Bookmap Review
Order-book heatmap charting for watching liquidity and market depth in real time.
Reviewed
Quick verdict
Bookmap
Start here if you want order-book heatmap / liquidity charting (volume dots, Time & Sales, DOM, optional chart trading) with software seats from Free Digital through Global Plus $99 a month, and you already budget separate real-time futures/stocks exchange data. Skip if you assumed $19–$99 is all-in, need a Supercharts replacement only, or need verified Canadian-listed / Canadian-broker support.
Sourced fit
- Order-book heatmap / liquidity charting: volume dots, Time & Sales, DOM, optional chart trading (official pages 2026-09-08).
- Software seats: Free Digital; Digital Plus $19 a month ($195 a year); Global $49 a month ($468 a year, lifetime $990); Global Plus $99 a month ($948 a year, lifetime $1,990).
- Free / Plus on-ramp for delayed US stocks/futures + vendor-claimed real-time crypto; Global seats unlock BookmapData / dxFeed / Rithmic paths.
Sourced limits
- Real-time futures/stocks exchange data is NOT included in $19–$99 software; BookmapData / dxFeed / Rithmic sold separately.
- Not a broker; Canadian-listed coverage and named Canadian-broker integrations unverified.
- Cancel = auto-renew off through period end (not prorated); no public money-back guarantee found.
- Affiliate program claims 15% / 60-day cookie; no affiliate link; CTAs go to the official site.

Pricing
Members signup / packages-comparison software totals (2026-09-08): Digital Free $0; Digital Plus $19 a month ($195 a year); Global $49 a month ($468 a year, lifetime $990); Global Plus $99 a month ($948 a year, lifetime $1,990). Real-time futures/stocks exchange data is NOT included, BookmapData / dxFeed / Rithmic sold separately. Confirm software + data totals before you pay.
Bookmap pricing in short: Digital is free. Digital Plus is $19 a month, Global $49 and Global Plus $99. Billed yearly they work out to about $16, $39 and $79 a month, and Global and Global Plus also come as lifetime licenses for $990 and $1,990. Real-time futures and stock market data are sold separately. Prices are from bookmap.com/pricing, captured 2026-09-08 and checked again 2026-10-04.
Verdict
Bookmap is desktop / charting software for order-book heatmap views of liquidity and market depth. Official pages at bookmap.com, bookmap.com/pricing, and bookmap.com/en/packages-comparison describe heatmap-style depth visualization, volume dots / clustering, Time & Sales, DOM, price & volume alerts, optional trading from the chart / DOM, record & replay, a third-party add-ons marketplace, and education / Discord labels on higher seats. Bookmap is not a broker.
Authoritative software dollars (members signup plan list + packages-comparison, captured 2026-09-08):
| Plan | Monthly | Annual billed | Monthly rate on annual | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Digital (Free) | $0 | $0 | $0 | None |
| Digital Plus | $19 | $195 | ~$16.25 | not in catalog |
| Global | $49 | $468 | ~$39 | $990 |
| Global Plus | $99 | $948 | ~$79 | $1,990 |
Marketing yearly cards often show $16 / $39 / $79 per month, those are effective monthly rates. This review publishes the billed annual totals ($195 / $468 / $948) and notes the effective monthly rate.
Critical, exchange data is separate. Official pricing copy: live market data for stocks / futures is not included; market-data offers are available for purchase after you subscribe to a Bookmap plan. Real-time futures & stocks fees are sold via BookmapData / dxFeed / Rithmic (examples on the same pricing surface: BookmapData futures ~$34 a month per exchange after a first-month promo, CME bundle ~$79 a month, Nasdaq stocks ~$59 a month after promo; dxFeed futures listed around $37 a month per exchange). Do not treat software seats of $19–$99 as all-in cost for live US stocks or futures heatmaps.
Crypto (vendor claim). Pricing / packages-comparison Connectivity rows label real-time crypto connections (examples named: Binance, Bitfinex, “+20 more”) on Free / Digital Plus surfaces, and a “Crypto (Free)” provider note elsewhere on the page. Treat that as vendor marketing for crypto connectivity, confirm which venues and delay rules apply in your account; this review does not invent that every crypto market is free forever for every seat.
