7 trading tools listed for the Philippines
In ChainChoice’s published ranking order, from this category’s 7 providers: those whose terms exclude the Philippines are removed; naming the Philippines or a region that covers it counts the same, and those whose terms do not state it come last. Each chip names the basis: a dated check, a region listing, or the provider's own claim.
#1 for the PhilippinesTradingView#1 globallyProvider states broad availability The paid charting seat whose derivation is the most auditable in the pool — built-in indicator Pine source is readable, per-metric formulas are published, and the five-tier table prints its exclusions as rows — but whose crypto fundamentals are silently outsourced and whose affordable rungs are legally closed to a professional buyer.
What the affordable tier refuses — 9/10Venue set and disclosed gaps — 8/10#2 for the PhilippinesCryptoQuant#2 globallyProvider states broad availability Exchange-flow and cycle-metric research seat that publishes LaTeX construction for its derived line, per-venue derivatives history start dates, and an unusually honest weekly restatement schedule for its flagship flow series — but whose exchange-flow cohort rests on an unpublished clustering heuristic, with no as-of query to recover what any past number used to be.
Venue set and disclosed gaps — 8/10Derivation you can reproduce — 7/10#3 for the PhilippinesCoinGlass#3 globallyProvider states broad availability Derivatives data terminal — liquidations, open interest, funding, options and order-book heatmaps — sold as a $28/mo Prime seat and a five-tier API ($29 to $699/mo, Enterprise on inquiry) whose tier table prints its exclusions as explicit rows, and whose liquidation page carries the rarest artefact in this pool: a named upstream throttle disclosure.
What the affordable tier refuses — 9/10Venue set and disclosed gaps — 8/10#4 for the PhilippinesLaevitas#4 globallyProvider states broad availability Singapore-domiciled crypto options and dated-futures research seat (Laevitas Pte. Ltd.) selling a proprietary SVI vol surface, options flow, funding, OI and liquidation series at $50/mo per seat, with a public OpenAPI spec and an unauthenticated machine-readable historical-data-correction feed.
Venue set and disclosed gaps — 8/10When yesterdays number changes — 8/10#5 for the PhilippinesVelo#5 globallyProvider states broad availability A derivatives-and-market research terminal (rebranded from velodata.app) whose per-metric derivations are published in unusual detail and whose venue catalogue loads unauthenticated — but whose seat prices (News $149/mo, Premium $199/mo on 28 September 2026) render only once velo.xyz/pricing runs in a browser, and which publishes no changelog, no methodology version and no as-of query.
Derivation you can reproduce — 8/10Venue set and disclosed gaps — 8/10#6 for the PhilippinesHyblock Capital#6 globallyProvider states broad availability Crypto derivatives analytics terminal built on Binance/Bybit positioning and liquidation-level modelling (its changelog records BitMEX and Huobi support removed on 27 August 2026), whose indicator definitions are published in a public GitBook academy and whose tier prices render on its pricing page in a browser (Advanced $99/mo, Professional $499/mo on 28 September 2026), but whose terms, privacy policy and blog render on no loadable page.
Derivation you can reproduce — 6/10Venue set and disclosed gaps — 6/10#7 for the PhilippinesMaterial Indicators#7 globallyProvider states broad availability A two-tier retail subscription ($149.99 / $199.99 a month) to a Binance order-book heat map (FireCharts) plus three invite-only TradingView indicators and a ten-layer market-metrics dashboard; no API, no docs site, no changelog, and its only written data limitation, a display-scaling note on binned order-book history, sits in a 2022 blog post.
