I've used bookmap for a long time. But later found better solutions
Bookmap is not even close in terms of usability of provided information. The only thing they are good at is marketing. And their support... one of the worst experiences in the industry
ie now I can see icebergs, know if it was
bid or ask iceberg, exact price, how large it was, if it was filled fully or partially, how much was
reloaded and the most important IF IT'S STILL THERE waiting to be filled
Second thing is visualisation of large orders. If large order hits the market and takes several levels of liquidity to fill I will see it as it was placed, ie I will see if someone hit the bid with 1000
contracts order. I see order ID, size and exact position of that large player. Bookmap in such case will insist it detected iceberg whitch is totall bs. Or it will show nothing because it can't track single large orders
Third thing:
HFT activity. Guys from bookmap sell the story that they developed it to monitor HFT activities. Yet it's just an ordinary heatmap and contains ZERO of visual aids to help you show what the HFT's are doing. I use QuantPrint tool for that and if you are interested you can google it and see it's possibilities, you can use it to show multiple kinds of hft activity and when exactly this activity changes. It can even track cross-market market making correlations
Compared to that tools bookmap is just a nice looking heatmap. And you probably know that now you can configure
Sierra Chart to show very similar looking heatmap completely for free
