Technical Analysis + Bitcoin

Even though both of them are automated, TA strategies are significantly more powerful than bots. Strategies run directly on the exchange's servers - orders submitted by them will reach the exchange's matching engine way before any orders submitted by bots.

Furthermore, TA strategies can be created just like regular orders. In fact, you use the same buttons to create the strategies, as you use, when you place orders.

Bots are not trivial to create. You will rarely have more than a couple of bots active at once. With strategies, on the other hand, it's entirely plausible to have more than that. Strategies can be extremely short-lived.

You might create a strategy simply to act as a stop loss - it will automatically close your active position when your chosen conditions are met. Unlike a regular stop loss, the strategy can act on complex relationships between indicators. An example would be the following strategy:

Close my long position when Stochastic crosses above 60 and the 7-period EMA is below the 14-period EMA.

A sophisticated technical analyst might have 10 different TA strategies active at once. Some of them would be designated as stop losses, some of them as take profits, and some of them as a way of entering new positions.

Think of TA strategies as a faster and more light-weight alternative to bots.

One of the beauties of TA strategies is that they don't require any hardware or code to run.

Creating a strategy takes less than 30 seconds. It's just like a submitting a slightly more complex limit order - you literally use the same button to submit the strategy as you use when you place a limit order.

To get started, check out our TA Strategy Introduction.

No problem. You can put your TA strategy in Manual Trading Mode. It will notify you when your chosen conditions are met. You can then act on the opportunity manually.

TA signals are Long/Short signals that are based exclusively on technical analysis.

Simple example of a bullish signal: The Awesome Oscillator has crossed above 0, and the latest candle is green.

Mushino supports more than 200 TA signals out of the box.

TA signals should never stand alone. They should always be combined with proper chart analysis, and with TA events. To read more about TA signals, check out our TA Signal Introduction.

Your Signal Feed is where all of your TA signals are aggregated.

The feed also contains a Market Temperature Score. This is the overall trend of all of your signals. It ranges from -10 to 10 (where -10 is super bearish, and 10 is super bullish).

All of the signals in your Signal Feed can be explored on the main Tradingview chart. Just click on a specific signal to plot it.

Note: By default, your Signal Feed includes all possible signals, across all possible time intervals. This configuration will generate a lot of noise. You are encouraged to customize the feed in a way so that only the indicators and time intervals, that you find most essential, are included.

Find out how to do so in our Customization Introduction.

TA events are a new and powerful way to detect new divergences and crossovers. The divergences and crossovers are detected automatically, as they happen, and transmitted to you in real-time.

Your Event Feed is where all of your TA events are aggregated.

Every TA event has a sentiment attached to it: It can be either bearish, bullish or neutral. An example of a bullish TA event is a positive MACD signal crossover. This event takes place when the MACD crosses above the MACD signal line, and is considered a confirmation of bullish momentum.

You can plot each of the events on the Tradingview chart. This will allow you to examine them further.

Just like TA signals, TA events can be a powerful tool, but they should never stand on their own. They should always be combined with proper chart analysis.

To maximize the benefits that you gain from your Event Feed, you will need to customize it.

Discover how to get the most of TA events in our TA Events Introduction.

Indicator widgets provide you with sub-second updates for all of your favorite technical indicators. Each indicator has its own little chart that you can use to monitor its movement. When the small chart is not enough, you can simply plot the indicator on the main Tradingview chart.

The widgets change color, as they turn bullish or bearish. Bullish indicators become green, while bearish indicators become red.

The widgets enable you to spot new trends immediately, as they happen - with a sub-second delay. They are also used to create TA strategies and TA notifications.

You can learn more about Indicator widgets in our Indicator Widget Introduction.
