BitcoinWisdom has just introduced a new tool that makes it easier to watch large investors—known as whales—controlling the Bitcoin market.
The aggregate heatmap tool lets traders and market analysts see when large buy and sell orders are placed on the market. Looking back over time, it’s easy to see how these big orders have affected the price of Bitcoin.
"The order book heatmaps allow traders to identify key liquidity levels and spot the intentions of big traders without the need to continuously monitor the market depth," BitcoinWisdom told Decrypt.
When it comes to cryptocurrency trading, heatmaps are used to show a graphical representation of the liquidity of a particular market in the form of horizontal bars at each price point.
However, most cryptocurrency exchange platforms will only provide a heatmap of their own order books. BitcoinWisdom's new aggregated order book heatmap, on the other hand, merges the order books from Bitfinex, BitMEX, and Coinbase into a single graph for the BTC/USD market.
The horizontal axis of this chart represents time, whereas the vertical axis represents the order value. Orders at each price bracket are indicated by a colored block, and the intensity of this color represents the number of limit orders at that value.
Orders below the current price of Bitcoin are called limit buy orders, whereas those above the current price are limit sell orders. These are placed in advance and when the price rises—or falls—to that point, the order is executed and a trade made.
As shown above, there was a large support wall set up at around $8,500, but Bitcoin broke through this wall to reach as low as $8,455 before recovering. Now, Bitcoin has weak resistance around the $8,700 and $8,750 price points.
Spotting sell walls over multiple exchanges using this aggregate heatmap is a great way to monitor the market.https://t.co/qwrgIZt9sz

"Spotting sell walls over multiple exchanges using this aggregate heatmap is a great way to monitor the market," said WhaleAgents, a Twitter account that posts trading tips.
But right now, the price of Bitcoin continues to sink—and there’s no massive buy wall in sight.

Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm issued one of his starkest rebukes yet of the Trump administration’s Department of Justice on Friday, arguing that if federal prosecutors prevail in the developer’s upcoming criminal trial, decentralized finance could be permanently destroyed. “The DOJ wants to bury DeFi, saying I should’ve controlled it, added KYC, [and] never built it,” Storm wrote. “SDNY is trying to crush me, blocking every expert witness.” “If I lose, DeFi dies with me,” the crypto devel...
Late Thursday evening, Israeli fighter jets struck Iranian nuclear facilities, opening a wave of instability across global markets, with two camps split on what to do: those running for shelter and those fleeing risk. Gold, long considered a safe haven, beckoned investors seeking safety from the escalating Middle East conflict. Bitcoin, often touted as digital gold, instead joined the exodus of risk assets. "The traditional buyers of gold are not in the crypto market yet,” Stephen Wundke, direc...
GameStop shares plummeted on Thursday after the video game retailer announced that it would offer investors $1.75 billion worth of convertible senior notes, a form of corporate debt that Bitcoin-buying firms like Strategy have tapped to accumulate the asset. The Grapevine, Texas-based firm’s stock price had dropped 22% to $22.12, as of noon Eastern Time, according to Yahoo Finance. GameStop shares changed hands around $25.40 in late March, when the company said that it could start leveraging Bit...
