The BTC Up/Down dashboard is built around one practical job: make a fast round easier to read. Instead of showing only a market price, PolyDashboard puts the market quote next to round timing, BTC reference movement, previous rounds, gap behavior, and paper trading state.
The UP and DOWN market prices show what the public market is quoting. Bid and ask movement can change quickly, especially near the end of a short round. The dashboard keeps those values visible so users can review how price changes relate to the timer and the BTC reference.
BTC reference movement is not the same thing as the market price. It gives context for why the market may move, but the market can lag, overreact, or ignore a reference move. The dashboard places the values together so the user can compare them instead of assuming they are identical.
Previous-round charts help users avoid judging the current round in isolation. A setup that feels unusual during a live round may have appeared recently. Reviewing older rounds also makes it easier to find repeated mistakes in timing and sizing.
Paper trading is embedded because reading a round and reviewing a simulated decision belong together. Users can practice entries and exits with virtual balance, then compare the result against the chart. The simulator does not place orders and does not remove execution risk from real trading elsewhere.
