Set up the site for your exchanges

Set up asks which exchanges you trade on, your fee tiers if you like, and how the site should look; then every page compares just your exchanges.

Set up’s three steps: two exchanges ticked under Your exchanges, then a volume typed for one of them under Fee tiers, then You’re set. A drawing, not a real screen.

On a first visit the site opens Set up: three short steps that make every page about the exchanges you use. Every step can be skipped, and what you choose is kept in this browser, not in an account.

The three steps

  1. Your exchanges: tick every exchange you trade on. Under each name is what it has on the site.
  2. Fee tiers, if you like: your volume on each exchange, or your holdings where its tiers count them, for spot and perpetuals apart. Every fee on the site is then worked out at your tier. Leave a box empty for the standard rate, or press Skip this step.
  3. You’re set: Only exchanges I use is on, so the scoreboards, Signals and the futures and options pages compare only your exchanges too. Under it come your currency, suggested from your browser’s region, the theme, the price colours and Page introductions, off until you turn them on. Done keeps it all.

Skip it, or finish it later

Skip for now closes it, and it won’t open by itself again, but until it’s done Set up stays in the header; on a phone, a dot on the Settings gear leads to it. Skipped on its first step, the site keeps Kraken, Coinbase, OKX and Hyperliquid on; skipped later, the exchanges you ticked.

The button in its corner, or Escape, puts it away into Set up in the header, where it waits at the step you were on. Arriving from a search engine, or by a link that opens a page a particular way, you get a small card at the foot of the page instead, and the steps on your next page.

Until it’s done, each page’s status bar says what it’s reading, such as “The 4 default exchanges”, with Choose yours beside it.

Change it later

Your exchanges is the first part of Settings: how many exchanges you chose and whether you gave fee tiers, each with Edit, which opens the same steps, with Save to keep a change. Reset everything in Settings forgets it all, as on a first visit.
