This week’s Trade Pulse example features Strategy, the Bitcoin-holding company formerly known as MicroStrategy and trading under the ticker MSTR, with Jim Batchelder walking through live, same-day platform data rather than a prior session’s recap. He opens with the show’s standard framing, that Trade Pulse exists to give active traders a real-time edge by surfacing institutional and retail order flow data as it happens, plus the platform’s proprietary Power Inflow signal for spotting meaningful shifts before they’re fully reflected in price.
As always, Jim runs through the chart’s core elements before getting into specifics: the white line as live stock price, green shading representing momentum flow and retail sentiment (with red shading appearing when selling pressure dominates instead), the vertical green bar marking a Power Inflow signal, and the light blue institutional large deal flow line capturing orders of $100,000 or more. For MSTR specifically, he notes the stock opened around 130 to 132 and stayed there through the first half hour of trading, with momentum shading and large deal flow both essentially flat, showing all-around low conviction in either direction early in the session.
The turn comes just before 10:00 a.m. Eastern, when the Power Inflow signal fires around the 131 level. Jim walks through the shift as it unfolds: momentum shading, the green shade specifically, ticks up steadily following the signal, showing increasing retail buying pressure, while the large deal line shows a clear and sustained ascent through the rest of the session. MSTR’s price follows suit, climbing steadily from around 131 at the time of the signal to an intraday high touching roughly 140, a move of about 7% achieved over a couple of hours. Jim frames this, consistent with every other episode in the series, as a demonstration of how institutional-sized order flow tends to precede and then track alongside meaningful price moves, which is the entire premise behind flagging these shifts through the Power Inflow signal as they happen rather than after the fact.
Because this episode focuses more tightly on the single-stock walkthrough, Jim spends comparatively less time on the platform’s other sections than in some earlier episodes, though he does reference that the same Power Inflows list, Top Flows ranking, sortable Market Board, and Sector Flows breakdown remain available for anyone wanting a broader, more sustained view of the day’s order flow beyond a single name.
He closes the episode with the standard Trade Pulse sign-off, thanking the audience for joining another week and describing the partnership behind the show, before pointing viewers to tradepulse.net with any questions about the data or platform, and reiterating the standing 14-day free trial along with 30% off the first month for anyone who subscribes to a paid package afterward.
