Markov

Compare · TradingLite · checked 2026-10-16

TradingLite has shut down. Here is what Markov does, and doesn't.

TradingLite's site now says the service has ended and will not resume, and its technology is for sale. If you used it for the liquidity heatmap, Markov draws one live in the browser, with realized liquidations and whale prints on the same chart. It doesn't replace TradingLite's scripting or footprints.

Markov vs TradingLite

What TradingLite is

TradingLite was a browser order-flow platform with a GPU-rendered liquidity heatmap, its own scripting language, and a footprint and volume-profile suite, on real-time data from more than a dozen exchanges. Its site, checked on 2026-10-16, reads "service ended" and dates it 2018 to 2026.

What TradingLite does well

  • A fast GPU-rendered liquidity heatmap in the browser.
  • Its own scripting language for building indicators.
  • Footprint and volume-profile tools on data from more than a dozen exchanges.

Where Markov differs

  • It is live today in the browser, and free for BTC, ETH and SOL with no account.
  • A resting-liquidity heatmap under the candles from Hyperliquid's book, with Binance and OKX books on Pro, and Bybit and Lighter on Elite.
  • Realized liquidations, whale prints, open interest and this hour's funding on the same chart, each with its source. The funding pane is on Pro.
  • Next to TradingLite it has no scripting language, no footprint or volume profile, and fewer venues and coins.

Pricing.

TradingLite, as listed on 2026-10-16

  • None. TradingLite's site says it takes no payments and the previous service will not resume.

Its site points former subscribers charged for a period without service to their card issuer or payment provider.

Source: tradinglite.com (opens in a new tab). Prices change, so check the page before you pay.

Markov

  • Markov's Free plan is $0 with no account (BTC, ETH and SOL on the chart). Pro is $49 and Elite $99 a month plus tax, each after a 3-day free trial with a card (not in South Korea), and until you cancel.

The pricing page says what each plan includes, and what exists today.

Which to use

If you need a scripting language or footprints, look for an order-flow terminal that offers them. Markov doesn't.

If you want a live liquidity heatmap with liquidations and whale prints in the browser, free for BTC, ETH and SOL, open Markov's chart.

Many traders use more than one tool. Markov provides research tools and education, not financial advice.

Questions.

Is TradingLite still working?

No. Its own site, checked on 2026-10-16, says the service has ended and will not resume, and that the technology is for sale.

Does Markov have a liquidity heatmap like TradingLite's?

Yes, from Hyperliquid's order book on the free chart, with other venues' books on paid plans. It is coarser than TradingLite's was, and Markov has no scripting language.
