OpenMarket
OpenMarket is a browser-based market intelligence and charting platform that aggregates real-time and historical data across cryptocurrencies, equities, futures, options, forex, and prediction markets into a single interface. In its marketing, the company uses promotional taglines such as "the new interface to the world's markets," and describes the product as offering "stocks, crypto, futures, options, forex and prediction markets on one live canvas."[1] It is accessible through a web browser, is free to start, and positions itself as an alternative to established charting services. The platform's account on X was created in November 2024.[2]
Overview
In its marketing materials, OpenMarket describes the platform as "a social, professional-grade charting platform that lets you see, build, and share how money actually moves—across crypto, equities, and prediction markets."[3] The company frames the product around four actions performed on a single chart: seeing market structure through visualizations such as order-book heatmaps, footprints, cumulative volume delta (CVD) and liquidation maps; asking questions in natural language to find markets, indicators or tools; building custom market logic in code; and acting on signals through alerts delivered to external channels. The company describes this goal in its marketing using taglines such as "everything the market is telling you, on one canvas. See it, ask it, build on it and act on it, without leaving the chart."[1]
The platform operates entirely in the browser and is free to begin using. To access the full feature set — including saved workspaces, custom indicators, and personalized settings — a user must register an account, which OpenMarket states can be done through three secure registration methods.[4] The company also documents an OpenMarket Data API and provides guidance on obtaining an API key.[4]
OpenMarket's documentation and marketing include a trading risk disclosure stating that "trading futures, perpetual contracts, stocks and digital assets involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every person," that "the possibility of profit is not equal to the possibility of loss, and past performance is not indicative of future results," and that "nothing on OpenMarket or its social media is investment advice."[1][3]
Market Coverage
OpenMarket aggregates a broad range of asset classes onto one canvas, and the company reports coverage figures for each category. In crypto, it claims "4,000+ perpetuals and spot pairs across 29 venues," with trade-by-trade data from those venues "lined up on one clock."[1] For equities, the company states it lists "5,500+ stocks and ETFs listed on NYSE and Nasdaq," using examples such as NVDA, AAPL and TSLA.[1] Futures coverage is drawn from CME Group across index, rates, energy and metals contracts, while the options category spans seven venues and combines "crypto and CME options in one chain, with implied volatility and skew."[1]
Forex coverage includes "1,200+ currency pairs, plus gold and silver," and the platform also carries prediction markets with "live odds on rates, elections and world events," sourced in part from Polymarket.[1][4] An economic-data layer provides macroeconomic series such as CPI, GDP and non-farm payrolls (NFP), which the company reports at "5,600+ series from 40 publishers."[1] Across all categories, OpenMarket states the platform spans "16,000+ markets and data series," "29 crypto venues, trade by trade," "80+ built-in indicators," and "24/7 order flow and liquidations."[1]
The company has continued to expand coverage. On October 2, 2025, it announced that it shows consolidated volume from NYSE, Nasdaq, other US exchanges and off-exchange trades, with live pre-market and after-hours pricing.[2] It later added Solana memecoins, which it charts "from their first trade" and surfaces through a feature called Pulse that tracks which memes are being discussed most in real time, allowing users to pull up a chart and trade in one click.[2][1]
Terminal and Order-Flow Tools
OpenMarket's core workspace is organized around a Terminal containing a set of widgets for monitoring market activity. Documented Terminal tools include a News Feed for real-time market sentiment and breaking news across crypto and macro sectors; a Tape for granular trade-execution flow; an Order Book for aggregated market depth and liquidity; an Order Book Delta that tracks where liquidity is being added or removed; and an Order Book DOM, a depth-of-market interface for execution and liquidity shifts.[4] Additional widgets provide Volume Stats, Liquidity Stats and Market Stats for monitoring buy/sell pressure, book stability and microstructure over rolling 24-hour periods, alongside a Trade & Liquidations panel and a Watchlist that streams multiple assets across exchanges with customizable metrics.[4]
A central focus of the platform is order-flow analysis. OpenMarket documents an order-flow suite built around footprint charts, TPO (Market Profile), heatmaps, DOM, tape and CVD, with guidance on which tool answers which question.[4] The footprint tool lets a user open a candle and read bid and ask volume at every price level, along with delta, imbalances and the point of control (POC); it is accompanied by a "footprint playbook" documenting patterns such as absorption, stacked imbalances, exhaustion, unfinished auctions and delta divergence, and a settings reference covering display modes, imbalance detection, value area, liquidation markers and colors.[4] The TPO tool reads where the market accepts and rejects value using letters, POC and value area, with its own playbook of Market Profile patterns including value-area rotation, the 80% rule, poor extremes, single prints and initial balance.[4] A dedicated Liquidations feature tracks real-time forced liquidations across the entire crypto market.[4]
The company has also refined live-data granularity for all users. On October 1, 2025, it stated that every user can view the order book at five-times-finer resolution on supported assets for free, with "HD" and "4K" modes offering progressively more depth and detail as liquidity shifts around price.[2] A later update introduced second-level and monthly charts, allowing users to zoom into 5-, 15
