Pop-up alerts
Your alerts pop up in one compact stack. Read a trade at a glance and open its market in Pro.
Your alerts pop up over the board in one compact stack, wherever you are in Pro. They come from the alert rules you set up, like trades from wallets you track or a price crossing a level: Alerts shows how to set them up. Pro's own short notices, like an order that didn't go through, land in the same stack.
Reading a card
A trade card shows who traded, what they did and where. The top line is the trader. If you've given the wallet a nicknameNicknameYour own name for a wallet, in a colour you pick. Pro shows it in place of the wallet's name everywhere. or tags, you see those instead of a bare address: Traders explains how to mark wallets. Under it is the trade itself: Buy or Sell, the outcome, the size in $ and the price in ¢. Big trades show the amount in yellow.
The bottom line is the market. Click it and the market opens right in Pro, in the market window. Click the trader's name for their trader window.
The stack
New cards land on top and older ones tuck in behind. Each card closes by itself after a few seconds, or with its ×.
Point at the stack and it holds still, so nothing disappears while you read. Move to the edge of the cards behind, or to the "3 more" chip under it, and it spreads out so you see every card in full. Move away and the timers start again.
Where alerts appear
Click Alerts in the workspace bar. Under Position, pick one of six spots along the top or bottom of the screen, or turn off Show alerts to keep the board quiet.
The switch at the top decides where your choice applies. All workspaces is the default for every board. This workspace gives the current board its own setting, say alerts at the bottom on a board where the top is busy, or none at all on a board you only watch.
Even with alerts hidden, errors still show, so a rejected order never goes unnoticed.
Tips
- On a board with a tall scanner along the top, move alerts to the bottom so they never cover a row you're about to click.
- Mark the wallets you follow with nicknames and tags in Traders. A card then tells you who traded before you read the amount.
- Saw a trade worth following? Click its market and trade it in the market window without leaving your board.
