Data

Where chart data comes from, which markets support order flow, and history limits by plan.

View as Markdown

Charts use LuxAlgo market data: candles plus a live stream, delivered by one provider that sits in front of several venues. You don't connect exchange accounts or API keys.

Crypto, US equities (including ETFs), forex, and commodities are on every plan, including Free. Live CME futures data is included with every paid plan (Essential, Premium, Ultimate, and AI Ultra). Without an account, charts load crypto and US equities; sign in (a Free account is enough) for forex and commodities.

There are two kinds of data behind the chart, and they matter for which tools run where:

  • Candles: OHLC and volume per bar. Every market has them, and everything candle-based (chart types, most indicators, TPO, VWAP, Visible Range Volume Profile) works everywhere.
  • Footprints: 1-minute slices of volume-at-price and per-side trade counts. Only some venues provide them, and only the tools that need them are restricted. A footprint is not a trade tape or an order book; it's a pre-aggregated summary of executed volume at each price.

What runs where

Order Flow tools that need footprints run on crypto, US equities, and CME futures. On forex and commodities those tools warn instead of silently drawing a blank series, so a missing plot always has an explanation.

Three order-flow-family tools are exceptions because they're computed from candles: TPO, VWAP, and the Visible Range Volume Profile work on every market.

Sessions

Where a symbol has a trading calendar (US equities, for example), the bottom bar can switch between:

  • RTH: regular trading hours, the main session only.
  • ETH: extended trading hours, including pre-market and after-hours activity.

The choice affects what the chart shows and therefore everything computed from it. Session-based tools like TPO read differently on RTH vs ETH.

History limits

How much history a chart can load depends on your plan, measured in bars (so a lower timeframe covers less calendar time):

PlanBars of history
Free5,000
Essential10,000
Premium20,000
Ultimate30,000
AI Ultra50,000

The OHLCV archive reaches back up to 16 years, depending on the symbol and available data. This is separate from the number of bars a chart can load at once.

Orderflow lookback has its own, separate limits by plan. See the note in Order Flow.
