Deterministic by design
The seed is derived from the instrument, exchange, date range, timeframe and requested pattern — the same request always rebuilds the exact same session, for you and for everyone you share it with.
TickForge flagship AI suite
See the chart.
Read the order flow.
AI Lens chart analysis · Shield order-flow intelligence · private screenshot reads · educational insights in seconds.
Two specialist AI tools, built for two different views of the market. Use AI Lens for price structure, patterns and scenarios. Use Shield for liquidity, absorption, imbalance and institutional-trap context. Your images are analysed in memory and never saved.
Educational analysis only, never investment advice. Your screenshot is read in memory and never stored.

Add the Vega extension to Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc or Opera. Capture whatever chart is on your screen and get the same AI Lens technical read or Shield order-flow read — then ask follow-up questions in plain language. Included with every TickForge plan.
Educational chart reading only — Vega never issues trade calls, and nothing you capture is stored.
How it works
- 1Install the extension and connect your TickForge account once.
- 2Open any chart anywhere, click Vega, choose AI Lens or Shield, and scan.
- 3Read the breakdown and chat with Vega about what it saw.
New — AI Lens, the snapshot analyst
Screenshot any chart. Get a full technical read in seconds.
Drop in a screenshot of any chart you are staring at and AI Lens reads it like a senior technician: trend and structure, graded support and resistance, patterns with their measured move, candle signals, momentum and volume — then three scenarios with probabilities and teaching setups with entry, stop, targets and reward-to-risk. Every read is an educational example, never advice.
- Chart vitals at a glance
- Levels graded by touches
- Patterns + measured moves
- Three-scenario probability map
- The playbook: entry, stop, target, R:R
- Under the hood: 7 deep sections
Private by design. Your screenshot is read in memory and dropped with the request — nothing is stored, and nothing is attached to your profile.

Shield · institutional order-flow reader
See the liquidity. Name the trap. Understand the auction.
Shield is the specialist desk for DOM, footprint, delta and volume-profile captures. It maps where size is resting, identifies absorption and imbalance, explains likely trap mechanics, and gives you a checklist for what would confirm or invalidate the read.

The engine
A synthetic market that behaves like the real one
No vendor feed, no waiting on data downloads. The generator models the session itself — and because it is seeded from your request, the chart you shared with a student last month is the same chart they open today.
Calibrated to the real instrument
Each name carries researched volatility, gap behaviour, spread and volume character, and its spot is re-anchored to the real market every weekend, so a Tokyo bank and a US megacap never move alike.
Live-forming candles
Bars build tick by tick — wicking up and down until the bucket closes — while older candles roll left off the screen, exactly like watching an open market.
Market microstructure
Volatility clustering, self-exciting news jumps, widening spreads, block prints, liquidity vacuums and stop-hunt wicks around round numbers, on each exchange's own session curve.
Markets
Practise the instrument you actually trade
Indices and large caps across global markets — each on its own session hours, currency and tick size, with spot anchored near the real market.
Market → asset class → instrument
Choose from markets worldwide, then browse indices, stocks, currencies, digital assets and commodities in one consistent practice workflow.
Each market's own clock
Session length, bar buckets and replay timestamps follow each selected market’s local opening hours, breaks and closing time.
Weekly spot calibration
Spot anchors refresh every Saturday morning once every exchange has closed its week, so charts stay near the real end-of-week close — and identical for every user through the week.
Local currency and locale
Prices, tick sizes and formatting adapt to each selected market’s own currency and number conventions.
Patterns
Marked live, explained on hover
Put the patterns you are drilling on a watchlist and they get outlined the instant they complete. Pin any hit from the live feed to keep it on the chart, hover it for a plain-English note on what the structure signals, or inject a specific pattern and have the engine build a realistic session around it.

Meet Vega — your AI trading coach
A floor-trader brain that draws on your chart
Vega lives in the corner of your terminal. Ask anything in plain language — "show me a bull flag", "why is this head and shoulders invalid?", "walk me through position sizing" — and Vega forges a fresh session, marks the structure, draws the trendlines, zones and Fibonacci levels, and talks you through entry, invalidation and targets step by step. Every explanation is educational, on synthetic data, and never a recommendation to trade.
- Forges a brand-new example every single time — you never memorise one chart
- Drives the terminal for you: instrument, dates, timeframe, replay, patterns
- Draws arrows, frames, zones and Fib grids as a live learning board
- Teaches the boring-but-critical parts: risk per trade, sizing, stops, targets
- Quizzes you back, so you practise reading rather than watching
Vega is an AI educator. It explains chart mechanics on synthetic data and does not give investment, financial or tax advice, signals or recommendations.
Show me a textbook cup and handle and where I'd be wrong.
Vega — Forging a fresh 15m session now. Watch the right rim: I've framed the cup, drawn the handle channel and tagged the breakout level. Your idea dies if price closes back under the handle low — that's your invalidation, and it's what sets the size.
What happens next?
Vega — Extending the session. Two outcomes are on the tape; let's grade your entry against both.
Illustrative conversation. Charts referenced are synthetic, algorithmically generated simulations.
Vega in action
It doesn't just answer — it draws the lesson on the tape
Real captures from a practice session. Every chart below was forged on the spot from synthetic ticks and annotated live by Vega while it talked the setup through.
Structure, framed while it forms
Ask about a range and Vega boxes it, labels the swing highs and lows, and drops the resistance line right where the tape keeps rejecting.
Every pattern comes with the playbook
Shape, entry, stop, target, and the way it fails — pinned next to the marked formation, and draggable so it never hides your chart.
Plain-English answers to hard questions
"Train me on liquidity" gets you why big money needs a stop sweep — not textbook jargon you'll forget by the next candle.
Coaching that runs with the replay
R:R spelled out, the exit called in advance, then Vega tells you exactly what to watch for as the ticks keep printing.
Two entries, one mistake, one challenge
Aggressive versus break-and-retest, the trap that catches everyone, and a question back to you — so you practise reading, not watching.
Screenshots from the TickForge terminal. All charts, prices and volumes are synthetic, algorithmically generated simulations — not real market data, and nothing shown is investment advice.
Strategy simulation
Build a rulebook, then drill it tick by tick
Stack your own AND/OR conditions — price versus EMA, SMA or VWAP, RSI and ATR bands, volume surges, body and wick ratios, crosses, rising and falling streaks — save them to your account, and see every trigger marked on the chart as the replay runs. Then simulate the rulebook with stops, targets, slippage and costs.
- Signal sources: pattern watchlist, indicators or your saved strategy
- Equity curve, drawdown and full trade log
- Reproducible sessions, so rule changes are the only variable
- Simulated results on synthetic data — a training gym, not a historical backtest
