Platform Overview
Breakdown by Platform
Volumetrica
Volumetrica is the order flow and volume analysis suite that BluSky offers as its own dedicated route, delivered through brokerage partner Sweet Futures. On Sim Funded accounts the Volumetrica route lets you set your own daily loss limit, which is unusual and useful if you want a hard stop the platform enforces for you.
VolSys and DeepChart
VolSys, also branded DeepChart, is the charting front end in the Volumetrica family and is available on both the Volumetrica and the Rithmic route.
VolBook and Deepdom
VolBook, also branded Deepdom, is the depth-of-market and order book component, again available on both the Volumetrica and Rithmic routes.
R Trader Pro
R Trader Pro is Rithmic own platform. BluSky notes a practical trick with it: you can monitor your minimum trailing balance in real time using the Auto Liquidate Threshold Value field, which is the closest thing to a live drawdown readout inside the platform.
NinjaTrader
NinjaTrader is supported on the Rithmic route for Evaluation, BluLive and Sim Funded accounts, and separately as NinjaTrader Prop on the Tradovate route. Note the restriction: on Rithmic it is not offered at every stage.
Tradovate Prop
Tradovate Prop is the native platform on the Tradovate route. BluSky points out that you can watch your minimum trailing balance live using the Drawdown Auto Liq column in the Accounts tab, and that on Tradovate contract scaling is allowed with available margin.
TradingView
TradingView is available on the Tradovate route, giving you the charting interface most traders already know connected to a BluSky account.
Quantower
Quantower is the modern multi-asset terminal with strong depth-of-market tooling.
Sierra Chart
Sierra Chart is the fast, highly customisable charting and execution package.
ATAS
ATAS is the dedicated order flow platform built around footprint charts and cluster analysis.
MotiveWave
MotiveWave is a comprehensive analysis suite, best known for its Elliott Wave tooling.
Bookmap
Bookmap visualises full order book liquidity over time and is one of the few platforms BluSky supports on both the Rithmic and the Tradovate route.
Jigsaw
Jigsaw centres on order flow execution and depth-of-market reading, and like Bookmap it is available on both routes.
Tradesea
Tradesea is one of the Rithmic-compatible front ends BluSky lists as supported.
Most other Rithmic platforms
Beyond the named list, BluSky states that most other Rithmic platforms will connect. If yours is not listed, the BluSky Support Desk will confirm before you buy.
Final Comments
The route matters for more than platform choice. On Volumetrica in the Sim Funded stage you set your own daily loss limit, on Tradovate contract scaling is allowed against available margin, and on Rithmic there is no scaling. Pick the route that matches how you intend to size up, not just the platform you like the look of.
