No, mine also has a limit they only give 2 indicators if you add more it will ask for a subscription.

Then I guess they decided to reduce the limit to 2 so that people are forced to subscribe. A few months back, the limit for a free account was 3 indicators.

If you want to use it free without a subscription and you have a Binance account you can use the trading view there by changing the chart mode to TradingView it supports more than 2 indicators than waiting for black Friday to subscribe for a 1-year subscription.

Yeah, Binance is trying so hard to add features that one would have to pay for on TradingView like time frames that are less than a minute. They also have an option for one to build his custom indicator using basic pine scripts but still lack that option to show community scripts like those on TradingView.

Frankly, I rarely use TradingView, but I rely on the TradingView tool integrated with exchanges like Binance and other large exchanges.

Most exchanges provide this tool within the charts so I find it easier to use it instead of going to the TradingView website every time, although this tool does not provide full features but it is sufficient for the purpose for me.

You are right, but recently I noticed the limit is now 2 indicators allowed for free accounts, or is it just for my account? I have been on a paid plan, until it expired recently. I am waiting for the Black Friday deals, so I can subscribe annually.

I have been recommending them since the first use in 2021, their way of displaying prices and controlling the screen was amazing, I am shocked to not see them again. Frankly, it has become annoying to search for alternatives, but I have begun to feel that any service that is acquired ends up badly.

I don't use Kraken and was planning to use them this week.

Now I need to look for an alternative.

I think there is still another charting tool for free like I think MetaTrader

I have really failed to like Metatrader. I don't know why. Maybe because I got too used to the likes of Tradingview

or stay with TradingView(The free service is more than enough to analyze the chart) these two are free to use and a good alternative for cryptowat.ch.

Kraken acquired it in 2017 and has been able to handle it well and even brought it into more limelight. For this, it's not independent, but all hope has not been lost since Kraken promised to infuse the service into their platform, which I believe they would have done by now.

I logged into the Kraken Pro account I have, and it felt nothing like the old cryptowat.ch I was used to. The thing I liked most about it was the desktop app/terminal option. Also, you have to verify your kraken pro account, so I gave up Grin

Hehehe...I do advise traders not to depend on anything, or else, they would be disappointed when that thing is no more. I've witnessed many important and useful trading pieces, tools, resources and software over the decades, which taught me the way you have to be independent of everything in trading so far there is a trading terminal to access from exchanges.

Back to Crytowat.ch, the site didn't just disappear, Kraken issued the scheduled fade off of it until September.

That's bad news for those who use cryptowat.ch I sometimes use this to learn and to test some strategies and their tool is completely free to use and a good alternative for tradingview.

I think there is still another charting tool for free like I think MetaTrader or stay with TradingView(The free service is more than enough to analyze the chart) these two are free to use and a good alternative for cryptowat.ch.

Remember the once awesome crypto Technical analysis and trading terminal, one of the best alternatives to Tradingview? Well it's no more thanks to Kraken. They acquired it sometime back and then decided to abandon it Embarrassed

I didn't know this until recently when I tried to check on their website. I usually used the software until to stopped working for a while. On checking the site, I would just get redirected to this blog Cryptowatch to sunset: Kraken Pro to integrate Cryptowatch features which I see as a lie. Anyway I don't use Kraken.

What is it with this crypto exchanges and ruining good projects. I remember how blockfolio got ruined by FTX
