We designed Deribet to be as easy as possible to use, that is why we stripped down the UI from every non-necessary element. What you see is the result of months of optimization and user feedback.
There are three main components in the UI
THE CHART
The main part of the screen displays a candlestick chart, which is a type of financial chart used to describe price movements of an asset. Each candlestick typically shows one day of price data with four points: the open, high, low, and close prices. Available resolutions for data are 1 second, 5 seconds, 15 seconds and 30 seconds. We also support all technical indicators such as RSI, MACD, MA, EWMA, and more, be sure to check them all out as they will be of great help during your trading journey.
THE TRADING PANEL
This section is for placing trades and entering trade parameters such as:
Amount: The amount the user wants to allocate for the prediction.

Balance: The current balance of the user's account.
Duration: The length of time for the prediction, which can be set by the user.

Prediction Buttons: These are the "UP" and "DOWN" buttons, which the user can press to start a prediction.
THE TRADING DATA
This area displays the details of trade which are currently open as well as the closed ones. It shows:
