1. Supported Indicators and Applicable Scenarios
The KTX platform currently supports alerts for the following five types of technical indicators, covering mainstream trading signal requirements:
Indicator | Core Alert Rules | Applicable Scenarios |
MACD | Golden cross, death cross, DEA crossing the zero axis, bullish/bearish divergence | Trend reversals and swing trading signal alerts |

BB (Bollinger Bands) | Overbought/oversold, golden/death cross of the middle band, bandwidth expansion/contraction | Range breakouts, trend continuation, and assessment of sideways markets |
Volume | Greater than | Monitoring volume-backed breakouts and abnormal volume movements |
MA (Moving Average) | Crosses, crosses above, crosses below, greater than, less than | Trend following and alerts for breakouts of key support and resistance levels |
2. How to Set Up Indicator Alerts (Using MACD as an Example)
1. Select Indicator Alerts
Open the candlestick chart page for the target trading instrument
Click the 【Alerts ⏰】 icon button in the chart toolbar
Switch to the (Indicator Alerts) tab to enter the combined alert configuration interface
2. Complete the Parameter Configuration and Create an Indicator Alert (MACD, RSI, and Other Mainstream Market Indicators Are Supported)
After all combined conditions have been configured and you have confirmed that the logic matches your trading strategy, customize the alert notification method, trigger frequency, expiration time, and notes at the bottom of the page. After verifying that all parameters are correct, click 【Create】 to complete the indicator alert.
⚠️ Important note: The current interface uses a BTC/USDT 5-minute candlestick chart. The golden cross parameters configured here are only applicable to the daily timeframe. After switching to a chart with another timeframe, the time difference will not take effect.
3. Technical Indicator Alert Configuration Guide
Indicator Name | Alert Rule (Trigger Condition) | Signal Source (Optional) | Trigger Method | Alert Validity Period/Frequency | Notes (Example) |
MACD | Golden cross, death cross, DEA (slow line) crossing the zero axis, bearish divergence, bullish divergence | Opening price, closing price, highest price, lowest price | In-platform message, app push notification, email, Discord, Telegram | Frequency: one-time alert / alert each time the conditions are met; an expiration date can be set | MACD golden cross buy signal |
RSI | Crosses, crosses above, crosses below, greater than, or less than the set threshold | - | In-platform message, app push notification, email, Discord, Telegram | Frequency: one-time alert / alert each time the conditions are met; an expiration date can be set | RSI crosses above trigger value 50 |
Bollinger Bands (BB) | Overbought, oversold, golden cross of the middle band, death cross of the middle band, bandwidth expansion, bandwidth contraction | - | In-platform message, app push notification, email, Discord, Telegram | Frequency: one-time alert / alert each time the conditions are met; an expiration date can be set | BB upper band overbought signal |

Notes
- Signal filtering: The same indicator can be used in combination with other technical indicator timeframes. For example, a 30-minute MACD golden cross + 4-hour RSI not overbought (or holding above a 4-hour support level) can improve signal effectiveness.
- Frequency settings: In sideways markets, selecting 「One-time alert only」 is recommended to avoid repeated triggers. In trending markets, you can select 「Alert each time the conditions are met」 to track trend continuation signals.
- Multi-channel notifications: It is recommended to enable both app push notifications and in-platform messages to ensure that important signals are not missed.
- Notes management: Add clear notes to each alert to facilitate quick identification of signal types later in 「Alert History」.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
- Alert does not trigger: Check whether the indicator is selected, whether the parameters are set correctly (such as the timeframe and trigger value), and whether the notification channels are enabled.
- Repeated triggers: Change the alert frequency to 「One-time alert only」, or optimize the trigger conditions (for example, by adding multi-indicator combination filters).
