Big Trade, Order Flow

24 August 2026

Relatively large amount of buying or selling executed at/near the same price or within a short period.

Big trade + price reaction = the real information

For your Felix Ma 888 system, I would treat it like this:

BIG ORDER → LOCATION → RESPONSE → CONFIRMATION → ENTRY

Your framework can become:

Previous Day Volume Profile

↓

POC / HVN / LVN

↓

Anchored VWAP

↓

Price reaches important location

↓

Watch order flow

↓

Identify unusually large trades

↓

Observe whether price accepts or rejects

↓

Enter only after confirmation

So don't ask:

“Where are the big trades?”

Ask:

“Where are big trades occurring, and what is price doing afterward?”

That is the institutional-grade way to interpret order flow.
