Live orderbook pairing

Confirm depth, walls, and short-term liquidity bias before acting on a USDⓈ-M signal. The orderbook panel docks next to the signal feed and auto-selects the symbol of the currently-selected signal.

The orderbook pairing panel is a docked DOM depth view that auto-syncs with the symbol of the currently-selected signal. It's the answer to "the signal says BUY — but is there actually any liquidity here?". You can confirm a wall above (resistance risk for longs), spot a vacuum below (slippage risk on stop), or just verify the symbol isn't a thin alt where slippage will eat your edge. Ultimate-tier.

Orderbook pairing panel

Layout

The panel docks to the right of the signal feed:

  • Top — symbol header with mark price, 24h change, 24h volume.
  • Middle — depth ladder (~20 levels per side, ask above, bid below). Bid green, ask red.
  • Bottom — depth bar chart (cumulative size visualization for quick wall-spotting).

The panel reuses the Orderbook side-panel component — same UI vocabulary, same data source.

Auto-sync behaviour

  • Click a row in the live feed → orderbook switches to that signal's symbol within ~1 s.
  • The previous symbol's WS subscription closes; new subscription opens.
  • If you open the detail dialog, the orderbook stays on the symbol behind the dialog.
  • If the dialog is closed without selecting a new signal, the orderbook keeps its last symbol.

Use cases

Verify entry feasibility

For a LONG signal:

  • Look at the bid side near the entry price.
  • If bids are thick and stacked, fills are likely good — you can use market or limit.
  • If bids are thin (low cumulative size within 0.5% of entry), use limit at entry; market orders will slip.

Spot wall risk

For an active LONG with TP1 above:

  • If a large ask wall sits between current price and TP1, the path is harder — consider taking partial profits before the wall.
  • A large bid wall just below entry is supportive — your effective SL is the wall, not your hard SL line.

Liquidity-driven exit

For a closed position about to be re-piped to autotrade:

  • If 24h volume < $5M, expect higher slippage and consider reducing position size.
  • If 24h volume > $100M, slippage is negligible at retail size.

Wall detection

The panel highlights "walls" (clusters of large size at one price level) with:

  • A thicker bar in the depth chart.
  • A subtle accent border on the matching row in the ladder.
  • A tooltip on hover showing the wall's total size in USD notional.

Walls > 5× the median level size at that distance count as walls.

Premium vs Ultimate

Premium users can still manually open the orderbook for the selected signal's symbol from the Chart Terminal, but it won't auto-sync from the signals page.

Show / hide the panel

The panel collapses on screens < 1200 px to give the signal feed full width. On desktop:

  • A small chevron at the top-right of the panel collapses it (saves horizontal space if you're focused on the feed).
  • A button in the feed header re-opens it.

The collapsed/expanded state persists per device.

Common pitfalls

PitfallWhy it matters
Reading walls as immovable.Walls evaporate. A 10 BTC ask wall can vanish in seconds when whales decide to fill — don't size positions on the assumption that the wall holds.
Ignoring spoofing on thin pairs.Some alt orderbooks have visible "spoofs" — large orders that get pulled the second price approaches. Cross-check with the Walls panel of the chart terminal.
Using orderbook size to decide entry timing.Orderbook is a SNAPSHOT; you're seeing what's there now, not what will be there in 30 s.
