up or move down .. Thank you for this great explanation.❤❤

[@btradingwarehouse3861]

...this one is a pure perfection of explaining price action...bravo again...

[@treetoplake]

Totally brilliant explanation .. ive watched it 3 times now and its slowly sinking in. Thank you

[@johnnyegha6665]

The irony: Someone whose first language isn't english, explains the auction theory perfectly to english speakers. Thanks for this very very clear explanation. i understand the auction theory perfectly now!!

[@75hilmar]

Circling this subject from like a ten foot pole far just this morning I wondered what exactly slippage was. And here it is.

[@Jakob_923]

Best Video on how price action is working i've ever seen!!!🔥💪🏼

[@hjelbey]

This video is what I needed... the missing piece to the puzzle of trading at a high level

[@Sheblah1]

This is the best, the clearest explanation I've seen. I now have an actual, proper understanding of the order book! Thank you for this

[@maulajatt5655]

Now that you know how the order book works the main question is how will you make money from it? The order book moves so fast

[@andrewdeakins9945]

didnt understand the matching of passive and agressive traders. great explanation. brilliant.

[@DjRuchirOfficial]

I was always confused that if for every buyer there is a seller and vice versa then what decides the direction of the price. This made it very clear. Great video! 💯💯💯

[@joeybloggs6357]

To the point and crystal clear, excellent explanation.

[@CriticalTrading]

Thanks!

[@isfocreative1544]

sir for amost half year I was searching for a video to understand bid ask and excution of contracts .you explain soooooo easily .i thanku by heart .i would like req make all ur videos for indians too . you may dub in such english pronounciation which could easily be understood by indians.

[@mohamedbilal5634]

The best explanation on Market depth in all of Internet

[@deejay4837]

This is one of the better explanations of the fundamentals of Depth of Market. Not some guru wannabe trying to impress... Anytime there's stick figures you know it's gonna be good!

[@kipedire1]

Best explanation on Depth of Market - true educational video on DOM.THANKS SIR.

[@atihanif2272]

After too many searches i got my point from this video thanks........

[@Hari-tc5dc]

Amazing !!!! I've never seen a video explaining market depth in such a simple manner I never really understood market depth up until now since i am a newbie and i am trying to learn, thank you for posting such a great video.

[@olliehopnoodle4628]

Thank you. Looking at Level 2 I knew what the bid and ask 'was' but didn't know how they got created. I thought it was limit orders. Your video confirms. Very much appreciated.

[@hamedabdullahi5476]

I really appreciate your video helped me to feel the mechanism of the DOM in a better way. Well done!

[@royregis9712]

It is indeed a very good video on how and why price moves - I knew bits already but had very poor explanations from someone who can 'read the tape'. Just goes to show not anyone can be an educator and get their point across with the necessary clarity.

[@devkartik]

Finally got the answer to my question! I can't believe no one ever taught me that!

[@pikiwiki]

10:55 "the price moves in relation to market orders and available limit orders"

[@mrdickguy]

One of the best videos explaining this. One question I still have is if I use market order to buy and there’s a 1 unit limit at higher and lower price. Which price would it go to then? Up or down?

[@CriticalTrading]

Hi Dee, in that case it would simply go to higher price as that's where it would find the limit to be paired with

[@whyamiandy]

Simply amazing! This video was the missing puzzle for me! Thank you so much!!!

[@CriticalTrading]

Thanks for the feedback, glad that my video helped you!

[@andressuarezp]

Best explanation on KZbin

[@DS-gn5vu]

Been looking for this video for ages glad I finally found it again

[@wizzard211]

Great video thanks! Could you please describe from programming point of view what exactly happens. I mean, if people are trading they should all be sure that the soft (the algorithm) will not malfunction. Who ensures that? Who writes the algorithm? Who owns it and why?

[@ale9507]

Absolutely phenomenal video; a bit mind-blowing if I must be honest. Had always wondered what exactly prompted price to move and why liquidity didn't necessarily mean volatility. Thank you very much.

[@CriticalTrading]

Thanks, glad you liked it!

[@irs6345]

So as more sell orders get cleared due to instant market buy orders, would that indicate that there is going to be a rally to the upside as the buy side is becoming more aggressive?

[@paulnyagini]

I have not get your question but Iam assuming you said the instant market buy volume is huge compare to the sell pending order and you want to know which direction will the market go ????? Then the answer is more likely the market markers will take all of the instant buy execution and possibly creat a small slippage to give them price advantage then they will move the price down to execute the sell pending order but that will depend how far those selling are compare to the expected market volatility of the day because if the market markers they don't obey that and the price fast to the sell orders to take the risk off there hands that can creat a spoofing opportunity. So if it happens the orders sell orders are far enough or were not enough to cover the all the instant buy order the market markers will simply blend the entire current volume with the general volume and move the price into there advantage average level which could be up and down at the same time just in a range that doesn't put them at market risk .

[@NI_TURAGARA]

Obviously the more aggressive buyers instant orders get filled to clear sell orders and buyers are willing to buy at whatever market price is at any moment , the price will rally up until sellers get more aggressive than buyers, Now I can surely explain it because of this legend😢😢

[@paulnyagini]

@@NI_TURAGARA not really that's just common knowledge. If buyers become more aggressive it doesn't guarantee that the price will rally. That's only happens if you are dealing with less liquidity markets because of huge potential of volatility which creates huge slippage and helps market markers to push the price to the upside.

