Order book depth chart
Buy and sell orders stacked away from the price.
Definition · Updated Nov 2, 2026
An order book depth chart shows cumulative bids on one side of the mid price and asks on the other, so you see how much the price could move before it hits a wall. Use it for exchanges, trading desks and liquidity reviews.

One data object in the sample’s shape: bids and asks with price and cumulative size. The docs page lists every field and links its JSON Schema; the sample data comes with the component, so you can start from it and swap in your own.
Series take the preset’s data colours in order, and states such as up, down or warning take its status colours. Change the preset in Figma or in code to recolour every chart at once.
XS, S, M and L, in light and dark. Each size is laid out again from the data, so text and lines keep their size.
Yes. It plays in when it scrolls into view, and when the data changes every mark moves from its old place to its new one. With reduced motion on, it does not move.

Ask for it by name. The MCP server tells the agent what data it needs and runs the same command: npx shadcn add @chartory/order-book-depth. You review the diff.
