Thanks to everyone who tested over the last week.

This update focused on HIP-4, faster trading data surfaces, stronger agent controls, and better market-health analysis for HIP-3 markets.

Trading Data and Market Health

Terminal UI chart data, orderbook, and trades are now much faster.

We also added HIP-3 Pricing Analysis to measure the health of HIP-3 markets through depth, spread, and liquidity. That analysis is now available in Stats and in the terminal UI.

HIP-4

HIP-4 is live.

OpenTool was upgraded to 0.20.1 to support HIP-4, with the implementation tracked in openpond/opentool#199.

Product and Dev Updates

We shipped new Start/Stop logic for Agents, fixed the Total balance bug, and transitioned the trading page to WebSockets.

We also fixed the DCA trading strategy, updated orderbook grouping, improved mobile and small-screen terminal layouts, and fixed leverage selection in the Pair Trade UI.

Template Updates

Templates that rely on OpenTool should update to the HIP-4-compatible OpenTool 0.20.1 release.
