Four higher timeframes along the bottom of a light chart, NQ 15m, 1h, 4h and 1D, each with its own countdown and liquidity lines.

Chart pictures are illustrations of the software, not a performance record. Futures trading carries substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor, and hypothetical or simulated results have inherent limitations that may differ materially from live trading. Risk disclosures.

Why you need it

You trade one timeframe. The structure that decides whether your trade works lives on others. DS Parallax puts up to four live higher-timeframe charts on the chart you're executing on — each with its own axis, candles and countdown to close — and marks the one thing that matters most on every one of them: where the resting stops are.

It marks one thing, properly

15m, 1h, 4h and 1D — each with its own axis, candles and countdown to close. You never change your chart's own timeframe.

  1. 01BSL — buy stops resting above an unswept swing high
  2. 02SSL — sell stops resting below an unswept swing low
  3. 03Line weight is the touch count — more tests, more stops sitting beyond it
  4. 04Only live pools are drawn, so what you see still exists

Any market NinjaTrader charts

Price on up to four higher-timeframe series of the same instrument (15m / 1h / 4h / 1D by default). No volume.

Good to know

Run a level and close back inside, and the pool ghosts with a small cross at the sweep — the pattern worth seeing.

DS Universe tools are charting and research software for educational and informational purposes. They are not investment advice and no output is a forecast or a guarantee of any result. Trading futures and other leveraged instruments carries substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor.

Test it on your own charts first.

Four screenshots and a paragraph are not enough to judge an indicator on. Watch it work in your own instrument, on your own timeframe, before it goes anywhere near a live account. Both ways of doing that are free.

  1. 01

    Replay a session you have already seen

    Market Replay runs a past session back tick by tick, at whatever speed you like. You get to watch DS Parallax print in conditions you remember, and pause on the bars where it mattered.

  2. 02

    Then trade it forward, on the simulator

    Replay shows you the past with the ending already known. The simulator does not — it runs live, in real time, on real prices, with nothing at stake. That is where you find out whether you can actually act on what you are seeing.

A simulated fill is not a live fill. Replay and the simulator cannot reproduce real queue position, slippage, or what it feels like to hold a position with money on it, and results from either may differ materially from live trading. Test to learn how a tool behaves — not to estimate what it might return.

DS Parallax, moment by moment

The conditions DS Parallax is built for, drawn by its shipped rules. Scroll and scale it like a chart, replay it bar by bar, jump between its moments, or switch the chart to light.

DS Replay examples are illustrative: each scenario is composed for the example from recorded one-minute futures candles, to show the conditions a tool is built for, and is not a recording of a trading session. The tool drawing on it runs its shipped rules unchanged. They show how the software reads price; they are not a performance record, no trade is taken or shown, and live markets often behave differently. Futures trading carries substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor, and hypothetical or simulated results have inherent limitations that may differ materially from live trading.
