01The short version
No advice, no guarantees, no refunds
Everything here is informational. You are solely responsible for your trades, your keys and your risk. Correlation is a statistic, not a prediction — it can be high while both assets crash, or collapse the moment the regime changes.
- Not investment, legal, tax or accounting advice.
- No warranty of accuracy, availability or fitness for any purpose.
- You can lose money, including your entire capital, using crypto markets.
- The data can be wrong or late — exchange feeds fail, servers restart, buffers reset.
- Nothing is stored about you beyond your own browser's local storage.
If any of that is not acceptable, please close this page and do not use the dashboard.
02Not financial advice
The tool displays correlation coefficients and lead/lag estimates computed from public Binance market data. It is not a broker, dealer, portfolio manager, exchange, signals provider or investment adviser, and no content on it should be read as a recommendation to buy, sell, hold, short or lever any asset.
No output of this tool is personalised. The maker does not know your financial position, your objectives, your time horizon, your tax situation or your experience. Any decision you take after looking at the dashboard is your own, made at your own risk and on your own responsibility.
Do your own research
Cross-check anything you see with the exchange itself, your own risk limits and, where needed, a licensed professional in your jurisdiction.
03Market risk
Crypto assets are volatile, trade around the clock and can move double-digit percentages in minutes. Specific risks include, without limitation:
- Total loss: a position can go to zero; leveraged positions can be liquidated.
- Liquidity and slippage: thin order books make exits worse than the screen suggests.
- Exchange and counterparty risk: outages, withdrawal pauses, insolvency, hacks.
- Stablecoin and peg risk: “risk-free” pairs are not risk-free.
- Regulatory risk: access to exchanges can change without notice.
Past co-movement is not a hedge. Two assets that were tightly correlated for weeks can decouple exactly when you need the hedge most.
04Data accuracy & limitations
Numbers come from Binance's public REST and WebSocket endpoints. They are processed in memory by an Express server and rendered in your browser. Every step can introduce error:
- Tick cadence: the mini-ticker stream pushes roughly once per second. It is not a full trade tape and it is not tick-by-tick.
- Rolling windows: r is computed on 60 / 300 / 900 / 3600 one-second log returns. Change the window and the answer changes.
- Multiple comparisons: scanning ±10 to ±40 shifts inflates the best-looking peak. The 0.50 lag guard reduces, but does not eliminate, false positives.
- Linear model: Pearson r only measures linear co-movement; non-linear or conditional relationships are invisible.
- Non-stationarity: correlations drift within minutes. A value is a snapshot of the past window, never a constant.
- Polling delay: the UI refreshes every 3 seconds, so displayed values can already be stale.
- Missing data: reconnects, exchange maintenance, rate limits and server restarts create gaps and reset buffers.
- Clock and latency differences: timestamp alignment between streams is approximate at the 1-second level.
Not a record of truth
Do not use exports for accounting, tax, settlement or compliance purposes. Always reconcile against the exchange's own trade history.
05Availability & third parties
The dashboard depends on services that are not controlled by this project. Any of them can fail, throttle, geo-block or change without notice:
Market data provider. This project is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Binance. Access can be restricted by region (HTTP 451) or by your network.
Free hosting tiers sleep when idle. The first request after a sleep can take tens of seconds and starts with empty buffers.
Corporate firewalls, VPNs and browser extensions can block WebSocket traffic or notifications.
There is no uptime commitment, support contract or maintenance window. Features may change or be removed at any time.
Binance and other product names are trademarks of their respective owners and are used only to describe the data source.
06No performance guarantee
This project makes no claim about profitability, win rate, alpha or risk-adjusted return. Nothing on the site is a track record. Illustrative numbers in the guide (for example “BTC → ETH 0.79”) are examples of how to read a cell, not results to copy.
A correlation reading is descriptive statistics. Turning it into a strategy requires execution, fees, slippage, position sizing, risk limits and continuous validation — none of which this tool provides. Even a correct statistical observation can lose money once real costs and market impact are included.
Never trade with money you cannot afford to lose
Do not borrow to trade, do not use leverage you do not understand, and never treat a dashboard as a substitute for a risk plan.
07Privacy & local storage
There are no accounts, logins, trackers, ads or analytics scripts in this project. What you choose stays in your browser:
- localStorage keeps your leader/follower selection, timeframe, filter, alert settings, theme and saved presets (
ccd.*keys). - Your server keeps price buffers in memory only — no database, no history file. Restarting clears them.
- Your hosting provider may keep standard access logs (IP address, user agent, timestamps) as part of normal operation; that is outside this project's control.
- Exports are generated in your browser from the current snapshot; nothing is uploaded.
Clearing site data removes every saved preference and preset. Do that if you use a shared computer.
08Liability, licence & acceptance
