Cryptowatch is the only terminal you need to analyze, make, and manage trades on all the top crypto exchanges.

Custom Dashboard, Tipping in Chat, Hide/reveal Chart Analysis

Released: October 12, 2021
This week Cryptowatch released new tools for personalizing your signed-in dashboard, added features to the Chat and included new quality-of-life functionality to the Charts page.

Custom Signed-in Dashboard

Signed-in Traders can now adjust their view when opening up their personalized homepage trading dashboard. Dashboard sections can be re-ordered or toggled on & off using the menu at the top-right of the page.

Tipping in Chat & More

Traders can now tip each other with Credits in the chat. If you really like what that last person had to say, or just want to help out a new trader, toss them a few Credits with an optional message attached. You can tip mods, too, if you appreciate the justice they dole out (we trade too).

More Chat updates:

New URL previews option: Only chart previews. Hides all URL previews except Cryptowatch chart URLs. Accessed via the Chat options menu.
User profile-popovers from mentions. Clicking a user profile another trader mentioned lets you access their profile for tipping or muting.

Hide & Reveal Chart Analysis

Traders can now toggle both their chart drawings and analysis tools on or off.
Drawings can be hidden/revealed via the new “eye” icon at the bottom of the drawing tools menu, or by right-clicking the chart and selecting “Hide Drawings” from the menu.
Analysis tools (both overlays and indicators) can be hidden/revealed by clicking the “eye” icon on the Analysis menu, above the price chart. Doing so removes all overlays and indicators, leaving only the candlestick chart in view. Individual analysis tools can still be toggled on or off manually via the Analysis menu.

CME Chart options, Transaction History, Chat security

Released: September 21, 2021
This week the Cryptowatch team released new chart options highlighting non-trading sessions for CME Globex Futures markets, a transaction history to track your Credits spending, and a new security feature for the Chat.

CME Chart Options: Trading sessions

CME Globex Futures markets are traditional trading venues, and that comes with market opens & closes. We’ve included two new options in the Chart Style menu (right next to the analysis menu) to better visualize the times between close and open.

The options “Show non-trading” and “Session breaks” can be found under the “Trading Session” header in the Chart style dropdown menu. See the gif below to see it in action:

Credits Transaction History

Traders can now track, filter and export their Cryptowatch transaction history via the Credits & Billing page. You can filter the list by type of transaction, set before/after dates and export a .csv file for your personal records.
Could not load image

Chat Security

We’ve added a new Chat feature to help the accident prone from oversharing sensitive information — if you send an API key (or anything resembling one) to the Chat, Cryptowatch will ask you to make sure that wasn’t an accident first. Keep those keys safe!

CME Globex Futures markets (beta), DeFi Assets view

Released: August 31, 2021
Cryptowatch traders can now monitor & analyze global market-moving events from Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) alongside their favourite cryptocurrency markets.
Traders can set alerts, track and monitor trading metrics (such as price, daily summary, OHLC candles, etc.) and apply any of Cryptowatch’s technical indicators and drawing tools for in-depth market analysis.

Accessing CME Globex Futures markets

Currently, Cryptowatch supports the following CME Globex Futures symbols:
There are 3 ways to access CME Globex Futures markets on Cryptowatch:
    1.
    Go to the Exchanges page > select the CME exchange
    2.
    Go to the Markets page > filter markets by exchange or select a CME market
    3.
    Search for “CME” using the search bar

CME Globex Futures markets: Important Info

Delayed Market Data
Market data in all CME markets will be delayed by 10 minutes. This delay allows us to offer this data for free to all Cryptowatch visitors.
API Support
Due to the redistribution limitations of our agreement with the CME, Cryptowatch will not emit CME market data to customers via our public APIs.
Market History
All CME active contracts will be fully backfilled by using all the available historical data of the CME. However, in some cases we have identified that full history is not available. This means that the historical data for some Continuous charts will start later than expected.

DeFi Assets view

https://cryptowat.ch/cards/assets?type=defi

https://cryptowat.ch/assets?type=defi

P/L Histogram Benchmarks, Blockchain Alerts, DeFi Assets Filter

Released: August 10, 2021
This week the Cryptowatch team released an addition to the Portfolio page's P/L Histogram, allowing traders to visualize their Portfolio against BTC and ETH. This release also includes alerts for blockchain fundamental data and a new Asset page filter to show DeFi assets only.

P/L Histogram Historical Benchmarks

A 7-day period of Portfolio Rate-of-Return compared to Ethereum.
Traders can now use the P/L Histogram’s ROR (Rate-of-Return) graph to compare their Portfolio to the historical data of either BTC or ETH. To select a comparison asset, use the drop-down “Comparison” menu immediately below the “Profit/Loss” title. The “Value over time” section of the Portfolio page must be enabled to view this feature.

