Gold futures trade on crypto exchanges too. The Orderbook Heatmap records their order books, with stored history. Let's read gold, XAU.

Open a new tab with the plus button, then choose Orderbook Heatmap. Scroll the mouse wheel on the canvas to bring the tab closer.

It is better to choose Pro, because it gives you a more personal selection. Press the pencil to change the asset. Choose Futures. Commodities have their own group. Search XAU. Pick it, and confirm.

Open the settings and pick Low. It sets a floor and a ceiling that fit this asset. It takes a moment to load, because several exchanges are connected and the stored dataset is big.

It reads just like a crypto chart. Brighter bands are where more orders sit. Hover to read the values. These come from futures markets.

Scroll back to see the stored history. The recorded order books stay stored. This is tokenized gold, as traded on crypto exchanges, not spot gold. Here it is only a demo of the tool. It shows order books. It is not advice. Free during Alpha.