- and 30-second candles or out to monthly, quarterly, six-month and yearly bars, with intervals grouped into seconds, minutes, hours and days.[2]
Charting and Indicators
OpenMarket's charting environment supports multiple chart types, drawing tools, price alerts and keyboard control. The company states the platform provides 99 drawing tools across nine toolbar groups, and chart appearance can be set to dark or light mode with six color themes and per-chart color overrides; some appearance settings save to the user's account and others to the active workspace.[4] Users assemble complete trading setups as Workspaces, which include a multi-chart grid and terminal widgets and can apply or publish community layouts. One documented view, Watch, displays sixteen charts at once showing funding, open interest or CVD across the whole board.[4][1]
Indicators are drawn from a single searchable library and include funding, open interest, liquidations, order flow, volume profiles and classic oscillators.[4] A distinct options analytics suite provides twelve chart-native indicators built from Deribit's live options board, covering dealer positioning, walls and magnets, the volatility surface and live options flow, with a primer titled "How the options math works" explaining how dealer hedging moves price, the greeks and gamma exposure (GEX) math, and how dealer inventory is estimated from the trade tape.[4] The options tools include an options dashboard of eleven positioning KPIs; GEX profile, heatmap and curve visualizations drawn against price, history or the strike axis, each marking call wall, put wall, gamma flip and max pain; options flow and flow-by-expiry columns sized by traded volume; a flow pulse scoreboard of net call and put flow over one-hour, four-hour and twenty-four-hour windows; and volatility tools including an IV smile, term structure, options surface, a vol matrix of ATM IV, risk reversals, butterfly and open interest, and an implied-move calculator.[4]
wrun and kScript Scripting
OpenMarket allows users to write custom market logic in code that runs live on any market. On October 5, 2025, the company introduced wrun, positioning it as an alternative to TradingView's proprietary Pine Script language. The company states that, unlike Pine Script — which runs only on TradingView's infrastructure — wrun uses an open language with familiar TypeScript syntax and compiles to WebAssembly, so scripts can run in the browser while a user charts, or in OpenMarket's cloud when the code is kept private.[2][1] The company states that wrun can read "data other chart languages can't read," including aggressive buys and sells per exchange, order-book levels, funding and open interest, exposed as plain numbers.[1]
The platform's documentation describes a scripting system named kScript with closely matching capabilities — building and sharing high-performance indicators with direct access to raw market data.[4] OpenMarket provides a worked example, a script named "aggregated-cvd.ts," that computes cumulative volume delta with a one-sigma band. The example uses close price together with buy and sell trade volume (filtered by side), accumulates CVD by adding buy volume and subtracting sell volume each bar, and outputs a CVD line, upper and lower bands derived from a standard-deviation object, and a sign value.[1] Any condition a user can express in code can become a shareable, publishable alert.[1]
AI Integration
OpenMarket integrates with external AI assistants so that natural-language instructions can drive the chart. The company describes a "bring your own AI" model in which a user pastes a single sentence into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or Codex, signs in once, and the assistant then operates the charts while the user watches; the documented agent list includes Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex and Claude Code.[1] A sample agent interaction shows the assistant switching the chart to BTC-PERP, adding a 20-period exponential moving average, marking the latest price at 84,556.0, and reporting that "BTC is 1.8% above its 20-bar average, and the line sits on the last trade."[1] The platform also references an assistant named Kata that can write an indicator from a plain-language description of what it should do.[1]
Alerts extend across these layers: the company states users can set alerts on price, odds or their own script and have them delivered to Telegram, Discord, email or a webhook.[1]
Community, Hub and Education
OpenMarket emphasizes a social dimension, stating that users can "trade socially, globally" by sharing charts and ideas with a community analyzing the same events, whether a CPI print, an election or a breakout in gold.[3] The platform includes a Hub for discovering and managing community-built indicators and suites, within which the kScript Hub is documented as the library for custom-coded indicators and suites developed in the kScript ecosystem.[4] An Academy provides educational material covering market mechanics and advanced trading strategies, and a referrals program lets users grow the community and unlock what the company calls institutional-grade features by inviting other traders.[4]
Reception
OpenMarket has highlighted commentary from users on X, which it quotes on its site while noting that "testimonials may not be representative of the experience of other users and are not a guarantee of future performance or success."[1] Commentator Miles Deutscher described the platform on September 28 as "genuinely insane that this is free," calling it "a 100% free alternative to TradingView" with "hundreds of indicators, free charting, a learning academy, & more."[1] On September 29, a user identified as Roan wrote that he did not understand "why everyone is NOT using this 100% free alternative to TradingView," asserting that "it does everything TradingView charges $2,399/year for FREE," and another user, Luckshury, said he had "been using @openmarket_xyz for a while" and offered a real trade breakdown using it.[1]
