Relative Crypto Dominance Polar Chart
Mar 26, 2025
The Relative Crypto Dominance Polar Chart is a powerful trading tool designed to help traders visually compare the dominance of up to ten different cryptocurrencies through a polar area chart. This innovative chart evaluates relative dominance using a blend of traded dollar volume and volatility, providing traders with an intuitive snapshot of market dynamics.
How to Use the Relative Crypto Dominance Polar Chart?
Using the Relative Crypto Dominance Polar Chart is straightforward. Simply load the indicator onto your chart, and the graph displaying relative dominance will be generated automatically. The default setting includes the ten largest cryptocurrencies by market cap, but traders have the flexibility to select any tickers via the settings panel.
Each area in the chart represents dominance by mapping volatility (radius) against dollar volume (arc length); thus, a larger area indicates greater dominance for that specific ticker.
How to Choose the Period?
The tool accommodates up to five different periods:
- Hourly
- Daily
- Weekly
- Monthly
- Yearly
By default, the tool is set to auto mode, intelligently selecting the period based on the chart's timeframe:
- For timeframes up to 2m: Hourly
- For timeframes up to 15m: Daily
- For timeframes up to 1H: Weekly
- For timeframes up to 4H: Monthly
- For larger timeframes: Yearly
Sorting & Sizing Options
Traders can opt to sort the graph areas by volatility (radius) in ascending or descending order. By default, the tickers appear as ordered in the settings panel. Additionally, the tool provides customization options to adjust the chart's width on a percentage basis. If the graph appears too wide, simply decrease the size parameter in the settings panel.

The Relative Crypto Dominance Polar Chart offers extensive customization through its settings panel. Traders can enable or disable most components and introduce a visually appealing petal-like effect by enabling curved lines for the display areas.
