A TradingView alternative built around crypto order flow.

Many more markets

TradingView says it connects to more than 3.5 million instruments from exchanges worldwide. AlertaChart covers crypto on five exchanges, stocks from the US, the UK, Hong Kong and mainland China, about fifty forex pairs and 33 CME futures.

A much larger script library

TradingView lists more than 100,000 community indicators written in Pine Script®. AlertaChart has its own language, AlertaScript, and a smaller community library; a Pine script may need changes before it runs here.

Trading through a broker

TradingView lets you trade through selected brokers from the chart and from its Depth of Market. AlertaChart has no broker trading: Alerta Practice (Pro) trades a virtual balance.

Alerts that run with the app closed, on every plan

TradingView alerts run on its servers on every plan, Basic included, and every plan gets push notifications. AlertaChart watches alerts with the app closed only on paid plans; every alert on Free works while AlertaChart is open.

Company research

TradingView adds financial statements on the chart, global economic data and screeners for stocks, ETFs, DEX pairs and crypto.

A larger free plan

TradingView Basic loads 5,000 historical bars and keeps 3 price alerts that run on its servers. AlertaChart Free loads 2,500 bars and 2 alerts that work while the app is open.

Order flow across five exchanges

Five aggregated panels — CVD, open interest, funding, net long/short and liquidations — add up a coin’s order flow on Binance, Bybit, OKX, Coinbase and Hyperliquid, each counting the exchanges that publish that data. They sit next to the footprint, trade bubbles and liquidation heatmap. Pro and Elite.

Notifications for crypto markets

Pro adds funding-rate and volume-spike alerts in Settings and, on mobile, a notification for every single liquidation of 1 million dollars or more. From Starter, you hear about new listings on Binance, Bybit, Coinbase and Upbit the moment they are announced.

Scripts that read order flow

AlertaScript is AlertaChart’s language for indicators and strategies (on every plan), with a strategy tester. With Pro, a script can read funding, open interest, CVD, net longs and shorts and liquidations as series — for one exchange or all of them, such as AGG:BTC.P_OI.

The same limits for less

From Starter up, charts per tab, indicators per chart, price alerts and history match the TradingView plan at the same level, for a lower monthly price — Pro is ~$40.01 a month, Premium $69.95. TradingView includes technical alerts earlier, from Essential.
