# Order Book Heatmap
Resting order-book liquidity over time, drawn behind the candles, to see where large limit orders sit and how price reacts to them.

## How to read it

- Brighter cells mean more size resting at that price; thin colours mean little liquidity.
- Bright horizontal bands are walls that can act as support or resistance.
- Walls that vanish before price reaches them were pulled, not filled.

## Good to know

- Colour scheme, sensitivity and opacity are set in the heatmap card (flame button).
- Shows resting limit orders, not executed trades. A heavy indicator that uses more memory.
