Product navigation

Desktop: identify the main areas

• Top bar: Astral logo (return to Terminal), search for people/assets/strategies/indicators, notification bell, cash balance, portfolio value, and your avatar.
• Left icon rail: tokens/watchlists, Feed, Explore, Strategies, Positions & Orders, Report a Bug, and Connect AI client. Hover over an icon to read its label; click anywhere in its square button to open it. A panel's collapse control hides the panel; it does not delete its contents.
• Token panel: Watchlist, Tokens, and Perps, with list selectors and the chain filter below them. Tokens opens on Crypto by default; select Trending or another list to change it. Selecting an asset opens its chart/context.
• Chart area: chart tabs, Add chart, symbol replacement, Interval, Indicators, price/market-cap display, drawings, chart Settings, fullscreen and buy/sell controls.
• Conversation/trade area: Chat and Trade. Chat has Start new chat, View chat history, image attachments, model/intelligence selection, and the message composer.
• Code/results area: the strategy Code view and available backtesting/results controls. Expand/maximize controls change the panel view; they do not change strategy logic.

Drag a visible divider to resize panels. Layout and collapsed panels can affect where a control appears. Use its named control rather than a fixed pixel position.

Recognize action buttons

Neutral action buttons share the quiet fill and thin border used by input fields, with a subtle inset edge and clear labels in light and dark themes. Blue buttons mark primary actions. Joined neutral buttons share one outer edge; hovering or pressing an enabled segment highlights that segment, including grouped dropdown triggers. Disabled segments keep the shared background and show muted text and icons. Read the button's label to identify its action.

Dropdowns and segmented view choices across the web app use the profile controls' thin outline, rounded corners, sans-serif labels and soft selected highlight. Dropdown option labels use the same 13px medium-weight sans-serif text, including trading order types, chart intervals, sorting and filters. Labels keep their supplied casing, including case-sensitive interval units; secondary descriptions, counts, account details and keyboard shortcuts keep their separate styling. Compact dialog choices, including Transfer cash → Tokens → Perps / Perps → Tokens, keep the profile controls' readable height and label size. Chart range controls keep their chart-specific sizing, and mobile menu rows retain their touch targets. Account and action popovers keep their own typography; the avatar menu's Settings, Appearance, Sign out, Light and Dark rows retain compact uppercase monospace text. Buy / Sell and Long / Short keep their dedicated trading-toggle styling and sliding coloured highlight. A selection changes the displayed option or view; it does not submit a trade or replace a final confirmation.

Open account Settings

In desktop Terminal's top-right header, hover over the avatar → Settings, or click the avatar → Settings. Hover previews the account menu; clicking keeps it open after you move the pointer away. Click the avatar again, press Escape, or click outside to dismiss it. Opening another header menu can replace it. Keyboard focus previews the menu, and Enter or Space keeps it open; a second activation closes it. Escape returns focus to the avatar.

The menu starts with your account summary (avatar, name, email and tier), followed by Settings, Appearance, and Sign out. Your tier appears as a muted text label beside your name, with your email on its own line. Select the full account summary to visit your public profile; it highlights on hover, press and keyboard focus. There is no separate Profile item. Clicking the top-bar avatar opens the menu rather than navigating directly. Other desktop account-menu triggers remain click-to-toggle. These interactions are the same in Paper and Real money and do not change trading mode or move funds. Mobile Open menu navigation below is unchanged; an installed native release may differ until updated.

Settings groups Profile, Notifications, Plan, and Bug reports under Account; Wallets and AI connections under Workspace. Brokerages and the separate Paper accounts tab are hidden in the current customer navigation. Use Wallets → Trading mode for Paper.

Mobile navigation

The mobile web shell uses Chat, Search, Feed, Notifications, and Profile in the bottom navigation. It appears on phones and in the compact browser shell (up to 960px). Charts, trades and settings can open in fullscreen views or drawers. The keyboard can hide the bottom navigation until dismissed; some secondary layouts still use device detection as well as width. Installed native releases can differ.

The navigation floats over scrolling content with a translucent surface. The active destination uses a soft rounded highlight that moves between tabs. Lists continue underneath the bar; scroll to the end to bring the last items above the controls. Keyboard focus still has a visible outline.

The Profile Performance header's Strategies / Manual toggle and calendar-marked period dropdown share the compact height, rounded borders and sans-serif type of Private / Published and the workspace controls. This choice styling is shared with dropdowns and segmented controls elsewhere in the web app. Mobile button popovers, including period menus inside larger chart sheets and filter menus, use sans-serif labels with their supplied casing and the same brief opening and closing animation as desktop menus. Mobile sheets, including chart pickers and detail views, use a brief fade and small movement consistent with desktop dialogs. Selecting a picker option applies it while the overlay closes. With a menu inside a detail sheet, Escape dismisses the menu first; press it again to close the sheet. Your device's reduced-motion preference skips these animations. Installed native versions need their own release verification.

