# Cross Asset Monitor

> The Cross Asset Monitor — a customizable, category-grouped board of rates, FX, credit, commodities, crypto and equity benchmarks, tuned per account.

**The Cross Asset Monitor** (the first section at the top of the [Macro](https://auramarkets.io/macro) dashboard) is your customizable read on everything moving — rates, FX, credit, commodities, crypto, and the major equity benchmarks — in one compact board.

Think of it as your personal Bloomberg launch page, dark.

## Layout

The monitor is grouped into six category blocks:

**Equities · Rates · Currencies · Commodities · Credit · Cryptocurrencies**

Each block is a tight table, one row per instrument. A row shows:

* **Name + ticker**
* **Sparkline** over the recent window
* **Current price / level** — yields render as `%`, ratios as `×`, spreads in `bps`
* **Change cell**, heat-shaded green→red by magnitude, for the active timeframe

A few extras show up where they're useful:

* Yields, VIX, and MOVE rows add a **point / bps change** under the price (not just a percentage)
* A green **● dot** marks a row that's updating **intraday** (\~15-min delayed); everything else is end-of-day
* The little **chart icon** on a row opens the full pop-out — for single names that's the [stock pop-out](/indices/stock-chart) with its company panel and Ask Aura box
* Macro instruments (futures, FX, yields, ratios) open the same full-featured chart: **Candle / Heikin-Ashi / Line / Area** bar types with volume, a **Studies ▾** menu (moving averages, Bollinger, RSI, MACD), **Log / %** scale, a **⊿ measure tool**, and **Compare** — overlay any other dashboard instrument as a %-rebased line so cross-asset moves line up at 0%

## Timeframe pills

The row of pills above the board — `1D · 1W · 1M · 3M · 6M · YTD · 1Y` — re-scores every change cell to that lookback. Flip to `1M` to see who's actually trending versus who just had a noisy day.

## Customizing a category

Every category header has a **gear (⚙)**. Click it to open **Customize {category}**:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Active items (top)">
    What's currently on the board for that category, in order. Drag the **☰** handle to reorder, or hit **✕** to remove a row — it drops into the pool below.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Available (below)">
    The rest of the catalog for that category — click **＋** to add anything back to your board.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Reset to defaults">
    Restores the shipped set for that category immediately.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Done">
    Applies and closes. Your selection is stored **per-account** and follows you across devices.
  </Step>
</Steps>

It's the same editor used by every gear and the page [Layout button](/getting-started/customize) across auramarkets.

## What's in the catalog

Non-exhaustive, but to give you the shape of it:

* **Equities** — US benchmarks (S\&P, Nasdaq, Dow, Russell), sector ETFs, and major international indices
* **Rates** — 2Y / 5Y / 10Y / 30Y US Treasuries, the 2s10s and 3m10y curve spreads, SOFR, and international 10Y yields
* **Currencies** — DXY plus the major and EM crosses (EURUSD, USDJPY, GBPUSD, AUDUSD…)
* **Commodities** — WTI, Brent, the Brent/WTI ratio, gold, silver, copper, natural gas, and softs
* **Credit** — LQD, HYG, JNK, TIP, and related credit proxies
* **Cryptocurrencies** — BTC, ETH, SOL

<Note>
  Your selections are served from our own warmed data store, so adding a commodity, FX cross, or crypto name to a category shows up reliably — no waiting on a live fetch. Prices refresh on the daily cron, with the intraday **●** rows updated through the session.
</Note>

## How most people use it

* **A "regime watch" board** — DXY, 10Y, HYG, gold, BTC. When all five move together, regime is shifting.
* **A "single-asset deep dive" board** — trim Commodities down to oil and its complex, sit it next to USD and the rate-sensitive names.
* **A "morning checks" board** — overnight equity benchmarks, DXY, 10Y, BTC, gold for a 30-second pre-open scan.
