Post From: Heatmap Improvements to be closer to Bookmap

This is definitely a tremendous improvement THANK YOU!

Would it be terribly difficult to add a few more levels for more granularity? The thing I like about Bookmap's is it doesn't look pixelated. Somehow and I suspect its just having more colors it has or an algo to smooth between each level. The way you do it appears similar to Jigsaw.

Notice Bookmap's on the right has gradient bands that are far easier on the eye. There might be a 100+ colors here. Bookmap is very popular and I can tell you from using it for two years its ONLY due to their heatmap. Their volume dots are not accurate, small trades have dots too big as a proportion of big dots, until recently didn't have a DOM and bought a third party developers which is ok but not as good as yours or Jigsaws. I suspect some might like the volume or delta for only visible bars but its not customizable at all and I personally don't like nor use it.

Something to think about as somebody who used to create and sell trading software I can tell you it would be one of the Top5 most popular features if you can get your heatmap to look similar or better than Bookmaps!
