Changelog / Release Note

Version 4.0 - In development (not published yet)

Version 4.0 is a major update designed to make monitoring faster, signals richer, and the UI more flexible. The Recording / Snapshot Log has been added, so Live Prices can be recorded per symbol and timeframe, viewed in a dedicated window, cleared or reset, and exported, with offscreen recording support and a capped rolling history to keep it lightweight. The Options help system has been rebuilt into dedicated help pages per tab, so the documentation is clearer and easier to maintain.

The Live Prices table has been expanded with a large set of new columns and indicators, including Change % and Range %, candle body and wick percentages, range/ATR, Vol Spike x, RVOL, EMA distance percentages, trend strength, and 24h range/high/low deltas, while preserving modular column control and compact view behavior. Auto Alerts have been refined with Candle Change, Wick Spike, and Vol Spike logic, per‑TF grouping, and open‑bar vs closed‑bar control for real‑time responsiveness. New Custom Alert conditions such as Change % and Range % are now supported, making multi‑condition strategies more expressive without extra manual wiring.

Price Alerts have been upgraded with multiple modes (Classic, Pullback‑trailing, and Step‑trailing), improved Auto Calc behavior, and consistent alert history formatting. The Forecasting system has been strengthened with profiles, weights, and evaluation logic, and RSS/News handling has been improved with offscreen sync, deduplication, and clearer alert routing. Telegram and Discord notifications remain fully supported with encrypted token handling and refined delivery controls.

On the UI side, any popup section can now be detached into its own lightweight window that loads only what it needs; the main popup hides the detached section and restores it when the window closes, and the expanded popup flow is cleaner and avoids duplicates. Internally, the codebase is more modular with clearer separation across background, popup, options, shared, and CSS layers, which makes future maintenance and testing easier without changing the core intent of the tool.

Version 3.0 - Full Desk, Modular Release

Version 3.0 – Full Desk, Modular Release
Version 3.0 is where the extension turns into a full trading desk inside the popup, with a more modular internals and several big feature pillars: Custom Alerts with an Alert Builder, a proper Alert History, a Forecast row with profiles, integrated News/RSS, Backup & Restore and a smarter REST engine. While 2.0 was about adding Futures, automation and macro context, 3.0 is about control, auditability and portability.

On the architectural side, 3.0 reorganises the extension into clear modules for options, popup views, alerts, news and data. Instead of one large block of logic handling everything, there are now dedicated components for live prices, price alerts, the alert builder, history, backup, settings, pulse, ETF, news, forecast and UI rendering. This does not change behaviour directly for the user, but it makes it much easier to evolve each feature independently and keep the desk stable as it grows.

The most visible change for traders is the addition of Custom Alerts and a full Alert Builder. Beyond manual levels and pre-defined auto rules, you can now define your own multi-condition strategies using AND logic, combine several indicators, compare fields to each other instead of just constants, and even require alignment across multiple timeframes. These custom rules respect the same ideas of open-bar vs closed-bar evaluation and cooldown as the Auto Alerts, but they express complete playbooks rather than a single trigger. All of this is tied into a proper Alert History, where every manual, auto, custom and news-based alert is recorded with a timestamp, a type, a human-readable condition and the actual values at the time of firing. You can scroll back through what fired, when and why, and clear the history when you want a fresh slate.

Information flow also gets a major upgrade in 3.0. A dedicated News view aggregates multiple crypto RSS sources and shows them in a clean “Latest” list, with important words highlighted directly in the headlines. Optional news alerts can fire when certain keywords appear, turning headlines into a controllable signal rather than a doomscroll. At the same time, a new Forecast row sits on top of your symbols and timeframes, using profile-based logic to rank what deserves attention next. Profiles such as Trend, Breakout, Mean-reversion and Intraday apply weights and RVOL gates across 1m to 1d, and surface tokens like trend arrows, distance to VWAP, relative volume and timing hints, so you can quickly decide which chart is actually worth opening.

Binance Alpha (AP) is now a first-class market alongside Spot and Futures. AP symbols are available across Live Prices, Price Alerts, Auto Alerts and Custom Alerts, and they flow into the same Alert History and chart view. Alpha data can be sourced in On-Chain, Limit or On-Chain+Limit mode, and the extension respects that selection for prices, 24h stats and klines. AP symbol display is cleaned up for readability while still preserving raw IDs internally, and Open on Binance links are now chain-aware and point directly to the correct token page. AP also plugs into the offscreen REST engine with its own adaptive cadence to reduce rate-limit risk.

