200-Day Moving Average
The 200-day moving average is one of the most important indicators in technical analysis. It helps you recognize long-term trends quickly and understand whether an asset is showing strength or weakness. Wavealert allows you to display both the 50-day and 200-day trendlines directly in the asset chart — and set alerts when these lines are crossed.
Why the 200-day moving average matters
This indicator provides a clear picture of long-term momentum:
- Price above the 200-day line: often signals a sustained uptrend
- Price below the 200-day line: may indicate long-term weakness
- Large deviations: can highlight potential buy or sell opportunities
Combined with the 50-day line, you get a compact overview of short- and long-term dynamics.
Displaying trendlines in the chart
In each asset’s detail view, you can enable the 50-day and 200-day moving averages with a single tap.
You immediately see:
- long-term trend direction
- whether key support or resistance levels are being tested
- how price reacts around major trendlines
Alerts for crossing the 50-day or 200-day line
Wavealert notifies you automatically when an asset crosses either trendline — upwards or downwards.
This means:
- no need to monitor charts constantly
- no missed trend reversals
- your strategy reacts automatically to technical signals
Example:
You track a long-term ETF and want to buy only if a new uptrend forms.
Wavealert alerts you as soon as the ETF breaks above the 200-day line — including news and your personal notes.
