Technical Analysis: Moving Average Crossover Notifications #13

Open srglnd opened 3 years ago

srglnd commented 3 years ago

Add notifications for moving average crossovers on majors (ETH, BTC). It would be best to implement for 4h and daily timeframes (bc crossovers are stronger signals on these higher timeframes). We will need to use a better API than coingecko provides to get the time resolution we need for this, I think cryptowatch API is the place to start. Cryptowatch provides both Websocket and REST API access.

Background on Moving Average Crossovers can be found here. It is a very simple trading indicator that can have false positives but very powerful when the markets aren't choppy (i.e. have a clear bias and aren't trading sideways).

I would like to contribute to this one too. I will look into API access for cryptowatch, I already have several hundred paid API credits on their platform that we can use.
