Auction Market Theory is a gift to us traders from Peter Steidlmayer. He was a member of Chicago Board Of Trade and there he developed for the first time CBOT Market Profile. This is what he is famous for, but little do traders know about his real contribution to the world of trading.
Yes, its not market profile but the underlying philosophy of market profile and for that matter any transaction that ever took place in this world, auction theory.
It is a simple application of the auction theory to the markets. It is very simple and its simplicity often fools traders about its usefulness. I myself disregarded it in the beginning until AI realised its true potential.
There are only two of them and yet they cover the entire markets, fascinating isn’t it.
That’s it and yet it is all-encompassing. You will have to understand that this is better understood with real-life examples and there are a ton of that covered in the course video on this topic.
To understand the strength of this theory you must realise that the powerful tools like market profile, order flow and VSA are based on this theory only.
The more you study it in real-world the more examples you find and the more you realise that it is at the base of every transaction that ever took place. This is a fascinating topic to learn and I cant wait to share it with you…
