DS 258
A whisper-quiet map of the Nasdaq's 00/20/50/80 price levels, drawn across the whole visible chart so the levels NQ keeps reacting to are never in the way.
- Every 00/20/50/80 in view
- Opacity 7, a whisper not a wall
- Nothing to calculate or configure
- Its own colour per level

How it helps
Nasdaq futures move in hundred-point blocks, and the same four prices inside every block keep doing the work: the 00, the 20, the 50 and the 80. Drawing them by hand gets old fast. DS 258 lays a whisper-quiet line on every one of them across the visible chart, in its own colour, at an opacity low enough to forget it's there — until price stops on one.
Free
Permanently. Not a trial, not a stripped build.
Nothing is charged and no card is asked for — you are told the day it opens.

In detail
The four prices inside every Nasdaq hundred-point block, always on the chart.
29,000 · 29,020 · 29,050 · 29,080 · 29,100 — the 00, 20, 50 and 80 keep doing the work. This lays a line on every one in view, at an opacity you forget until price stops on it.
Built to disappear
- Every 00/20/50/80 level in view, each in its own colour
- Opacity 7 by default — a whisper, not a wall
- De-clutters automatically as you zoom out
- Nothing to calculate, nothing to configure
Add it to an NQ or MNQ chart and the map is simply there.
Test it on your own charts first.
Four screenshots and a paragraph are not enough to judge an indicator on. Watch it work in your own instrument, on your own timeframe, before it goes anywhere near a live account. Both ways of doing that are free.
- 01
Replay a session you have already seen
Market Replay runs a past session back tick by tick, at whatever speed you like. You get to watch DS 258 print in conditions you remember, and pause on the bars where it mattered.

Then trade it forward, on the simulator
Replay shows you the past with the ending already known. The simulator does not — it runs live, in real time, on real prices, with nothing at stake. That is where you find out whether you can actually act on what you are seeing.
A simulated fill is not a live fill. Replay and the simulator cannot reproduce real queue position, slippage, or what it feels like to hold a position with money on it, and results from either may differ materially from live trading. Test to learn how a tool behaves — not to estimate what it might return.
