Depends

Should I use FlowAlgo?

Realtime option flow and unusual option activity alerts for retail traders - flowalgo.com

· 1 week ago

Buy if you trade options daily and will act on real-time flow alerts; the two-week trial makes that testable. Skip it if you are a casual or long-term investor, cheaper rivals cover occasional use better.
