How to pick the asset and timeframe you read, and what changes on the page when you do.

Find an asset

Type a name, a symbol or a pair into the search field in the header. Results show the asset and its pair; pick one and every per-asset card on the page switches to it. You can also open the pair selector next to the search field.

Read the asset strip

On per-asset pages, the asset strip under the page title shows the pair, its latest price and change, when the reading was last updated and the engine's confidence in it, plus rank and supply figures.

Each asset is analysed on its main market, spot or futures. Supporting data such as funding and open interest always comes from futures.

Pick a timeframe

The timeframe bar offers ten timeframes: 5m, 15m, 30m, 1H, 2H, 4H, 6H, 8H, 12H and 1D. Market-wide views start from 15m. The highlighted timeframe applies to every card on the page.

Locked assets and timeframes

Your plan decides which assets and timeframes you can open. Locked ones stay visible with the plan that unlocks them. If you open a per-asset page for an asset your plan does not include, Antick switches to the first asset your plan does include.
