In this blog post, we will explore the best trading tools used by Axia Traders. We will break down for you three videos that explain the tools in a different light than you might be used to. Regular readers are familiar with our in-depth use of tools such as Market Profile, Volume Profile, Price Ladder (DOM), and Footprint. On top of that, we will dive into Bookmap and Cumulative Delta as well. The key objective of this article is to explain WHY and WHEN we use these tools and how combining them can make you a more efficient decision-maker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Different tools serve different purposes. A good analogy is a football. When you use a tool such as a price ladder, it gives you immediate action, the intention as well as what just happened. Footprint on the other hand gives you information about what actually happened. Where exactly the ball went but not the intention of the player where he wanted to pass it. Your goal is to leverage these tools so they maximize your information processing capabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So when do you use these tools?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let’s talk about a great example of combining all three tools of Price Ladder, Footprint, and Bookmap together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Combine them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are two important tools we at Axia Futures find valuable. Market Profile for a contextual understanding of where we are, where are we trying to get, and how good of a job the market is doing getting there. Market Profile gives us the superpower of seeing inside the price action movements for what they really are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have talked about Footprint and what it can tell you. It is the harmony with Market Profile that can create an interesting opportunity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Case study of trading tools:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Understanding the landscape using the market profile is one way to gain an edge and then you can use the Footprint to pinpoint the exact location for the trade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When it comes to your charts and indicators, a good rule of thumb is to ask yourself: What value will this bring to my decision-making process? Where will it improve my process? If you can’t answer these types of questions with a clear one-sentence answer, then there’s a good chance that you are wasting some of your mental capacity. Cut the fat and notice if there is any impact on your decision-making process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In this video, Richard breaks down every indicator he uses and what value each one brings to his decision-making process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Here is the breakdown of trading tools:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Given all of the above, we have sat down with one of our traders and designed a masterclass exactly for that purpose.
