Never read Lyons, and it is very low on my to do list.
Well if you want to be a quant, then you study quant stuff I guess.
If you want to be an order flow trader, then you study order flow, information flow, news, liquidity, global macro stuff,etc.
There are some top hedge fund managers that are quants. There are many that are non quants as well. There are more non quants in the list. So I guess that is a hint, but each person’s skills lie in different strategies.
