Liquidity Price Depth Chart

Liquidity Price Depth Chart re-imagines the DOM-style depth view using nothing but your chart's visible range: bullish prices are sorted into a dotted, line-connected curve on the left, bearish prices on the right, and the whole picture recalculates the moment the visible range changes. What you get is a depth silhouette of exactly the window you are studying: where liquidity stacked up, and for which side.

How to Trade the Liquidity Price Depth Chart?

  • Line displacement: the further a stretch of the curve pushes along the x-axis, the more volume those prices carried. Pronounced displacement flags zones of interest and possible larger moves ahead.
  • Dotted horizontal lines: mark the highest-volume bullish and bearish prices in the range, usable as support and resistance references.
  • Shape changes: a "V"-shaped profile flattening into rectangles signals liquidity clusters: densely packed prices where positions accumulate and volatility can turn elevated or non-stationary.
  • Voids: reading the dots without their connecting lines reveals empty pockets that can play a significant role in later price action.
  • Sentiment %: a percentage at the base of each side reports whether bullish or bearish activity dominates the visible range.

  • Volume % Box Padding: adjusts the width of the percentage boxes relative to the visible range.