Blockchain Fundamentals Alerts

Alerts set for an increase or decrease in Bitcoin active addresses.
If you missed our last release, our team added a new category of charts to Cryptowatch — blockchain fundamentals data. This week we've improved the feature by adding alerts functionality as well. Blockchain alerts can be set either from the Alerts menu, or by clicking the y-axis of a blockchain fundamentals chart.
More documentation on blockchain fundamentals, including the full list of supported metrics, can be found here.

DeFi Assets Filter

Traders can now filter the Assets page by DeFi or All.
DeFi traders can streamline their market check-ups from the Assets page with a brand new filter. If you’re focusing on DeFi assets, you can use this filter to quickly monitor only DeFi token prices, trading volume, asset liquidity and more.

Blockchain Metrics, Portfolio Updates, Page Redesigns

Released: July 20, 2021
This week the Cryptowatch team released new charts for blockchain data, updated page designs for the Markets and Exchanges pages, and added multiple updates to your Portfolio tools. On the Portfolio page, we’ve improved the design of the Value-over-time series and Profit/Loss histogram and added fees data to the Trade History tab.

Blockchain Metrics

Above: Bitcoin blockchain active addresses
Cryptowatch traders can now supplement their analysis with blockchain metrics charts, as provided by Coin Metrics. You can find these charts by typing either “Bitcoin blockchain” or “Ethereum blockchain” into the search bar on any page, then selecting a fundamental metric from the list. Fundamental data charts are labeled with “Fundamentals”. More documentation on these metrics, including the full list of supported metrics, can be found here.

Portfolio Updates: Rate-of-return and tool redesigns

Above: the Value-over-time graph

Value-over-time

We’ve updated the look of the Value-over-time and Profit/Loss Histogram tools, moving the period buttons to the top right, the OHLC bar and best/worst performers to below the Value-over-time graph, and separating the P/L Histogram into its own space below.

P/L Histogram and Cumulative Rate of Return

Cryptowatch traders will also notice the Cumulative Rate of Return (RoR) metric on the P/L Histogram. Hovering your cursor over any period in the P/L Histogram reveals the Periodic Return data for that period.

Trading Fees

Trading fees are now listed in the rightmost column of the Trades History tab.

Markets and Exchanges page redesigns

Above: cryptowat.ch/markets
This week we released new looks for the Markets and Exchanges pages, keeping with the overall design refresh of Cryptowatch. Rows on these pages are now separated by alternating colors, and the filters buttons are reduced in size and less intrusive.

MP4 Videos in Chat

Released: June 29, 2021
Cryptowatch Chat now renders MP4 videos — drop a video URL in the Chat to try it out.

Subscriptions Info, TA and DeFi Chat, ALMA

Released: June 8, 2021
This week Cryptowatch released tier information and the ability to upgrade & downgrade subscription tiers (for example, upgrading free access to Cryptofinance to a Standard plan).
Two new chat rooms have been added — Technical Analysis and DeFi. Finally, this release also added a new overlay to the Analysis menu, the Arnaud Legoux Moving Average.

Subscriptions Info and Tiers

Adding subscription services to your crypto-toolbox is now a simpler task — our Subscriptions page now includes a description of the service, what’s included in each tier, as well as handy upgrade/downgrade buttons alongside each subscription tier. If a free trial is available, that’s automatically labeled as “Active” on the subscriptions page.

New Chat Rooms: Technical Analysis and DeFi

These new chat rooms are for traders eager to share their market outlooks and talk about the DeFi (Decentralized Finance) space. In the Technical Analysis room, share your chart snapshots and talk trading with the rest of the CW bunch. As Cryptowatch trader Cryplyfe puts it:
“What’s this? A trading forum on a trading app?!”
CrypLyfe has joined the privileged few — release-notes worthy traders.

Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA)

The ALMA overlay performs a moving average calculation twice — once from left to right, and once from right to left. This, plus normalized distribution within the calculation whittles down noise and improves the trendline. ALMA trendlines experience less lag than a simple moving average, revealing more timely signals. Check it out on the Charts page.

New Header, Undo/Redo, P/L Histogram, Chat Badges, Wilder’s Volatility

Released: May 18, 2021
This week our team released a newly designed header bar to Cryptowatch web, a Profit & Loss histogram to the Portfolio page, updates to our Chat and the Analysis tools library, and a massive quality-of-life update to Charts — undo/redo.

New Header Navigation

We’ve updated Cryptowatch’s look with a new header and utility bar, scrapping the lines between elements for a more modern look.
Scrolling and adding markets to your watchlist in the header is simpler (click the + icon in the right corner), and the Cryptowatch logo and search bar are condensed to make room for your watched markets on the Charts page.

