SquawkFlow and FlowAlgo in detail

Checked October 18, 2026: FlowAlgo lists order flow, block and dark-pool data, institutional zones, voice alerts, a chatroom, historical data and Alpha AI signals. AI signals do not establish a market-narration feature.

Its pricing page calls options order flow realtime, but discloses 500ms to 15s latency and equity block data delayed up to 20 minutes. It says dark-pool delivery follows exchange reporting. These are vendor descriptions, not independently measured speeds or a claim of full-tape coverage.

The offer is a paid two-week trial, not a free trial. SquawkFlow has no voice alerts or chatroom; its public tools and terminal open without an account.

Frequently asked questions

What does SquawkFlow cost?

Nothing. Every current SquawkFlow feature is free, there is no paid tier, and there is no account to create because signup is paused. Anonymous use of the public API is capped at 60 requests per hour per IP.

What does FlowAlgo cover that SquawkFlow does not?

FlowAlgo lists an order-flow feed, voice alerts and historical data. SquawkFlow publishes public gamma and market-context tools; its activity scanner is delayed and does not claim a full tape.

Does SquawkFlow have real-time options flow?

No. SquawkFlow runs an unusual options activity scanner over delayed option chains, refreshed each session. It is not a full-market real-time tape, and the comparison table says so.

Where does SquawkFlow dealer gamma come from?

Daily settled open interest crossed with live implied volatility. Dealer positioning is inferred from open interest under the standard convention, not observed: open interest shows that a contract exists, never which side a dealer holds. Every published gamma figure, ours and everyone else’s, carries that assumption.

Can I use SquawkFlow without creating an account?

Yes, and there is no account to create. Signup is paused, so the terminal and the gamma, gamma heatmap, sector rotation, SPX max-pain, options-flow, and VIX term-structure public pages are open to everyone.

How was this comparison verified?

Feature claims about FlowAlgo come from its own public pages, quoted with the URL and the date they were read. Claims in the SquawkFlow column each link to the public SquawkFlow URL that demonstrates them. When a competitor page did not confirm a feature, the table says Unknown rather than treating it as missing.

Sources and methodology

Competitor pages were last read 2026-10-18. Competitor features and cadences come from the linked public pages and are not paraphrased from third-party summaries. “Unknown” means not confirmed on those pages. It does not mean the feature is missing. SquawkFlow is not affiliated with FlowAlgo and uses its name only to identify the product.
