EdgeDepth vs Sierra Chart

Sierra Chart needs your own crypto depth. EdgeDepth has already recorded it.

Sierra Chart is built for futures and custom systems. For crypto perps, EdgeDepth adds a recorded order book you can replay in the browser, liquidations as core data, and liquidation maps scored in public.

What EdgeDepth adds

  1. Crypto depth, already recorded

    Sierra provides no historical market depth for any crypto symbol, and no Binance depth even live. EdgeDepth records Binance order books on its servers and replays them in the browser.

  2. Liquidations as core data

    Sierra's crypto data page lists no liquidations. EdgeDepth shows reported liquidations, estimated liquidation levels checked against what happened every day, and Hyperliquid's real positions.

  3. In the browser

    Sierra runs on Windows, and on macOS or Linux through Wine. EdgeDepth runs in a browser tab.

Any tool can draw bright lines. Without a score, you cannot tell a level that matters from one that just looks good. A map that shows its misses is one you can believe when it hits.

How it is scored
  • We checked 11 liquidation map and heatmap tools on 4 October 2026. None published how often its levels met real liquidations.
  • The harder test is still running: we wrote down the pass and fail rules for our liquidation rails before 13 October, and publish the result on or after 16 November, pass or fail. Read the registered test →
  • Liquidations bunch up in big moves, which also reach more levels, so the time bar flatters the map. Binance’s reported feed is a lower bound, so dollar figures are a floor.

When Sierra Chart is the better choice

  • You want full local control of your data.

Use both

Keep Sierra Chart for futures and your own systems. Use EdgeDepth for crypto perps, where the order book is already recorded.
