Chart pattern alerts:
common questions.
What the workspace shows, when data updates, and what to expect from the current trial preview.
Who is PatternAlerts for?
Self-directed traders and investors who use chart patterns and follow multiple instruments. PatternAlerts helps you discover and review chart conditions, then investigate them with your own analysis.
Which markets and timeframes can I use?
Explore supported stocks, crypto, forex, futures, and commodities. Instruments, available history, timeframes, and update schedules vary by market. Check the instrument in the application for its available data. Company fundamentals are stock-specific.
Can I choose which pattern updates I see?
Yes. Organize symbols into watchlists and filter by pattern type, timeframe, and event. Configure watchlist rules and choose from the notification options available in your account.
Does a detected pattern tell me what to trade?
A detection identifies a chart condition for you to examine. Open the pattern, review its context, and make your own decision. PatternAlerts provides technical-analysis tools; patterns can fail. Historical pattern statistics describe recorded outcomes and do not guarantee future performance.
How often do patterns update?
Patterns are evaluated as eligible closed candles become available. Timing varies by instrument, timeframe, exchange session, and provider delay. Available intervals and history are shown in the application. A live price quote does not mean every pattern or company-data panel updates tick by tick.
How does the free trial work?
The planned Pro trial lasts 7 days. Signup is currently a preview: it does not create an account or take payment. When trials open, a credit card is planned, and you will choose a plan at signup. Review final pricing and renewal terms before starting; cancel before the trial ends to avoid a charge.
Do alerts arrive by email, Telegram, or browser push?
In-app alerts are available. Email, Telegram, and browser delivery are shown in settings but are not connected yet.
Are reports based on my account activity?
The reports area currently displays sample reports with illustrative alerts, setups, and trade states. Personalized performance reporting is not available yet.
Is signup open now?
No. The current signup flow is a preview. It does not create an account or take payment. Confirm final trial and billing terms when signup opens.
