Class: Heatmap

CIQ.Renderer. Heatmap


new Heatmap(config)

Creates a Heatmap renderer.

See CIQ.Renderer#construct for parameters required by all renderers.

Each attached series will represent a stream of colors for the heatmap.

Note special data formatting when using addSeries, where the custom field that will be used for the stream of datapoints (Bids in our example), is an array of values.

Visual Reference - single color series:
img-histogram-single-color

For advanced heatmap implementations where all the data is received already with a color for each datapoint, use an injection that directly calls CIQ.ChartEngine#drawHeatmap as outlined in this example:

Parameters:
Name Type Description
config Object

Properties
Name Type Argument Description

Width of each bar as a percentage of the candleWidth. Valid values are 0.00-1.00.

The amount of vertical space to use, in price units. For example, 2=>2 unit increments on y-axis.
