Overview
What is Global Markets on MrChart?
Global Markets gives you one page for the wider market picture: equities, rates, currencies, crypto and commodities. It shows a market status with the exchange hours, index performance, a Fear and Greed Index with its seven components, and a sector map, so you can judge the mood of the market before you look at individual stocks.
Five tabs organise the page: overview, sectors, movers, heatmaps and calendar. The heatmaps cover stocks, crypto, ETFs and forex, so a move in one corner of the market is easy to compare with the others. It is a good first stop when you want to see how the world markets are moving today.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
What are global markets?
Global markets are the connected markets for stocks, bonds, currencies, commodities and crypto around the world. MrChart's page puts the main readings of these markets together so you can see how they move relative to each other.
How do I read the Fear and Greed Index?
It is MrChart's 0 to 100 reading of market mood, where low values mean fear and high values mean greed. The page also breaks it into seven components, so you can see what is driving the number.
Is the market data live?
The page shows a last-updated time and has a refresh button, and the data may be delayed. It is information for education and analysis, not investment advice.
