Neural theme

Your chart, glowing on its own.

Forge’s default theme: ice for buys, pink for sells and violet for the POC, with a glow in their color on the candles, on every footprint cell and on big trades. Turn it up, down or off, from 0 to 100%.

The essentials

Footprint, profiles, VWAP and whales on a single chart.

Our own GPU-accelerated chart engine. Every color, threshold and level is yours to adjust.

Footprint bid×ask

Bid×ask cells with readable numbers, diagonal imbalances, POC and value area. Stays legible even on a crowded chart.

Clusters

Key candles and absorption zones that invalidate on touch. Reversals and continuations flagged live.

Volume profile

Volume profile of the visible range with 70% value area and POC, plus the session profile and yesterday’s.

VWAP + bands and cumulative delta

Session VWAP weighted by the real volume at each level, with ±1σ / ±2σ bands. Cumulative delta in its own panel.

Tick-by-tick replay

Rewind the market and watch every footprint form trade by trade, from 0.5× to 8×. For study and for recording.

Big trades

Whales marked as bubbles on their candle, with an automatic percentile threshold or a fixed one of your choice.

Session levels

Your key levels from the previous session — POC, VAH/VAL, naked and overnight — projected onto today and configurable in detail.

How to read it

One chart. All the flow, layer by layer.

Scroll and watch Forge stack each read on the same price.

01

Footprint

Every candle split open: volume bought on the right, sold on the left. The POC in amber and the diagonal imbalances show you where price is fighting.

02

Clusters

The engine flags key candles and draws the absorption zone. It stays until price touches it and invalidates it — reversal or continuation, in plain sight.

03

VWAP & cumulative delta

Session VWAP with its bands and cumulative delta in its own panel. You know whether real volume is driving the move or it’s just noise.

04

Session levels

POC, value area and naked/overnight levels from the previous session, projected onto today with labels pinned to the axis.

Chart trading

Trade from the chart.

Forge’s Order Panel: enter at market with your stop and target already set, and follow the position right on the footprint.

Built-in journal

Every trade, logged for you.

Automatic record of every trade. Equity curve, heat calendar and each trade replayed on its candlestick chart.

Forge journal: equity curve, HUD and metrics

The data

Live and replay, tick by tick.

Live order flow

Every trade with its aggressor side: price, size and who swept the book. The footprint fills in by itself, in real time.

Multi-timeframe on the fly

Switch between 1m, 5m, 15m or range whenever you want: Forge rebuilds the footprint from raw ticks instantly.

Forge does not include market data. To see the market you need your own Rithmic data account, the one your broker or prop firm gives you. For now it’s the only one supported.

Just a heads-up: some prop firms only let you use their connection to see the market, not to trade from another platform. If you’re not sure, ask them whether they allow trading through Rithmic from third-party platforms.
