Rene!
Nice idea, too bad it is discontinued!
It is not.
Just on ice.
The googlefinance function I have already implemented, it needs a few more things to be changed, then it is good to go again.
My main question is: did it help you or someone else to better anticipate market movements?
First of all: Yes, I got a really nice donation once, so at least someone did appreciate it enough, and is or was using it.
And: Yes, especially while BTC was still moving slower (approx 1 year ago), those psychological levels were quite instructive. People did react to when the price had crossed them.
China played a larger role back then, and this tool helped me to realize when the Chinese markets came close to whole-number-levels.
I guess I should add a Korean exchange now.
Also, I often used it simply as a shortcut to quickly open bitcoinwisdom *g* (left side)
And the time table "Who is awake right now?" was sometimes also really useful (top right)
To get a feeling for the range of arbitrage between the different exchanges was useful too (bottom right)
the trading volumes I watch with
www.pairtracker.com I see crazy things: sometimes volumes of a certain pair go up by 850% within three minutes!
Often others are alerted as well, and a tokens daily volume can easily grow a hundredfold
or more within a few hours - with predictable effect on price.
That is a very cool tool you have built there.
I will keep it running, with 3min/5%/100BTC, for a while, to get a feeling for it.
First ideas:
* "update now" button (to skip waiting once)
* please let me fill in numbers with the keyboard, not only the arrow updown buttons
*
http://www.pairtracker.com?t=3&p=5&v=100 to be able reopen with the same settings, without manual interaction
* also show the PRICE, somehow. Perhaps no need to keep it in every column cell, but perhaps the last price once, per row? I need to see the price.
* per cell I do not need absolute volume AND relative volume change. Perhaps put the absolute volume only once per row, and the relative volume change into each cell?
* (perhaps perhaps: per cell relative volume change AND relative price change?)
* colors not ternary (green red white), but as a range of (log?) volume proportional color intensity?
* poloniex? hitbtc? binance?
* sound alert above a given volume change percentage?
just some ideas. Perhaps you want to keep improving it?
If you have ideas and find the time, you can reciprocate:

not 100% agree - those two projects are pretty different.
But I really like your tool.
Perhaps I'll add a page/link/popup/hover-div "other useful tools" - then yours will be there for sure.

Cool, I am an alumni too, however only of the short intro class, 2015.
Very much enjoyed that, learned a lot - esp. how much I already did know ;-)
Also really cool to have been a student of Andreas Antonopoulos.
Happy trading!
Andreas
