DESK vs CoinGlass

Where CoinGlass is stronger
- Derivatives data from many exchanges, updated all day.
- The liquidation heatmap, which DESK does not have.
- A cheap subscription and a self-serve API.
- Apps for iOS and Android.
Where DESK is different
- Who holds the futures: leveraged funds, asset managers and dealers in CME and Coinbase futures, from the CFTC.
- The long cycle before today’s candle — observations, not signals.
- The world economy, company pages, news, a journal and a community are in the same price.
- If you trade derivatives intraday, CoinGlass is built for that.
