I'm trying to decide on a futures platform for trading delta volume imbalance footprint charts.

I would like them to be flexible enough with settings.

As well I'm interested in good supporting tools like ability to draw the appropriate lines for Overnight Highs, session highs, first hour of day, point of control, etc.

And they should have a good selection of related volume indicators that are useful as well.

Could someone explain the pros and cons of each? with what I have in mind... I mean I don't need to know about automated trading or renko chart capabilities for example.

What about having multiple volume profiles side by side on the same chart, comparing say today vs yesterday vs some d ays ago?

Can any or all of these platforms display the points or tick range for each rotation?

also what about lesser know platforms like bookmap, ATAS and tigertrade?

Also I would prefer to use Rithmic but I think they all support Rithmic, right?

I don’t use footprint, although I know you can on Sierra. I love the speed and low CPU / Memory usage by Sierra.

I think the best is to try these platforms in demo mode. Most platforms offer a free trial in demo mode, some with live data and then you can decide on your own which one is more intuitive for you.

I like sierra, bookmap, investor R/T, Jigsaw to name a few when it comes to order flow etc.

We offer free trials to most.
