TradingView Alerts with KuCoin

Automating TradingView alerts for KuCoin

When it comes to using TradingView alerts on KuCoin, the best way to build a good automated strategy is to use signals in conjunction with a reliable automation service provider such as WunderTrading. Alerts can be used manually, but their value diminishes as active retail traders usually don’t need reminders to enter a market position if they spend a sufficient amount of time in the market.

On the other hand, people who want to run complex trading systems like statistical arbitrage or feel that they do not have enough spare time to actively trade on their own will think that automation is a game-changer which it is.

Here are some reasons why you might want to use automated trading systems for crypto KuCoin alerts received from the TradingView platform:

• Bots do not need to rest or sleep. It means that they can be operations around the clock 7 days of the week. In a market that never stops trading, this quality is often decisive and allows bots to outperform the market.
• Many people struggle to achieve consistent results due to our inherent inconsistency. Our mood depends on a variety of factors. We may feel confident and decisive on Monday and second-guess every decision on Tuesday. Bots do not hesitate or make mistakes, they just follow instructions.
• The API connection between an automation vendor and exchange allows for instantaneous communication, fast-paced order placement, and improved efficiency. While human traders have to deal with the user interface thus losing time, bots can bypass it to place it order just in time to not miss out on an opportunity.

How to maximize profits with TradingView alerts on KuCoin

It is possible to create a highly efficient and consistently performing automated trading system using signals generated by a sophisticated technical analysis strategy deployed on a TradingView chart. However, some of these systems will work better on certain exchanges and using very specific asset pairs.

• Focus on trading assets that have high volume and liquidity at KuCoin. $USDT, $BTC, $WLD, $KCS, and $ETH are all good options that enjoy popularity among traders and regularly surpass $5 million in daily trading volume.
• Make sure to protect your portfolio from excess risks. Every individual retail trader has their own risk style. Use various tools offered by the WunderTrading platform to adjust the risk level and ensure that you won’t suffer significant losses.
• Search for sophisticated technical analysis strategies approved by the community at TradingView. Many power users post their ideas and analytical approaches for free. Users can test them. They often comment on how well their experiments went. Choose strategies that were verified by the community as reliable and consistent.
• Iterate regularly and update your strategy while trading. It is a good idea to use the strategy testing feature on TradingView and the back-testing functionality at WunderTrading to check whether a strategy has potential before launching it in the real market. On the other hand, you can continue iterating and making adjustments as you gather data on the performance of your strategy.

The best settings for effective TradingView alerts on KuCoin

Many retail traders believe that the ability to customize your automated trading system is the most important advantage provided by the contemporary financial automation industry. At WunderTrading you can use a myriad of ways to ensure that your KuCoin TradingView alerts settings are finely tuned for excellent performance.

Below are some parameters that you should tinker with to adjust bots as you see fit:

• First and foremost, use meta information like bot name, description, target exchange, and target asset pair. You will improve your workflow and make it easier to build advanced trading systems in the future. Managing your automation portfolio will be also much more convenient if you spend a couple of minutes naming everything and ensuring that bots know where to trade.
• Selecting the right time frame is hugely important. It must match the settings at TradingView and also reflect the level of risk that you are willing to take. Working with the 1H time frame can be very challenging and dangerous while increasing the time frame will gradually reduce the risk level as you will have more time to react and adapt or contemplate your next moves.
• Make sure to limit the amount of funds available to your bot. It is a crucial step as it limits the exposure of your total portfolio to risks. Do not allow bots to use everything. The commonly used ratio is about 10% of the portfolio for any given market position. You can also set up a specific value to ensure that bots never exceed a certain position size.
• The number of simultaneously active positions must be kept in check at all times. Some strategies assume the use of multiple coexisting market positions (DCA, GRID, some arbitrage systems, etc.), but if you do not run such a system, do not allow bots to open more than one market position at a time.
• Use take profit and stop loss orders to further protect your positions from volatility risks. Many experts believe that using 1:2 or 1:3 ratios is the best approach to setting up TP/SL. The ratio is the SL limit to TP limit. For example, when you have a 10% SL order, use 20% or 30% for your TP order.
