Taker Intensity is a behavioral analysis indicator, which represents the dominant trading direction of the market taker over a given period. A positive value (green bar) indicates net long market takers (long > short), meaning more traders are aggressively doing long. A negative value (red bar) indicates net short market takers (short > long), meaning more traders are aggressively doing short.

The Overview page displays assets being actively long or short. Larger blocks signify greater Taker Intensity, and the color and percentage changes indicate price movement.
