Tephra is a financial charting application that displays the level 2 information (price and volume) of market-wide equities in real-time. It is revolutionary in the fact that it shows the execution data in the form of dots and not candlesticks. We believe this will better help users see all the information they need to make their decisions. However, Tephra itself does not give any financial advice or sway the user to make any decisions; it only provides them with the data.
The First Terrace Systems website is where you can read all the information about FTS (the creators of Tephra), such as how to contact support with any issues and more about the company, as well as the future roadmap of Tephra. You must first visit the website and sign up as a user (which includes providing payment) before you can download the application
No, Tephra is a Windows-only desktop application.
Currently, the suggested specs of a Tephra-capable machine are 16 GB RAM, an Intel i7 chip or higher, and preferably, a relatively powerful dedicated GPU, such as the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 or similar. More powerful specifications are always encouraged.
There is an integrated account portal on the website where you can view your personal account information and download the application.
Tephra will only allow one login per username/password at a time. If you are blocked from logging in and you know your password is correct, then you will need to change your password.
