NinjaTrader 8 — DOM Intelligence

READ THE MARKET IN REAL TIME

Flownaut DOM decodes hidden order flow — imbalances, absorption zones, Book Delta, Pull / Stack / Iceberg behavior, live PnL context, and optional execution controls — directly in your NinjaTrader 8 DOM ladder.

EVERY EDGE
UNCOVERED

Fourteen precision-engineered signal types plus manual level tools that decode order flow, liquidity, session structure, and high-conviction reversal zones in real time.

Imbalance

Detects price levels where one side aggressively dominates. Aggressive buyers or sellers absorbing all passive liquidity — a directional commitment signal.

Stacked Imbalance

Multiple consecutive imbalance rows in the same direction. High-conviction zones.

POC / VAL / VAH

Point of Control, Value Area High, and Value Area Low calculated from the active profile. The default 70% value area is adjustable, giving you clean auction reference levels directly on the ladder.

Absorption

High volume printing against tiny net delta. Price tried to move through but was rejected. Marked with a teal right-edge bar.

Exhaustion

A previously imbalanced level revisited with delta flipped in the opposite direction. Sign of a failed auction or post-distribution. Marked with an orange top stripe.

Trapped Traders zone

Price broke through a stacked imbalance zone then quickly reversed back through it. Potential zone of interest. Marked with pink left + right bracket bars. Zone persists 90 seconds.

Iceberg Orders

Hidden size replenishing at the same price after execution. Teal (bid) / Pink (ask) columns with time decay.

Pull (Spoofing)

Passive orders cancelled without any execution — pure withdrawal of liquidity. The market showed an order then pulled it. Orange (bid) / Purple (ask). Time-decayed, configurable 0.90–0.99/tick.

Large Orders

Volume spike significantly above neighboring levels. Flags prints. Marked as a purple bar — these are point of interest.

Opening Range

Three independent session windows — London, US Open, Lunch — each track their own high and low live. Choose 30s, 1m, 5m, or 15m OR duration, then let the locked range persist as a key reference marker.

Swing Failure Pattern

Price wicks beyond a prior swing extreme then closes back inside the prior range. Aggressive breakout traders caught offside, forced to reverse, fueling a sharp counter-move. Bull SFP: teal bottom stripe. Bear SFP: pink top stripe.

API Price Levels ( BETA VERSION )

External reference prices loaded from an API endpoint and displayed as labeled markers in the Level column. Previous day high/low, Previous 1h high/low, Midnight, 6 PM, or any level your strategy needs. Auto-refreshes every 5 minutes.

Sweep / Reclaim

Price sweeps through a key level — opening range high/low, previous 1H extreme, or an API-defined pivot — then reclaims it with confirmed reversal back inside. Not just a touch: reclaim logic requires actual closure back through the level, making this catching failed breakouts at structural price.

Manual Levels & Confluence

Add, edit, or delete your own labeled price levels directly from settings. Manual, API, opening range, POC/VAH/VAL, P1H/P4H, Midnight, and 6 PM levels share a clean color and confluence system so overlapping zones stand out without clutter.

LAYER BY
LAYER

01
Live DOM Ladder

The base layer shows bid and ask depth normalized to the largest visible level. Book Delta highlights where visible size is being added, refreshed, pulled, or reduced.

02
Footprint + Recent Flow

Every print is tracked as buy or sell delta per price level, while Recent B/A keeps the freshest live aggression near price visible before stale flow fades out.

03
Signal + Level Layer

Imbalances, absorption, exhaustion, sweep/reclaim, POC/VAH/VAL, opening ranges, API levels, and manual levels stack into one readable ladder context.

04
Account Context

When the selected account and instrument match, Flownaut can project position, entry, SL, TP, working-order markers, and open PnL directly into the trading workspace.

BUILT FOR
PRECISION

Every element of Flownaut DOM is engineered to give you clean, actionable information — with zero UI stutter at the speed of the market.

Zero-Stutter Updates

16ms refresh (60fps). Row-level rendering is optimized for best performance. Scroll input coalesced — smoother DOM and lower CPU usage even at peak volatility.

🔒
View Lock & Scroll

Locked mode keeps price centered automatically. Unlock to anchor view at any price level and scroll with arrow buttons or mouse wheel.

⚙️
Column Layout & Customization

Reorder, resize, show/hide, and set fill direction per column — all live with no restart needed. Move columns left or right of price, then save reusable layout/settings templates.

🎨
Customizable Colors

Every signal color is user-configurable. Match your chart theme or create a completely custom visual language for your trading setup.

📊
Ghost Volume Profile on auto reset

Preserves the last 2 sessions' volume profiles as a transparent background reference. Historical context without visual clutter, erased as price revisits levels.

