Re: L2 reading info

In terms of trick of specialists or market makers: Tape Reading and Market Tactics is a great book by Humphrey Neill.

L2 reading, i havnen't really read any books on it but from personal experience its not the most reliable tool and I personally don't like using it cause it can get so manipulated.

There's a post somewhere on this forum about market manipulation as well as a post concerning L2 somewhere. Try the search function.

Best of luck

Re: L2 reading info

L2 are nothing but a platform for headgames and mindgames. But to stick with what's already fact, Time and Sales (tape). Showing is one thing but acting on the show is another.
