Practical overview
When it fits
Use it when you want a configurable command-line workflow for cryptocurrency technical analysis and alert delivery, rather than a graphical trading interface.
Who it is for
- Crypto market watchers who want indicator-based monitoring across supported exchanges.
- Developers who want modular code for implementing or experimenting with trading strategies.
Documented uses
- Review market data using indicators such as RSI, moving averages, MACD and VWAP.
- Monitor assets on supported exchanges.
- Route analysis alerts to email, SMS, Slack, Telegram or Discord.
- Build custom trading-strategy experiments on the modular codebase.
Requirements & limits
The repository is public and specifies an MIT license. The documented installation uses Docker CE and a locally created config.yml file.
- The listed indicators include momentum, RSI, Ichimoku Cloud, simple and exponential moving averages, MACD, MFI, OBV and VWAP.
- Alert destinations include email, SMS through Twilio, Slack, Telegram and Discord.
- The README reports that data history, timeframe freshness and candle-period alignment can cause readings to differ from TradingView.
- The project describes its development state as beta and says documentation may lag behind the code.
Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
Prepare Crypto Signal with Docker
Set up the documented Docker-based configuration and start the command-line application.
Before you start
- Docker CE installed
- A config.yml file in the current directory, configured using the project’s configuration guide
Steps
Install Docker CE.
Create and configure config.yml using the repository’s configuration documentation.
Run the documented Docker command with config.yml mounted at /app/config.yml: docker run --rm -v $PWD/config.yml:/app/config.yml shadowreaver/crypto-signal:master
Expected outcome
The documented command starts the application using the mounted configuration file.
Guide limitations
- The README says documentation can lag behind the code.
- The setup instructions do not establish that the resulting indicator values will match other analysis services.
