Liquidation Heatmap
A real-time map of crypto market liquidation zones. It shows where forced position closures are concentrated—they're also where the "magnets" for the next price move are most often located.

What is a Liquidation Heatmap?
Liquidation Heatmap — a heat map of liquidation levels. In the crypto market, leveraged traders lose their positions when the price reaches a certain point. These points form clusters—"liquidity zones." The more leverage traders have and the larger their position volume, the thicker the zone. On the chart, this is visible as bright bands above and below the current price.
Liquidation concentration levels are price magnets. Market makers and large players know where retail stops are and often move the price there to gather liquidity. Therefore, when such a zone is reached, a sharp move almost always occurs: either a "sweep" (a quick touch and reversal) or a cascade of liquidations followed by a continuation of the trend.
Our heatmap is built on our own data - we scrape public liquidation flows from Binance, OKX, Bybit, Bitget, Hyperliquid and 15+ other exchanges. On the chart, each zone is colored by concentration: dark shades indicate few liquidations, bright red/green shades indicate large accumulations. The higher the total USD in a zone, the stronger the magnet.
How to use the liquidation map
Fat long zone from below
A large cluster of long positions with identical stops below the price. If the price penetrates this level, a cascade of long liquidations will accelerate the decline. This is often the goal of a bearish move.
Fat short zone on top
A cluster of short positions with stops above the price. A breakout there will trigger a short squeeze—cascading short-closes will accelerate the rally. Market makers love to attack such zones.
Price magnet
If there are no large zones at either the top or bottom, the price is "free," and it's too early to expect strong movements. However, when a clear "magnet" is visible, the price will likely move toward it, even in a noisy market.
Symmetrical zones
Fat zones both above and below = a fork. The price moves in the direction of large capital attacks. This is often a "sweep of both ends" – a sharp touch of one zone, a reversal, and an exit to another.
