Most day traders operate mainly in the world of stock index futures and equities. However, the need for commodities will always remain and has been with mankind since the beginning. All the theories known today for determining future market movements were developed by traders in the commodity futures markets, as these are more supply and demand orientated.

This book aims to identify significant intraday movements in selected commodity markets at an early stage. It is aimed at advanced traders who aspire to become full-time professionals. Basic knowledge about TPO, volume profiles and order flow was taught in my book "The Next Generation of Day Trading" published in 2022 and is not covered in depth here.

These thought processes take place in a short time in day trading and are not suitable for everyone. However, they are closer to reality than any other attempt to predict future price developments on markets. An important aspect is that the timing of market entry or exit is decisive for success or failure, regardless of whether you are trading for the short, medium or long term. In this sense, every market participant is a day trader.

The special thing about this book is that it is designed like a diary with well over 200 current charts from the year 2023, in which important zones are linked to intra- or intermarket relations. All the trading approaches presented here are largely unknown. The last section of the book also presents filters for short-term trading in gold. These are based on two decades of observation.

Working people in Europe usually only have time to observe the market in the early European evening. Domestic markets are less suitable for this as institutional trading no longer takes place at this time. It is the US markets that can offer traders opportunities in the European evening hours.

This book is not designed for beginners, but builds on my 2022 book "Volume Profile, Market Profile, Order Flow - The Next Generation of Day Trading". The essential basics were explained there. In this respect, this book is also a supplement for full-time day traders, as other important topics and analysis methods are addressed here.

The approaches presented here again focus on trading situations in which the probability of significant movements is increased. In contrast to scalping, the approaches presented here again focus on trading situations in which the probability of significant movements is increased. It is also made clear that there is no Holy Grail of setups that can be crammed into a set of rules. Over 200 charts are designed to help advanced traders improve their understanding of the market and optimise their own trading style.

Profile zone and order flow analysis alone offer no guarantee of successful trading, as trading in general requires additional qualities that lie hidden within the individual. These must be developed in a process based on observation, experience and determination and ultimately give a trader the necessary instinct for a profitable trading opportunity. At the back of the book, a few aspects are summarised that every trader should observe in themselves.

This book deals with short-term crypto market trading and was completed after around three years of intensive research. It is the first book in the world to explain trading approaches of profile zone and order flow analysis for the crypto market. In this sense, this book is hugely pioneering as it describes how to evaluate this market from a holistic perspective better than conventional trading approaches.

Given the crypto bear market at the time, this book was published a little too late. This was due to the fact that it took almost three years to prepare. It would have saved crypto traders a lot of problems, as it shows trading approaches that work equally well in both market directions.  The analysis steps presented here make an objective assessment of the future market direction more reliable, even if they may seem unfamiliar at first. This book should not be read by anyone who uses conventional technical analysis methods.

The approaches presented relate to the directional Bitcoin future and other well-known cryptocurrencies. However, despite my efforts to write clearly, this book is less suitable for beginners as it assumes some basic charting knowledge. Instead, it is ideal for traders who have made a crash landing with known technical trading approaches.

There are controversial opinions about the future development of cryptocurrencies. This book is not about substantive assessments, but about trading approaches that make it possible to navigate this market much more safely and without stress. It is not based on expert opinions. Instead, only pure information generated by the market itself is analysed without bias. It is not a copyable system or an "indicator", but a holistic method of analysis that uses free specialised software to observe emerging market and trading situations and attempts to put them into context. Every trend begins with movements at the micro level.

The most valuable part of this book consists of more than 80 colour charts, some of which are presented in landscape format for quicker understanding. In addition, traders will learn things they can't find in any other book.
