The Maps page gives you a single-screen visualization of how the market is moving. Each symbol is rendered as a tile inside a sector or product-family group, sized by importance and colored green or red based on its daily percent change. Press the link from the sidebar — the Maps entry sits below Earnings — or navigate directly to /maps/.

​
What the map shows

The map is split into the three core market views, each with its own grouping and sizing logic:

Stocks

Equities grouped by the same broad sector labels used on the Setups Table. Tile size is driven by importance metrics like market cap, with sensible fallbacks when full sizing data is unavailable.

Futures

Index, energy, metals, and rates futures grouped by product family. Tile size reflects volume-weighted importance for each contract.

Crypto

Major crypto pairs grouped by product family, sized by market cap importance.
Tiles are colored by daily percent change — bright green for the strongest gainers, deep red for the largest decliners — so you can read leadership and breadth at a glance without scrolling through individual quote panels.

​
How prices update

The map uses live trade data when the underlying market is open. When live change_pct is unavailable — for example, before the 4 AM ET premarket handoff or over the weekend — the map falls back to the last completed daily close and the prior-day percent move so tiles still show meaningful values instead of going blank. For stocks and futures, the Friday close-to-close move stays visible until the next session opens. For crypto, where trading is continuous, the map reflects the rolling 24-hour move when live snapshots are temporarily unavailable.

​
Interacting with tiles

Hover over any tile to open a detail card showing the symbol, percent change, and supporting context. The hover card automatically flips above or to the left when you hover near the chart edges, so it never covers the symbol you are inspecting at the bottom or right of the map.
Click a sector or product-family header to open a full-screen map card showing only the symbols in that group. Symbol tiles are rendered at full size inside the card, so you can read smaller names that get squeezed out of the top-level overview.
Click any symbol tile to open the Setups Table filtered to that ticker across all timeframes — the same deep-link behavior used by the Setups Feed and Earnings Calendar panels.

​
When to use it

Use Maps as a fast pre-session scan to see where leadership is coming from before you commit to a directional bias. If energy is bright green across the board while tech is mixed red, that is a clear signal to look for setups in the leading group first. During the session, refresh the map to confirm whether the move is broadening or narrowing — a single name carrying a sector is a different read than the entire group moving together.
Pair Maps with the Sector Performance Matrix on Mission Control. The treemap gives you the visual sweep across the entire market; the matrix gives you the sortable, multi-timeframe breakdown for the sectors you want to drill into.