• Chat returns to the last confirmed routable conversation when one is available. An account-scoped hint in this browser tab survives the Terminal stream disconnecting while you visit another tab; normal server access checks and recovery still apply. Changing tabs does not clear the conversation or create a new chat.
• Search opens an inline market browser with Watchlist, Tokens, and Perps. Use Search tokens or contract addresses, check the exact network/address, then select a result to open its chart in a sheet over Search. Closing it preserves the page and filters. While browsing, use the left chain selector where available, then swipe the category chips horizontally. The chips extend to the right edge; there is no duplicate category menu. Perps has its own scrollable asset-class categories. The market Search header has no right-side action. Community search opens accounts, strategies and indicators; strategy and indicator results open their detail sheet above Search, including saved strategies without a public link. Existing community search links remain supported. Ticker logos in this Search list have no star overlay; save or remove an asset using its chart’s watchlist action.
• Feed, shown with the Explore globe icon, has Posts, Strategies, Leaderboard, and Following below its search field. Select the active Posts, Strategies, or Leaderboard tab again to open its sort options; Following has no sort menu. Each section keeps its query while you switch sections. Use Create → New post for the post sheet, New strategy for the existing publication flow, or Browse indicators for the indicator library.
• Notifications shows collapsible Unread and All groups; All contains read events. Search filters the loaded events. Notification actions offers Mark all read and Clear all; failed read updates leave events unread. The unread dot is not proof of a fill. Open a row for details and check actual order status.
• Profile opens /dashboard: available Cash and wallet actions, Performance with its Strategies / Manual control and shared period dropdown, then Strategies / Positions / Orders workspace tabs. Manual cards combine existing wallets in the current mode and show recorded closed-position curves. Tap a performance card for its larger chart. Lists retain their search and filters; they stay within their tab. Strategy rows open their detail sheet above Profile, where deployment and other actions remain available. Profile rows have no trailing arrow/menu icons; Signals strategies retain a management view. Position rows open a position view with P/L, an embedded price chart and a Buy/Sell ticket; Open full chart opens the asset chart. Order rows open record details and any eligible cancellation, without inline expansion or a trade ticket. The header gear opens Edit public profile. Publications remain on community profiles and the desktop Published tab. Private information requires confirmed account ownership.

Mobile pages use flat headers with 12px side insets and 15px medium-weight titles, compact search fields with smaller text and full touch targets, and closely spaced header actions. Rounded-square actions and circular profile buttons have matching visible sizes and touch targets. The compact floating bottom bar keeps full touch targets and its icon sizes; each icon has an accessible name. These tabs are normal browser links; browser Back returns through visited routes. Use a chart or sheet's explicit back/close control to leave a detail view. Opening a tab or an asset chart does not trade, deploy, publish or change account mode.

Tap Open menu at the top left. The mobile slide-over uses compact text and icons, with full-size navigation tap targets and a blue Deposit button. It starts with your profile identity (opens your private Dashboard), available Cash or Paper cash, and Deposit. Its first group is Strategies, Orders, Positions, Watchlist, in that order. The second is Subscription, Wallet, AI Connections, Settings. Sign out is in the menu's top toolbar. Strategies opens deployed/saved lists; Orders, Positions and saved Watchlist open above the current route. Closing them returns to that route. Wallet opens the existing wallet settings, Subscription opens subscription settings, and AI Connections opens the AI-client connection flow. Deposit retains the existing mode, eligibility and review controls. Use the bottom tabs for Feed and Notifications. Alerts remain available from supported chart/watchlist controls and Chat's reviewed alert flow. Choose Settings, then scroll the settings tab strip if the desired tab is offscreen. Native wallet-provider screens may differ from the browser.

The hamburger drawers share the Positions surface, header spacing and grabber color in dark and light mode. Strategies has collapsible Saved Strategies then Deployed Strategies, with one Search strategies field. Sheet actions sit in the top-right toolbar beside the title; search fields stay below. The Strategies sort control applies to both sections. Watchlist contains saved assets only: use Search watchlist or the top-right Add watchlist asset (+) action. There is no Edit button; use an asset chart’s watchlist action to remove it. It has no Tokens/Perps tabs, ticker-star overlays or Token info section. Selecting a saved asset opens its exact chart above the current route. Closing the chart returns to the Watchlist. Desktop token panels retain their existing tabs, stars and Token info.

