Relation between Position Amount and Position Size

[BullFXtrade1]

A big thanks to Djamal for your hard selfless work wich realy help me a lot.

I noticed the pos size indi give a notice before the pos amount indi on whats to come. I mean just becuse there is a lot of trades does’nt meant ther’s lots of lot size. So from SMC algo point of view I think there more intrested in size than amount of trades.
If you have the time mayby you can give your take on the reading of Position Amount and Size indis.

Yes, I refered to PositionsAmount and PositionsVolume.

I tried to edit my post but manage only to create a second one. Mayby someone can remove the duplicate.

Sure BullFX,

so PositionsAmount shows you the actual DM positions.

PositionsVolume shows you in addition over-leveraged DM positions. Often, these are taken out with a “quick” countermove by the SM Algos. Whenever both, PositionsAmount and PositionsVolume are on the same side, this could be a basis for predicting a countermove by the SM.