This is a directory listing of analysis / charting software, not a brokerage, not a signal service, and not a source of investment advice. Heatmaps, liquidity, and volume dots are research inputs, not forecasts and not trades to copy. Do not treat this page as a how-to for placing trades.
We are not saying Bookmap is the best heatmap tool, the best charting platform, or the best purchase. We do not invent star ratings. We are not saying it will make a strategy profitable.
Best for
- Order-book heatmap / liquidity charting as the primary job. Official surfaces center depth heatmaps, volume dots, Time & Sales, DOM, and related market-visualization labels: not a Supercharts clone and not an unusual-options-flow tape.
- A free Digital on-ramp when delayed US stocks & futures plus vendor-claimed real-time crypto connections are enough to evaluate the UI (packages-comparison Connectivity rows).
- Digital Plus at $19 a month (annual $195 / ~$16.25 a month) when you want the next software seat without buying full-depth futures/stocks feeds yet: still delayed US stocks & futures on the Free / Plus connectivity story until you move to Global-class data providers.
- Global / Global Plus when you need real-time futures & stocks connectivity via BookmapData / dxFeed / Rithmic and you have already budgeted the separate data fees. Packages-comparison Market Visualizations: up to 10 / 20 symbols viewable at once on Global / Global Plus (vs 1 / 3 on Digital / Digital Plus).
- Optional chart / DOM trading and add-ons marketplace as labeled on higher seats: execution still happens through connected brokers / venues the vendor supports; Bookmap remains software, not your broker.
That is a fit for traders who want depth / liquidity visualization as a research input before they send an order somewhere else. It is not a claim that heatmaps improve results.
Skip if
- You assumed $19–$99 includes live CME / Nasdaq market data. It does not. Official pricing states real-time futures & stocks market-data fees are not included in the software subscription. Budget BookmapData / dxFeed / Rithmic (and any exchange professional fees) separately.
- You want Bookmap to be the broker. This is not a broker comparison. Optional trading-from-chart labels are product features for routing elsewhere, not custody at Bookmap.
- You want stock picks, alerts-as-advice, or a ranked “best trade.” Heatmaps and volume dots are research inputs. This directory does not convert them into a ranking or a pick.
- Your primary job is Supercharts-style multi-asset charting or a live unusual-options-flow tape. Charting peers include TradingView, TrendSpider, Thinkorswim, TC2000 for scan-driven stock charts, and MetaStock desktop technical analysis. Tape-first peers include Unusual Whales, Cheddar Flow, FlowAlgo, and BlackBoxStocks. This page does not rank them.
- You need verified Canadian-listed coverage or a named Canadian broker integration. Both remain unverified: see Canada note.
- You need a public money-back guarantee. We found no public money-back guarantee on the pages reviewed; cancel is described as turning off auto-renew with access through the paid period (not prorated). Confirm current terms before you pay.
What you get at each price
Source of truth for software dollars: members signup plan list + packages-comparison / pricing captured 2026-09-08. Marketing “per month when billed yearly” figures are effective rates; billed annual totals below are what this review publishes.
Software subscription (does not include live futures/stocks exchange data)
| Plan | Monthly | Annual billed | Monthly rate on annual | Lifetime | Pricing URL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Digital (Free) | $0 | $0 | $0 | None | Pricing |
| Digital Plus | $19 | $195 | ~$16.25 | not in catalog | Pricing |
| Global | $49 | $468 | ~$39 | $990 | Pricing |
| Global Plus | $99 | $948 | ~$79 | $1,990 | Pricing |
Also on official packages-comparison / pricing (feature labels, vendor claims):
- Connectivity. Free / Digital Plus: delayed US stocks & futures; real-time crypto (Binance, Bitfinex, “+20 more” as labeled). Global / Global Plus: BookmapData, dxFeed, Rithmic (full-depth providers sold separately).
