Map

• Markers: one per event, colored by its average insider risk and sized by flagged whale volume. High (70+) is the most suspicious bucket, Medium (55-69) a notable signal, Elevated (40-54) worth keeping an eye on.
• Country heat: countries are shaded by the flagged volume on every market about them. Only the genuinely hot ones glow, so a single small trade does not paint a whole continent.
• Country links: dashed arcs join the countries of a market that names more than one, such as a US and Iran ceasefire.
• Live trades: a ring pulses on an event when a new whale trade lands on it, and its card flashes in the list. The status line counts how many have landed since you opened the page.

The status line in the top corner shows when the data was last refreshed, how many events match your filters and how much flagged volume they hold. Open Key for a legend of whatever layers are on. The map zooms down to regions and cities, which is as fine as markets are placed.

The panel beside the map (a sheet you drag up on a phone) lists every event on the map. Filtering it filters the map too.

• Search: matches event titles, places and country names.
• Time: 1H, 6H, 24H, 7D, 30D. Only events with flagged activity in that window.
• Category: All, Crypto, Politics, Markets & World, Sports, Esports.
• Risk: All, High, Medium, Elevated, each with its count.
• Sort: most suspicious, most volume or most recent.

Click a marker or a card to open the event. The map flies to it, dims every country the market is not about and fades the other events. The panel shows the risk score, flagged volume and trades, time until resolution, the countries involved, the suspicious outcomes and the top whales, with a link into the full event page and whale profiles.

Click a shaded country (or a country chip on an event) to see every market about it, the whales across them and which other countries share those markets. Back or Esc steps back through what you opened.

Both panels show Latest news: headlines from the last two days about the country, or about the event's subject when it has one, with the number of outlets that ran each story. Search the news opens a wider search when you want more.

Switch Country heat to News attention in Layers to shade countries by how much the press is covering them: the articles GDELT placed in each country over the last 24 hours, updated hourly. A country's panel shows both sides for the last day: flagged whale money against its daily average, and news articles against a usual day.

When flagged whale money on a country's markets jumps (at least $10K in a day, twice its daily average over the time range) while its news coverage stays at its usual level, the country gets a dashed outline and a place in the Whales ahead of the news list above the events. The comparison needs a daily average, so it runs on the 7D and 30D ranges. It is a prompt to look closer, not proof of anything: news is measured against each country's own week and the world's overall volume, so a quiet weekend does not make every country look quiet.

Live TV opens a small player of 24/7 news channels (Al Jazeera, NBC, ABC, Sky, UATV, DW, France 24, Euronews, TRT World, WION, CNA and Bloomberg), muted until you unmute it. With Follow the map on, the channel changes with what you open: an event in the Middle East plays Al Jazeera, the UK plays Sky News, Russia or Ukraine plays UATV (Ukraine's English-language international broadcaster, the only 24/7 stream about the war), a crypto market plays Bloomberg. Pick a channel yourself and following turns off until you switch it back on.

Some markets resolve on a broadcast: a Fed press conference, a White House address, a launch. When that official stream is live, the event shows LIVE in the list and a Watch button in its panel, and a player that is following the map switches to it when you open the event. Scheduled broadcasts show their start time.

Layers turns each part of the map on or off: the globe view and its idle spin, country heat, country links, live trades, events with no location, and the Pro timeline and clusters. Your choices are remembered on this device.

The share button copies a link to exactly what you are looking at: the camera, the open event or country, and your time and category filters.

• Before a major geopolitical event, to see whether the smart money has started positioning days ahead of the news cycle.
• After a market-moving event, when a hot country tells you where to look for related markets you might have missed.
• For discovering markets in regions you do not normally follow. The map surfaces activity that a US-centric feed buries.
