NEPSE heat map: the whole market in one picture

NEPSE’s sector sub-indices

NEPSE also publishes an index for each sector. They are weighted differently from the map, so a sector can be green here and red above.

Questions about the heat map

What does the size of a tile mean?

By default a tile’s area is the money that traded in that company today, its price times the shares that changed hands, so the busiest companies take the most space. Switch to market value to size each company by what it is worth instead.

What does the colour mean?

Green rose and red fell, measured against the previous close. The deeper the colour, the bigger the move: under 1 percent, 1 to 3, 3 to 5, and 5 percent or more. Grey did not move.

Is the heat map live during trading hours?

Yes. While NEPSE is open the tiles are resized and recoloured from NEPSE published data about once a minute, and may be delayed. Outside trading hours the map shows the last close, with its date.

Can I see one sector on its own?

Yes. Pick a sector in the list beside the map (above it on a phone) and it fills the whole map, so small companies get room for a label. Pick All sectors to go back. In the app, tapping a sector does the same.
