What is the Market Pulse?

Market Pulse is a comprehensive monitoring system consisting of multiple widgets.

Each widget measures and displays events that are generated by different sources, for example: order flow, order book, options, liquidations, or other special events like stops or icebergs.

Market Pulse allows you to monitor multiple instruments and gain a better understanding of market behavior, all in one place.

Each widget measures and displays events that are generated by different sources, for example: order flow, order book, options, liquidations, or other special events like stops or icebergs.

Each widget in Market Pulse contains a unique algorithm for processing data. They each follow a specific logic chain, and display their output on the widget in an easy-to-understand chart. Users can customize the widget to set up notifications for specific events, or for when a certain threshold is crossed.

Workspaces

scrnsht

Workspaces allows you to save your favorite widget groups and use them across different devices. You can configure this on your laptop and use it on mobile devices, or vice versa. In the workspaces configuration menu, you have the power to create, rename, and delete workspaces.

Mute all

scrnsht

This option mutes all currently working widgets. It is much faster than muting widgets one by one, and is especially helpful if excess sound notifications are annoying you, or you want your device to be quiet for just a moment.

Reordering

You have the power to change the order of widgets, and all this takes is one click of the “Reorder” button:

scrnsht

Drag and drop widgets to change the order.

Choosing a time frame

Each algorithm tracks the deviation from the standard situation on the market. Thus, it can provide alerts when the market moves beyond the normal bounds. The thresholds for such “normal” movement can be defined by users by simply moving the “Threshold” bar. To identify which situation is normal, the algorithm should pick the historical interval for the comparison. In the widget configuration popup, you can select this period yourself:

Short: 5 minutes

Medium: 15-30 minutes

Long: 1 hour

Threshold

This slider defines the minimum threshold (or level) for a sound to be played as a percentage value. The higher this parameter, the fewer sound notifications that will be played.

Audio files

Audio files are used for sound notifications. Different sound files can be set for positive/negative values, such as being based on buyers/sellers. This allows you to set specific sounds, and easily identify the direction of the market based purely on sound notifications.

Volume

This slider controls the volume of the sound alerts for that specific widget. This allows you to prioritize more important widgets with a higher notification volume.

Algorithms

This section contains the algorithms’ descriptions and algorithm-specific control elements.

Volume Pressure

scrnsht

Volume Pressure is an order flow indicator that measures the total buyers and sellers Volume Pressures in the market. It calculates the deviation of the volume pressure from the average across an interval of time.

The percentage value shows how close the current deviation is to the max deviation that was detected on the interval.

All the values will be shown on the Double bar widget.

Price Change

scrnsht

The Price Change calculates the deviation of the last trade price from the average across an interval of time. The percentage value shows how close the current deviation is to the max deviation that was detected on the interval.

All the values will be shown on the Circle widget.

Widget structure

Common elements

scrnsht

All the widgets have a:

  • Widget name.
  • Mute button: to mute/unmute the widget.
  • Close button: to remove the widget.
  • Loading state, which will appear when the data is being calculated, if there are no events to process, or there are connection errors.

Double bar widget

scrnsht

The Double bar widgets contain:

  • The indicator bars with absolute values overlayed on top of them, which are split into two bars: buyers and sellers.
  • The maximum value on the given period.
  • The threshold line, so long as the widget is not muted, will play a sound whenever the threshold is crossed.

Circle widget

scrnsht

The Circle widgets contain:

  • The absolute value of the asset, in the middle and in bold
  • The relative value showing the deviation of the absolute value from the average during the given interval.
  • The indicator circle as a visual representation of the relative value, color coded for the value increase and decrease.
  • The threshold line, so long as the widget is not muted, will play a sound whenever the threshold is crossed.

Sound system

The Market Pulse sound system reacts to changes in the current value of any widget’s tracked asset. It has a configurable threshold, which when crossed causes a sound to be played.

Initially, we used Geiger counters and metal detectors as our reference for developing the Market Pulse sound system. The closer it is to uranium/metal, the higher the frequency and the speed of the sound.

This same concept is used for our algorithms - the frequency of the played sounds depends on the value above the threshold; the higher the threshold-crossing value, the more frequently the sound is played.

Example:

scrnsht

Sound notifications for different bars mean that the corresponding value of that bar in comparison to its previous values has been growing fast enough and has crossed a certain threshold, a threshold that the user can configure.

The more frequently sounds are played, the closer the current value is to the expected maximum value.

So the values can be compared by sound. Let’s look at the Volume Pressure widget:

Example #1: you hear the sound and over time the frequency of the notifications is increasing.

  • This means the relative value is increasing; in other words something big that requires your attention is happening.

Example #2: you hear the sound and over time the frequency of the notifications is decreasing.

  • That means the relative value is decreasing; in other words now the market is stabilizing.

FAQ

Why do I see only delayed widgets? How can I access live widgets?

To get access to live widgets you need to log in.

  • Widgets for some data sources like Binance and Kraken will be immediately live after logging in.
  • To get access to BookmapData widgets (an aggregation of multiple crypto exchanges) you need to purchase the Market Pulse algorithms bundle for Crypto.
  • To get access to TrueData (India) widgets you need to purchase the TrueData Pro package.

How do I set up the Market Pulse Web and Market Pulse add-on for Bookmap?

To start using Market Pulse Web, simply follow this link: https://mpulse.bookmap.com/workspace.

To start the Market Pulse add-on for Bookmap you need to:

  1. Install and activate Bookmap Read more.
  2. Configure the data source Read more.
  3. Subscribe to the instrument Read more.
  4. Install and configure the Market Pulse add-on Read more.

Why does the browser restrict the sound playing?

It depends on the browser, but most popular browsers optimize their performance where possible. This can sometimes mean they disable the scripts that play sound on the Bookmap page if it is not the page in focus.

That means that it is possible that the widget will stop playing sounds after a while if the Market Pulse Web workspace is not in focus.

How do I get access to the Market Pulse API?

We have many different types of API:

  • Web Websocket API to get signals from the widgets
  • Web Algos API to be able to write your own algorithm, place it on our server and use in the workspace, sell it to others, or to get signals via Websocket API.
  • Desktop Java API to get signals from the widgets
  • Desktop Java Algos API to be able to write your own algorithm, place on your computer locally, connect to Bookmap and use it in the Market Pulse add-on. You can also sell it on our marketplace to others or to get signals via Java API.
