See the volume inside every candle

A candlestick shows where price went. ATAS shows how it got there: how many contracts traded at each price, and whether buyers or sellers drove the move. Footprint charts, depth of market, time and sales and market profile in one platform.

What is ATAS

Candles show the result. The footprint shows the trade.

ATAS reads every trade from the exchange feed and builds charts that show volume, delta and liquidity at each price level. You see where activity concentrated, who was aggressive and where orders were left resting. What you do with that information is up to you.

How to read the chart

  • Each column is one bar, here five minutes of trading.
  • Each cell is one price. The first number is sell volume (bid), the second is buy volume (ask).
  • Green means buyers clearly dominated that price. Red means sellers did. Blue means volume was roughly balanced.
  • The yellow outline marks the price with the most volume in the bar.
  • Delta is buy volume minus sell volume for the whole bar.
5-minute bars, sell volume (bid) × buy volume (ask) 5287.50 5287.25 5287.00 5286.75 5286.50 5286.25 5286.00 5285.75 5285.50 5285.25 5285.00 5284.75 5284.50 5284.25 117 × 111 75 × 80 52 × 40 121 × 60 186 × 378 118 × 115 96 × 77 +96 69 × 56 51 × 49 52 × 60 55 × 77 63 × 68 270 × 224 127 × 114 -39 71 × 58 12 × 26 44 × 56 346 × 145 60 × 26 94 × 59 28 × 19 -266 38 × 51 86 × 45 58 × 27 272 × 404 75 × 107 77 × 131 28 × 46 +177 69 × 74 488 × 191 37 × 54 106 × 58 26 × 28 127 × 150 41 × 42 -297 20 × 16 50 × 81 390 × 210 30 × 27 74 × 69 125 × 117 -169 Delta
