Command Line Interface

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:

Using the CLI

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.

Getting help

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.
