Overview
FlowAlgo is a high-frequency algorithmic trading platform designed to bridge the data gap between institutional 'smart money' and retail investors. The system operates by ingesting massive datasets from the Options Price Reporting Authority (OPRA) and the Securities Information Processor (SIP), utilizing proprietary filtering algorithms to distinguish between speculative bets and routine hedging. As of 2026, FlowAlgo remains a market leader in the 'Order Flow' niche by providing low-latency alerts for 'Sweeps' and 'Block' trades across all major US exchanges. Its technical architecture focuses on noise reduction—using a multi-step validation process that checks volume against open interest, contract premiums, and historical activity before flagging a transaction. The platform is positioned for traders who require a competitive edge in volatility-driven markets, offering insights into Dark Pool prints (off-exchange equity transactions) that are typically invisible to the general public. Its 2026 iteration includes enhanced AI-driven sentiment analysis, aggregating individual flow points into a cohesive 'Smart Money Sentiment' score for specific tickers, allowing for high-conviction decision-making in intraday and swing trading scenarios.