Undo/Redo Charting Shortcuts

This feature let’s traders undo their last charting action or redo the last action they’ve undone, streamlining your analysis process. Right click the chart area to open the context menu, then select undo/redo from the bottom of the menu. Alternatively, use the hotkeys:
Undo: Ctrl (Cmd) + Z
Redo: Shift + Ctrl (Cmd) + Z

P/L Histogram

A new portfolio tool measuring your relative returns across the selected period in the Net Value Time Series graph. The P/L histogram visualizes fluctuations in your combined Portfolio value across all of your funded & connected exchanges.

Chat Badges

We’ve added badges next to usernames in the Chat to denote new users, moderators, and other special-someones. Clicking on a username opens their profile overview, displaying any badges they have, as well as the age of their profile.

New Indicator: Wilder’s Volatility

The Wilder’s Volatility Indicator (found in the Analysis menu) uses an Average True Range indicator to measure market volatility, attempting to generate well-timed buy and sell signals.

Accounts Updates:

    Added ability to remove saved credit cards.
    Added Transaction History filter — can filter by transaction types & time period (since/before).

Multiple Indicators, Global Currency Switcher, Chat Updates

Released: April 6, 2021
Released features this week: Traders can now add multiple versions of the same indicators to their charts, allowing a deeper analysis experience. We’ve also tidied up currency selection (such as your Portfolio currency) and implemented a new Global Currency Switcher. In the Chat, we’ve added a new option in the settings menu for URL unfurling and a User is typing notice in the Chat box.
Other updates include changes to some pages locations, such as removal and relocation (see “Other Updates” at the bottom).

Multiple Indicator Instances

Traders can now add multiple versions of the same indicators to their charts — for example, you can add one RSI indicator set to 14 periods and one set to 9 periods. Each indicator can be individually styled for more visual separation.
To add a new indicator of the same type, click the + button next to its name in the Analysis menu.

Global Currency Switcher

The Global Currency Switcher can be found by clicking the gear icon in the top right of all pages except the Charts page, where the fiat currency option in Chart Settings lives. This option replaces the currency selectors on Home, Assets, Exchanges and Portfolio. The currency you choose persists across these tools.

Chat Updates

Changes to the Chat tool include:
    New “User is typing” to the text box area in Chat.
    New Chat setting to show/hide URL previews by default

Other Updates:

    The Asset Cards page has been removed — but you can always build a faster one with Cryptowatch Desktop.
    “Cryptowatch” logo in the top-left of the Charts page redirects to the homepage.
    ​Converter and COVID-19 tools are moved to the footer, under “Products”.
    ​Portfolio: Figures in the Quote column link to the Markets page if no direct market.

Coinbase Pro NVTS, History Export, Right-click Alerts

Released: March 16, 2021
Updates to the Portfolio page include Coinbase Pro support for the new Net Value Time Series (NVTS) tool and the re-introduction of the History Export features on Portfolio (Kraken and Coinbase trade history supported at this time).
On the Charts page, the Cryptowatch team added the ability to add alerts via the right-click context menus. Posting a link in the Chat now unfurls a preview of the URL.

Coinbase Pro NVTS

Our last release saw the launch of the Net Value Time Series tool on the Portfolio page. This release includes added support for traders who have connected their Coinbase Pro accounts. Traders with Coinbase Pro and/or Kraken accounts connected to Cryptowatch can now see their Portfolio values on both exchanges plotted in the NVTS tool.
​Read our new Guide to learn more about the new My Portfolio NVTS.​

History Export

Traders can once again use the History Export feature to export trade history and ledger entries for the 2020 calendar year (Kraken and Coinbase history is supported). Keep in mind that a report does not indicate tax liability, and that consulting with an accountant is recommended whenever filing taxes.

Right-Click Alerts

Traders can now quickly add alerts by right-clicking at any level of the price chart or volume indicator. Right-clicking an existing alert removes it.

Other Updates:

    Login with email now supported (web only)
    Descriptive error message when creating an account with an already-registered email address
    Removed some trade feed trade filtering for parity with Desktop
    Creating alerts disabled when out of Credits

NVTS, Tweet Pasting, Line Styles, PPO Indicator & More

Released: February 23, 2021
This week the Cryptowatch team issued a large update, including the new Net Value Time Series (NVTS) Portfolio visualization, pasting tweets to charts, customizable line styles (for analysis tools), and much more.
Information in the accounts page has been reordered and given improved functionality, the Volume Profile indicator now displays its loading status, traders entering the Chat can check nickname availability, and, finally, the Alerts panel has an improved UI as well as market links.

Net Value Time Series (NVTS)

The Net Value Time Series (NVTS) Alpha version has been released — this new tool visualizes your Portfolio value over time, signals your best & worst performing assets, and displays your portfolio value as an OHLC bar. At this time the NVTS is only compatible with your Kraken portfolio/holdings.
​Read the new Guide to learn more about the My Portfolio NVTS.​
The new My Portfolio: NVTS graph.

