Why traders stay

Consistently updated for the current market.

A DS indicator is never finished. Each one is reworked as the market changes, and every release is tuned for speed before it reaches your chart.

v3.2

the current release

Consistently updated for the current market

Markets change, so the suite does too. v3.2 put every tool on one label style and one set of plain-worded settings, pinned the DS GEX map to the last session close and added new tools to both vaults. Members get every update and every new tool at no extra cost.

0.5x

DS Flow's draw time against NinjaTrader's own candles, down from 2.4x

Optimized for speed before every release

Each release goes through several lag-reducing passes before it ships. On our test chart running the whole suite, every DS tool measured below NinjaTrader's own candles in draw time, and labels are now laid out once instead of on every frame.

1

shared price-tag column for every tool on the chart

Built to share one chart

Load as many as you like: every DS tool reads in the same colors and label style, and their price tags share one column by the axis, stepping aside for each other instead of overlapping. Tick, range, volume and Renko charts draw on exactly the right bars.

New in v3.2

  • DS Candlestick Patterns, DS Compass and DS Ember are new in the Essentials Vault
  • The Free Vault is back, in a folder of its own, with DS HTF PO3 new in it
  • One label style and one Label size across the suite, with a name in front of every value
  • Every setting explained in plain words in the Properties window, every opacity a simple percent
  • DS GEX builds its map from the last session close, so it is the same whenever you open NinjaTrader
  • New guides for every tool, opening with the Properties window exactly as NinjaTrader shows it

On your chart

The data behind the candles, in plain words.

Most of the suite reads order flow: what actually traded at each price, not only where price went. Every read is drawn as a clean, named level, so a glance tells you what you are looking at.

  • Where the volume traded, split into buying and selling
  • Which side is pressing, and where size was hidden
  • Which levels are holding, tested or broken

Questions

Before you join

What is the difference between the two vaults?

The Free Vault holds 10 free tools. A free account opens it, each tool is its own download, and none of them needs a license. They are free for good, not a trial and not a stripped build.

The DS Essentials Vault holds every paid DS indicator, 14 today, for one membership at $39.99 a month. Members keep the Free Vault too, on the same account.

How does the membership work?

$39.99 a month, renewing monthly until you cancel. Cancel any time from your Whop account: you are not billed again, and the vault stays open until the end of the month you paid for.

Checkout asks for the email on your NinjaTrader account, because the license is tied to it. Access is switched on by a person after checkout, so allow a short gap before your first chart: until then NinjaTrader shows a Vendor Notification, which is expected. Restart NinjaTrader once you are switched on.

Can I cancel any time?

Yes. Memberships are handled by Whop, our checkout: sign in at whop.com, then Profile, then Orders, and cancel there. Cancelling stops the next renewal and you keep the vault until the end of the period you have already paid for.

Payments already made are not refunded part-way through a month (Terms & Conditions, section 13).

Do I get new indicators as they are made?

Yes, that is the point of the vault. Every new paid DS indicator goes into the Essentials Vault, and members get it at no extra cost. There is no bundle to buy again and no upgrade fee.

Today's price is the founders price, until founder slots are filled. As more indicators join the vault, the price for new members will only go up.

What do I need to run them?

NinjaTrader 8, version 8.1.8.1 or newer, on Windows. NinjaTrader itself is free to download and to use on a simulated account.

Each tool's own page says what it reads from your chart, so you can check before you join.
