About Chris Knox, Founder
Chris started trading in 2002 and established Zone Trader Pro in 2007 for his personal trading, after buying software that looked good on a Saturday but not when trading. Zone Trader Pro was initially dedicated to repetitive patterns found in market price action.
In 2017, Chris began to develop pattern matching in the order flow and developed his order flow suite. In 2019, he developed tools for detecting actual order size, leading to the creation of 100% unique tools for cumulative delta, divergences, and accumulation/distribution and volume analysis.
Chris also discovered that the divergences found in SPY could be used as a proxy for ES futures. Since 2020, he has developed BloodHound templates to track trading trends based on options trading and the $VIX and $TICK indexes.
