Liquidity Heatmap
Use violet, blue, cyan, and amber trails to show where recent trading attention persists, strengthens, or fades.
Indicator overview
Use the heatmap to locate prices that repeatedly attract trading attention. Deep violet marks weak background heat, electric blue and cyan show stronger concentration, and amber is reserved for the strongest current areas. Long glowing walls reveal prices whose heat persists through time, while the right-side profile compares the latest relative intensity at every price layer.
The display is calculated from candle prices, volume, and ATR with forward-only decay. It is not an exchange Level 2 order book and does not state that a known quantity of resting orders exists at a price. Use it to organize possible reaction, support, and resistance areas, then wait for candle behavior and structural confirmation when price returns.
How to read the chart
- Deep-violet heat
- Lower price-volume attention used as quiet background context
- Electric-blue / cyan heat
- More concentrated recent trading and price acceptance
- Amber core
- The few strongest levels in the current sample, not an automatic reversal signal
- Horizontal glow wall
- Persistent heat at one price forms a continuous reaction band
- Right-side intensity profile
- Compares current heat by price; the dashed line marks the strongest layer
Signal confirmation
Heat strengthening
Color advances from violet and blue toward cyan or amber while persistence increases
Heat decay
Color fades after price leaves, showing that recent attention is weakening
Revisit reaction
Price returns to a strong wall and prints rejection, volume expansion, or a structure turn
How to use it
- 01
Prioritize long cyan and amber trails instead of finding a reason in every violet cell
- 02
On the first revisit, wait for a close reaction and confirm with BOS, CHoCH, or an Order Block
- 03
After large candles cut through a wall, wait for decay or a newly established heat area
- 04
Do not compare intensity across different timeframes or windows without recalibrating
Unreliable volume, changing volume definitions, extreme gaps, or tasks requiring actual order-book levels and resting-order quantities.
Parameter guide
Vertical resolution; more layers add detail and fragmentation
Controls historical decay; higher values create longer trails
Rolling window used to judge relative volume strength
ATR window controlling vertical heat spread
Controls response and overall visual intensity
