Choose which exchanges to compare
The exchange switch in the header picks the exchanges every page compares. Four are on to start with; add any of the others, or every one a page can show.
Add or remove an exchange
The count in the header, such as 4/28, says how many exchanges are live on the page, out of every one the site has. Press it to open the switch: each exchange is listed with a box. Tick one to switch it on, on every page; tick it again to switch it off. The last one on stays on.
Most exchanges load their code only once you switch them on, so a new one says Loading… for a moment before Live. If it says Couldn't load, switch it off and on again.
Your choice is kept in this browser. A link someone sends you can carry a choice of its own: opening it switches yours to theirs.
Connect all and Add exchange
The status bar over each index and on each coin’s page ends with two buttons:
- Add exchange opens the switch.
- Connect all switches on every exchange that page can show, and keeps the rest you have on. The switch has the same button at its top.
An exchange with nothing on the page you’re on says so in the switch, as in “Doesn't list this market”.
Pages that compare every exchange
The scoreboards, each exchange’s page and Signals compare every exchange of their kind, whatever you have on, since a ranking of a few wouldn’t be a ranking. The switch is locked while they show, and your own choice comes back the moment you leave. The futures and options pages read every exchange with options or dated futures.
To have only yours there, switch on Only exchanges I use. It’s one choice for Signals, the scoreboards and the exchanges’ pages, remembered, and it unlocks the switch.
