Market Monitoring

VETA provides several panels for monitoring market activity in real time.

Market Ladder

The market ladder shows all instruments with live bid/ask prices, volumes, and price changes. Click any row to select the instrument and broadcast it to linked panels.

Features:

• Search — filter instruments by symbol or sector
• Sector filter — dropdown to show only a specific sector
• Price flash — green flash for uptick, red for downtick
• Virtualized rendering — handles hundreds of instruments smoothly

Price Charts

The Candle Chart panel shows OHLCV candlestick data for the selected instrument. It responds to symbol selection from the market ladder or symbol search.

Market Heatmap

The heatmap shows all instruments as a treemap, sized by market capitalisation and coloured by percentage change from session open.

• Green — price up from open
• Red — price down from open
• Larger tiles — higher market cap

News Feed

The news panel shows live headlines with sentiment scoring:

• Positive sentiment highlighted in green
• Negative sentiment highlighted in red
• Headlines tagged with related symbols

System Status

The header bar shows live system status:

Indicator	Meaning
Feed status (green dot + “live”)	All data feeds are current
Feed status (amber + “slow”)	Some feeds are delayed
Feed status (red + “stale”)	Data feeds are offline
Data depth (e.g. “5 sym · 3d”)	Number of tracked symbols and minimum data history depth
Service health dots	Green/red indicators for each backend service

When data depth is below 7 days, analytics accuracy is limited. Below 1 day, scenario analysis is unreliable.

Upgrade banner

When the platform is undergoing maintenance, an orange banner appears at the top of the screen:

System upgrade in progress — orders may be delayed or rejected.

This is controlled by administrators and dismissed automatically when the upgrade completes.
