WatchTower

Most terminals let you reorder their tabs. Here the tabs are yours.

103 panels across 15 categories, every one placeable on a board you built, named by you, pointed at the market you care about, saved to your account rather than your browser. The cost is that you have to build it, and there is a template for that.

The distinction

Rearranging is not the same as building.

Most terminals

A fixed set of sections designed by somebody else, which you may reorder and sometimes resize.

The limit. The questions you can ask are the ones the sections were built to answer. A question that crosses two of them has no home.

This one

A tab is a board you made. Any of the 103 panels, in any arrangement, sized how you want, saved to your account.

The limit. You have to build it, and an empty grid on day one is harder than a ready-made layout. That cost is real and it is addressed below rather than glossed over.

A board built from chosen panels, on a named tab
A board built rather than accepted, on a tab named by the reader.

What that means in practice

Five things that follow from it.

Every panel is placeable
All 103 of them, across 15 categories, on any tab you make.
A tab is a board, not a section
You name it, choose what goes on it, and set the subject it points at. Retarget the tab and every panel on it follows.
Settings live with the panel
Each panel keeps its own configuration, which is what makes two copies of the same panel useful: the same board twice, on two different currencies.
Workspaces keep jobs apart
A morning read and a research session are different arrangements. Keep both and switch between them rather than rebuilding one into the other.
It follows you
Boards save to the account rather than the browser, so the layout is the same on the desk and on the laptop.

Three marks is present and unrestricted, one is present but limited, none is absent. A fixed layout genuinely wins on the first day, which is the row that matters to a new reader.

Being straight about it

An empty grid is harder than a ready-made one.

Freedom has a cost on day one, and the terminal's own numbers show it: readers who never place a panel do not stay. Selling the blank canvas as pure upside would be the easy line and the wrong one.

So there is a template that builds the whole set of boards in one press, and the picker leads with what most readers place first. Start from the template, delete what you do not use, and you have a layout that is yours without having begun from nothing.

The workspace, answered.

How many panels are there?

103 across 15 categories, and every one can be placed on a board you build.

Can I make my own tabs?

Yes, and that is the difference worth understanding. Most terminals let you rearrange sections somebody else designed. Here a tab is a board you made: you name it, choose what is on it, and point it at the market you care about.

Is a blank grid not harder than a ready-made layout?

On the first day, yes, and it would be dishonest to pretend otherwise. That is why there is a one-press template that builds the full set of boards for you, and why the panel picker leads with what most readers place first. Build from the template and change what does not suit you, rather than starting from nothing.

Do my boards save?

To your account rather than to the browser, so the same layout appears on any machine you sign in from.

Can I have the same panel twice?

Yes, and it is one of the more useful things you can do. Each copy keeps its own settings, so the same comparison on two currencies sits side by side rather than being switched back and forth.

What does the free plan get?

The free plan carries 32 of the 103 panels across 2 boards, and which ones is listed on the pricing page. Everything else is on Pro at $49 a month.
