II. Quick Alert Creation Steps: MACD Example
Step 1: Add the Target Indicator
Go to the Bitunix Futures Trading interface, find Technical Indicators in the chart bar, click to open it, and search for the target indicator, such as MACD. Select the indicator from the search results and add it to the chart.

Step 3: Configure Alert Parameters
After clicking, the Create Alert window will appear. The system will automatically fill in the basic indicator parameters. You only need to configure the key settings for each indicator.

IV. Precautions
- Signal Filtering: The same indicator can be combined with other technical indicators and timeframes to improve signal accuracy. For example, users may combine a 30-minute MACD golden cross with a 4-hour RSI that is not overbought, or use a 4-hour support level as an additional confirmation signal.
- Frequency Settings: In a ranging or choppy market, it is recommended to choose one-time alert to avoid repeated triggers. In a trending market, users may choose alert every time the conditions are met to track trend continuation signals.
- Multi-Channel Notifications: It is recommended to enable app push notification and inbox notification at the same time to avoid missing important trading signals.
- Remark Management: Add clear notes to each alert so the signal type can be quickly identified later in the Alert Records section.
V. Troubleshooting FAQs
Alert not triggered:
Check whether the indicator has been selected, whether the parameter settings are correct, such as the period and trigger value, and whether the notification channel is enabled.
Repeated triggers:
Adjust the alert frequency to one-time alert, or optimize the trigger conditions by adding multi-indicator filtering.
