What Depth does not do

Other order flow tools

Bookmap is a dedicated order flow platform that covers many markets and exchanges. Its current plans, and what each includes, are listed on bookmap.com/pricing.

Comparing other tools? See CoinGlass vs Swiftedge, order book heatmaps for TradingView users and Hyblock vs Swiftedge.

If you need several markets or exchanges, or want to trade from the chart, you need a different kind of tool. Depth is built for one job: watching the Bitcoin futures order book and its trades in a browser tab, without installing anything.

Also from Swiftedge: the options side

Depth is a futures order book tool. For BTC options, Swiftedge Options shows the live options chain from Deribit, OKX and Bybit: open interest by strike, today's flow, live option trades, estimated dealer levels such as the call wall, put wall and gamma flip, and a mini Depth of the BTCUSDT perpetual in the middle. It is free and needs no account. Row height shows options-implied odds, not a forecast, and dealer positioning is estimated. How to read the options chain.
