How to Use the Global Markets Dashboard

The Global Markets Dashboard shows every major market live on one screen: indices, crypto, forex, commodities, bond yields and market sentiment. It is free, with no sign-up. This short guide covers how to get the most out of it on desktop and on mobile, plus how to install it as an app and show it on a TV.

• Rotating panels. Each card cycles through more instruments on its own, so you see extra markets without extra clutter.
• Info icons. Tap the info icon on any instrument for a quick, plain-English explainer of what it is and what moves it.
• News in place. Turn any card into a live market-news feed. Your choice is remembered across refreshes, so you can keep headlines exactly where you want them, and you can cancel it any time to bring the market card back.
• Knowledge hub. Open the menu on the left edge for in-depth guides on AI, quantum, interest rates, metals and more.
• Fullscreen. Switch to fullscreen for a clean wall-display view, ideal for a second monitor or an office screen.
• Reorder cards. Drag a card by its title to arrange the layout the way you like. Your order is saved on your device.
• The quick-access strip. The row of chips above the cards is the fastest way around the site: AI Mood, Daily, Sectors, Weekly, Calendar and Clocks.
• AI Mood. A short, AI-written read on what the market is doing today and why.
• Daily and Weekly. Daily opens Markets Today, a written summary of the session that is republished three times every weekday. Weekly opens Weekly Market Trends, the bigger picture across the last five sessions. Use Daily to catch up on today and Weekly to see whether today fits the trend.
• Sectors. A heatmap of how the eleven US sectors and the main theme ETFs are performing, so you can see what is leading and what is lagging.
• Calendar. The month's key US economic releases. The strip also shows the next major event and when it lands.
• Clocks. Opens Is the Market Open? with live opening hours for every major exchange.
• Light or dark. Use the sun and moon toggle in the top bar. Your choice is remembered on your device.

• Overview first. The dashboard opens on an at-a-glance overview: the fear gauges on top, then the headline instrument for every market as a compact live card.
• Bottom navigation. Move between Global, News, Calendar and About using the app-style bar at the bottom.
• Swipe the sections. In Global, use the pill tabs to jump between indices, crypto, commodities, forex, bonds and sentiment.
• Info icons. Tap the info icon on any instrument for the same plain-English explainer as on desktop.
• The same chips. AI Mood, Daily, Sectors, Weekly, Calendar and Clocks are all on mobile too, and do exactly what they do on desktop.
• News and Calendar. The News tab shows a full feed with images and filters. The Calendar tab lists key economic releases with add-to-calendar reminders.
• Bigger screen. The dashboard is even better on a large screen. Open it on a computer, or cast the live stream to a TV.

The dashboard is an installable app, so you can launch it from your home screen or desktop like any other program:

• Desktop (Chrome or Edge). Use the install icon in the address bar to add it to your desktop.
• Phone. Use your browser's Add to Home Screen option to pin it with its own icon.
• Windows. Install the dedicated Windows app from the Microsoft Store, which opens full screen with no browser tabs.

Two easy ways to put the markets on a big screen:

• Fullscreen on a connected screen. Open the dashboard on a computer wired to a TV or monitor and switch to fullscreen for a live wall display.
• Cast the live stream. Open the free 24/7 live stream and cast it to your TV from the YouTube app. It works with Chromecast, Apple TV and Fire TV.

How do I use the Global Markets Dashboard?

Open gmdmarkets.com and every market loads live on one screen with no sign-up. Cards rotate through more instruments on their own, each instrument has an info icon that opens a plain-English explainer, and you can turn any card into a live news feed that stays across refreshes. On desktop a side menu opens in-depth guides and a fullscreen mode gives a wall-display view. On mobile you swipe between sections using the bottom navigation.

Do I need to sign up or pay?

No. The dashboard is 100% free with no sign-up, no account and no subscription. All data streams live in your browser.

How do I see what an instrument means?

Tap the small info icon next to any instrument, such as the S&P 500, VIX or the US 10-year yield. A short, plain-English explainer opens describing what it is, what moves it and why it matters.

How do I read the news on the dashboard?

On desktop, turn any market card into a live news feed. Your choice is remembered across refreshes, so the news stays where you put it, and you can cancel it any time to bring the card back. On mobile, open the News tab in the bottom navigation for the full feed with images and category filters.

What are the chips at the top of the dashboard?

They are shortcuts to the six things people look for most, and they are on both desktop and mobile. AI Mood gives a short AI-written read on the session. Daily opens Markets Today, a written summary republished three times every weekday. Sectors opens a heatmap of the eleven US sectors and the main theme ETFs. Weekly opens Weekly Market Trends for the picture across the last five sessions. Calendar lists the month's key US economic releases, and the strip also shows the next major event. Clocks opens live opening hours for every major exchange.

What is the difference between the Daily and Weekly chips?

Daily is today: Markets Today is a written summary of the current session, republished three times every weekday, so it answers what moved and why. Weekly is the trend: Weekly Market Trends covers the last five sessions, so it answers whether today was part of a run or a break from it. Use Daily to catch up and Weekly to check whether today actually changed anything.

Can I install the dashboard as an app?

Yes. It is an installable progressive web app. On desktop Chrome or Edge, use the install icon in the address bar. On a phone, use your browser's Add to Home Screen option. There is also a dedicated Windows app in the Microsoft Store that opens full screen with no browser tabs.

Can I show the dashboard on a TV?

Yes. Open the dashboard in fullscreen on any screen connected to a computer, or cast the free 24/7 live stream to a TV from the YouTube app, which works with Chromecast, Apple TV and Fire TV.

How do I switch between light and dark mode?

Use the sun and moon toggle in the top bar. The dashboard remembers your choice on your device and reapplies it with no flash on your next visit.
