Limit Order Book Indicators in SuperChart

Order Book

Shows the total volume of bids and asks in the order book within the selected depth: from 0.25% to 80% of the price. The value at each depth includes all levels closer to the price. This is the main indicator of the order book: you can see where large limit orders are located.

Usage: Look for large walls at nearby levels. If the bid volume is significantly greater than the ask volume within 1% of the price, the lower support is stronger than the upper resistance.

Order Book Depth Ratio

The bid-to-ask ratio at a given depth. A value above 1 indicates stronger buyers; below 1 indicates stronger sellers. This is a good indicator of short-term imbalances.

Usage: A DR switch from below 0.5 to above 2—a sharp change in pressure. Often a precursor to a 1–3% price move.

Order Book Average

The order book indicator is for the entire market, not just for a single pair. Two modes. AVG D: BID = mean(bid/ask), ASK = mean(ask/bid) — average of equally weighted assets, 1 means equilibrium of buyers and sellers. AVG DR — the book's skew coefficient, that is, which side outweighs and by how much.

Usage: An increase in the average bid and a decrease in the average ask mean that the market is gradually gaining ground, and an upward movement is likely in the works.

Order Book Anomalies

Calculates across the entire market how many coins within the selected depth have one side of the order book overweighted by another: 2, 3, or 4 times, depending on the setting. It displays coins with a seller's edge and those with a buyer's edge separately.

Usage: If the number of coins with a seller advantage increases sharply, selling pressure is spreading across the broader market, not just one pair.

What is an Order Book and how to read it

Order Book — is a list of all current buy (bid) and sell (ask) limit orders for a single trading pair. The price moves as takers take turns filling these limits. Therefore, the order book provides the most honest picture: you can see where buyers are willing to pay and where sellers are willing to give up.

The standard exchange interface only displays the near side of the order book, typically 20 orders on each side. Indicators calculate order volume at depths ranging from 0.25% to 80% of the price and store the history, so you can see how walls have appeared and disappeared over time.

The data comes from Binance's limit order books: spot market and USDⓈ-M futures. If a coin is traded on only one of these markets, only that market is considered. The order book is maintained continuously based on the Binance order book's own changes (level updates, not price movements) with initial snapshots: levels beyond the initial snapshot become known as updates occur. Over time, the order book is updated with new levels, but completeness is not guaranteed: distant levels that have not changed for a long time may be missing. The display window is up to 100% of the midpoint of the price; indicators are calculated up to 80%, and the snapshot is updated once per minute.

Two dates are important when comparing history. 2026-10-18 05:41 UTC — the range of price levels in saved data has been changed. 2026-10-18 07:30 UTC · USDT — starting from this date, amounts are calculated in the dollar stablecoin. Before this date, the quote currency of each pair was used.

Order book setups

A large wall of buy orders below the price

A large buy limit order 0.5–2% below the price is a "wall" that will hold the price during a correction. A long from such a wall with a take-profit at the next resistance level is a classic setup.

A large wall of sell orders above the price

A large limit order to sell above the current price is a ceiling. The price will hit it. If the ceiling is cleared without being filled, the seller has changed their mind, and prepare for an upward breakout.

Spoofing

A large wall appears and then disappears within a minute or two without execution. This is a "scam"—someone was trying to scare or bait the takers. Such a wall is visible on the Order Book chart: volume at the near depth rises sharply and then falls just as sharply.

Sharp imbalance

The Depth Ratio changes sharply from below 0.5 to above 2 (or vice versa). This means market makers have quickly moved their orders. This often heralds a 1–3% move toward the dominant side.

Bid/Ask: Spread and Order Book Imbalance

Bid/Ask Ratio is the ratio of the total volume of buy orders to the volume of sell orders at a given depth. In the charts at the top of the page, this depth is 1% of the Binance futures price; on the chart, you can choose the depth yourself. A ratio above 1.0 indicates that buyers are crowding in, and the market is locally bullish; a ratio below 1.0 indicates that sellers are pressing.

The spread is the difference between the best bid and the best ask. On liquid BTC, it's typically around 0.01%. A widening spread is a sign that market makers are leaving: liquidity is falling, and any large market order will result in increased slippage. In November 2022, during the FTX crash, the BTC spread reached 0.15%—liquidity was removed in anticipation of chaos.

The imbalance in depth shows where large limit orders are located: if the bid is $200M and the ask is $80M, it's easier for the market to move higher. But be aware of spoofing: the "wall" can be removed as the price approaches, so check the order book against actual executed trades via CVD.

Ratio above 1.3

A strong buyer predominance. A bullish signal, especially with a rising price. If the ratio is high and the price remains stable, someone big is selling into the market with market orders.

Ratio below 0.7

Sellers dominate: resistance is denser than support, it is easier for the market to move down.

Spread widening

Market makers retreat, liquidity declines. This often precedes a sharp price move.

A sharp change in ratio

A jump from 1.3 to 0.7 in an hour is a strong signal of a change in sentiment. For swings, look at the average ratio over 1–4 hours; for scalping, look at the ratio in real time.
