Bookmap vs. Footprint Charts
Bookmap or footprint charts: Which one is better for order flow?
They answer different questions.
Bookmap visualizes liquidity and trading activity over time, helping traders observe how displayed liquidity changes around price.
Footprint charts break down executed volume at individual prices within each bar, helping traders examine buying and selling activity.
A trader might use Bookmap to study liquidity around a level and a footprint chart to examine the execution that occurs there.
Neither tool guarantees better results.
If you're starting out, learn one platform properly before adding more tools. Understanding the data is more important than owning expensive software.