3.0 also puts a lot of emphasis on configuration control and portability. Indicators can now be tied to their own timeframe sets per symbol, so for example RSI can live on shorter frames, EMA trend on mid frames and volume on higher frames, instead of sharing one common list. Volume spike detection gets more refined gating, with separate controls for how much progress, body and persistence you require per timeframe. All of these decisions – symbols, layouts, alert rules, profiles, thresholds and toggles – can be backed up and restored via a simple export/import flow, and they play nicely with both local storage and Chrome Sync. This means you can move your entire desk between machines or keep snapshots of your setup over time.

Underneath, the REST engine and offscreen behaviour gain configurable backoff and truly adaptive cadence, adjusting how often data is fetched based on activity and conditions, and reducing the chance of hitting external limits. Combined with the richer Live table (which now exposes more fields like VWAP deviation, Bollinger position, StochRSI %K, ADX and detailed volume) and the ability to toggle whole blocks like Alerts, History, News, ETF or Pulse on and off, version 3.0 completes the transition from a simple helper to a modular, privacy-friendly, full-desk toolkit for Binance Spot, Futures and Alpha traders.

Version 2.0 - Futures, Auto Alerts and Macro Context

Version 2.0 built directly on top of 1.0 and kept all of its functionality, but extended the extension in three important directions: Futures support, automatic alerts, and macro context through Pulse and ETF views. It was the moment where the tool stopped being “just a Spot helper” and started to act like a more complete market desk.

The first big change was that the extension became Spot + Futures aware. Trading links and internal logic were updated so that when an alert fired or when you clicked through from the popup, the extension could open the correct Spot or Futures page on Binance, depending on the symbol and configuration. Internally, data access was extended to include Futures endpoints, and the layouts were adjusted so Live information could be read with Futures context in mind rather than assuming everything is Spot.

The second major addition was an Auto Alerts engine. Instead of only depending on manual price levels, 2.0 introduced a set of pre-defined, indicator-based alerts that could watch the market continuously for common conditions. The engine could trigger on RSI thresholds, EMA crosses, distance between price and EMA, volume spikes and 24h percentage change. Each of these ran on the same background loop but now with a choice between open-bar and closed-bar behaviour: either fire earlier during a forming candle for a more aggressive style, or wait for the bar to close for stricter confirmation. Cooldown and basic filtering were added so the automatic alerts felt useful rather than noisy.

The third pillar of 2.0 was macro context inside the popup. A new Market Pulse view pulled together things like Fear & Greed, BTC and ETH dominance, mempool state, breadth metrics, total crypto market cap and funding/basis snapshots for BTC and ETH. Alongside this, an ETF panel showed BTC and ETH ETF inflow summaries and historical net flows based on public ETF data sources. Together, these gave traders a quick sense of the “big picture” before drilling down into specific pairs or alerts.

Behind the scenes, the offscreen and background logic became more sophisticated than in 1.0, adding rate-limit awareness and a more careful backoff strategy for both Spot and Futures data.

Version 1.0 - Initial Spot Release

Version 1.0 was the first public release of the extension. It focused entirely on Binance Spot trading, giving traders a compact live table and manual price alerts that lived inside the Chrome popup. The goal of this version was simple: provide a fast, tab-free way to scan Spot pairs and set clear alert levels without any API keys.

The Live Prices view in 1.0 worked like a small Spot desk. You could build a list of symbols and timeframes, add new pairs when needed, or reset everything back to a sensible default universe. For each symbol the table always showed the essentials: current price, RSI(14), 24h performance and a combined EMA trend view for the classic 20/50/200 set. On top of that, you could selectively enable extra indicators like individual EMAs, MACD, ATR%, Bollinger Band width and 24h quote volume, depending on how busy you wanted the grid to be. A couple of simple UI toggles let you hide tool buttons or even hide the Live table inside the popup if you preferred a cleaner layout.

Manual Price Alerts were the second core pillar of 1.0. They were built around cross-based conditions, so you could say “alert me when price crosses above this level” or “below that level” and rely on the logic to handle the trigger cleanly. Hysteresis and a configurable minimum repeat time were already present to avoid ping-pong behaviour when price oscillated around a level. You could mark an alert as one-shot, mute individual alerts, and hide the whole alerts panel if you only wanted the table. When a level triggered, the extension raised a notification with a button to open the relevant Spot pair directly on Binance and another button to disable that alert in one click.

In the background, a small worker loop polled prices on a fixed schedule and briefly sped up when the popup was open, while an offscreen helper was mainly responsible for playing alert sounds. There was no concept of Futures, Auto Alerts, News, Forecast, Backup or History at this stage. Version 1.0 was deliberately narrow: a Spot-only live table plus manual, level-based alerts with a bit of noise control and a very lightweight background engine.
