The **Market Stats** widget provides a comprehensive, high-frequency view of a symbol's market activity. It combines aggressive execution metrics (TPS and Volume Flow) with passive order book depth to give traders a real-time snapshot of market imbalance and participation.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Main Chart Integration**: The Market Stats widget is globally synced to your main chart. It automatically tracks the metrics of whichever symbol and exchange is currently active in your primary workspace.

## Widget Layout

The widget is divided into three primary real-time monitoring sections, each featuring numerical values, historical sparkline charts, and interactive hover states.

### 1. Header & Execution Activity

The top section displays the essential identity of the asset and its current execution speed.

- **Symbol Info**: Displays the coin icon, the symbol name (e.g., BTCUSDT), and the source exchange (e.g., Binance Futures).
- **Price**: Large, real-time display of the last traded price in USD.
- **TPS (Trades Per Second)**: A bullish/green metric indicating the frequency of trade executions.
- **TPS Sparkline**: A real-time chart showing the history of trade frequency. Hover over the chart to see the exact TPS value at a specific timestamp.

### 2. Book Depth Section

This section monitors the "thickness" of the order book, showing the resting liquidity available near the current price.

- **Bid & Ask Values**: Displays the total dollar amount of liquidity sitting on the bid (green) and ask (red) sides within a specific percentage of the mid-price.
- **Depth Gauge**: A visual imbalance bar that instantly shows the ratio of bid vs. ask dominance.
- **Depth Sparkline**: A dual-line chart tracking how the bids and asks are evolving over time.

### 3. Volume Flow Section

Volume flow tracks the actual dollar value of executed trades, distinguishing between aggressive market buys and sells.

- **Buy & Sell Values**: Numerical display of the accumulated dollar volume for market-buy (green) and market-sell (red) orders.
- **Flow Gauge**: A visual indicator showing the ratio of executed buy volume versus sell volume.
- **Flow Sparkline**: A dual-line chart visualizing the "tug-of-war" between aggressive buyers and sellers.

## Key Metric Definitions

| Metric          | Type      | Description                                                                                                          |
| :-------------- | :-------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **TPS**         | Execution | The number of trades executing per second. Higher TPS typically correlates with higher volatility.                   |
| **Book Depth**  | Liquidity | The total value of passive limit orders. Shows how much volume can be absorbed before the price moves significantly. |
| **Volume Flow** | Volume    | The total USD value of trades executed. Measures the actual "heavy lifting" being done by market participants.       |

{% hint style="success" %}
Use the **Gauge Bars** to quickly identify "Fake" versus "Real" moves. If the price is rising but the **Book Depth** shows a massive ask-side dominance and the **Volume Flow** gauge is neutral, the move may be running into a significant liquidity wall.