Tweet Pasting

Cryptowatch traders can now paste tweets to the Charts page.
To paste a tweet:
    Copy the URL of the individual tweet you want to paste
    Flip to your Cryptowatch Charts page
    Use your paste hotkeys (CTRL + V on Windows, Command + V on Mac) to paste the tweet
The tweet will automatically paste to the correct time on the Chart’s x-axis, and can be repositioned by clicking the top of the tweet bubble and dragging.
Tweets with images/video will omit the media and paste the text only.
To remove a tweet, right-click it and select Remove this drawing (tweet).
You can now paste cool (or uncool) tweets to the Charts page.

Line Styles

Traders can now customize the line styles of analysis tools and indicators on the Charts page. To adjust line styles:
    Open the Analysis menu
    Select an analysis tool to customize
    Flip to the Style tab
    Click the “line” box next to the color options
There are 25 options for line styles: 5 graphic styles (eg. dotted lines) and 5 line thickness options for each.
Enter the Analysis menu to adjust custom line styles.

Price Percentage Oscillator (PPO)

Traders can use the new Price Percentage Oscillator (PPO) by accessing it in the Analysis menu. The Price Percentage Oscillator is similar to the MACD indicator, but draws on percentage data rather than raw price information. This results in a smoother, more normalized momentum indicator.
The new Price Percentage Oscillator indicator resembles the MACD.

Even More Updates

​Accounts Page:

    Re-ordered Password Change, Email Change and Username Change fields.
    Added a Password Confirmation field.
    Unverified users can change their email without contacting support.

Volume Profile Indicators (Time at Price & Volume at Price)

    Added a load status indication — the volume profile bars are now overlaid with load status, which fills the bars right-to-left as the process completes.

Chat

    Traders entering the chat can now check nickname availability.

Alerts Panel

    The options to Save / Cancel / Delete an alert are stickied to the bottom of the alert panel. Clicking on an individual alert reveals these options.
    Alerts listed in the panel now have direct links to their respective markets.

FTX.US Trading, Mute Users, Bug Fixes

Released: January 26, 2021
In our last release (Jan. 12, 2021) Cryptowatch added FTX.US markets for charting and analysis, and this week FTX.US markets are fully integrated for trading. Traders chatting in the trollbox now have the ability to mute individual users, just in case it comes to that.

FTX.US Trading

Traders can now connect their FTX.US accounts to Cryptowatch via the exchange keys page. Doing so enables trading and portfolio tracking for over 30 FTX.US markets.
FTX.US markets are enabled for trading and portfolio.

Mute Users in Chat

Why argue when you can just mute? Traders can now take the high road in style by opting to mute users they’re tired of hearing. Hovering your cursor over a message in chat reveals an in-line menu icon on the right-hand side. Clicking the icon reveals the option to mute. Muting a user only hides their messages from you — other traders using chat can still see their messages.
Hover over a message to reveal the options menu on the right-hand side.

Bug fixes

Bugs affecting some users have been squashed:
    Bollinger Band cross above upper band alert triggers prematurely
    Slow Chart when using Stock to Flow overlay
    Unable to create a new account with desktop
    Alert settings now displays exchange name alongside exchange icon and market

FTX.US, Context Menus, Vol Profile Range, Psych Line

Released: January 12, 2021
This week Cryptowatch added FTX.US markets for charting and analysis, a new right-click context menu to the charting interface and a custom range selector for the Volume Profile indicator. The new right-click menu on the Charts page is where you’ll find the Remove Last Drawing function, as well as new Show/Hide Drawings and Remove Analysis actions.

FTX.US Markets

FTX.US is a US-regulated version of the exchange, featuring USD spot markets for many high-volume cryptocurrencies (including BTC). Traders can now use Cryptowatch’s advanced charting interface to analyze and speculate on FTX.US markets.
FTX.US markets are now available for analysis on Cryptowatch.

Context Menus

We’ve added new functionality to the charting interface and moved pre-existing actions into new right-click context menus. Right clicking on a price chart now opens options to Remove Last Drawing action, as well as the new Show/Hide Drawings and Remove Analysis actions. Right-clicking on the y-axis opens the option to remove nearby alerts.
Right-click to open context menus on the Charts page.

Volume Profile Range Selector

Traders can now specify an exact time-range to feed into both the Volume at Price (VAP) and Time at Price (TAP) Volume Profile Indicators (options for indicators are found in the Analysis menu).
The Visible option is the default, automatic range that calculates based on visible candles. Choosing Display locks the volume profile at its current range, allowing you to move the chart without recalculating. Finally, custom ranges can be selected by either using the Set on Chart drawing tool or by inputting the start and end date & time.
You can set a custom range for Volume Profile in the Analysis menu.

