Beginner's guide

Flip between cards, spot the glow, and learn how to read the radar like a game. Each section gives you a mini win you can reuse every session.

Back to radar

Level 1

Spot the header

Exchange + pair + contract in one glance.

Level 2

Read the metrics

Price, Funding, OI, Volume, Liq., Divergence, Signal score.

Level 3

Act on context

Combine extremes to spot squeezes early.

Signals

What the numbers mean

Price

Shows how much price moved last hour and last 24h. Green is up, red is down.

Look for: Steady green with rising volume = momentum. Red while OI climbs = shorts piling in.

Funding

Fee between longs and shorts. Positive: longs pay shorts. Negative: shorts pay longs.

Look for: Extreme positive = longs overcrowded; extreme negative = shorts overcrowded (squeeze fuel).

Open interest (OI)

How many contracts are open. Up = more positions added. Down = positions closing.

Look for: Price down + OI up = new shorts entering; Price up + OI up = new longs chasing.

Volume change

How trading volume changed vs. yesterday.

Look for: Rising volume confirms a move; fading volume means the move may be weak.

Liquidations

Dollar value of positions force-closed in the last 24h.

Look for: Spikes show panic or a squeeze already in motion.

Divergence

When funding and price point opposite ways.

Look for: Price up + funding negative = crowded shorts; price down + funding positive = crowded longs.

Liq. proximity

How close many traders are to stops or liquidation.

Look for: Higher means a small move can trigger forced exits fast; low means calmer.

Signal score

0–100 strength meter blending all signals (price, funding, OI, volume, liquidations, AI).

Look for: 0 = sleepy setup. 100 = everything is firing and big moves are likely.

AI bounce 42%-

Try it

Switch Standard ↔ Gold and note how Funding, OI, Volume, and Signal score jump when crowding builds.

Apply it

On the real radar, hunt for funding extremes + OI build + rising volume to spot squeeze risk early.

Tools

How to use the radar tools

Sorts

Switch between auto-curated impact, divergence spikes, funding stress, OI build-up, or AI bounce.

Use it when: Use auto-curated to see the best setups now; switch to divergence when you want squeeze risk.

Favorites

Star the pairs you care about and filter to only see them.

Use it when: Perfect for keeping just your watchlist visible during busy sessions.

Compare

Pin two cards side-by-side to see funding, divergence, OI, price, and AI metrics together.

Use it when: Great for pair trades or checking which market has the stronger crowding.

Filters

Limit by exchange or set minimums (price moves, funding, OI, divergence, etc.).

Use it when: Use when noise is high and you only want extremes (e.g., funding < -0.05, OI change > 5%).

Alerts (PRO)

Set triggers on funding, price, or OI and get notified instantly.

Use it when: Helps you step away without missing your levels; keep triggers tight to avoid spam.

Paper trades (PRO)

Log simulated entries with stop/target and track P&L as prices update.

Use it when: Practice sizing and stop discipline before risking capital.

Combo

Favorites + Compare

Bookmark pairs, then put two side-by-side to see who’s more crowded.

Flow check

Funding + Volume

Extreme funding + rising volume = potential squeeze fuel.

Calm mode

Liq. proximity low

Low liq. proximity = breathing room; look elsewhere for action.
