# Cryptocurrency Summary

A subset of the [Market Summary](/charts-and-tools/research-tools/market-summary.md) page, the Cryptocurrency Summary gives a quick impression of the major cryptocurrencies' performance at a glance.

## Accessing the Cryptocurrency Summary <a href="#accessing_the_cryptocurrency_summary" id="accessing_the_cryptocurrency_summary"></a>

You can access the Cryptocurrency Summary from either the **Member Tools** area of [Your Dashboard](https://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/Favorites.CServlet), or the **Summary Pages** section of the [Charts & Tools](http://stockcharts.com/freecharts/) page.

## Using the Cryptocurrency Summary <a href="#using_the_cryptocurrency_summary" id="using_the_cryptocurrency_summary"></a>

The Cryptocurrency Summary page shows the performance data for each cryptocurrency over the selected period. The following periods are supported:

* Intraday
* One week
* One month
* Three months
* Six months
* Year to Date
* One year

The table shows the cryptocurrency symbol with the latest price, the change since the previous close (in both numeric and histogram format), the volume, and the quote time (using the UTC time zone). The data is updated continually.

Hover over a ticker symbol to display a mini chart for that symbol. This is a great way to quickly preview multiple cryptocurrencies on the list without ever leaving the Cryptocurrency Summary page.

Click the appropriate icon in the left column of each row in order to display the symbol in a full-scale [SharpChart](/charts-and-tools/sharpcharts.md), [StockChartsACP](/charts-and-tools/stockchartsacp.md), [Gallery View](/charts-and-tools/other-charting-tools/galleryview.md), [Point & Figure](/charts-and-tools/other-charting-tools/p-and-f-charts.md), or [Seasonality](/charts-and-tools/other-charting-tools/seasonality-charts.md) chart.

**Additional List Functionality**

The Cryptocurrency Summary tables have the same functionality as most of the lists on our site:

* Click the Columns button at the top to show or hide columns in the list.
* To sort by a different column, click the double-arrow icon next to the column header.
* To sort by multiple columns (e.g., sort by column A and then, within each value for A, sort by column B), click the first column, then hold down the shift key while selecting the second column.
* You can also search the items in the list by typing in the Search Table box at the top right.

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.stockcharts.com/charts-and-tools/research-tools/cryptocurrency-summary.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
