Everything people ask about WatchCrypto. Not answered here? Ask on Telegram.

What is WatchCrypto?

A free crypto trading terminal: real-time charts, orderbooks, trade tape, screener, and price alerts across multiple exchanges in one customizable workspace — with direct trading on Hyperliquid and Bulk.

Is WatchCrypto really free?

Yes. No subscriptions, no tiers, no paywalled features, no ads. Nothing about the terminal is metered — here's how WatchCrypto makes money.

Which exchanges does WatchCrypto support?

Live streaming data from Binance (spot and perpetuals), Bybit, Coinbase, Kraken, Hyperliquid (perpetuals and spot), Bulk and Lighter (perpetuals). Trading is supported on Hyperliquid and Bulk perpetuals. Browse everything on the markets page.

Do I need an account?

Not for the core product. Charts, orderbooks, markets, and the screener work without signing up. You need an account for price alerts, portfolio tracking, and trading.

What timeframes are available?

From 1-second candles up to monthly: 1s, 5s, 10s, 15s, 30s, 1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 2h, 4h, 6h, 12h, 1d, 3d, 1w, and 1M — every timeframe live, tick by tick (3d and 1M where the venue provides them).

What indicators and drawing tools are included?

64 built-in indicators — VWAP, Ichimoku, SuperTrend, ADX, Bollinger Bands, RSI, MACD, and more — with no per-chart cap, plus 89 drawing tools: trend lines, Fibonacci and Gann tools, pitchforks, Elliott waves and chart patterns, shapes, notes and tables, each with its settings, on desktop and phone.

How does trading on Hyperliquid work?

Connect your Hyperliquid account in the terminal and trade directly from the chart — order form, positions, and open orders in one dock.

Is WatchCrypto a Cryptowatch alternative?

Yes — it was built to bring back the multi-exchange terminal workflow after Kraken shut Cryptowatch down in September 2023. Full comparison here.

How is it different from TradingView?

TradingView is a general charting platform; WatchCrypto is a crypto terminal with orderbooks, tape, and execution — and none of the free-tier caps. Full comparison here.

Where do I report bugs or request features?

On Telegram or X / Twitter. Exchange requests are welcome — coverage grows based on what traders ask for.
