After many months of hard work, failures, firings, and question marks, I’m excited to finally announce Cryptosheets! 👌
Cryptosheets is the first Excel add-in for cryptocurrencies that:
- Pulls real-time quotes, OHLCV, and trades from over 95+ different exchanges, 3,000+ assets and 11,000+ symbols
- Pulls the entire 1,700+ cryptocurrency library of CoinMarketCap
- Up to 5 years worth of Open/High/Low/Close/Volume (OHLCV) data from Cryptocompare
We have an entire generation of brilliant financial analysts, traders, investors, portfolio managers (the list goes on and on) who live and die within Excel.
These talented individuals are wizards in Excel from many years of use, but will never learn how to code.
Cryptosheets use cases:
- Backtesting trading strategies
- Portfolio valuation and optimization
- Risk management
- Research and analysis
- Third-party integrations
- Technical analysis
- Much, much more
Cryptocurrencies are a new asset class. A mountain of knowledge from trading and investing is immediately portable over to digital assets. Cryptosheets aims to ease this transition of knowledge.
We want to save thousands of hours of Copy->Paste->Spot Check->Pray. A few simple clicks through our interface and you will get whatever data your heart desires. ❤️
Initially we will connect CoinMarketCap, Cryptocompare, and CoinAPI. A large portion of our development resources will be spent integrating the data providers that our users request. 💨
Cryptosheets is live on Microsoft Appsource and during phase 1 we will be working relentlessly on speed, efficiency, reliability, and enhancements…all of which your feedback is absolutely critical.
Please do not hesitate to report any bugs you found, or give us any feature requests that you want to see implemented. Feature requests are voted on by users and built based on demand.
