Crypto and stock analysis

How a zone is read

Flicker is a pre-trade check for crypto and US stocks: a buy, hold or sell read, its reasons, and the exit before the entry. It never trades for you.

A buy zone is a price area where an asset has found buyers before, marked from support, resistance and the volume traded there. Every zone comes with a stop loss and a target, so the exit is set before the entry.

Accumulation and distribution zones mark quieter buying after a fall and quieter selling after a rise. The read beside each zone is a separate thing, Flicker's Buy, Hold or Sell verdict, so a Hold next to a distribution zone is not a contradiction.

The list uses the daily read and is free. The 1-hour and 15-minute reads are part of Pro.

Frequently asked questions

• What is a buy zone?

  A buy zone is a price area where an asset has found buyers before, marked from support, resistance and the volume traded there. Each zone comes with a stop loss and at least one target.

• What do the stop and reward:risk mean?

  The stop is the price where Flicker's read is wrong and you'd get out, sized to the chart's own volatility. Reward:risk compares the distance to the first target with the distance to the stop: at 2, the target is twice as far away as the stop.

• How often does the list update?

  The page is rebuilt every minute, and the list refreshes every 30 seconds while it is open. The time in the first line says when the reads it counts were made.

• Can I set an alert at a zone?

  Yes. Choose Tell me at entry on a row and Flicker alerts you when the price reaches the edge of the zone; inside a zone you can set the alert at the stop or the target instead. A free account holds up to 10 alerts.

• Are these zones advice?

  No. A zone marks price levels for your own research and doesn't know your situation. Analysis, not advice. Prices move; you can lose money.