- Max symbols viewable at once. Digital 1 · Digital Plus 3 · Global 10 · Global Plus 20.
- Core visualizations / tape surfaces. Time & Sales; volume, quotes & delta columns; volume dots & bars clustering; price & volume alerts; notes: labeled across the comparison grid (confirm which columns unlock on your seat at signup).
- Trading labels. Real-time simulated trading; crypto trading on lower seats; stocks / futures / cross-trading labels on higher seats. Still not a broker.
- Advanced add-ons & marketplace. CVD, large-trades alert, footprint, DOM Pro, and many third-party marketplace products are listed as sold separately or seat-gated: confirm the matrix at signup; do not invent that every add-on ships in Digital Plus.
- Education / Discord (higher seats). Packages-comparison lists a 4-hour order-flow course, live trading sessions, and full Bookmap Discord access among education rows: treat as vendor seat labels; confirm on your plan.
Separate real-time futures & stocks data fees (examples, not all-in software)
Official pricing: “Real-Time Futures & Stocks Market Data fees are not included in the price of the Bookmap software subscription.” Data offers appear after you subscribe. Example figures shown on the pricing / packages-comparison surface (2026-09-08 capture, promos change):
| Feed example | What the page showed | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| BookmapData futures (CME/CBOT/NYMEX/COMEX) | $17 a month first month → $34 a month after; CME bundle $79 a month | First-month 50% off promo language on capture day |
| BookmapData Nasdaq stocks | $29 first month → $59 a month after; Professional Access +$130 a month exchange fees | Confirm pro vs non-pro rules at signup |
| dxFeed (ranges on page) | Futures ~$37 a month per exchange; US equities $34–$119 a month | Provider choice affects backfill / price |
| Rithmic | Pricing range $40 to $101 a month on the pricing page (2026-10-08); backfill notes (e.g. 1 hour free, 24 hours may require $14 a month per exchange) | Confirm current cart |
| Crypto | Vendor labels real-time crypto connections / “Crypto (Free)” on recommended-providers notes | Vendor claim, confirm venues & rules in-account |
Cancel / renew. Public story we use here: cancel = turn off auto-renew; access continues until the paid period expires; not prorated. We found no public money-back guarantee on the pages reviewed. Confirm current terms / help articles before you pay.
Affiliate program (official affiliate page). Vendor claims 15% commissions, 60-day cookie, recurring up to 1 year. We don’t have an affiliate link for Bookmap, so its button goes to the official site.

Prices change. Confirm software and data-feed checkout totals before you pay. This directory does not sell Bookmap and has no affiliate URL. The CTA on this page goes to the official homepage: bookmap.com. We may earn a commission later if a tracked link is added; none is wired today.
Pros and cons
Sourced from the official pages listed under Sources. We do not invent partner-program payout rules beyond the affiliate page claims above.
Pros
- Clear software ladder: Free Digital → Digital Plus $19 → Global $49 → Global Plus $99, with published annual billed totals and lifetime SKUs for Global / Global Plus.
- Product center of gravity matches the heatmap / depth job (volume dots, Time & Sales, DOM) rather than pretending to be a flow tape or a Supercharts clone.
- Pricing page states outright that real-time futures/stocks data is separate, useful once readers see the software vs data split.
- Free Digital on-ramp plus vendor-claimed real-time crypto connectivity for evaluating the UI without a paid software seat.
- Optional chart/DOM trading and marketplace add-ons for traders who already execute elsewhere.
Cons
- Live US stocks / futures heatmaps are not all-in at $19–$99, data fees can rival or exceed the software seat depending on exchanges.
- First-month BookmapData promos and marketing yearly cards that show a monthly rate can confuse which dollars are standing vs effective vs promo.
- Not a broker; Canadian-listed coverage and named Canadian-broker integrations unverified.
- No public money-back guarantee found; cancel is auto-renew off through period end (not prorated) on the story used here.
- Feature / add-on matrix is dense, confirm which columns unlock on your seat; marketplace items are often sold separately.
