Excellent explanation of swing trading Dallas, I hope you get the chance to do some similar posts to this. A couple of things that have me confused however, I can't tell if these are screen shots of an actual real trade, or it they are diagrams you have created to illustrate how to go about swing trading.

The reasons for my confusion are as follows:-

If we look at image 1, we see that £2.1k has traded at price point 5.2. Then if we look at image 2, there is still only £2.1k traded at price point 5.2 even though you have had your £100 trade filled. If this is a real screen shot I don't understand how this can happen, does BF not record some of the trades going through?

Then in image 3 we can see that £8.8k has been traded at price point 6.2, but in image 4 we see that only £3.8k has been traded at 6.2, this makes no sense at all to me, as time moves on the total traded volume at a particular price point increases not decreases.

The only explanation I can think of to explain these discrepancies are that these are not real screen shots, but if I have made a mistake can you please explain what exactly is going on.

Im guessing he was illustrating his point by using practice mode, hence why the money didnt show up, but i could be wrong :?
