FlowMaster™ Enigma

Next-Level Real Time Order Flow Analysis (RTOFA)

Last updated 4 hours ago

The AlgoBox™ FlowMaster™ Enigma is a powerful, proprietary algorithm that analyzes order flow data in real-time. It's a cornerstone of many traders' strategies, providing invaluable insights into market dynamics.

Power Level

The Enigma includes an option to show it's power level at the time of appearance.

Knowing the power of the Enigma signal can assist in filtering signals appropriate to your own style of trading.

The Enigma's power level is derived from the proprietary AlgoBox™ algorithmic code.

The suggested stop loss placement is behind the back of the FlowMaster™ Enigma.

The ideal FlowMaster™ Enigma power level number is 20.

Automatically Plotted Targets

The AlgoBox™ FlowMaster™ Enigma can automatically plot ideal target lines to make your analysis easier.

Enigma Target ("et")


Enigma MACVU Filtering

Use MACVU Filtering to focus on Enigmas that match the current market trend. This helps you identify the most relevant trading opportunities.


Confluence Level

The FlowMaster™ Enigma can be configured to different levels of confluence. The higher the number, the higher the amount of confluence you are demanding the indicator to use, which means there could be less signals appearing on L4 as opposed to L1 (see videos below).

The original FlowMaster™ Enigma setting was Level 2 Confluence.


FlowMaster™ Enigma Settings

1. Audio

The audio alerts you once a FlowMaster™ Enigma is plotted on the chart. You can customize these alerts by changing the audio to a preferred voice or sound, or turn them off entirely.

Sound Alert: Receive sound alerts when a FlowMaster™ Enigma is detected on the chart, with the option to add your own custom sound.

AlgoVoice: You can enable or disable real-time audio alerts as per your preference.

Voice Rate: You can customize the speed of the AlgoVoice alerts to your preference.

All custom sounds must be in .wav file format only.

2. Calculations

Allows you to control how frequently the FlowMaster™ Enigma indicator recalculates. The Calculation sets the frequency of these calculation cycles. Customization allows for greater control over data update rates.

Calc Override: Default setting is unchecked. Check this setting to customize and utilize Calc Interval.

Calc Interval: Set your custom desired calculation interval. The smaller the number, the more frequently the indicator will recalculate, which increases processing load on your system's CPU. The default setting of 1000 is in milliseconds, which is equal to 1 second. If you wanted the FlowMaster™ Enigma to calculate every half second (twice as fast as default 1000ms), then you would enter 500 in this field.

3. Custom Settings

Confluence Levels: Adjust the strength of the FlowMaster™ Enigma confluence levels between L1, L2, L3, and L4 to suit your needs.

4. Filtering

MACVU Filtering: This feature allows you to filter enigmas based on the strength levels of the MACV Ultimate.

Color Code: This feature allows you to filter enigmas based on the color of the MACV Ultimate.

Power Number: This feature enables the display of the FlowMaster™ Enigma’s power number.

Power Number Font: This setting allows you to customize the font of the FlowMaster™ Enigma’s power number.

Power Number Color: This setting allows you to select the color for displaying the power number of the FlowMaster™ Enigma.

5. Optics

Show Enigma Target: Toggle this setting ON or OFF to display or hide the target line when an Enigma is plotted.

Enigma Target: Customize the Enigma Target line according to your preferred tick value, with the default setting at 20 ticks.

6. Data Series

Displays the current chart instrument, contract date and configurations applied.

Input Series: This setting determines which chart the indicator is displayed on, linking the indicator to the selected chart data.

7. Setup

Allows you to add a label, set the maximum bars to look back, and configure calculations based On Price Change, On Bar Close, or On Each Tick.

On Price Change: Updates the indicator only when there is a change in the instrument's price.

On Bar Close: Updates whenever a new bar closes, recalculating based on the finalized bar data to reflect the latest market conditions and changes in trends. Be mindful of whether you are using AlgoBars or range bars. This is the default setting for this indicator.

On Each Tick: Updates with every price change or tick in the market, providing real-time adjustments and reflecting the most current data. This setting increases CPU processing load.

8. Visual

Allows you to customize button colors, adjust the button placement, and modify the font type and size to suit your preferences. The Visual Settings shown are default settings which usually do not need to be changed unless specified in release notes or instructional video, live stream or on Discord etc. Auto scale is recommended to be unchecked.

Auto Scale: Automatically adjusts the indicator’s scale to fit within the chart’s price axis, ensuring it’s properly visible without manual adjustments.

Displacement: Shifts the indicator's plot forward or backward on the time axis. This setting is useful for aligning the indicator with price bars or other chart elements, especially in cases where you want to visualize future or past data relative to the current price.

Display in Data Box: Determines whether the values are shown in the Data Box, which is an on-screen display that provides detailed information about the current values when you hover over or click on the chart.

Panel: Specifies which panel or sub-panel the indicator is displayed in on the chart. Indicators can be placed in separate panels above or below the main price chart, allowing for organized and uncluttered visualization of multiple indicators.

Price Markers: Controls the display of markers or symbols on the price axis associated with the indicator's values. This setting helps highlight specific price levels or events directly on the price chart for better visibility and analysis.

Scale Justification: Determines where the indicator is positioned on the price scale, such as to the right or left side of the chart.

Visible: Toggles the overall visibility of the indicator, allowing you to hide or show it on the chart as needed.

All settings displayed in the settings image are the current default configurations provided by NinjaTrader and/or the AlgoBox™ Pro software, and may change at any time in future software updates without notice.
