# imbalance: full description > imbalance is an advanced trading terminal for Delta Exchange India. Traders connect their own Delta account and trade crypto futures, options and stock tokens from charts that show order flow (order blocks, fair value gaps, footprint, cumulative volume delta, absorption), a screener across every Delta perpetual, a sector map, an options chain with Greeks and a strategy builder, alerts, an AI copilot and a journal. Every order goes to the trader's own Delta account after an on-screen confirmation, with loss limits held on the server. A paper mode with ₹10,00,000 of virtual capital fills like Delta, for rehearsing a setup before taking it live. Run by QNTMHRZN Analytics and Technologies, Dehradun, Uttarakhand, India. Not affiliated with Delta Exchange. ## Live trading on Delta Exchange India - The trader creates an API key on Delta Exchange India with trading permission and no withdrawal permission, restricted to the IP address imbalance shows (a relay server imbalance operates). The secret is encrypted at rest and never shown again. - Two-factor authentication on the imbalance account is required before a key can be used, and sensitive actions ask for a fresh check. - Every order shows a confirmation sheet before it is sent, unless the trader turns on one-click trading. Orders, positions, bracket take-profit and stop-loss, margin mode (isolated, cross, portfolio), leverage and subaccounts are Delta's own, read and written through Delta's API. - Loss limits (daily loss, losing streak, trades per day) are worked out from Delta's own fills and enforced on the server, so a locked trader cannot place an order from imbalance until the lock lifts. - Portfolio risk comes from Delta's figures. imbalance never holds funds and cannot withdraw. - Copy trading between live accounts is opt-in on both sides, with ratio, lot and leverage caps. - Delta Exchange India's maintenance and status are shown in the app as they happen. ## Analytics and indicators - **Imbalance Map:** order blocks, fair value gaps and balanced price ranges, liquidity pools and swing structure, drawn on the chart with adjustable swing length. - **Order flow:** a live footprint (sell × buy volume at each price in each bar), cumulative volume delta, a depth heatmap of the order book over time, volume at price, and absorption (iceberg) markers where large passive orders soak up aggression. - **Open interest:** OI by strike on the price chart, support and resistance from options OI (S1/S2, R1/R2) and fresh build-ups. - **Classic indicators:** moving averages and MA cross, triple EMA ribbon, VWAP, Supertrend, Ichimoku, Parabolic SAR, ADX/DMI, MACD, RSI, Stochastic, Stoch RSI, CCI, Williams %R, ATR, Bollinger Bands, Keltner and Donchian channels, OBV, Money Flow Index and Chaikin Money Flow, each with editable parameters. - **Chart types and tools:** candles, hollow candles, Heikin-Ashi, bars, line and area; drawings (trend lines, rays, horizontal and vertical lines, rectangles, Fibonacci, long and short position tools, and text); chart trading with draggable orders; bar replay; multi-chart layouts. - **Stock tokens and gold:** session shading for US market hours, the gap against the last US close, the perp's premium to Delta's index, and gold in rupees per 10 grams. - **AI:** a chart copilot that reads the current chart, a "decode this" explainer for any board, a second opinion before an order, and the hourly brief. Answers are grounded in the live data on screen. Each account has a daily allowance of AI requests. ## Screener and market map - The screener ranks every Delta Exchange India perpetual by move over 1h, 4h and 24h, funding, open interest change, basis and the Imbalance score, on cards with their own candles. Screens can be written in a small expression language or asked in plain English, saved, and turned into alerts. - Market X-Ray groups the board by Delta's sector tags with breadth, leaders and laggards, a rotation map, a risk-on/risk-off gauge, a turnover heatmap and order-block setups. ## Options Chains for BTC, ETH and XAUT with live Greeks, IV, OI and OI change, PCR, max pain, GEX, the IV smile and an expiry-day view; a strategy builder with templates (spreads, straddles, strangles, condors, butterflies, ratios), futures hedge legs and delta hedging, the payoff at expiry and today, breakevens and net Greeks; and chain replay through a past session. ## Alerts and notifications Alerts on price, indicators, Imbalance Map zones, funding, open interest and saved screens, checked by the engine on every Delta tick and delivered in the app, by Web Push and by Telegram, with the browser closed. ## Journal Trades rebuilt from fills (live from Delta, or paper): P&L calendar in IST, equity curve, win rate, expectancy, profit factor, drawdown, fees with GST and funding paid, breakdowns by market, weekday and hour, notes, tags and ratings per trade, CSV export, and a tax estimate labelled as an estimate to verify with a chartered accountant. ## Paper mode (add-on) For rehearsing a setup, each account has a paper mode with ₹10,00,000 of virtual capital. Its engine follows Delta Exchange India's rules: market orders walk the live order book, limit orders fill when trades print through them, stops trigger on Delta's mark price, fees include 18% GST, funding is charged at Delta's rates, and positions liquidate at Delta's maintenance margin. Paper results have no cash value. ## Community and seasons Ideas lock their plan at publishing and are scored by the platform on mark price; traders follow each other, comment and copy paper trades. A season runs each calendar month: the paper account is ranked on its isolated trades up to 25×, live traders can opt in and are shown in percentages only, and badges reward finishing, improving and placing. There are no prizes. ## Data and timing Market data comes from Delta Exchange India's public API and WebSocket through one shared connection.
