Information

Order flow and footprint chart toolkit for MT5 / MT4 traders, designed to expose hidden buyer / seller pressure at every price level. The project visualizes bid-ask volume imbalance, delta clusters, absorption zones, and aggressive market participation in real time, giving discretionary and algorithmic traders a microstructure-level view of price action.

🦶 FlowFootprint MT5/MT4

Real-time footprint chart engine with bid / ask volume clustering, delta heatmaps, and absorption detection for serious order flow traders.

Why Order Flow?

Candles tell you what happened. Footprint charts tell you who did it and how hard they pushed.

This project reveals:

• Aggressive buyers vs sellers per price level
• Delta exhaustion and absorption
• Where liquidity actually got eaten

What It Does

FlowFootprint MT5/MT4 rebuilds market microstructure from streaming tick data and renders it as a footprint visual.

Module	Description
Tick Aggregator	Groups ticks into price-level buckets
Delta Engine	Computes bid vs ask volume per cell
Cluster Renderer	Draws colored footprint cells
Absorption Scanner	Detects volume soaks at extremes
Imbalance Alerts	Highlights stacked bid / ask imbalances
Session Stats	Tracks cumulative delta and POC

---

Features

Feature	Description
Footprint Cells	Bid x Ask volume per price level
Delta Heatmap	Green / red intensity gradient
Imbalance Stacks	3+ stacked diagonal imbalances
Cumulative Delta	Running delta line below chart
POC Marker	Point of Control highlighted
Value Area	70 percent volume zone shaded
MT4 / MT5 Support	Platform selection system
Tick Size Control	1 / 5 / 10 / 20 tick aggregation
Symbol Selector	Any tick-streaming pair
Replay Mode	Step through historical flow

Interface Logic

PRICE   BID  x  ASK   DELTA
1.0852  [ 12 |  48 ]   +36
1.0851  [ 33 |  41 ]   +8
1.0850  [ 78 |  22 ]   -56   <- absorption

• Green cell = ask-side aggression
• Red cell = bid-side aggression
• Yellow border = imbalance stack
• Bold = absorption candidate

---

Roadmap

• Tick aggregation
• Footprint rendering
• Delta engine
• Real MT5 tick bridge
• Volume profile overlay
• Multi-symbol tabs
• Export to CSV / replay file
