FAQ & Contact us

If you have questions about the SD Zones indicator, about this website, or about supply and demand trading in general, you are more than welcome to send us an email using the form below. We are all traders and we love hearing from other traders.

How do I get SD Zones?

SD Zones is provided on a subscription basis through our authorized distributor, The Daily Market Forecast. Visit the Get SD Zones page for details.

After signing up, you will receive a Welcome Email containing a unique Activation Code and link to the SD Zones Membership page containing the software, workspaces, documentation and the full library of training videos. You enter the activation code the first time you run SD Zones.

The Welcome Email also has Quick Installation steps, Getting Started tips and contact information. You even get the direct phone number to the developer for urgent support requests.

The sign-up page may be inactive during times when we are closed for new subscribers. Check back later in that case, or send us an email using the form below to get on our waiting list.

What if I don't have TradeStation?

SD Zones is an extremely feature-rich package of 10 indicators and 20 workspaces developed specifically for the TradeStation platform to take advantage of its capabilities.

While other platforms have their own scripting languages, they generally lack the depth and performance of TradeStation's compiled EasyLanguage, which SD Zones needs for all its features.

Traders on thinkorswim, TradingView, Interactive Brokers, NinjaTrader, MetaTrader and other platforms regularly open TradeStation accounts to be able to utilize SD Zones, even if they trade their setups elsewhere.

Think of it as a standalone screener or scanner: SD Zones is used to find and qualify setups across a large universe of symbols. Once you have a qualified setup, you can trade it anywhere.

Funded TradeStation TS SELECT accounts have no platform or data fees. You don't need to master the full TradeStation platform to use SD Zones.

Do you have stats to back up your claims?

Absolutely. We have what we believe are some of the most extensive performance stats of any supply/demand indicator, trading over 1.2M zones in 7 commonly traded ETFs and 18 futures markets going back 20 years. And we are not afraid to share the raw numbers. Each set of stats is updated approximately every 12 months.

In addition to showing the performance of SD Zones (our software), these stats also demonstrate the validity of supply and demand zones (the methodology) when used to trade common ETFs such as the SPY, QQQ, DIA, IWM, SOXX, FAS and GLD or futures such as ES, NQ, YM, RTY, TY, US, CL, NG, GC, SI, HG, PL, EC, BP, JY, AD, CD and SF. Again, the raw stats can be found here.

Why don't all traders use this?

Because we don't want it to be a mass market service, for obvious reasons. We don't advertise, we only just launched this website in 2026, and we only allow sign-ups when we actively seek new subscribers.

SD Zones was developed in 2017-2018 for the developer's personal trading, not as a software business. It was later shared with a small group of traders, freely for five years, before subscriptions were introduced in 2023 to control its spread and support its continued sharing with the group. We want just enough traders to pitch in to its development, and no more. Read about us.

But also, SD Zones isn't for everyone even if they could get it: Every trader has to find the strategy and trading style that resonates with their personality, risk tolerance and patience level, and fits their account size and experience level. The notion that there is an "ideal strategy" for everybody is a fallacy.

Can I have a free trial?

We do not offer free trials. New subscriptions are refundable within the first month, so essentially risk-free.

Over the years, we have seen several attempts at hacking and stealing the SD Zones software, including by entrepreneurs who tried to sell it on their own and by competitors who wanted to clone our detection engine. Thus, we now require a name, valid email address and credit card before sharing our code and workspaces.

Can I share the software with others?

Each subscription license covers any number of TradeStation accounts, any number of computers, and even multiple users — such as family members — as long as they use the same TradeStation login. Traders who own two TradeStation logins in the same name are supported upon request.

Other traders using other TradeStation logins need their own SD Zones subscriptions.

The license is limited to "normal usage", including modifying the workspaces to your needs and customizing SD Zones through its extensive settings. It specifically prohibits unlocking, decrypting, decoding, decompiling or modifying the software or sharing it with any other parties.

What are your credentials?

SD Zones was developed by a veteran supply/demand trader who has used the S/D methodology as their primary strategy since 2009 and helped many other traders master it, including some who spent years and small fortunes trying to learn it elsewhere. See the developer's background and history.

The developer is not a licensed or registered financial advisor, wealth manager, fund manager, commodity trading advisor (CTA), or broker-dealer. They merely provide tools developed for their own trading, and information they found to be working in the past.

All traders are responsible for their own trades.
