Orderflow analysis is a trading methodology that examines the actual buy and sell orders flowing through the market. Unlike traditional technical analysis which only looks at price and volume bars, orderflow reveals who is trading — showing you the bid/ask volume at every price level, the delta (difference between buying and selling), and imbalances that signal institutional activity.
With orderflow tools like footprint charts, traders can see absorption (large orders being filled without moving price), aggressive buying/selling (market orders hitting the bid or ask), and exhaustion patterns — all in real-time.
