The Flicker app

A notification when price enters a zone

Install

Connect an exchange

Flicker reads your positions with a read-only key and shows the exit on each one. It never places orders.

  • The exit on every position

    Liquidation with its distance from mark, and the stop and target where your exchange shares them.

  • What you'd lose if every stop fills

    One figure across your accounts, from entry, as a share of portfolio value.

  • Your record and a weekly review

    Closed trades as a record, in R where the stop at entry was read, and a review of each week.

Free for up to 4 exchange accounts; every portfolio feature is included.

Supported exchanges

8 exchanges, most used first. Each one syncs positions, balances and order history.

Read-only, by design

What a read-only key allows, and what Flicker does with it.

API key permissions

  • ReadSee positions, balances and ordersOn
  • TradePlace or cancel ordersOff
  • WithdrawMove funds outOff
Illustration. Each exchange names these permissions in its own words.
  • The key can only read

    Create it with read access and nothing else. Where the exchange reports a key's permissions, Flicker refuses one that can trade or withdraw.

  • Flicker never trades

    It reads positions, balances and orders. It never places an order or moves funds from your account.

  • Limited to Flicker's address

    Restrict the key to Flicker's IP address, so the exchange refuses it from anywhere else.

  • Remove it any time

    Removing an account deletes its key and everything synced from it: positions, balances, order history and the record built from them.

How it works

Three steps, the same on every exchange.

  1. Make a read-only key

    Step by step for each exchange.

  2. Paste it

    Flicker checks what the key can do where the exchange reports it, and refuses one that can trade or withdraw.

  3. See every exit

    Stop, target, liquidation, or no stop, on each position.

Frequently asked questions

Exchange not listed? Request an exchange

  • Is it safe to connect an exchange?

    Flicker asks for a read-only key, only reads with it, and never places orders or moves funds. Where your exchange reports a key's permissions, Flicker refuses one that can trade or withdraw. A read key still shows your balances to anyone who holds it, so keep it private and restrict it to Flicker's IP address.

  • What does Flicker read?

    Your open positions, balances and order history. On Hyperliquid, OKX, and BloFin, it also reads the stop and target orders resting on each position; the other exchanges don't share them with Flicker yet.

  • How long does it take?

    Each exchange's guide lists its steps: make a read-only key, then paste it here. Positions and balances are read while you connect; order history loads in the background and can take a few minutes. After that, Flicker syncs on each visit and once a day.

  • What does it cost?

    Nothing for up to 4 exchange accounts, with every portfolio feature included and no card needed. Pro connects more.

  • Which exchanges can I connect?

    8 exchanges today: Binance, Hyperliquid, OKX, Bybit, BingX, BloFin, Gate, and Kraken. Each one has its own step-by-step guide.

  • My exchange isn't listed. What can I do?
