Crypto Dashboard
Program Overview
This dashboard uses the Kraken API to track weekly numbers for the cryptocurrency offered through the Kraken centralized exchange. The program finds the 200, 100, and 50 week average if enough data is present. If an asset has not been available for that long, then it finds the closest it can. The averages are meant to help understand the current price in reference to the historical trends. It is important to note that the averages are dependent on the data provided by Kraken and an asset may have been listed earlier on a different exchange, meaning there is a longer price history that could impact the true average.
The program also allows users to pull the current market listings from CoinMarketCap and view The Fear and Greed Index. An explanation of the data used to determine the index is available on their website.
