Gold order flow on Swiftedge

Swiftedge shows gold with the same live tools as its other markets: the live order book of the Binance XAUUSDT perpetual as a heatmap with every trade as a bubble, candlesticks and a footprint chart, plus liquidations, funding, open interest and long/short accounts from Binance, Bybit and OKX. One contract is one troy ounce, so sizes are shown in ounces (oz).

Spot gold trades over the counter and has no public order book, and COMEX data is licensed; the perpetual is the closest public picture of gold order flow. It trades around the clock, while spot gold and COMEX close for the weekend, for an hour every weekday and on holidays. Swiftedge always marks when spot is closed, and adds what moves gold: the trading sessions, real yields, the dollar and the weekly COT report.

Is XAUUSDT the same as spot gold?

No. XAUUSDT is a perpetual future on Binance that tracks the price of gold in USDT; it is not spot gold, the LBMA price or the COMEX future, and prices can differ, most of all while spot gold is closed. Depth for gold shows its live order book; one contract is one troy ounce.

Why does gold trade on weekends here?

The XAUUSDT perpetual trades 24/7, but spot gold and COMEX close from Friday 17:00 to Sunday 18:00 New York time and for an hour every weekday. In those hours the perpetual usually trades on thin volume. Gold trading sessions shows every open and close in your time zone.

FAQ

Questions traders ask.

What is Swiftedge?

Swiftedge is a Danish company, Swiftedge ApS, that builds free order flow tools for Bitcoin, gold, Ethereum and Solana traders: Swiftedge Depth, a live futures order book heatmap with candlesticks and a footprint chart, Swiftedge Options, a live options chain for BTC, ETH and SOL, and Swiftedge Terminal, up to 16 live panels on one screen, all in the browser. Swiftedge Alerts reach you by push, Telegram or webhook even when the site is closed. Swiftedge also publishes daily BTC, gold, ETH and SOL market structure reports and the SwiftEdge indicators on TradingView.

What is Swiftedge Depth?

Swiftedge Depth is a free, browser-based order flow tool for Bitcoin, gold, Ethereum and Solana. It shows the live BTCUSDT, XAUUSDT, ETHUSDT and SOLUSDT futures order book as a heatmap, draws every trade as a bubble sized by volume, shows price as a line, candlesticks or a footprint chart, and adds stacked imbalance zones, a built-in market read (Mentor), session levels (Session Orbs), options gamma exposure (GEX) levels, CVD and 26 drawing tools, with price and wall alerts. It updates four times a second and needs no download or account.

What is Swiftedge Options?

Swiftedge Options is a free live options chain for Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana options on Deribit, OKX and Bybit (BTC, ETH, SOL). Strikes are rows, calls on the left and puts on the right. Bars show open interest, coloured by which side was aggressive today, live trades fly in, estimated dealer levels mark the call wall, put wall, gamma flip and max pain, and a futures spine in the middle shows a mini Depth of the coin's perpetual. How to read it.

What is Swiftedge Terminal?

Swiftedge Terminal is a free, keyboard-first trading terminal for Bitcoin, gold, Ethereum and Solana in the browser, with up to 16 live panels in seven ready layouts or your own. One screen shows a price chart from 1 minute to 1 day with zoom and drawing tools, the order book ladder, time and sales, liquidations, funding and open interest by exchange, options levels and max pain, crypto news and a market calendar with options expiries and FOMC meetings. Click any price to mark it on the chart, or type a command such as ETH LIQ. Open the Terminal.

What does row height mean in Swiftedge Options?

Row height shows the options-implied (risk-neutral) odds that BTC settles near each strike at the selected expiry, derived from today's option prices and the implied volatility smile. Taller rows are where options price the most likely outcomes. It describes what options cost; it is not a forecast.

Are the call wall, put wall and gamma flip real dealer positions?

No, they are estimates. Open interest shows how many options exist, not who holds them, and dealer positions are not public. The levels use the standard assumption that dealers are long calls and short puts, so treat them as estimated positioning, not measured fact.

Can I set alerts and share what I see?

Yes. Depth, Options and the Terminal have price alerts with sound and browser notifications while the tab is open; Depth adds large-wall alerts, Options alerts near the call wall, put wall and gamma flip. Swiftedge Alerts work when the tab is closed, by browser push, Telegram or webhook: price, whale trades, liquidations, CVD divergence, stacked imbalances and GEX levels. Share turns any moment in Depth, or any strike in Options, into an image card with a link for X, Facebook, Reddit, Telegram, Instagram and more. A live chat runs alongside all three apps.

Is Swiftedge free?

Yes. Depth, Options, the Terminal, alerts and every report are free and need no sign-up. Swiftedge is paid for by clearly marked sponsor placements and voluntary support; there is no paid plan.

Is there a free alternative to Bookmap for Bitcoin?

Swiftedge Depth is a free Bookmap-style order book heatmap for Bitcoin, gold, Ethereum and Solana that runs in the browser with no account and no download. It covers the BTCUSDT, XAUUSDT, ETHUSDT and SOLUSDT perpetual futures on Binance only; platforms such as Bookmap cover many more markets and exchanges. What Depth does and does not do.

Which markets and data does Swiftedge use?

Depth shows Bitcoin, gold, Ethereum and Solana perpetual futures (BTCUSDT, XAUUSDT, ETHUSDT and SOLUSDT) from Binance USDⓈ-M futures: the order book out to about 2 % from price, every trade, and at least the last 24 hours of history. Options and the GEX levels use BTC, ETH and SOL options data from Deribit, OKX and Bybit.

Does Swiftedge support Ethereum?

Yes. Everything that exists for Bitcoin also exists for Ethereum: the ETH order book heatmap with liquidations, Mentor, Session Orbs and GEX, the ETH options chain, the daily and weekly ETH reports, ETH levels, ETH liquidations and the ETH liquidation heatmap. Switch coin in the top bar of Depth or Options.

Does Swiftedge support Solana?

Yes. Every Bitcoin and Ethereum tool also exists for Solana: the SOL order book heatmap with candlesticks, a footprint chart and liquidations, the SOL options chain (Deribit, OKX and Bybit), the Terminal, the daily and weekly SOL reports, SOL levels, liquidations, the liquidation heatmap, funding, GEX and max pain. Deribit publishes no DVOL index for Solana, so the SOL volatility page uses a 30-day at-the-money implied volatility calculated by Swiftedge.

Does Swiftedge cover gold?

Yes. Gold has the same live tools as Bitcoin, built on the Binance XAUUSDT perpetual: the gold order book heatmap with candlesticks, a footprint chart and liquidations, the Terminal, the daily and weekly gold reports, gold levels, liquidations, funding (every 4 hours) and open interest, plus pages of its own for trading sessions, macro and the COT report. XAUUSDT is a perpetual future, not spot gold: spot gold closes at the weekend and for an hour every weekday, and Swiftedge marks it. There are no gold options levels yet.

Is Swiftedge financial advice?

No. Swiftedge shows market data and descriptive analysis for information and education. It does not give buy or sell recommendations or forecasts, and trading involves substantial risk of loss.