Psychological Line Indicator

This week we’ve added a new indicator to the Analysis menu — Psychological Line. This tool measures the amount of time that a market was “up” over an adjustable number of periods. In the image below, the Psychological Line indicator is displayed alongside the BTC bull run beginning in November 2020.
You can find the new Psychological Line indicator in the Analysis menu.

More Updates

    Optimized traffic for background chats
    “Filled” option for analysis tools moved to style tab

Portfolio Heatmap, Chatroom Switcher, Mobile Search Bar

Released: December 15, 2020
This week we’ve released major updates to the Portfolio page, including a new holdings heat map and donut chart to help you better visualize your held assets. We’ve also updated the chat pop-out to allow room switching. Mobile users can now use a search bar at the top of any Cryptowatch page to quickly find assets and markets.

Portfolio Heatmap

The Portfolio page’s pie chart has been replaced with an interactive heatmap and donut chart that display your multi-exchange holdings.
The donut chart (left) shows the total number of assets in your portfolio (across all connected exchanges), the total value denominated by your Portfolio currency, as well as the 24-hour percent change of your Portfolio as a whole. Hovering your mouse over an asset block highlights its fractional portion of the donut chart on the left.
Asset blocks in the heatmap are sized according to the amount you hold, update to the current price of the asset, and show the 24-hour percent change. The 24-hour percent change also informs the color of the asset block — shades of green denote gains, greys show no change, and shades of red show losses over the past 24 hours.
Clicking an asset block opens a market for the asset on the exchange the funds are held on.

Chatroom Switcher

We’ve added a room switcher to the popout chat box, allowing you to change rooms from within the popout. You can find the room switcher at the top of the popup, top-left corner.
The mobile version of Cryptowat.ch has been updated to include a search bar to the top panel. This search bar functions just like the search bar on the web app — mobile users can now find assets, markets and exchanges from any page on Cryptowatch.

Performance, Chat updates, Persistent charts, CMF

Released: December 1, 2020
This week Cryptowatch made improvements further boosting its performance and frame rate, made Charts page settings persistent across devices, added multiple upgrades to Chat, and added the Chaikin Money Flow indicator to the analysis menu.
We’ve also added Vietnamese to our supported languages — see Switching languages in Guides.

Performance Update #2

Another big performance upgrade has improved Cryptowatch’s Charts page frame rate, particularly for 4K resolution monitors. The chart below shows the amount of users getting less than 30 fps on the Charts page, and visualizes the effect of our recent performance updates:
Performance updates in the last 2 months

Chat Updates

Now you can change your font size, enable sound notifications and include message timestamps in any room in the Trollbox. The Trollbox’s main room has been renamed to General, with an extra special Brainlet room added to the Chat as well. Room activity monitors are a little more helpful now as well.
New Chat options: timestamps, sound notifications and font size.

Persistent Charts

Chart settings and Technical Analysis indicators now persist across devices. When you open Cryptowatch on another device, your TA indicators, overlays, chart settings, and some trading settings will remain intact. Chart settings include all settings in the Analysis, Chart Style and Drawing menus.

Full list of persistent settings:

    alerts: snap to round numbers
    chart: candle scale, spacing between candles, candle width
    drawing: current tool
    drawing: extrapolate
    drawing snap
    drawing: snap threshold

Chaikin Money Flow Indicator

We’ve added a new indicator to the Analysis menu — Chaikin Money Flow. This indicator measures accumulation vs distribution (buying vs selling pressure, respectively). It looks at price relative to highs and lows over a lookback period, with volume varying the influence of each price point in the calculation.

Homepage, FTX Trading, Uniswap Charts, TRIX

Released: November 17, 2020
This week saw a very big release from the Cryptowatch team. This week the Cryptowatch team revamped our homepage design, enabled trading on FTX markets, added Uniswap V2 charts, added the new TRIX indicator, and made a series of improvements to the Portfolio, Trollbox, Alerts and Watchlist.

New Homepage Design

Our redesigned homepage features a new asset-tile view made up of the top 12 crypto assets by volume. Each asset tile contains the current price, 24 hour percent change in price, 24 hour volume and a right-to-left price sparkline. The tile’s background and sparkline are green (or your theme’s up-color) when the asset price is higher than it was 24 hours ago and red (or your down-color) when the price is lower.
Cryptowatch’s new, tiled homepage design.

FTX Trading & Portfolio integration

Cryptowatch now features trading on FTX markets and FTX Portfolio integration. Traders can use Cryptowatch to submit trades to over 400 FTX markets and track their accounts alongside other major exchanges.
FTX tokenized stock markets visualized on Cryptowatch Desktop.

Uniswap V2 Charts

Traders can now watch and analyze real-time Uniswap V2 markets on both cryptowat.ch and Cryptowatch Desktop.
Uniswap V2 markets stream to Cryptowatch in real time.

