I’m exploring footprint chart features on platforms like FastBull curious how others apply them in real trading.
Footprint charts don’t apply to spot forex CFD trading, because they have inputs like volume and order-flow.
Forex is decentralized, so the only information a CFD “broker” can possibly give you (because it’s all they can have) is their own customers’ volume and orders, which isn’t useful.
(For people trading currency futures, of course, it’s a whole different story and situation).

There’s a conspiracy of ignoring (occasionally even denying!!) this reality, at Babypips.
There are people who don’t believe it, people who don’t understand it, people who dislike it, and people who apparently think that if they just ignore it completely it will go away and not be relevant to them.
