Long trades drive price action—short trades don't.
This isn't market theory. It's order flow reality that separates profitable traders from the perpetually confused. When you grasp this fundamental truth about how markets actually move, you stop wasting time on noise and start following the money that matters.
Here's the problem: retail traders see volume spikes and think they understand positioning. They spot unusual activity at key strikes and immediately scream "gamma wall" without knowing whether those trades opened new positions or closed existing ones. They're reading footprints without knowing which direction the person was walking.
Real order flow analysis is forensic work. You need to decode trade disposition—not just that significant orders happened, but what they reveal about future price movement. It's the difference between seeing market activity and understanding market intent.
Brandon Chapman has spent nearly two decades perfecting this investigative approach to reading institutional positioning. He doesn't chase the loudest unusual activity—he hunts for the smartest activity. The trades that reveal where big money is positioning before retail traders even notice something's happening.
His Ghost Prints Weekly service transforms this forensic analysis into one crystal-clear signal each week. No data overload. No conflicting interpretations. Just the cleanest read on where institutional money is setting up for the next significant move.
This approach changes everything about how you read markets. When you understand trade disposition, gamma walls become predictive tools instead of mysterious market phenomena. When you trade spreads based on real positioning data, implied volatility becomes irrelevant noise. You're trading with intelligence instead of hope.
The institutional money leaves breadcrumbs in the order flow every single trading session. They can't hide their footprints—but they can disguise their direction. Brandon Chapman has built his reputation on reading those footprints correctly, consistently, and before anyone else connects the dots.
The question isn't whether the clues are there. The question is whether you know how to find them.
