The token page (also the home page) displays a table of the current top tokens trading on Nighshade (figure 1). This is ordered by 7 day trading volume.
When a token is selected (from the table or by searching), detailed information for that token is displayed (figure 2). At the top of the page, you have the option to buy or sell the token, which takes you to the Swap Page, with the token automatically selected.
The primary information conveyed is:
This data shows the token's price, deemed the last successful swap price. A plot of this over time is also provided to display the trading cycle.
The Order Book lists 'Buy'(s) and 'Sell'(s). It displays the amount of a token available at a specific price. The buys are displayed in green, while the sells are shown in red.
Example (figure 2):
This example shows (in red) 55 units of $ALPH selling at 1.3 $USDC per unit. The closest buy is at 1.2 $USDC per unit with 4.2 $ALPH available at that price. So, in this scenario, the 'buy' can't satisfy the 'sell', and no trades happen.
Below the depth chart, a list displays a token's successful swaps (figure 3).
The depth chart is a visual representation of the order book; it dynamically changes as more offers are submitted. It is a standard analytical tool used in the stock markets; some methods of interpreting it are discussed in the learning section of this .
