# Heatmap

## <mark style="color:green;">How to Read the Heatmap</mark>

Each tile represents a token. The tile’s **size**, **color**, and **tooltip data** tell you everything you need to know at a glance:

## <mark style="color:green;">Size By Options</mark>

<div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/v6iar3NU4ENMWJhUCkJI" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

Control what determines the size of each tile:

* <mark style="color:$info;">**Market Cap**</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">– Larger tokens appear bigger</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">**Volume**</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">(5m / 1h / 6h / 24h) – Highlights trading activity</mark>
* [<mark style="color:$info;">**Turnover**</mark>](#user-content-fn-1)[^1] <mark style="color:$info;">(5m / 1h / 6h / 24h) – Shows how often a token’s supply is rotating</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">**Liquidity**</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">– Emphasizes tradability</mark>

## <mark style="color:green;">Color By Options</mark>

<div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/G04pLatb7ZDmqj1RQDMY" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

This changes how tiles are colored based on price performance:

* <mark style="color:$info;">**5m, 1h, 6h, or 24h Price Change**</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">Green = Price increase</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">Red = Price decrease</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">Gray = No significant change</mark>

## <mark style="color:green;">Color Sensitivity</mark>

<figure><img src="/files/OXNRXcZ8ECA7esAobO5A" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

You can fine-tune the color contrast using **Color Sensitivity**. This allows you to:

* <mark style="color:$info;">Highlight small fluctuations (±9%, ±18%)</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">Focus only on extreme price moves (up to ±1000%)</mark>

### <mark style="color:orange;">Example</mark>

Here’s an example of the **Meme Zone Heatmap** with:

* <mark style="color:$info;">Timeframe:</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">`1h`</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">Size by:</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">`1h Volume`</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">Color by:</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">`5m Price Change`</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">Color Sensitivity:</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">`±18%`</mark>

<figure><img src="/files/s5waZ3xT5WELqKJGNW6y" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

#### In this view:

* <mark style="color:$info;">**YYY**</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">dominates the screen in size due to its large volume, with its 5m price change at +13.59</mark><mark style="color:$info;">**%**</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">**EDGAR**</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">shows a gain of</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">**+21.44%**</mark> <mark style="color:$info;"></mark><mark style="color:$info;">and holds a respectable tile size with lower volume</mark>
* <mark style="color:$info;">Other lower 1h volume tokens (right to bottom-right) show a range of activity but take up less visual space, letting you zero in on the market movers quickly.</mark>

[^1]: **Turnover** is calculated as **trading volume (number of tokens traded) × current price**. It measures how “actively traded” a token is relative to its size
