Founder note

We build the NinjaTrader 8 tools we wished existed.

Trader-built, engineer-shipped, one indicator at a time, with lifetime access and zero signals.

  • Launched February 2026
  • 250+ traders running WickLabs
  • Lifetime, never subscription-only

Origin

Eight years into trading crypto, ES, and NQ, my chart was a tower of indicators stacked to cover the gaps no single tool would close. A paid indicator for levels, another for delta, a third for orderflow bubbles, a fourth for volume profile, and the rest still drawn by hand every session before the bell.

Each tool was either bloated with features I never used, or missing the one I actually needed. The good ones cost a subscription, the cheap ones broke on holidays, gap opens, and any session that did not look like a regular Tuesday at 10am. So I did what an engineer does, I started writing my own: a clean key-levels engine with proper multi-timeframe context, a cumulative volume delta with divergence detection that did not lie, an anchored volume profile with floating panels, big-trade bubbles tuned per instrument, and a full orderflow stack for trapped traders, absorption, and surge.

WickLabs is that folder, productized, and priced so a serious trader can actually afford the whole stack.

How we build

We don't sell signals, we build the tools we want on our own charts. Every feature has to earn its place in a real session, on a real chart, before it ships.

  • 01One indicator at a time, shipped slowly on purpose.
  • 02Lifetime access. Buy once, own it. Subscriptions will never be the only option.
  • 03Tested against the conditions that usually break indicators: holiday sessions, opening gaps, illiquid prints, low-volume drift.
  • 04No signals. We will not tell you when to enter or exit.

Who this is for

Futures and crypto traders who read tape, and care about market structure more than the indicator-of-the-week. If your stack is too loud and your chart is too crowded, same here, we built this for that.

If you want a green-arrow box that prints money, this is not it. If you want fewer, sharper, faster tools, from people who actually ship, you are home.

About the founder

Alex founded WickLabs after two decades building production software across the fintech and telecom industries, and eight years trading crypto, ES, and NQ on the side. He is a CTO by day, on the chart every other hour, and still writes a lot of the code that ships. We launched in February, 250+ traders are already running our tools, and we are just getting started.