TRIX Indicator

We’ve added the TRIX (Triple Exponential Average) indicator to the Analysis menu. This indicator is similar to a MACD, but with a smoother line less affected by varying price action. TRIX filters out market noise and tends to lead the trend rather than lag behind it.
The TRIX indicator smooths price action, signalling trend strength and direction.

More Updates — Portfolio, Trollbox, Alerts and Watchlist

Portfolio:

    Can now sort trade history by side (buy or sell)

Trollbox:

    New activity monitor bars in the trollbox
    New infobot — type !price then the asset pair to pull price data. Eg. !price BTCUSD

Alerts:

Watchlist:

    Can now reorder your utility belt watchlist by: exchange, asset, or a completely custom order.

Chat Rooms, VWMA, Leverage Slider, Chart Move

Released: November 3, 2020
This week the Cryptowatch team added chat rooms to the Trollbox, released a new chart overlay (VWMA), updated the trading form with a new leverage slider, improved the movement performance on the Charts page and updated our Terms & Conditions.

Chat Rooms

We’ve added new chatrooms to the Trollbox for the very first time this week. The new rooms are Politics and Bugs/Features, plus the catch-all Trollbox room.

Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA)

The Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA) overlay is a moving average line with more significance afforded to periods of higher trading volume. When trading volume increases, the VWMA approaches the price level. As trading volume decreases, the VWMA moves less radically.
As volume increases, the VWMA approaches the price level.

Leverage Slider

The leverage selector in the trading form has been replaced with a new leverage slider. You can now click and drag the slider to select your preferred leverage amount when opening new positions.
The leverage slider in Kraken: BTC/USD selects options from None to 5x.

Chart Move

Moving price charts by clicking and dragging has been changed to by-pixel, rather than by-candle, improving the feel and general performance. This is most noticeable when zoomed-in to only a few candles, but affects all zoom levels of the Charts view.
The gif below showcases the new by-pixel movement, but make sure to see for yourself on the Charts page.
Candles entering the chart view appear on a by-pixel basis, improving the overall look and feel.

Performance, Desktop, Vol Profile TAP, ADXR

Released: October 20, 2020
This week Cryptowatch released a massive performance improvement, the Cryptowatch Desktop release, and two new indicators: Volume Profile Time at Price and Average Directional Movement Index Rating (ADXR).

Improved Performance

Changes the Cryptowatch team made this week resulted in a massive improvement of the Charts page’s performance, reducing CPU use by 50%.
The Performance Throttle found in the Charts page settings menu now adjusts rendering and stream updates for the order book, live trades feed, and price chart.

Cryptowatch Desktop

This week saw the release of Cryptowatch Desktop, now available for all signed-in Cryptowatch users. The new native app is leaner on CPU resources and features new and time-tested market data tools. Download Desktop now to start making your own fully-customizable data dashboards. You can read the Cryptowatch Desktop Guide here.
You can read testimonials about Cryptowatch Desktop and more on our blog.

Volume Profile - Time at Price

A new, more efficient version of Cryptowatch’s Volume Profile Indicator was released this week. The Volume Profile - Time at Price indicator differs from the Volume at Price indicator by measuring the length of time an asset’s value spends at observable price levels based on weighted averaging across each candle’s range. The Volume at Price indicator shows the traded volume broken up by actual buy vs. sell trade volume, at unique price levels.
The Time at Price calculation requires less computational power, making the Time at Price indicator a faster performer than Volume at Price, though TAP may not be deemed to be as accurate a representation of real market action.

Average Directional Movement Index Rating

Cryptowatch added another new indicator to the Analysis menu - the Average Directional Movement Index Rating (ADXR). The ADXR measures trend strength — larger values indicate greater strength in the current trend direction — and whether that trend is gaining or declining.

Trade panel, TA alerts improvements

Released: October 6, 2020
This week Cryptowatch released performance improvements to the trade panel, Technical Analysis (TA) alerts panel, and the Asset Card view of the Markets page.

Trade Panel Improvements

    Updating Poloniex orders to include post-only status is fixed
    Advanced options are always applied when using the Replace Order function
    Fixed error preventing order placement on Coinbase Pro markets

TA Alerts Improvements

    Fixed instance where selecting EMA alerts caused interval to change
    Fixed TA alerts issue preventing alerts when selecting 1 week (1W) periods with week start on Monday

Asset Card View

    Fixed real-time updates of market data on Asset Card view of the Markets page

Volume Profile, Williams %R, EMA Alerts

Released: September 22, 2020
Cryptowatch released a pair of new analysis tools this week: Volume Profile overlay and Williams %R indicator. We’ve also included a new type of TA alert — EMA alerts. Kraken Terminal users will also notice a lean version of the Utility Belt is featured on the platform, which includes your watchlist and the new alerts tool.

