Crypto Signals: What They Are & How to Use Them
Trading alerts can help, but without discipline, they can hurt more than they help.
Introduction to Crypto Signals
Crypto signals are alerts or recommendations that tell you when to buy, sell, or hold an asset. They can come from:
Analysts
Automated bots
Signal groups or apps
Signals aim to simplify trading decisions, but they are not guarantees.
How Signals Work
Signals are based on technical indicators, price action, or algorithms.
They often include:
Entry price
Exit price (target)
Stop-loss recommendation
Some are manual (analyst-driven). Others are fully automated.
Types of Signals
Buy/Sell Alerts: Suggested entry/exit points.
Trend Signals: Identify uptrends or downtrends.
Volume/Breakout Alerts: Highlight unusual activity.
Custom Signals: Built from indicators like RSI, MACD, or moving averages.
