Product clarity / FIELD NOTES

Signals, indicator alerts and software licences: three different things

A Telegram alert can come from an indicator without giving you the indicator itself. Here is how to tell the products apart.

By CryptoSignals Store editorial team · Reviewed 2026-09-22

A signal is a published idea

A signal usually describes a market opportunity or condition. It may be written by a person, generated by software or assembled from both. The amount of context varies: some posts include a chart and rationale; others are short alerts. The fact that something is called a signal does not establish its quality or suitability.

An indicator is a tool running on data

An indicator processes market inputs and displays outputs on a chart or another interface. Its behaviour can depend on the instrument, interval and settings. A personal indicator subscription can let you inspect and change those settings. Reading a forwarded alert generally does not.

An indicator alert is one output

When a configured condition occurs, an indicator may emit a message. Forwarding that message gives the reader the output, not the entire charting environment. If the original settings are not shown, do not assume you can reconstruct the exact configuration from a short caption. Two feeds using the same indicator brand may still describe different setups.

What this store supplies

CryptoSignals Store provides access to available indicator-derived alerts and signal feeds through the member directory. A personal TradingView licence, original script source and provider account are not included. This distinction applies even when the public catalogue uses the indicator’s brand name to identify its output.

A simple comparison checklist

Before paying for any offer, identify the deliverable in plain language. This prevents a price comparison between products that do different jobs.

  • Will I receive messages, software access or both?
  • Can I change indicator settings on my own charts?
  • Does the offer include original provider support or only the redistributed feed?
  • Are automation and exchange connections separate products?
