# How Much Does ATAS Cost? Plans, Pricing, and What Each Includes > ATAS pricing in 2026: the four plans (START, PLUS, PRO, ULTRA), monthly and annual costs, lifetime purchase options, and the real cost of the data feed. - Canonical: https://traderprofesional.com/en/atas-pricing/ - Site: Trader Profesional (https://traderprofesional.com) — order flow trading - Language: en - Published: 2026-08-17 --- The short answer: [ATAS](https://atas.net/) has a very limited free tier and three paid plans running from €19.95 to €89.95 a month depending on the tier and how long you commit, plus one-time purchase options. But the number on the pricing page is not what actually matters. What matters is which plan gives you real-time futures data, because without it you are not reading footprint, you are looking at a demo. Here are the four plans one by one, and where the jump that's worth paying for actually sits. ## ATAS plans, one by one ATAS breaks its [official pricing](https://atas.net/) into four tiers, priced in euros regardless of where you trade from, so the figures below are the official euro amounts, not a currency conversion. Cost per month drops the longer you commit: monthly, 3-month, or annual billing. | Plan | Monthly | Annual (per month) | What it adds | |---|---|---|---| | START | €0 | Always free | 2 assets, 3 indicators per chart, standard frames, market replay | | PLUS | €24.95 | €19.95 | 6 assets, 6 indicators, Range/Renko/Reversal frames, 7-day Big Trades history | | PRO | €69.95 | €39.95 | 20 assets, 12 indicators, all custom frame types, **real-time futures data**, 3 exchange connections | | ULTRA | €89.95 | €49.95 | Unlimited assets and indicators, unlimited connections, MBO Bundle included, options analysis tools | 3-month billing lands between the two extremes (€23.95 on PLUS, €59.95 on PRO, €79.95 on ULTRA), so the real discount only shows up once you commit for a full year. ## Which plan you actually need to read footprint Here's the catch with START and PLUS: neither one lists real-time futures data as a feature of its own. You can open a footprint chart, but without that data the chart doesn't separate buy aggression from sell aggression reliably enough to trade [imbalances](/en/order-flow-imbalances/) or [absorption](/en/absorption-trading/). That feature shows up explicitly starting at **PRO**, which is where ATAS stops being a demo and starts being an order flow tool you can actually trade with. If you just want to get familiar with the interface or practice with [market replay](/en/market-replay-practice/), START or PLUS is enough. If you're going to trade [futures](/en/order-flow-futures/) on live data, PRO is the reasonable floor. ULTRA mostly adds capacity (unlimited assets and connections) plus the MBO bundle, useful if you run several markets or accounts at once, but it doesn't change the quality of the base data PRO already gives you. Worth knowing if you're weighing ULTRA specifically: ATAS currently bundles the MBO add-on into that plan at no extra cost only through November 27, 2026, after which it's expected to become a separate line item, so check the official pricing page for the current status before assuming it's still included. Another difference that shows up with use: how much Big Trades history (the large volume block log) each plan keeps. All three paid tiers currently ship 7 days of history alike, though ATAS has announced expanding that window to 30 days on PRO and 90 on ULTRA down the line. If your routine depends on reviewing [big prints](/en/big-prints-footprint/) from past sessions to prep the next day, that history window matters almost as much as the live data itself. ## Lifetime purchase vs. subscription ATAS also sells each paid plan as a one-time purchase, no recurring fee: PLUS for €999, PRO for €1,799, and ULTRA for €1,999. Compared to that same plan's monthly fee, the lifetime option pays for itself in a bit over two years (€1,799 divided by €69.95/month is roughly 25-26 months of PRO billed monthly). If you know you'll keep using ATAS past that point, lifetime works out cheaper long-term. If you're still deciding whether the platform fits your trading, start with monthly or quarterly and move to lifetime once you're sure. ## The cost the plan page doesn't show: the data feed None of the four plans includes the futures data feed. The real-time data that PRO adds arrives through an external connection, typically [Rithmic](https://rithmic.com/) or [CQG](https://www.cqg.com/), which you subscribe to and pay for separately from the ATAS license. ULTRA's MBO Bundle, for instance, only works when connected via Rithmic. This is the same pattern you run into with [other order flow platforms](/en/best-order-flow-platforms/): the software price is only half the bill. If you're comparing costs across tools, [futures market data feeds](/en/futures-market-data-feeds/) breaks down which feeds exist and what they cost separately. ## Free trial and refund ATAS offers a 14-day free trial on paid plans, once per user, and a 100% refund if you decide it's not for you within 14 days of your first payment. That's enough room to test PRO on real data before committing to a year or to lifetime. ## ATAS against other pricing options If you're weighing ATAS against something cheaper, the direct comparison lives in [ClusterDelta vs ATAS](/en/clusterdelta-vs-atas/), where ClusterDelta covers footprint and delta without the same separate data feed overhead. And if what you're after is a full alternative to ATAS, not just the price, [ATAS alternatives](/en/atas-alternatives/) compares the rest of the platforms on the market. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Is ATAS's free version good enough to trade order flow? It's good enough to get familiar with the interface and practice with market replay, but the START plan doesn't ship real-time futures data, so you won't read footprint reliably enough to trade live. That needs at least the PRO plan. ### Why does ATAS PRO cost so much more than PLUS? Because PRO is the first plan that includes real-time futures data, on top of more assets, more indicators, and every frame type. That data jump is the real gap between a practice platform and a tradable one. ### Is ATAS's lifetime plan worth it? If you'll keep using ATAS for more than two years, yes: PRO's lifetime purchase pays for itself in about 25-26 months compared to the monthly fee. If you're still not sure you'll stick with the platform, start with monthly or quarterly billing. ### Does ATAS's price include the futures data feed? No. The ATAS license and the data feed (typically Rithmic or CQG) are subscribed to and paid for separately. The plan price covers the software only. ### What's the difference between monthly, 3-month, and annual billing? The per-month price drops the longer you commit, but the upfront total goes up. Quarterly and annual make sense once you already know you're sticking with the platform; monthly is the no-strings option while you're still deciding if ATAS fits your trading.
