Chainlink (LINK) Order Book Liquidity Heatmap
Where Chainlink (LINK) limit orders rest in the order book, minute by minute: bids below the price, asks above it, from the Binance and Bybit perpetual books. Bright bands are large orders that stayed; this is exchange data, not a liquidation model.
Right now $14.90M of bids and $12.24M of asks rest in the observed books (15.90% below and 13.70% above the price). The largest bid bin is $1.36M at 9.028 and the largest ask bin $805K at 9.940.
Resting limit orders (real exchange data), not liquidations. For modelled liquidation levels see the LINK liquidation heatmap.

Focus the chart to inspect cells. Arrow keys move one cell; Shift + arrows move ten. Home/End select the first/last time. Escape dismisses; Tab leaves.
Distance view: each column is re-centred on its own reference price, so a resting order at a fixed price drifts across rows as the price moves; a horizontal band here means orders that kept their distance from the price, not a fixed price wall.
Binance and Bybit USDⓈ-M perpetual order books (USDT pairs), one REST snapshot every 60 seconds, summed into price bins. Orders that appear and vanish within a minute (spoofing) are mostly missed. Hyperliquid is not included yet. Grey cells were beyond the depth the books returned (not observed, not empty); past Bybit's depth a bin holds Binance orders only.

LINK liquidity heatmap FAQ
What does the LINK liquidity heatmap show?
Resting limit orders: the USD value of bids (buy orders, below the price) and asks (sell orders, above it) waiting in the Binance and Bybit perpetual order books at each price, minute by minute. Bright horizontal bands are large orders that stayed in the book; a band that ends is an order that was filled or pulled. It is exchange data, not a model.
Is this the same as a liquidation heatmap?
No. A liquidation heatmap estimates where leveraged positions would be force-closed; nobody places those orders in advance. This page shows orders that really sit in the book. Compare the two: the LINK liquidation heatmap shows the modelled liquidation levels.
How far do the books reach, and what are the grey areas?
Right now the books reach 15.90% below and 13.70% above the LINK price. The exchanges' public REST order books return a fixed number of levels (1,000 on Binance, 500 on Bybit). Grey means not observed (beyond the depth the books returned), not empty. Past Bybit's depth, a bin holds Binance orders only.
How often is it updated, and what does it miss?
One snapshot of both books every 60 seconds; the 12- and 24-hour ranges show every minute, the 7-, 30- and 90-day ranges average them into 15-minute, 1-hour and 4-hour columns. Orders that are placed and cancelled within a minute, a common spoofing pattern, are mostly missed. Hyperliquid's book is not included yet.
