The price is only the surface
Stock & commodity footprint charts.
See the activity inside.
From Nvidia to gold: see where buy- and sell-initiated volume traded, inspect delta at a level, and put the move in context with volume profiles. A browser workspace for traders who want more than another price chart.
Know the feed: Binance stock, ETF-linked and commodity perpetuals. Not Nasdaq/NYSE share transactions or CME/COMEX futures tape.

Price tells you where it moved. The ladder shows where volume traded and which side initiated it. These sample values explain the view; they are not a signal.
A repeatable workflow, not another signal.
Read inside the bar
Bid/ask ladders, delta, POC and imbalance highlights put executed volume at the prices where it traded.
Make the detail readable
Adjust row grouping, colors and thresholds. Keep the settings consistent with your research question.
Keep the wider context
Combine footprint, volume profile and a broader chart. Custom timeframes and multi-chart are included in Founders.
Choose your market
Specific markets. Specific questions.
Each guide explains the exact contract, a practical review workflow and the limits of the data. Start with the market you analyze—not a list of unexplained indicators.
Stock footprint charts
A candle shows the range. A footprint shows where buyers and sellers actually traded within it. Bring that price-by-price view to stock perpetuals, then keep your levels, indicators and analysis in the same browser workspace.
Commodity order flow
Bring gold, silver and oil perpetuals into a price-by-price workflow. Inspect executed volume, compare the response around a level, and use a volume profile to see where the session concentrated its activity.
Gold footprint charts
Study a gold perpetual move at the price-row level: aggressive buying, aggressive selling and the prices that attracted the most activity. XAUUSDT footprint charts are included in Basis Founders.
Silver footprint charts
Inspect silver perpetual transactions inside the candle. Use XAGUSDT bid/ask volume and delta to study participation around a level, with row settings that fit the activity you are actually seeing.
Crude oil footprint charts
Use WTI-linked and Brent-linked perpetual footprints to examine where an oil move actually traded. Compare participation before and after the event, with the contract and venue always in view.
Nvidia footprint charts
See how aggressive buying and selling distribute across the NVDAUSDT price ladder. Put that view next to a broader chart, mark your reference level, and investigate the reaction rather than guessing from the candle alone.
SPY & QQQ footprint charts
Research S&P 500 ETF-linked and Nasdaq-100 ETF-linked perpetual activity in one workspace. Use SPYUSDT and QQQUSDT footprints to examine where each contract traded as a broader market move developed.
Choose a footprint platform
An attractive ladder is not enough. The useful questions are which transactions it represents, how much history is covered, what you can customize and what you actually pay for. Use this checklist before buying footprint software.
What you are buying—and what you are not.
| Your question | Basis coverage |

| Executed stock & commodity perpetual volume | Supported Binance contracts, including the examples in these guides. |

Before you choose access
How much does stock and commodity footprint access cost?
Basis Founders is $15 USD for 30 days, renewed manually. There is no automatic recurring charge. Lifetime access is also available for $50 USD once. Applicable taxes or provider/network fees are shown at checkout. The numbered Founder badge belongs to the lifetime plan.
Can I pay by card rather than cryptocurrency?
Yes. Card checkout is available through Creem. NOWPayments is an alternative for crypto payments. Access opens after payment is verified. See the payments page for the applicable terms and refund process.
What does a bid/ask footprint measure in Basis?
It groups the selected Binance contract’s executed trades by price and bar. Sell-initiated volume appears on the bid side and buy-initiated volume on the ask side. Delta is buy volume minus sell volume. It is not a record of every resting order or the identity of traders.
Why are some historical rows still loading?
Detailed trade tape loads separately from candles. Check the tape/coverage status before interpreting older bars; a pending ladder is not zero activity. History depends on source availability and the loaded window, not an unlimited tick archive.
Can I use a Hyperliquid stock chart for this footprint?
Basis also charts Hyperliquid markets, but its exact-trade footprint currently uses Binance. Select the Binance version of a supported stock or commodity for the footprint described here; same-name contracts on different venues are separate markets.
