Coinigy

What it is

A hosted workspace that puts several exchange accounts behind one screen — charts, a portfolio built from connected accounts, order entry, alerts, a screener and a set of small research tools. It is one of the oldest products in this catalogue: the help centre's earliest articles date from February 2018 and the historical-data archive it sells starts in 2014.

The shape is the classic one. You give it API keys; it draws the charts, tracks the balances and sends the orders. Charting reaches further than trading does — of the 38 exchanges on the vendor's supported-exchanges table, all 38 can be charted, 20 report balances and 13 accept orders. That gap is normal for the category and it is the number to read first.

Beyond the ticket there are four named tools, all Pro-tier: a screener, the ArbMatrix for cross-exchange spreads, Returns Radar for historical performance by month and quarter, and The Crypt, which is a browser of price and listing history for dead coins on defunct exchanges. The last one is a good joke on a product this old, and it is also the most honest thing on the site about how much of its venue list has stopped existing.

The chart is not Coinigy's. The web app carries TradingView AutoSave and TradingView Styles as user preferences in fourteen languages, handles chart events tagged tradingView, and loads its library from a Coinigy-hosted URL rather than from TradingView's — the deployment shape of TradingView Advanced Charts. The release note for UI v2.43.0 on 29 June 2023 lists a "Tradingview charting library upgrade" and four bug fixes against the TradingView chart by name. So the 75-plus indicators the pricing page advertises are the library's indicators, on the library's release schedule.

Pricing

Three tiers and no billing-period control on the page. Starter is free, Pro Trader is $18.66 a month and API Dev Pro is $99.99 a month, all printed as "per month" with nothing saying whether an annual commitment is assumed. That is the one number on this card that could not be checked properly: there is no toggle to flip, no "billed annually" line in the markup and no second figure hidden in it. What the checkout charges is not visible from outside it.

The free tier is real but thin. Starter carries the connected accounts, the charts, the portfolio monitoring, the mobile app and e-mail support, with a 7-day trial of the paid features on top. The app's own upgrade prompt names what it does not have: unlimited wallet tracking, price and volume alerts, stop-limit orders, SMS alerts, the ArbMatrix and unlimited session length. Sessions on the free tier time out, which for a screen you leave open all day is the limit that bites.

Payment is by card, PayPal, Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, which is worth noting because several competitors have stopped taking crypto.

Historical data is priced separately and per data-month. Raw tick data is $24 a data-month on a standard market and $36 on a premium one; minute bars are $18 and $27, hourly $12 and $18, daily $5.10 and $7.50. It arrives as a tab-delimited CSV by e-mail, it is explicitly not for resale, and it needs a signed data agreement approved by a staff member before the order can go through. Nothing about that flow is self-service.

Data & coverage

The venue list is the problem with this card. Thirty-eight exchanges are listed, and the list has not been maintained. FTX International is still on it, four years after the exchange collapsed. Coinbase Pro is listed as a separate venue under its old GDAX code, OKX appears as OKEX, HTX as Huobi Pro, and there is no Hyperliquid, no Bitget and no WOO X — the venues a crypto trader opened in the years the list stopped moving.

Three different exchange counts appear on the same website. The supported-exchanges page says "over 45" in prose above a table of 38; the API page says 39. Only the table has names in it.

The derivatives coverage is likewise of its period: Binance Futures, BitMEX, Deribit and OKCoin Futures, all chart-only, with no funding-rate, open-interest or liquidation analytics anywhere in the product. If positioning data is what you came for, this is the wrong shelf entirely — see CoinGlass or Coinalyze.

The data plant itself is running. Coinigy's historical-data catalogue showed end dates of 21 September 2026 on Bitfinex, Bitstamp, Coinbase, Kraken and Poloniex markets when this card was written, and 18 September 2026 on BitMEX — per-market dates rather than one computed "today", which is what a working collector looks like. The private API answers an unauthenticated request with a 401 rather than a 404. Whatever has happened to the roadmap, the tape is still being recorded.

Your keys live on their servers. The security policy says so without being asked: keys are stored encrypted, are never returned to the client, and "your browser does not ever make requests to the exchange API directly from your computer". Two-factor authentication is mandatory before trading can be switched on, and every transactional e-mail carries a lockdown link that kills every key, resets the password and ends every session. That is the right disclosure and the right set of controls — it is still a hosted-key product, which is a different risk from Tealstreet, where the keys stay in your browser.

Integrations

The API is a tier of this product rather than a separate one. Keys are issued in account settings, requests are signed with an HMAC-SHA256 over key, timestamp, method, endpoint and body, and the docs are public. The marketing page for it claims 5,346 currencies, 21,321 markets and 39 exchanges under the CryptoFeed name, and the enterprise half of that is the $99.99 tier. A REST API that reads your own accounts and places orders across every connected exchange is a genuinely useful thing to have on a $99.99 subscription; the claims about coverage sit on a page that has not been revised in years, so verify against the endpoint before you plan around them.

Google Sheets has a first-party integration, documented in the help centre, which is the lightest way to get a live price out of this product and into something else.

There are no webhooks — a search of the shipped web application finds no such string — no scripting language beyond whatever the embedded chart library provides, and no MCP server. Alerts arrive by e-mail, SMS and mobile push, and stop there.

Lightspeed Crypto is still in the app and appears to be gone from the world. The bundle served today contains a modal offering to sign you up for Lightspeed Crypto with the pitch that it would "eliminate your Coinigy subscription fees", the surrounding code names Prime Trust as the custodian, and the navigation carries an application status flow. Prime Trust filed for bankruptcy in August 2023, and lightspeedcrypto.com now redirects to the parent broker's equities and futures site with no crypto product on it. Treat that offer as a fossil.

Limitations

• No product release since 17 December 2024. That is the vendor's own changelog, tagged and dated, and the mobile app stops three months later. The company is plainly still operating — weekly blog posts through September 2026, a rebuilt marketing site in December 2025, a rebuilt web app in October 2025 — but nothing has been added to the thing you would be paying for in nearly two years.
• A collapsed exchange is still on the supported list. FTX International is not an oversight you can excuse as cosmetic: the venue list is the product in this category, and this one has not been read since 2022.
• Thirteen of thirty-eight venues take orders, and the thirteen skew old — Poloniex, HitBTC, Coinbase Pro, CEX.IO. None of the perp venues that matter now is among them.
• No derivatives analytics at all. No funding, no open interest, no liquidations, no basis. A terminal in 2026 without those is a spot terminal.
• Keys are held server-side. Disclosed, encrypted, 2FA-gated and revocable in one click, and still a custody decision that several competitors do not ask you to make.
• No paper trading and no backtester. Nothing in the shipped application refers to either.
• No webhooks, so alerts cannot drive anything outside the product.
• The price may or may not be the month-to-month price. No control on the page says.
• Historical data needs a signed, human-approved agreement and is billed per data-month, which makes a year of one minute series roughly $216 to $324 before anyone reads a line of it.

Alternatives

For the same job — several exchanges behind one ticket — Altrady is the closest live equivalent and is actively developed, Tealstreet is free over twenty-odd venues and keeps your keys on your own machine, and Insilico Terminal is free with institutional order types if your venues are on its list.

If what you actually wanted was the chart, the library inside this product is sold on its own as TradingView Advanced Charts, and the platform built on it by its own vendor is TradingView — with a venue list that is maintained.

The rest of the shelf is at crypto trading terminals.