Trade-first preview

A trade-first layout is being tested. It is shown only to accounts selected for it; everyone else keeps the layout described in the rest of these guides. You have it if the desktop token panel has a Wallets tab, or the first tab of the phone bottom navigation is Markets. It shows where money is being made on Solana, adds shortcuts to the Buy ticket, and changes where things start. Orders, funding, fees and strategies work as described in their own guides.

Money made

These figures count realised profit: what a wallet received for the tokens it sold, minus what it paid for them, before network and venue fees. They count only buys made at least 3 hours after a token launched. First-hour results mostly belong to automated buyers and launch insiders, so they are left out, as are wallets that trade like machines. The figures cover Solana, refresh every hour, and report what happened. They are not advice, a list of picks or a forecast. A token where money was taken out may already have fallen, and a wallet is an address, not a person.

• Scoreboard strip: a line under the desktop top bar, and at the top of the phone Markets page, reads (number) wallets took out $100+, took out $1,000+ and, when any did, took out $10,000+ over the last 24 hours. Each wallet's losing sales in the same 24 hours are subtracted first. Latest: names the newest win held for an hour or more, as the amount put in, the amount taken out, the token and how long it was held; several rotate. Select Latest to open that token's chart. On desktop, Who's winning opens the Wallets tab. The strip is hidden while the figures are unavailable.
• Moving now: a list on Tokens. The desktop Terminal panel opens on Crypto by default; the mobile market browser opens on Moving now when available. It holds tokens from the Trending, Top, Graduated and holder lists that launched at least 3 hours ago, rose 3% or more over the last hour, and traded at least $10,000 in that hour, biggest rise first. Each row shows the change over the last hour marked 1h in place of the 24-hour change, and one line under the name: (number) took out $100+ · 3h for wallets that took profit in the last 3 hours, · 24h when none did in the last 3 hours, or the amount traded · 1h when nobody took out $100. Hover the line for the full sentence. A token counts as launched 3 hours ago only if it also traded that long ago. It is measured again about every five minutes. The other lists are unchanged. Where the list is not available it is not shown; a desktop panel showing it returns to Crypto, while the mobile market browser defaults to Trending.
• Wallets tab: up to 100 Solana wallets with the most profit over 7 days. Each closed at least 5 positions, held most of them past the hour, and won between 35% and 95% of them. A row shows a shortened address, positions closed, share won, typical stake, 7-day profit, its newest buy and Watch. Winning this week lists them all, Watching the ones you watch, and Bought last hour those that bought in the newest hour of data. Select a row for its best win, its buys in the last day (select one to open the token's chart), Ask Astral, Copy address and Solscan. On a phone, Wallets is a tab of Markets and has no Ask Astral. The tab is absent while the figures are unavailable.
• Watch: select Watch on a wallet to be told when it buys. A notice appears in Astral reading (wallet) bought (amount) of (token) with View (token). Buys are known about an hour after they happen, so the notice gives the age. The watch list is kept in this browser only: it does not follow your account to another browser or device, and it holds up to 50 wallets. If a watched wallet leaves the list, Watching shows Not on this week's list, so its buys are not reported with Stop watching.
• Money made on this coin: on a desktop chart of a Solana token where at least one wallet took out $100 in the last 24 hours, a card at the bottom left of the chart reads how many wallets took out $100+ and how many of them $1,000+, the Best held win, how many sellers were in profit and how many wallets are still holding. Select its heading to collapse it to one line. Ask who, and what they're buying now sends that question to the assistant. The card is not shown while a backtest's trades are on the chart.

