Description
Footprint PRO for NinjaTrader 8 lets you see real market control — with bid/ask volume, imbalances, and absorptions shown clearly on the chart.
It highlights key zones, colors buy/sell pressure, and sends Telegram alerts when major activity hits.
You get a delta heatmap, complex delta table, and delta profile to spot where big orders stack up.
Use volume filters to focus only on relevant levels — and group data for volatile assets so you don’t miss key setups.
It’s built for traders who want precision, not guesswork.

Important Note
For historical bid/ask footprint reconstruction, Tick Replay must be enabled in NinjaTrader. Without Tick Replay, historical footprint data may be incomplete until real-time market data starts coming in.
Recommended Use
For best performance, load only the historical bars you need, use Tick Replay when you want historical footprint data, and adjust Tick Grouping or Historical Bars Count depending on your instrument, timeframe and computer performance.
Examples
Price reached a key level and attempted a breakout. However, at the top, we observed heavy buy orders trying to push the price higher – but with no success.
The Footprint chart plots clear absorption at the highs. Price then closed below the POC, and both the Delta Bar and Delta Change are negative – signaling a potential reversal.
