Adding Indicators
Indicators are the data your agent uses to make decisions. Without them, it's trading blind. Adding an indicator gives your agent a new way to read the market — and it takes about 10 seconds.
How to Add an Indicator
- Open your agent's configuration
- Scroll to the Indicators section
- Click Add Indicator
- Pick one from the list (RSI, EMA, MACD, Bollinger Bands, or any custom indicator)
- Save
That's it. On its next check-in, your agent will start using it.
How Many Can I Add?
Depends on your plan:
- Free — 1 indicator, from a curated set of 10 essentials (EMA, SMA, MACD, RSI, Bollinger Bands, Stochastic, ATR, ADX, VWAP, OBV)
- Pro — 3 indicators, from the full library, plus custom indicator creation
- Elite — 5 indicators, from the full library, plus custom indicator creation
More isn't always better. A single trend indicator like EMA can carry a clean strategy on its own. When you have room for more, pairing a trend indicator (EMA) with a momentum indicator (RSI or MACD) is a powerful combo. Adding indicators doesn't automatically mean better results.
What Happens After You Add One
Once an indicator is attached, it becomes a tool your agent can call during analysis. The agent doesn't just passively look at it — it actively decides when to call each indicator, on what timeframe, and with what settings, based on your strategy.
