Some days the whole market drifts together. On other days a handful of coins break away from the pack, and it helps to see which ones before you start scrolling through charts. The app opens on a clean list of widely held coins with their latest reference prices, sorted the way you need them: the busiest, the biggest gainers and losers, the largest by market cap or by volume. Tap any coin for its candlestick chart, where you can switch between short and long periods, lay moving averages over the candles and hold a finger on the chart to read a single candle. The Pace tab is the part we enjoy most. It compares each coin's last day with its own habit over the past week and sorts the market into four plain states: accelerating, cooling, reversing or steady. You can watch the most traded coins side by side in lanes, scan a board of every coin with its pace across a month, a week, a day and an hour, or see where each price sits inside its daily range. It describes how prices have moved; it can't tell you where they go next. When an idea turns into a decision, the desk keeps the record. Enter a buy or sell at the last price, set a limit that fills when the price gets there, or convert one asset into another in a single step. Average cost, fees and results are worked out for you, and your history can be exported as a file. Price lines and a pace trigger point out moves while the app is open, and a small toolkit helps with position size, blended cost and the distance to a target. A guide of short articles walks through each screen and the ideas behind it. Figures are shown for study and comparison, and no investment advice is provided. We hope the fast days feel a little easier to read.
