This demo shows how you can implement a simple “Order Book” chart using our XYChart. The chart shows a real distribution of booked sell and buy orders for bitcoin and their volume.
Live data loading and processing
This chart uses amCharts 5 build-in external data loading functionality.
In this case we load data directly from Bitcoin exchange Poloniex API.
The chart is set to reload the data every 30 seconds.

Create a live order book depth chart for cryptocurrency. Display four series: cumulative bid volume as a green step line with faint fill, cumulative ask volume as a red step line with faint fill, and individual bid/ask volumes as dark semi-transparent columns. X-axis shows price, Y-axis shows volume. Process raw price-volume pairs by sorting and calculating cumulative totals. Add an XY cursor, tooltips showing price and volumes, and auto-refresh every 30 seconds. Use amCharts 5 library.
