The vocabulary
Each card names one idea, shows it, and says what it does not mean.
Three engines watch the same market from three angles — what traded, where value sat, and where the size is. OFCoPilot reads all three and gives you one scored verdict.
The footprint. Bid against ask at every single price, on every bar.
Volume profile and a real TPO letter profile, side by side.
The liquidity map — resting size, before it trades.
Each engine publishes what it sees. OFCoPilot reads all three together and produces one scored call — direction, grade, entry, stop and target — and shows every piece of evidence that went into it, so you can argue with it line by line.
All three ship today. The web terminal at app.tapeowl.com reads what the engines publish and draws it in a browser — including on a phone.
You bring your own NinjaTrader 8 and a data feed that carries bid/ask ticks. Nothing here replaces your platform or touches your orders.
Import the add-on in NinjaTrader, restart, and add the indicator to a chart.
Leave the licence field empty and it runs free for seven days. No card, no account.
The panel says what it sees in plain words — what to do, where the stop goes, what would kill the trade.
Switch publishing on and the same session opens in a browser, or on your phone.
50 short animations, in three parts: the vocabulary, the ten-part series, and how our own engines work inside. No jargon before the thing it names, and every figure from our logs shown with its sample size. Free, no sign-up.
Education only, and nothing here is advice. The numbered chart examples are illustrations; anything drawn from our session logs says so on screen.
One term, sixteen seconds, a plain definition and the thing it is not. Start here if any of the words below are new.
Each card names one idea, shows it, and says what it does not mean.
Ten episodes, built in order. Each one only uses what the ones before it established.
Limit and market orders, the spread, and the one mechanism underneath everything else.
How a trade gets labelled buy or sell — and what it costs you when that label is a guess.
A bar built trade by trade, then the same bar as a candle.
Why the comparison is diagonal, what the ratio and the volume floor actually do, and why stacking matters.
Point of control, value area, and the difference between a thick price and a thin one.
One subtraction, the trap everybody falls into, and what our own delta token was worth.
Heavy volume that does not move price, the order being refilled behind it, and why location decides.
Thin at an extreme, the unfinished auction, and how to tell it from absorption.
Where stops sit, the tell that separates a run from a break, and which levels held in our logs.
How a grade is built, and what two real sessions of our own logs actually did — losses included.
How TapeOwl’s own detectors actually work — the thresholds, the confirmations, and the limits. Drawn from the manuals, not the marketing.
What each engine measures, and what it refuses to claim.
A lifetime NinjaTrader licence. You bring your own NT8 and data feed, and never pay software rent.
Every engine runs a free 7-day trial before you pay anything. Already bought? Download · manage your licence. Prop firms and educators: talk to us.
This is a category full of overpromising. We would rather you hear the limits from us than find them in week two.
It shows you what the order book is doing. The decision and the risk are yours. No signals to follow blindly, no promised outcome.
We do not publish one and we never will. The grades describe how much evidence stacked up, not how often it works.
And it is not planned to. TapeOwl reads the tape; your platform places the trade.
Order flow is only as good as the bid/ask ticks your provider sends. If the feed has gaps, the read has gaps.
On thin instruments and quiet hours the cells go sparse and the read gets noisy. The value is in liquid NIFTY hours.
We read an option contract's own tape. We do not model Greeks, IV or gamma.
