Price is the result. Order flow lets you look at the trades behind it: volume at the bid and ask, large prints and the way activity builds at each price.

Open the footprint, follow cumulative delta or build a profile. Each is a different view of the same market, kept together on your chart.

Use points of control, value areas and session levels to put that activity in context. Reference points drawn from real trades.

DeepAlpha is a native Windows application built around index futures. Charts, profiles and order-flow studies share one workspace.

Move between nine timeframes, inspect a single candle or profile a range you choose. Keep the session’s levels in view as you work.

Then return to a recorded day. Replay it bar by bar, with future bars hidden, and practise with simulated account rules.

One workspace,
built by a futures trader.

Frequently asked.

A few details about the charts, recorded data and early access.

What is DeepAlpha?

A native Windows charting application for ES, NQ, MES and MNQ futures. It brings footprint charts, profiles, delta and contextual studies into one workspace. The product is currently in private testing.

What data do the charts use?

Futures order flow uses CME Globex MDP 3.0 data via Databento. GEX studies use Cboe options data. The interactive example above is a recorded ES session from the DeepAlpha database; it is not a live feed.

How do I compare the studies?

Choose Footprint, Profiles, Big Trades or Delta, then drag the divider. With a keyboard, focus the divider and use the arrow keys; Shift moves it further. Home and End move to its limits. The arrows beside the tabs cycle through studies.

Which timeframes are available?

The nine chart timeframes are 1m, 2m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1H, 4H and Daily. The recorded example on this page uses one-minute bars.

How do replay and simulation work?

Replay a recorded day one bar at a time with future bars hidden. The simulator applies prop-account rules, including daily loss, drawdown and a target, with simulated rule sets for Apex and Lucid. It is practice in a simulation, not live trading.
