Re: Time & Sales

Unless you're scalping for a few ticks I don't think there's anything you can get from tape reading that you can't get from a candlestick chart with volume. A fast tape just means more volume. More green doesn't mean more buyers (of course there's always an equal number of buyers and sellers in futures trading) it just means more contracts are made at the offer and you can use a bid/ask delta indicator for that if you really think you need it. Reading the chart allows greater objectivity in your trading.
