FINANCE & MARKET DISPLAYS
Watch the markets move on a trading-floor split-flap board that flips every tick into focus. flaps.tv streams crypto prices, equity watchlists, and portfolio numbers onto any screen with sub-second updates, forked from a template and pointed at your live data sources.

A live crypto ticker that pulls Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana prices in USD from CoinGecko's public API and flips each row when the market moves. The three data widgets ship preconfigured with the URL and JSON paths, so prices work the moment you fork. Trading desks, crypto meetups, and home offices run it as a Solari-style market wall.
A market watchlist board with a four-symbol table — AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, TSLA — showing last price and daily move color-coded green for gains and orange for losses, plus a pre-market session line and a notes row flagging Fed minutes at 2pm. Trading desks, offices, and investor lounges run it as an at-a-glance market wall that starts static and can go live.
Designing a market board that keeps pace with the tape
Structure the board like a watchlist, not a terminal. One row per symbol with columns for ticker, last price, and percent change is the layout that reads at a glance; six to ten rows keeps digits large enough to catch from across a room. Fork a finance template, size the grid to your list, and reserve a header row for an index or portfolio total. The flip animation renders at 60 FPS in browser canvas, so a fast-moving list stays fluid on a plain smart TV.
Connect the feed and set the cadence. Point the board's data widgets at any JSON price source — an exchange API, a market-data service, or your own aggregation endpoint — map fields to the price and change columns, and connected boards flip to new quotes in under a second. Set the poll interval to match how live you need to be: seconds for a trading desk, a minute for a lobby ticker. Live data sources are a Business-plan feature, which also removes the display limit.
Rotate asset classes instead of shrinking them. A crypto scene, an equities scene, and an FX or commodities scene — each with its own watchlist and duration — cycle on one screen while every list stays readable, and a market-close countdown widget can ride in the header of each. A desk running a wall of TVs manages all of them from one dashboard: edit a watchlist once and every connected screen flips to the new lineup in real time.

Can I track real-time prices for my own watchlist?
Yes. Connect a market data API or JSON feed and each symbol flips to its latest price in under a second.
Is the board fast enough for an active trading desk?
Updates land sub-second, so the board keeps pace with live quotes while the split-flap motion makes changes easy to catch at a glance.
Can I run several market boards across a wall of screens?
Fork a board per screen, each with its own watchlist, colors, and data URL, all browser-based with no terminal hardware.
What plan do I need for a live market board?
Live data sources are a Business-plan feature at $79/mo, which also covers unlimited displays — a fit for a desk running several screens. Building and previewing boards is free, and manually edited boards can go live from $8/mo on Starter.
Can a single screen rotate between crypto, equities, and FX?
Yes. Give each asset class its own scene with its own watchlist and duration, and the board cycles through them automatically. That keeps each list large enough to read across the room instead of cramming every symbol into one layout.
