Jigsaw's got Peter....... Enough said.....
If you don't know Peter or haven't had a chance to exchange emails or chat with him you probably won't understand the above. From friend to helper to developer to hard worker to great trader to going out of his way to assist and help you @DionysusToast is the real deal. Peter is an innovator.

As a newbie trying to figure out volume profile/order flow trading I can attest to the amazing Jigsaw software and educational resources that Peter Davies has provided. This guy is a gem in the online, retail trading world. Also - as an Elite member at futures. io (which is supported by another rock solid individual in Big Mike) Jigsaw offers a 10% discount on the software. As we say in Canuckland (Vancouver) - you can't beat that with a stick!!
well, the thing is that with purchasing Jigsaw you get so much more than "just" a heatmap. You get the whole package (including the arguably best DOM in the industry, Peter's excellent support etc.) PLUS a heatmap. And all this - considering the futures.io discount - for about a third of the price of Bookmap (Bookmap used to be significantly cheaper in the past, but they had a hefty price increase last winter I think). Moreover, Bookmap seems to be charging extra for just about everything (with a monthly fee of USD 10 per add-on), like e.g. iceberg alerts (which - surprise surprise - come free of charge with Auction Vista ). When comparing both products, keep in mind that Auction Vista is relatively new while Bookmap has been on the market for quite some time; Peter and his team will continuously improve Auction Vista, though.
I actually purchased Jigsaw when Auction Vista was not even available as of yet. And I thought about buying Bookmap to have a heatmap along with the DOM back then (I liked the graphic information as opposed to pure numbers in the DOM; easier to grasp for most people that are beginners in orderflow reading). Glad that I didn't, as now - with Auction Vista - I have a heatmap free of charge, so to speak...
Don't get me wrong: Bookmap seems to be a very good product from what I hear (never used it myself). And from the experience of a trading friend who doesn't have a very good internet connection it seems to cope better with that than Jigsaw/Auction Vista. Plus they have some excellent education on the use of Bookmap for their customers (some of it being available free of charge for everyone).
But anyway, if you consider what you get when purchasing Jigsaw, it is a no-brainer for me...
I hope that Peter will hold a few more webinars and/or produce some more videos on the use of Auction Vista to fill the gap education-wise...
