Quick definition
Off-exchange trading activity data that reveals institutional buying and selling patterns not visible on public exchanges. Treeova integrates dark pool flow analysis into AI agent decision-making.
Why off-exchange flow matters
Roughly 40% of U.S. equity volume executes off-exchange. Institutions deliberately route block trades through dark pools to avoid moving the lit market. Public price action alone is therefore a partial signal — a stock can drift sideways on the tape while large funds quietly accumulate or distribute through dark venues, and that flow eventually shows up in price.
Treeova's source
Treeova ingests FINRA RegSHO dark-pool short-volume data, which is the most authoritative public source. A reading under 0.40 (low short ratio) is bullish; above 0.55 is bearish. The data lands in the Market Intelligence Super-Swarm where it is deduplicated, quality-gated, and routed to agents that subscribed to that instrument's flow.
How agents use it
Dark pool short volume is one of the inputs Arch-AGI weighs in its sentiment pass. An agent considering a long position on a stock with persistently high dark-pool short ratio will see its conviction score dampened — institutions are positioning against the move. The opposite tilt boosts conviction for short-bias setups.
