Getting started with DeepCharts and DeepDom: the beginner course
What this course teaches you, and in what order
This course has a single goal: by the end, you have a DeepCharts and DeepDom workstation that is installed, connected, set up and protected, on which you can practise in simulation without losing a session hunting for why a chart stays empty. It is the companion of the course “Order flow basics”: the first explains what you read, this one installs the tool that lets you read it.
An order flow platform is no harder than any other, but it asks more of the machine, of the data feed and of the trader. Three different sets of credentials come into play in the first ten minutes, a single forgotten box leaves a chart without data, and a misunderstood default setting can send a market order on a right click. The course takes these traps one by one, in the order you will meet them.
The program
- Getting started: what DeepChart, DeepDom and DeepGamma do, and what you need before installing.
- Install and connect: installation, the license, the data feed, prop firm accounts, DeepDom and the simulation account.
- The DeepChart interface: the first chart, indicators, templates and workspaces.
- Setting up the order flow tools: the footprint, large orders, delta, profiles and the pace of the tape.
- DeepDom: the screen, the bubbles and the order book indicators.
- Trading from the platform: the trading panel, OCO orders, the Chart DOM, order tracking.
- Risk and tracking: the Risk Manager, the Strategy Report and the Trade Copier.
- Maintenance and routine: diagnostics, the database, common breakdowns, replay and the workstation checklist.
How to follow this course
Do it in front of the platform. Every lesson describes real windows, with their captures: open the same window and set it up as you read. Menu and field names are given as they appear on screen, in English, because that is how you will find them. The site's detailed tutorials remain the field by field reference; the course puts them in the right order and explains why each setting matters.
If you are also following the course on order flow basics, the right pace is simple: modules 1 and 2 of this one alongside the first three modules of the basics, then the rest of this course before module 4 of the basics, the one where you start watching the market live.
Reminder: educational material, not investment advice. Everything that follows is tested first on a simulation account.
