Spot forex and spot gold trade over the counter, with no central limit order book, so no complete list of every bid and offer exists. This order book is therefore not an exchange depth-of-market feed but an aggregated snapshot of a pool of traders: where their open orders (pending orders not yet filled) and open positions (trades already filled) sit across price levels, as percentages. It covers the major and cross currency pairs plus XAUUSD and XAGUSD.

What the two views measure

Open orders show pending orders at each price level, split by where they sit relative to the current price:

  • Buy orders below price are mostly buy limits, plus take-profits on short positions.
  • Sell orders above price are mostly sell limits, plus take-profits on long positions.
  • Buy orders above price and sell orders below price (the remainder of the order total) are stop orders: breakout entries or stop-losses that trigger only if price moves through them.

Open positions show trades by entry price. A long opened above the current price is losing, and a long opened below it is in profit. Shorts are the reverse. The headline long and short shares compare the two sides of the whole positions pool.

Reading a price level

Each table row is one price bucket, and each cell is that bucket’s share of the column’s tracked total. A large share of sell orders just above price marks a zone of many pending sells. A large share of losing longs above price marks where those traders reach breakeven if price returns, and some may close there.

The All / Above price / Below price filter narrows the table to one side of the current quote. All figures belong to the snapshot time shown.

Net positions history

The history chart plots long share minus 50%. For example, if longs are 70% of positions, the line reads +20; if they are 40%, it reads −10. Zero means a 50/50 split. The chart shows how the positioning balance shifted over time, not how many traders or lots were added.

Limits

  • The pool is a sample of traders, not the interbank market. Large institutional orders do not appear.
  • Percentages show distribution, not size in lots or dollars. A 5% bucket on one pair is not comparable in volume to 5% on another.
  • Stops and take-profits are mixed with entry orders inside each column, so you cannot tell why an order exists.
  • A cluster shows where orders sit, not whether price will reach it or react there.
