Every print, every side
Thousands of prints a minute, sorted by size, side and price as they happen. Absorption, sweeps, stacked imbalances and exhaustion are spotted the moment they form, not five candles later.
Autonomous order-flow engine · futures
Reads every print. Waits for the one that matters.
Vader watches the live tape the way the best traders do: every print, every size, every side, all session long. When a setup you chose appears, it acts on your rules in milliseconds, with risk guards that never get tired, never get greedy and never look away.

The tape
It sees what charts can't.
Charts show you where price has been. The tape shows you who is pushing it right now. Vader reads it print by print, so you don't have to stare at it for six hours a day.
Every decision cites its evidence
Vader never acts on a hunch. Each entry names the exact tape event behind it, down to the millisecond: "2,140 sold at the bid in 1.8 seconds, absorbed." You can check every one.
Setups that earn their place
New setups start as Learning, then paper-trade on the live tape until they've proven themselves against a bar set in advance. Only setups marked Ready can trade, and only the ones you tick.
Discipline, built in
The trader that never tilts.
Most accounts aren't lost to bad ideas. They're lost to one more trade, one size too big, one minute past the close. Vader makes those mistakes impossible by design.
- The AI proposes, the code disposes. The brain suggests a setup, a direction and a stop. Plain, tested code builds the order, and nothing else can.
- Twelve checks before any new order. Account, instrument, contract cap, daily loss, trailing floor, entries per day, order rate, session cut-offs, stop in place and more. Fail one and nothing is sent.
- Limits set 20% inside your firm's. Vader stops well before your account's own daily-loss and trailing-floor lines, not on them.
- Two doors. Adding risk fails closed if anything at all is missing. Reducing risk is always open, sized to what your broker confirms you hold.
- Respects the clock. Entry, exit and flatten cut-offs follow the exchange calendar, early closes included.
- One kill switch. Hold it and Vader flattens, disconnects and stays off. Turning it back on is always your decision.
The window
A cockpit, not a dashboard.
Vader's window puts you in the pilot's seat. You fly forward through the live order flow. When a setup forms, a target appears. Refused trades break off and fly away. Entries lock on. Exits land on screen the moment your broker confirms them. Under the spectacle, every number is calm, exact and broker-confirmed.
Prefer quiet? One click switches to Minimal: a small panel with your position, your day and a Stop button.

Questions
Straight answers.
The basics
What is Vader, in one sentence?
Vader is desktop software that reads the live futures order flow print by print, waits for the setups you approved, and carries out your rules on your own account inside hard risk limits you set.
Who is Vader for?
Futures traders, including traders on evaluation and funded accounts, who want order-flow precision without staring at the tape all session, and who value discipline as much as opportunity.
Which markets does it read?
US index futures, including the micro contracts.
Do I need to be an order-flow expert?
No. Vader does the reading. You choose the setups, the accounts and the limits. The cockpit shows you what it saw and why it acted, so you learn the tape as you watch.
Safety and control
Is my money safe with Vader?
Vader never touches your money. It is non-custodial: it runs on your own computer and sends orders only to your own brokerage account, within limits you set. We never hold, receive, access or move customer funds.
Can Vader go over my limits?
Every new order passes twelve gateway checks first, including contract caps, daily loss, the trailing floor, entries per day and session cut-offs. Vader's limits sit 20% inside your firm's numbers. If any check fails, or any input is missing, nothing is sent.
How do I stop it?
Press Stop at any time. For an emergency, hold the kill switch: Vader flattens any open position, disconnects and stays off until you choose to start it again.
What happens if my internet or PC drops?
Adding new risk stops first: Vader only opens a position when every input is present and current. Reducing risk is always allowed. Your protective stop rests with your broker, not on your PC, so it stays in place even if your computer goes offline.
Does Vader guarantee profits?
No, and no honest product can. Futures carry real risk of loss. What Vader guarantees is discipline: it only acts on setups you approved, inside limits you chose, and it stops when those limits are reached.
Is this financial advice?
No. Vader is a software tool. It gives no personal advice. You decide which accounts, setups and limits it uses, and you can stop it at any moment.
Setup
What do I need to run Vader?
A Windows PC that stays on during the session, a stable internet connection, a futures account with market data that connects through Rithmic, and your login for it. See the requirements.
How long does setup take?
Five steps: install, connect, choose your accounts and risk level, tick your setups, press Start. The quick start guide walks you through it.
Where is my login stored?
In Windows' own secure credential store, under your user account, on your machine. It is never sent to us and never written to a log.
Can I use Vader on an evaluation account?
Vader was designed around evaluation rules: trailing floors, daily loss limits, contract caps and session cut-offs. Pick your firm's profile and Vader sets its limits inside them. Always check your firm allows automated tools, and follow its rules.
Can I run more than one account?
Yes. Tick each account Vader may use and give each its own firm profile and risk level.
Do I need to watch it all day?
No. That's the point. Leave the cockpit open, switch to Minimal, or turn on phone alerts. Stop is always one button away.
Licence and updates
Is it a subscription?
No. You pay $999 once and get lifetime access to Vader.
Are updates included?
Yes. Free updates for life are included with every licence. New detectors, improvements and fixes arrive as they are released.
How do I get Vader after buying?
Your licence key and download link arrive by email straight after checkout.
