Live Market Heatmaps: Reading Breadth at a Glance

What a heatmap is for

A heatmap compresses many instruments into a visual field of relative strength and weakness. It is a scanning tool: excellent for orientation, not a substitute for deeper analysis on a single name.

Traders use heatmaps to spot broad risk appetite, sector leadership, or outliers that deserve a closer chart review.

How to use one well

Start with the big picture (indices / majors), then drill into leadership and laggards. Pair heatmap context with news and a focused chart rather than trading colorful tiles alone.
