The command line interface is great for sending bulk commands to Cryptowatch, cutting out all the mouse-wagging and button clicking that eats up precious trading time. You can find the command line interface in the Utility Belt on the right-hand side of the screen:
The command line interface can also be opened using hotkeys:
Operating System | Hotkey |
Windows / Linux |

Type a command and hit Enter
. The commands currently available are go
, ls
, clear
and help
.
go <resource>
will let you navigate between Cryptowatch pages.
Example:
go assets
will bring you to the Cryptowatch Assets page.
​
ls <resource>
will provide a requested list.
Example:
ls assets
will return a list of all available assets on Cryptowatch.
​
Modifiers <exchange> <pair> <interval>
can be used with the go charts
command to build a specific chart.
Example:
go charts kraken ethusd 1d
returns a daily chart of ETHUSD on Kraken.
The Tab
key can also be used for autocomplete suggestions.
You can send the help
command to see what you can do in the terminal. You can also send help as a flag by adding --help
or -h
to a command for more information about it.
For example: sending ls -h
will give you information on what you can do with the ls
command.
Below you will find all the commands you can use in the Command Line Interface. First, a special "flag" you can use after any command to learn more about that command - for example, to use the -h
flag with the ls
command, enter this in the CLI: ls -h