[@michaelcheung6290]

Best explanation I have ever seen! this deserves more views! Keep it up thank you Sir

[@CriticalTrading]

+Ka Wai Michael Cheung thanks for your support, appreciate it.

[@KevinNugara]

Fantastic video! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!!

[@rundown666]

So when I was trading BTC/USDT yesterday, and the were like 3 million SELL orders at 43,500; this would have moved the price UP, were there enough market orders triggerimg enough of these limit orders, to wipe them out? It seems counter intuitive to me. I would have expected it to fall - viewing in the light of supply and demand. If 3 million people just sold, then the supply just went up.... 🤔 but I suppose it's the inverse of that isn't it, because in order for them to sell, someone else had to be buying it - therefore lessening the supply. Think I might have to watch this a few more times. Nice video explanation, though, thanks!

[@mistletoe91]

I was looking for this video for years. More videos like this please

[@garymassey6973]

Outstanding explanation - well done!

[@jacobcarullo8820]

Does this mean that only market orders move the price up and down? (Since limit buys and limit sells just sits and waits to be filled?)

[@paulnyagini]

Not really. Because market markers will always be on play meaning they will take all market orders. And move the price to there advantage the limit orders will act as hedge on there positions in balancing the book. Most of time the volume is what move the market now the real question should be between limit orders and market orders which one has the highest volume?

[@edsbloggingcom]

Absolutely great video! Explains it very well. Best video I have seen on KZbin for any novice or little experienced trader. Thanks 🙏

[@CHAVO163]

Outstanding job ! Really helpfull thanks !!!!

[@Mr1987atul]

It means.. buying or selling at market price is risky.. the buy or sale price limit has to be determined whenever placing order.. or it might go for available price.

[@kanthavalloo626]

Excellent information .... World Class at its finest . Thanks and God bless you with all the wealth and opportunities !

[@solomonlalani]

good explanation. Please advise; 1. is the data provided by the broker for DOM relates only to limit orders with the broker or is it market data? 2. Is the data provided on MT4 for the entire market or just the broker? 3. Is the data provided by TradingView for the market?

[@Permanent-Cure]

If you got the answers then plz let me also know

[@elac1256]

Very thorough explanation. Thanks.

[@hjelbey]

Question? It may sound dumb but... what if there are 2 passive traders with identical bid/ask price, will those orders be paired... or are passive bid/ask orders ONLY paired with aggressive bid/ask orders?

[@sagacitystudies]

What a terrific explanation of the DOM... thank you for clearing the whole concept up!

[@SboNdwandwe]

Amazing video, I think I finally understand. Thank you.

[@traderzzz123]

Question: so if price is going up, and aggressive buy order is matched with sell limit orders, what will aggressive sell orders be matched with? As buy limit orders will be all the way down.

[@hardik.satasiya]

Thanks for the explaination, its very old video but its GOLD 😊, accurately tells how market price moves, Thanks 👍🏻

[@vedavyas8496]

extraordinarily simple and important and basic and awesome and rare. please make more videos

[@ramshinde6738]

Awesome video man.....This is must watch video before anyone starting stock market journey. Thank you once again for great explanation.😊

[@matchedimpedance]

Thank you. What does a matching engine do if a buy market order and sell market order both arrive but there are no guiding limit orders in the book? Does the exchange happen between the market orders at the most recent exchange price?

[@bryanbans]

Proud to be the 1000th like on this video! It deserves even more!!

[@CriticalTrading]

Hey Oscar, thanks very much for that!

[@Astfresser]

what happens when i place a buy stop order for 3 contracts at 103 @ 10:09 in the video? would the price then move up to 103 straight away as a turnover happens?

[@Lazypersonn]

No

[@ak57401]

Awesome bro..was banging my head to understand the price movement... crystal clear now.

[@CriticalTrading]

Thanks!

[@Interloper322]

What about price suppression or support? Putting big sell q on top to prevent it from going up, or big buys at a lower level to create a support

[@philipmurray4065]

Let's say I'm that big buyer and I want the price to jump from 99 to 103 immediately and I don't put market order but limit order. How to do that? I should buy all those three "asks" at the top? Or in a different way? Or is it enough if a buy even one of those 3 "asks" at the top?

[@julianwalker688]

This video provided great clarity for me. Thank you

[@everasea]

EXTREMELY helpful! Thank you!

[@franciscoramos7391]

Finally I got it. Thanks for this excellent explanation. You got a new subscriber

[@AimeOrtega-t9p]

You're doing a fantastic job! I need some advice: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?

[@BrockPlaysFortnite]

Cool way to visualize gaps

[@hardwaybets]

Fantastically explained! Thank you for sharing your knowledge about the DOM. I appreciate you.

[@q.b.3828]

best explanation on youtube

[@JmusicxK]

so when the market gaps up or down and buyers/sellers get slippage - this creates inefficiency in the market? within the area that has gapped?

[@adisingh4422]

this was amazingly informative and clear. you just gained a subscriber

[@radihadzhiev6630]

Hello, would it be possible to create a video on volume profile?

[@TalkToMeGoose550]

this is a great breakdown. Very well explained. Thank you.
