What free means here
- No account. Open the address and the chart is live. Nothing to register, verify or log in to.
- No broker or funded account. Swiftedge places no orders, so it is not tied to any broker.
- No download. It runs in any modern browser on Windows, macOS, Linux, a tablet or a phone, and Depth can be installed as an app.
- No time limit and no feature behind a plan. The heatmap, footprint, indicators, Terminal, Positioning and Alerts are free for everyone. The optional Member Club adds extras such as candles of a few seconds; clearly marked sponsor placements pay for the rest.
How it compares with other order flow platforms
Many order flow platforms have a free tier, and most ask for something in return: a desktop install, an account, a single symbol at a time, delayed futures data or a short history. Some are free in the browser too. The best free order flow tools list shows, for each one, what is free, what needs an account or a plan, its markets, strengths and limits, checked on each tool's own site and dated, and the order flow platforms comparison puts the paid platforms side by side with where each one is ahead. Head-to-head pages: Bookmap, ATAS, Exocharts, MMT, DeepCharts and Sierra Chart.
For futures traders: US 500, US 100, gold and oil
Besides crypto, Swiftedge has order flow for US 500, US 100, gold (XAUUSD), silver and WTI crude oil. These are perpetual futures that trade around the clock, at weekends too, so the heatmap has no closing gap. They are not the exchange-listed index, metal and oil futures, and their order books are not those exchanges' books. Use them as a free 24/7 view of order flow in those markets: US 500 order book heatmap, US 500 footprint chart, gold order book heatmap and gold footprint chart.
Where another platform is the better choice
- Exchange-listed futures and stocks. Swiftedge shows perpetual futures only: no CME books, no single stocks, no spot order books.
- Trading from the chart. Swiftedge places no orders and has no DOM to trade from.
- Scripting or a data API. Neither; Depth has 30+ built-in indicators instead. Replay of past sessions is part of the Member Club.
- Hundreds of coins or every venue. Swiftedge draws the books it records for its markets, not every exchange where they trade.
- Years of history. Swiftedge keeps up to 15 days on the chart, the footprint included.
Within those limits everything is free, with no account. The list names the tools that do each of these.
Common questions
Is there a free order flow platform?
Yes. Swiftedge is free in the browser with no account, no broker and no download: the live order book heatmap, every trade, a footprint chart, CVD, volume profile and 30+ indicators, a 16-panel Terminal and Alerts. Other platforms with free tiers and their limits are on the best free order flow tools list.
Do I need an account, a broker or a download?
No. Open swiftedge.uk/depth and the chart is live. Swiftedge places no orders, so no broker account is involved, and it runs in the browser, so there is nothing to install.
Is there a free orderflow platform for futures?
For US 500, US 100, gold, silver and WTI crude oil, Swiftedge shows the order flow of perpetual futures that trade around the clock, free. It does not show the exchange-listed futures' own order books; for those you need a platform with a futures data feed, and most of them charge for live data.
Can I trade from Swiftedge?
No. Swiftedge shows the order book and the trades; it places no orders and has no trading DOM.
Does it work on a Mac or a phone?
Yes. It runs in any modern browser on Windows, macOS and Linux. Depth has a phone layout and can be installed as an app.
Which data does Swiftedge use?
Public perpetual futures data from Hyperliquid and Lighter: the order book and every trade with its aggressor side. Everything shown is Swiftedge's own calculation; the FAQ lists the sources.
Is order flow a trading signal?
No. Order flow describes what is resting and what traded. Swiftedge shows it for information and education; it is not a signal, a forecast or financial advice.