Volume Profile

The volume profile overlay was released for all signed-in Cryptowatch accounts this week. The volume profile overlay shows trading activity over the visible chart span, showing significant price levels directly on the chart. Volume levels are separated by buy and sell levels, indicated by the up & down colors of your selected theme.
Volume Profile overlay on Kraken: BTC/EUR
With the crosshair tool selected (default tool), hover over any bar in the volume profile for a detailed readout in the top-left area of the price chart.
Hover over volume profile bars for detailed readouts in the top-left area of the chart.

Williams %R Indicator

Also known as the Williams Percent Range, this momentum indicator shows overbought and oversold levels based on an asset’s price versus the high-low range over a given period. The default range for this indicator is 14 periods.
Williams %R indicator below the Kraken:BTCEUR candlestick chart.

EMA Alerts

A new addition to the TA alerts type is our EMA (Exponential Moving Average) cross alert, accessed via the Alerts panel in the Utility Belt.
This alert type behaves similarly to the SMA alert: input the chart interval, the number of look-back periods, and the OHLC data point of the EMA. Then set the alert to be notified when the price crosses above or below the EMA line determined by those inputs.
If you’re viewing a chart with the EMA overlay, reference the chart interval and the look-back periods of the particular EMA line you want to be notified of to get the input information (found in the analysis menu).
EMA alert input panel.

Click-to-set-price Behavior Change

Released: September 10, 2020
Clicking on the price chart to set the price in the order ticket now requires <Shift> key to be held down when clicking. This was added to prevent accidental click triggering this behavior.

Cryptowatch Credits, Donchian Channels

Released: September 8, 2020
This week Cryptowatch launched its new pricing structure — Cryptowatch Credits. Instead of upgrading your subscription to unlock features, you can now pay for the features you want, on-demand. Credits can be earned by completing the Onboarding list, or bought with bitcoin or a credit card. All of the core functions of Cryptowatch — trading, portfolio, charts and chat — remain completely free.
A new overlay has also been added to the Analysis menu — Donchian channels. This overlay plots the high and low prices for an asset over a given period, and is useful for signalling trends and ranges for day traders.

Credits

Cryptowatch has moved away from subscriptions to a more flexible pricing model — Cryptowatch Credits. In this system, you keep a balance of Credits in your account and pay for features only as you require them. All of the core functions of Cryptowatch — trading, portfolio, charts and chat — remain completely free.
The pricing page is now Credits and Billing, with pricing information and renewal options.
Accounts with open subscriptions had the cost of those subscriptions converted into a Credits balance upon release. You can pay for more Credits with bitcoin or credit card. Clients with a credit card attached to their account can opt into automatic refills when their Credits balance is low.
Credits are currently used to pay for SMS alerts, Rest- and Web Socket-API connectivity, and extensibility features like Zapier triggers.
Your Credits balance is always visible in the top-right of the screen, next to your account icon. Check out the Credits and Billing page to learn more.
Your Credits balance is always available in the top-bar of any page on Cryptowatch.
The Market Data REST API page has been updated with new pricing information. Anonymous users are now allotted up to 10 credits worth of API requests via the REST API. Clients with billing information in their account can purchase credits to increase their limits.
Pricing details for REST API requests.

Donchian Channels

Donchian Channels (a.k.a. Price Channels) is a new overlay in the Analysis menu that plots high and low prices over a determined period of time. The default period is 20 bars, which can be edited in the Inputs tab when Donchian Channels is selected. This overlay works well on all time periods (from 1 minute (1M) to 1 Week (1W). It does not factor the current bar into its calculation.

Utility Belt, Light/Dark mode, LSMA

Released: August 25, 2020
Following Cryptowatch’s brand updates is a redesign of the interface itself. This week we released the Utility Belt — a persistent side bar that expands into popular tools like the Chat, Watchlist and Alerts systems (among others).
This redesign also includes an update to the top bar, including a new outboard Themes panel that, when set to the Standard theme, enables easy light/dark mode toggling.
The analysis menu has a new addition in the Least Squares Moving Average overlay. This moving average line projects forward, anticipating a future value, and generates trend signals at crossover points.
On top of all that, we’ve made some performance improvements to the Charts and Portfolio pages.

Utility Belt

The Utility Belt let’s you see the tools you want when you want to, without cluttering the rest of the interface. The Utility Belt currently contains redesigned Watchlist, Alerts, Trollbox, CLI, Onboarding and Changelog panels, as well as a button to expand the Trading panel when on the Charts page.
In addition to the Utility, the redesign includes the following changes: a new “My Account” icon, Portfolio button location and icon, API Access moved to Account menu.

Light/Dark Mode

Part of Cryptowatch’s redesign includes an updated top bar, with new locations for the Portfolio and Theme buttons. When Cryptowatch is set to the Standard theme, the Theme button converts to a Light/Dark mode toggle switch.

