Large amounts of market data
Prices, trading volume and indicators are constantly changing, producing many separate signals.
What is Markets Understood?
Markets Understood is a market intelligence platform that scans crypto markets for notable and accelerating market activity and provides clear context around those movements.
The platform is designed to bring separate pieces of market data together into a clearer picture. Price is not the only factor: volume, momentum, volatility, market structure and the way a movement develops over time also matter.
The initial focus is on the EUR spot markets of Bitvavo and Kraken. From that foundation, Markets Understood can later expand in a controlled way to other relevant markets and trading platforms.

Why MU?
What problem are we trying to solve?
Crypto markets are constantly moving. A large amount of information is available: prices, trading volume, the strength of a movement and different signals that can provide information about the market.
The problem is often not a lack of information. The challenge is quickly identifying what matters, why a price is moving and which signals deserve additional attention.
Markets Understood is designed to organize that information. The platform brings market activity and context together so you can see more quickly what is happening, why a movement stands out and which risks or scenarios may be relevant.
Movement without context
A rapid price movement on its own says little about the quality, strength or risk of that movement.
Difficult to prioritize
It takes time to determine which movements genuinely deserve attention and which are mainly noise.
From movement to insight
How MU builds market intelligence
Markets Understood uses multiple steps rather than relying on a single signal. Market data and indicators are considered together, while risk, market structure and relevance provide additional context. This creates a clearer picture of why a market movement may deserve attention.

EUR-first
Starting with the EUR market
Markets Understood starts with the EUR spot markets of Bitvavo and Kraken. This gives MU a clear and recognizable foundation for European users. Focusing on euro trading pairs makes it easier to compare market activity, risk and potential trading scenarios within one consistent MU workflow.
For users trading in euros, the market remains immediately recognizable: prices are displayed in euros and do not first need to be converted through another asset or currency. From this foundation, MU can later expand in a controlled way to other relevant markets and trading platforms.
Bitvavo EUR
Market information is built around trading pairs that are traded directly against the euro.

The same MU approach is applied to relevant EUR markets on Kraken.

MU shows what is happening in the market
Markets Understood looks for notable changes, for example when price, volume and momentum begin to change at the same time.
The goal is not to create hype, but to make it clearer why a movement stands out and what context surrounds it. A change in price alone, for example, says less than price, trading volume, momentum and market structure simultaneously showing an unusual pattern.

What MU is and is not
MU is
- Market information and context
- Explanation of notable market activity
- Structured trading scenarios
- Insight into risk and market structure
MU is not
- A guarantee of profit
- Personal investment advice
- A call for mass buying
- An automatic buy or sell order
Risk and responsibility
No guarantee of profit
Markets Understood helps you better understand market information. That does not mean that a forecast, scenario or trade plan will always produce the expected outcome.
The crypto market can change quickly and losses are always possible. MU therefore does not guarantee profit and does not provide personal investment advice. The final trading decision always remains yours.
