News has been driving a lot of price action lately, so we’ve updated the News page to make market‑moving stories easier to spot.

A new Hot Stories block at the top of the page puts the market’s most active stories front and center as they unfold. Top comments for each story are displayed so you can quickly gauge community sentiment. Navigation arrows let you flip through these stories without breaking your flow.

Below Hot Stories, the left side has a long Latest Stories list if you still like to read the tape in chronological order. On the right, you’ll find more ways to view news and comments, and both sides are customizable to match how you trade.

Since the comment section isn’t for everyone, you can click the ‘Hot Stories’ block title and uncheck ‘Show Top Comments’ to focus purely on the news.

If you have feedback on the News page, we’d like to hear it!

The Market page has been redesigned to make navigating between instruments faster and easier.

Instruments now have icons, making everything easier to recognize at a glance. Whether you're tracking gold, forex, crypto, energy, or indices, you can find what you need quickly.

The instrument selector has also been updated. Just start typing a symbol or name, or browse the most popular instruments to get started. Over time, the selector learns from your activity to surface more personalized suggestions.

Give it a try. If an instrument is missing, let us know!

News comments have been redesigned to make discussions more useful and easier to follow. In a market where headlines can move prices in seconds, conversations around the news matter. With Volatility Now putting market‑moving stories front and center, good comments can turn those headlines into trade ideas even faster.

What’s new

1. Quality‑based ordering so top comments surface first
2. Threaded replies so discussions stay together
3. Simpler posting so writing a comment or reply is easier

Using the new view

By default, comments are ordered to highlight higher‑quality contributions. If you prefer a different sort order, click "Comments / Top" at the top left of the comments block and choose "Oldest" for chronological order (like before) or "Newest" to see the latest comments first.

More updates coming

We’ve been busy pushing forward site and product improvements behind the scenes, and we’re looking forward to sharing more of them with you.