Buying and starting points

• Phone: the app opens on Markets, the market browser otherwise labelled Search, with the Watchlist, Tokens, Wallets and Perps tabs and the search field. The bottom navigation is Markets, Chat, Feed, Notifications, Profile. A link to a specific conversation, chart or strategy still opens what it names. On a token's page the trade button is labelled Buy; it opens the same ticket, where SELL remains available.
• First chart: a new Terminal session opens on the top token of Moving now that your wallet can buy, instead of Bitcoin. When that list is empty or unavailable it opens on the highest-ranked Trending token your wallet can buy whose crash risk is Low, or the highest-ranked one it can buy. Saved sessions reopen their own charts. The first chart is a starting point, not a recommendation; check the token before trading.
• Buy on lists and stories: on desktop, token rows in the token panel show Buy, which charts that token and opens Trade on the Buy side. A market story in Feed shows Buy for its token and a since badge: the change from the story's last recorded price to the latest price. A token the wallet cannot trade shows no Buy. These buttons only open the ticket; nothing is submitted until you choose the ticket's final button.
• Buy amounts: a Buy ticket's quick amounts start as $5, $10, $25, $50 and $100 until you edit them. Sell keeps 10%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%.
• Cash line: in Real money mode, before your first trade in this browser, the token list shows You have (amount) to trade. Pick a coin., or Add money to start trading. with Add money when less than $1 is available. Add money opens the usual deposit dialog; see Deposit money.
• Chat suggestions: with a token on the desktop chart, a new chat offers three requests about that token: buy $10 of it with a 20% trailing stop, which wallets made the most on it today and what they are buying now (Solana tokens), and an alert if it rises another 25%. The assistant opens a prefilled ticket or alert for you to review. It does not submit an order or save an alert. Without a token on the chart, and on the phone chat home, the starters ask who is making money, for a small buy to review, and for a strategy.
• Ask the assistant: you can ask who is making money on Solana, what is moving, which wallets are winning and what they bought, or who took profit on one token. It answers from the same hourly figures and states their time.
• Explore and leaderboard: in Real money mode, the Explore rail icon and the phone Feed's Strategies and Leaderboard sections stay hidden until a live strategy has been published. Explore still opens directly.

Switch between Classic and Onchain

In a release with product switching enabled, Switch product appears in the account menu when your account can enter both products. You can also visit Choose your Astral product to check access. Choose Open Classic or Open Onchain when available. An absent menu entry can mean your account has access to one product, access could not be checked, or switching is not enabled in that release.

Both products use the same Astral identity within an environment. You may need to sign in again on the other website. Dev and production remain separate. A product switch saves your preference and opens the selected website; it does not move funds, convert saved work, transfer a running strategy, or switch Paper / Real money mode. Manage existing work in the product where it was created.

Not available for your account means access has not been granted or the product is disabled. New execution is paused means new deployment/trade requests and agent turns are restricted; it does not confirm that existing strategies stopped. If switching fails, use Retry or return to the original product. For recovery that is unavailable there, contact Help.

An explicit Product agent access is paused chat error means that new turn was refused, not queued for later processing. Keep a copy of your message and retry only after access is restored; changing product or Paper / Real money mode does not bypass the pause. Existing execution, monitoring and recovery remain with the original product. This applies to desktop and mobile web; installed native releases require their own qualification.

The chooser adapts to desktop and mobile web widths. Native-app switching and cross-website sign-in continuity require release-specific qualification; do not assume an installed native client has this control. The main website's default product can change independently of your running execution.

Administrators can grant Classic only, Onchain only, or both. Permissions follow the named product when the main and alternate domains are reassigned. Opening a restricted workspace directly returns you to the chooser. Manage existing Classic execution / Manage existing Onchain execution opens the original product's recovery dashboard, including when normal entry is unavailable. Recovery does not grant new execution permission; contact Help if a required recovery control is unavailable.

A release can also close the whole Onchain website to accounts without Onchain access. On a closed site, only sign-in is available before you have access: Home, Explore, Docs, Pricing, News, Help, Feed and public profiles all go to sign-in, and nothing is listed for search engines. After you sign in without access, you see Onchain is not available for your account. That page offers Go to Astral Classic when your account can use Classic, Manage existing Onchain execution for strategies and orders you already have there, and Sign out for the wrong account. Help is on the Classic website. An administrator grants access; signing in again, changing product or switching Paper / Real money mode does not. This describes the source for a closed release and has not been checked on a live site. Whether a given site is closed depends on its release.

After a domain change, an already-open page may say This domain now serves another product. That website request was refused. Use Reopen your original product before retrying; check the original product's order/strategy status first because other requests and running execution are independent. You may need to sign in again. Keep product-specific bookmarks on the stable product website: an old bookmark on a reassigned domain follows that domain's current product. Domain-router release and installed native behavior require separate qualification.

Terminal

Use Terminal for token lookup, charts, research conversations, generated strategy code and backtest analysis. The search surface can also find people, strategies and indicators. For a token, verify the chain and address before opening a chart.

Token context

Chart statistics, token activity and holder panels show the data available for the active token. A token conversation is distinct from an AI research conversation; check the panel you are using.

Saved work and monitoring

Use the available watchlist, strategies, positions, orders and notification panels to follow the selected source and mode. Dashboard provides configurable monitoring widgets; Explore is the public strategy and indicator library.

Settings and wallets

Manage account and billing in Settings. Real cash controls provide Add money and Withdraw; Paper uses Deposit and Withdraw. Read Wallets and funding before using them. Brokerage onboarding is not advertised in the current navigation.

Controls can differ by screen size and account access. When a control is unavailable in a compact layout, use the supported workspace view rather than assuming the operation was completed.
