Indicator Name: ClusterDelta_#BookMap
The #BookMap indicator shows pending orders that are visible in the order book (DOM). This indicator captures the levels every minute and displays them on the screen, where the color saturation indicates relative volume.
While the indicator is being tested and works only on the following instruments: AUD, GBP, EUR, JPY, gold, silver, CL oil, gas, S&P, Nasdaq, Dow Jones indices.
Recall that all volumes are filled market orders with counter orders from the offer (SELL LIMIT is higher than the ASK price and BUY LIMIT is lower than the BID price). Pending orders online can be seen in the #TS_DOM indicator.
The data is displayed as a color scale, where the color saturation depends on the size of the volume. Also, the "cut-off" of a large volume indicates especially large volume sizes by blue (for sales) and red (for purchases) bands.
The #BookMap indicator will make it possible to see the real picture on lower timeframes and predict the potential market reaction during bursts of activity. Also available is the ability to load history with one click (by clicking the "Load History" button), which is located in the indicator's GUI form. Data is loaded in blocks of 4 hours