Time-Decay Engine

Pull and Iceberg signals decay over time at a configurable rate (0.90–0.99 per update). Old signals fade naturally so you always see the freshest data.

🎚
Per-Signal Toggles

Each signal overlay can be independently enabled or disabled. Start with everything visible and progressively reduce to the signals that fit your edge.

🏛
Native NT8 AddOn

Built on NinjaTrader 8's AddOnBase. Deep platform integration means reliable data and smooth performance.

🕐
Opening Range Sessions

London, US Open, and Lunch session windows tracked independently. Choose 30-second, 1-minute, 5-minute, or 15-minute ranges; highs and lows update live, then lock after the selected window.

🎯

📡
Recent Bid/Ask Flow Column

A dedicated live-only ladder column tracking fresh aggressive flow per price level — buyers lifting the ask, sellers hitting the bid. Fade timing, volume filter, distance from price, and number display are adjustable.

📊
Book Delta & P&S Columns

Read visible order-book pressure with Book Delta, split Bid/Ask Book Delta, Pull, and Stack columns. Bar-scale half-life smoothing keeps big liquidity events readable without changing the underlying data.

🕓

When Flownaut can match the selected trade account and instrument, it shows open-position PnL and projects POS, ENT, SL, TP, and ORD markers into the Lvl column.

🎚
Optional Trade Panel

Optional NinjaTrader routing with simulator-first workflow, bracket/manual/exit-only modes, native OCO SL/TP slices, typed limits, BUY BID / SELL ASK shortcuts, rate limits, and guarded confirmations.

📍
Position & Order Markers

Project selected account position, pending entry, stop, targets, and working orders directly onto the DOM row near price, so trade state stays visible without leaving the ladder.

🛡
Manual Management Controls

Disable new trading, review Flownaut working orders, cancel per row, move stop to breakeven, flatten plus cancel, or drag visible SL/TP markers on the DOM to request safe order moves.

Hotkeys, Tape Filters & Templates

Use hotkeys for lock/free-scroll, settings, screenshots, reset, history reload, and two-step flatten. Filter small tape prints, highlight larger trades, and save templates for repeatable setups.

EVERYTHING YOU
NEED TO KNOW

Straight answers to the questions traders ask before buying.

Yes. Flownaut DOM is a native NinjaTrader 8 AddOn and works with any data feed NinjaTrader supports. Some assets have different tick sizes; it was originally built for NQ / MNQ and ES / MES, and includes automatic tick sizing on connection.
NinjaTrader 8 — free or licensed version. Flownaut DOM is built on NT8's modern .NET architecture. NinjaTrader 7 is not supported.
No. Flownaut DOM runs inside NinjaTrader and uses your existing broker/data connection. Its optional trade panel can submit orders only when you explicitly enable and confirm that workflow; otherwise you can use it purely as a visualization and analysis layer.
A standard trading PC with 8 GB RAM or more and a modern multi-core processor. You can run multiple DOM windows simultaneously with minimal CPU impact. No dedicated GPU needed.
No, but if you want the full DOM market-depth Pull and Iceberg system, you need Level 2 market data enabled in NinjaTrader.
One-time payment per term — no auto-renewal, ever. Choose 6 months ($199) or 1 year Pro ($349). When the term ends the license expires, but you are never billed again automatically.
Each license covers up to 2 machines simultaneously — your main trading PC and a backup, for example. Both activations are included at no extra cost.
Contact us at contact@deltaforge.shop. We will verify your identity and issue a fresh activation for your new machine. The process is handled promptly during business days.
An internet connection is required at startup to validate your license. Once validated, Flownaut DOM runs entirely locally inside NinjaTrader for the rest of the session.
Yes. Payments are processed by Stripe, a PCI-DSS certified global payment processor. We never see or store your card details — everything is handled end-to-end by Stripe's hosted checkout.
All major credit and debit cards — Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover — via Stripe. Additional payment methods may be available depending on your region.
Yes. Stripe sends an automatic payment receipt to your email immediately after purchase. Your license key is delivered to the same address.
Yes — 7 days from purchase, even after activation. If Flownaut DOM does not deliver value in the first week, contact us at contact@deltaforge.shop for a full refund. No complicated process, no questions about whether you activated.
All updates to maintain compatibility with NinjaTrader 8 are included for the duration of your license term. If an NT8 release breaks something, we fix it and push an updated version at no extra charge.
New versions are delivered as updated installer files. You will be notified by email when a new version is available for your active license term, with download instructions included.
Email us at contact@deltaforge.shop. We are active traders and developers — you get a personal response, not a bot or ticket queue.