- Lifetime SKU for Digital Plus is not in the catalog we used (2026-09-08).

None of those rows is a recommendation to switch, and none is a claim that Bookmap wins charting or flow.

Canada note
This directory is written with readers in Canada as well as the United States.
Canadian-listed coverage unverified. Official pricing / packages-comparison pages we reviewed emphasize US stocks & futures connectivity and crypto connections. We did not find an official page stating that Canadian-listed equities (TSX, TSXV, NEO, CSE) or Montréal Exchange products are supported. Canadian-listed coverage is unverified.
Canadian broker compatibility. We found no official Bookmap page that lists Canadian brokers, Questrade, Wealthsimple, TD Direct Investing, or Interactive Brokers Canada as integrated execution partners. Any claim that Bookmap “works with” a named Canadian broker would be invented. Compatibility with a specific Canadian broker is unverified. Many people use a charting tool in one window and a broker in another, that workflow is a description of two separate products, not a verified integration.
Purchasing from Canada. Software and data prices on the pages we captured are in US dollars; no CAD pricing or cross-border-fee note appears on those surfaces.
Currency (CAD vs USD), registered-account constraints (TFSA, RRSP), and Canadian tax treatment of trades are outside this review.

FAQ
- Is Bookmap a broker?
- No. This directory lists Bookmap as order-book heatmap charting software. Official pages describe heatmap-style depth visualization, volume dots, Time & Sales, DOM, optional trading from the chart / DOM, and a third-party add-ons marketplace, not account opening or cash custody. Bookmap is not a broker. Optional chart / DOM trading and “multiple broker support” on higher packages are vendor product labels for connecting execution elsewhere; they do not make Bookmap your brokerage. Do not treat this page as a how-to for placing trades.
- Which plan should I pick / what about data fees?
- Members signup / packages-comparison dollars (2026-09-08) for software only: Digital (Free) $0; Digital Plus $19 a month (annual billed $195 / ~$16.25 a month; lifetime not in catalog); Global $49 a month (annual $468 / ~$39 a month; lifetime $990); Global Plus $99 a month (annual $948 / ~$79 a month; lifetime $1,990). Prefer Free Digital or Digital Plus when delayed US stocks/futures plus vendor-claimed real-time crypto connections are enough. Prefer Global / Global Plus when you need BookmapData / dxFeed / Rithmic real-time futures and stocks connectivity, more simultaneous symbols (packages-comparison: up to 10 / 20), and the higher-seat trading / add-on / education labels. Critical: real-time futures and stocks exchange market data is NOT included in the software subscription, BookmapData / dxFeed / Rithmic are sold separately after you subscribe (examples on pricing: BookmapData futures ~$34 a month per exchange after first-month promo, CME bundle ~$79 a month, Nasdaq stocks ~$59 a month after promo). Do not treat $19–$99 as all-in. Confirm software + data totals before you pay.
- Does it work in Canada?
- As charting software you can attempt to open the site from Canada. Official pricing / packages-comparison pages we reviewed emphasize US stocks & futures connectivity and crypto connections; we did not find an official statement that Canadian-listed equities (TSX, TSXV, NEO, CSE) or Montréal Exchange products are supported. Canadian-listed coverage is unverified. We found no official Bookmap page that lists Canadian brokers, Questrade, Wealthsimple, TD Direct Investing, or Interactive Brokers Canada as integrated execution partners. Named Canadian-broker integrations are unverified. Currency (CAD vs USD), registered-account constraints (TFSA, RRSP), and Canadian tax treatment of trades are outside this review.
- How is this different from TradingView or unusual-options-flow tapes?
- Bookmap’s public product story is order-book heatmap / liquidity and market-depth charting (volume dots, Time & Sales, DOM). TradingView’s public story is multi-asset Supercharts, screening, and a broad charting platform. Unusual-options-flow tapes such as Unusual Whales, Cheddar Flow, FlowAlgo, and BlackBoxStocks center live options-flow / dark-pool / scanner dashboards, a different job on this directory. This page does not rank them.
