I'm somewhat new in using the DOM and orderflow analysis, but not new to the markets and already have an existing methodology. So, I'm not looking to become a DOM trader or scalper per se, but see it as potentially useful tool, although I'm not 100% convinced on that either.
The Jigsaw DOM looks great. I'd love to use it. But paying nearly $600 just for a DOM is a bit more than I can take right now, particularly considering that I'm not even quite sold on it's utility yet and have other expenses (full NT license, datafeed, etc.).
Sierra Charts has very good DOM. Highly customizable and you can do anything and even more than in Jigsaw + you have very good charting system than runs smoothly. Plus side is that if you trade live, even the montly lease for most expensive package is cheaper than 50$ you have to pay with Jigsaw.
I switched from Jigsaw and I will highly recommend checking it out. It has 15 days free trial.
Sierra Charts is probably a very good suggestion and one I had in mind already. I tried the platform briefly and didn't like the charts or user interface since I have used NT for so long, but I suppose using the DOM would be an alternative.
Mind saying why you went from Jigsaw to Sierra? Would you be interested in selling your Jigsaw license (provided that's legal)?
Also, would be nice if you could post a screenshot of your DOM.
There were few personal reasons why I like Sierra Charts more than Jigsaw:
1. Lower fees.
2. Charting - You get access to Volume Profile studies, Market Depth studies etc. I and some of my comrades I trade with ended up recreating the Jigsaw Auction Vista what is visually more appealing to me and information I am looking for is easier to read.
There are other small nuances.
I still think the Jigsaw has very good DOM and is superb program to use. Leaderboard and trade statistics are great extra tools to use.
I could consider re-selling the license if it is legal. Maybe @DionysusToast can clarify, if I am allowed to do so.
