How to use the GTE CLOB frontend
Orderbook Frontend
- Price Chart (Candlestick): Shows the real-time price movement of the selected token in a candlestick format. Each candlestick represents the token’s price range (high, low, open, close) over a set time frame, providing a visual history of market behavior. The price charts are using TradingView.
- Order Book Panel: Shows orderbook information about the currently selected CLOB market. Displays the list of buy and sell orders with their respective price, size (quantity), and the “total,” which is the cumulative sum of open orders on the respective side of the book (buy/sell). It allows traders to view the liquidity available at different price points. Green represents the bid side (buy orders), and red represents the ask side (sell orders).
a. Spread Information: Indicates the price difference (spread) between the highest buy and the lowest sell order. This helps users understand the liquidity and market depth at a glance.
