Dex.Guru: Is This The Most Advanced DEX Trading and Charting Tool? (Sponsored)
This is a sponsored review of one of the most popular charting and trading platforms Dex.guru
The DexGuru platform can be described as a user friendly, multi-chain trading platform and AMM aggregator. One of the main unique value propositions of the app is it allows traders to switch between most popular chains (Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, and Avalanche).
Before we delve into DexGuru’s product, one thing we noted was an impressive cap table amongst the project’s recent $1m seed funding round, which included the likes of the LAO (a premier ETH ecosystem fund with notable members such as AAVE’s founder, Stani).
It will come as no surprise then that the product is equally impressive. DexGuru boasts a user-friendly trading experience, with a clean UI and responsive search functionalities.
As well as the overall look and feel of the platform being polished, there are a number of “quality of life” additions that the Chads found useful when navigating DefiGuru (shown below).
Native On Chain Analytics
One aspect that we found particularly helpful was DexGuru’s on-chain analytic features. Let’s take an example below:
Here we can see that Hegic has experienced a downtrend in price, but only a minority of this sell off is coming from medium and large holders.
As with all other aspects of the platform - this on-chain information is displayed in a way that is readily accessible and easily understandable.
You can then take this information and combine it with other sources of data (e.g. the volume indicator, market sentiment and news) to evaluate whether this is a temporary short-term trader capitulation or indicative of a broader market move.
Either way, you’re immediately making a more informed decision.
Additional Functionalities
One thing that makes DexGuru stand apart from competitors is the ability to easily scan what is trending, gaining and losing in the markets on any given day.
DexGuru is by no means the first platform to offer such features, but the display shown below provides this information in a far more readily accessible manner than anything we have seen on the market to date.
There is also a DYOR tab that gives a clear and concise breakdown of each token’s key metrics:
Under the Hood
Let’s take a look at how DexGuru works from a technical perspective.
DexGuru leverages the 0x protocol API to optimise order routing and execution. In practice, this means that trades are allocated to one of the following exchanges:
A key benefit of the 0x protocol integration is that your transactions are being approved directly to 0x Protocol, which itself is a highly audited and reputable codebase (see more: https://protocol.0x.org/en/latest/additional/audits.html).
Finally, it is important to note that DexGuru does not charge its own transaction fee, meaning your costs are never greater than the basic network charges.
Closing Remarks
Overall, DexGuru is an impressive product with an equally strong background. In stark contrast to many other up-and-coming DEX’s, their product suite makes the platform easy to use at every stage. There are no buggy or laggy UIs and every function interacts instantly with low latency. In addition, this strength of the front end is backed up by routing via the tried and tested 0xProtocol layer to ensure efficient and secure swaps. The Chads will certainly be tracking this one as it develops.
