XRP order book heatmap

By Swiftedge · Published

Swiftedge Depth draws the order book of the XRP perpetual as a heatmap. You see the limit orders waiting at each price near the market, a fresh column four times a second, and every trade on top as a bubble. It is free, runs in the browser and needs no account.

What the XRP heatmap shows

Time runs from left to right and the XRP price runs up the side. Every thin horizontal band is one price level of the futures book, out to about 2 % from the price, shaded by how much is resting there: green below the price for bids, violet above it for asks. The brighter the band, the more size is waiting. On top of the book you can draw the price as a line, as candlesticks from 1 second to 4 hours, or as a footprint chart. Trades appear as bubbles, teal when a buyer took the ask and violet when a seller hit the bid, and bigger trades make bigger bubbles.

The indicator menu is the same as for Bitcoin. Liquidations marks forced closes of leveraged XRP positions. Positioning draws where leveraged XRP positions would be liquidated. VWAP and CVD show where volume traded and which side was aggressive, and the footprint chart adds diagonal 300 % imbalances, stacked imbalances, the point of control and delta. Alerts and 26 drawing tools work here too.

What sets the XRP book apart

How to read it, step by step

  1. Look for bright bands close to the price. Large resting orders show where XRP may slow down. A band that has stood for several minutes says more than one that just appeared.
  2. See what happens when the price gets there. If trades hit the band and it holds, the liquidity was real. If it vanishes just before the price arrives, it was pulled, not filled.
  3. Read the bubbles. A cluster of large bubbles at one level shows who is in a hurry. Heavy buying into a violet band while the price stays put means sellers are absorbing it.
  4. Add context. Turn on Liquidations to see forced buying and selling, CVD to follow the aggressive side, and Positioning to see where leveraged positions would be liquidated.

XRP liquidations on the heatmap

With the Liquidations indicator, every forced close is drawn as a ring at the time and price it happened: orange when a long was closed, cyan when a short was. Estimated levels where leveraged positions could be closed next are on the XRP liquidation heatmap.

Common questions

Is there a free XRP order book heatmap?

Yes. Swiftedge Depth shows the live XRP perpetual order book heatmap for free in the browser, with no sign-up, at swiftedge.uk/xrp/depth.

Which market does the XRP heatmap show?

The XRP perpetual futures order book and every trade. Everything Swiftedge shows is its own calculation on public perpetual futures data from Hyperliquid and Lighter; the FAQ lists the sources.

Is this the same as a XRP liquidation heatmap?

No. An order book heatmap shows orders that are actually resting in the book. A liquidation heatmap estimates where leveraged positions could be closed by force; Swiftedge has that as a separate page, the XRP liquidation heatmap.

How far back can I scroll?

At least the last 24 hours. Candlesticks run from 1 second to 4 hours.
