Compare the same market across many exchanges in real time — spot spreads, volatility and who moves first.

Reading the charts

Every line is one exchange
Each chart overlays one market (for example BTC/USDT) on every connected exchange, so gaps between lines are price differences (spreads) you can see at a glance. An exchange keeps the same colour on every chart.
Your pair and the watchlist
The first chart shows your pair — click its name to switch to any supported market (BTC/USD, BTC/EUR, BTC/ETH, …). The charts below are a fixed watchlist of the main markets.
Stats in the header
High and Low are the extremes of the visible window. Avg is the live average across exchanges (green when rising, red when falling). Range Δ is the full-window swing, Spread Δ the current gap between the most and least expensive exchange.
Hover for exact values
Move the pointer over a chart to see the time, the price under the cursor and the value of every exchange at that moment.
Measure a move
Press and drag across a chart. A box shows the price difference, the percentage and the duration. The charts pause while you measure — click Resume live or press Esc to continue.

Exchanges panel

Hide or show an exchange
Click an exchange in the panel next to a chart to remove its line. Your choice is remembered per trading pair.
Highlight a line
Hover an exchange in the panel to highlight its line and dim all others.
Missing prices
Not every exchange lists every pair. An exchange without a price shows “—”, and exchanges the server marks inactive are hidden automatically.
Visit the exchange
The arrow icon opens the exchange website in a new tab.

Arranging your workspace

Reorder
Drag a chart by the grip handle in its header to move it up or down.
Resize
Drag the bottom edge of a chart to change its height.
Collapse
Use the collapse button or double-click the header to fold a chart to a single line.
Choose charts
Open Charts in the toolbar to switch whole charts on or off. Fewer charts means less work for slower devices.

Zoom and scroll through time

Zoom
Hold Ctrl (⌘ on Mac) and scroll over a chart, pinch on a trackpad or touch screen, scroll over the time axis, or use the zoom buttons and the + / − keys. Zoom centres on the pointer.
Scroll back in time
Swipe sideways on a trackpad, hold Shift and scroll or drag, drag the time axis, or use ← / →. While you look at history the view stays put even though new prices keep arriving.
Timeline
When zoomed or scrolled, a timeline appears under the toolbar: drag its handle to move through the last minutes, or click anywhere on it to jump there.
Back to live
Click Back to live, double-click a chart, or press 0. Picking a time window also resets the zoom. All charts zoom and scroll together.

Speed and time window

Refresh rate
Choose how often new data arrives: 1 s for everyone, 500, 200 and 100 ms for members (free account).
Time window
Pick how much history is visible. The available windows depend on the refresh rate.
Pause
Press the Live button or the Space key to freeze the charts; data keeps streaming in the background.

Look and feel

Dark or light
Use the sun/moon button in the top bar, or the switches in Settings.
Glass and glow
Glass effects and glowing lines look great on modern hardware. Turn them off in Settings if the page feels slow.