Least Squares Moving Average

The Least Squares Moving Average line calculates a least squares regression over ‘n’ bars and projects forward an anticipated current value. This tool generates signals for bullish and bearish trends when the price deviates from the line.

Performance Improvements

    Orders to market bar on the Portfolio page: all orders on multiple pages are included in the bar
    Logarithmic y-axis scale improved for precise, small value markets (eg. /BTC and /ETH markets)

Branding, Cryptowatch Desktop, Linear Regression & RSI inputs

Released: August 11, 2020
Cryptowatch has updated its branding, including a new logo (inspired by our classic “C”) and two new fonts, giving the site a fresh new look.
Included in this release is an announcement and early registration for Cryptowatch Desktop, the native Cryptowatch app that lets you customize a multi-chart layout (and more). Registered users can submit their email to be notified for the release of Cryptowatch Desktop.
We’ve also included a new tool in the analysis menu, the Linear Regression overlay. Linear Regression can help pinpoint entry and exit points, including stop loss levels.
In another update to our analysis toolset, you can now adjust the Overbought and Oversold levels for the RSI (Relative Strength Index).

Branding

Cryptowatch has updated its logo, reminiscent of our classic “C”, now composed of up & down bars that will match any theme applied from the Themes menu. We’ve also updated our themes menu with new light and dark modes and updated our standard theme. Additionally, Cryptowatch is sporting new font sets: DM Sans and Iosevka Custom.
Components of the trading panel (and more) have been updated as well with a fresh new look, as well as the menus for drawing tools. For a run-down of our branding changes see our twitter thread.

Cryptowatch Desktop

Go to the Desktop tab on Cryptowatch and enter your email to join our mailing list for the release of Cryptowatch Desktop. The new native app from Cryptowatch includes multi-chart capability and customizable layouts that you can build from scratch.

Linear Regression

The Linear Regression overlay helps with channel-trading techniques. This overlay plots a High, Low, and Median line over a trend that can help you to determine entry and exit points, including where to place your stop loss. You can find the Linear Regression overlay in the Analysis menu on the Charts page.

RSI Inputs

The RSI (Relative Strength Index) indicator now has further customization options, allowing you to adjust the levels it recognizes as overbought and oversold.

TA alerts, Trading panel, WMA, Correlations

Released: July 28, 2020
Cryptowatch has launched its first TA (Technical Analysis) alert type — SMA price crosses. You can now have an alert trigger when an SMA line crosses above or below the current price.
We’ve also updated the trading panel. Now you can collapse (and expand) the conditional close section of the trading form. The Total field of the conditional close section is now directly editable, too.
In the Analysis menu, we’ve added the new Weighted Moving Average indicator (WMA). The WMA reacts faster to recent price changes than an Exponential or Simple moving average (EMA, SMA).
On the Correlations page, a graph of historical correlation changes is now in the background of each cell.

TA alerts — SMA price crosses

The alert triggers when the SMA line (programmed using the alert options) crosses above or below the current price. To learn more, check out our Guide: How to set TA alerts.
New alert type — Technical Analysis (TA) alerts

Trading panel

You can now fill out a conditional close (in markets where the option is available) and collapse that section of the form, tidying up the view. A summary of the conditional close order is still visible. Click “Conditional Close” again to expand the section.
We’ve also made the Total field editable in the Conditional close section of the trade panel.
Edit the total field and collapse the Conditional Close section.

Weighted Moving Average (WMA)

We’ve added the Weighted Moving Average (WMA) overlay to the Analysis menu. The WMA line adds weight to each data point based on its relation to the current price. This makes it more reactive to recent price changes than other moving average lines, like the SMA and EMA. The results are sharper peaks and troughs and, potentially, earlier trend signals.
The new Weighted Moving Average overlay is in the Analysis menu.

Correlations history

The background of each cell in the Correlations page now displays the rolling correlation over time. The correlations page tracks how closely assets match each other in price action (eg. Asset 1 goes up, so does Asset 2).
The Correlations page shows a historical graph in the background of each cell.

Deribit markets added, Z-score, Share themes in chat

Released: July 14, 2020
Deribit perpetual futures and expiring futures (quarterly) for Bitcoin and Ethereum can now be watched on Cryptowatch.
We’ve added the Z-score analysis tool, available in the Analysis menu on the Charts page. This tool measures the distance in price from a mean value, stated in terms of standard deviations.
Lastly, you can now share themes in chat. Sending a theme in chat lets other traders copy or instantly apply the theme.

Deribit markets added

To send a theme, open the settings menu (cogwheel, top-right of the page), select the theme to share, click “Copy”, then paste it in the chat box. Hit send, and everyone in the chat can choose to copy your theme or apply it to their terminal immediately.
