    • Great app. Looks slick. Love the dark theme. Please add support for more exchanges. IMO, TradingView is a better alternative https://www.tradingview.com/

  • Time filters are confusing; candle width vs timescale

    From 1 comment
    • The time filters are broken for me - clicking on '1h' results in a plot of about 3 days.

  • Order book numbers overlap on smaller screens

    From 1 comment
    • On smaller screens, e.g. my 1440x900 screen, the numbers in the order book on the left overlap.

  • Only supports a few exchanges

    From 2 comments
    • Looks great, would love to see some exchanges supported that people outside the US can actually use (GDAX is not accessible to most people in EU).

    • Thanks! There are different markets available, indicated by the white dropdown at the top. Currently supporting GDAX and Gemini, but many more coming soon!

  • Add a currency converter

    From 1 comment
    • Suggestion: Add a 'converter' feature, maybe as a simple JS popup/overlay, so users can type in an arbitrary amount of specified coins/USD and convert between them. A lot of…

Questions

  • What is the tech stack and database

    From 2 comments
    • Looks great, what did you build this with?
      LAMike on HN
    • Do you store the tick data in a database? if so what database do you use? And also, is it a matter of using the API from the exchange and displaying it in your format? Thanks

  • Plans to monetize

    From 2 comments
    • Nice work! I love the layout. I'm curious if you have any plan to monetize in the future? - Or if there is a common way you could monetize a site like this?
      Lufton on HN
    • This must be costing you a lot. Do you have plans to monetize? Great work!

    • This is very nice. I usually watch the combined order book on bitcoinity. I just leave it running in the back ground and check it now and again. One day the IT admin at work…
