It's designed as a free alternative to TradingView, offering volatility alerts, macro event tracking, and an AI assistant to help traders make faster, smarter decisions.

Yes, Strykr offers a free tier that includes access to core features like AI volatility alerts, market screeners, and real-time signals. Premium plans are available for traders who need advanced features, higher API rate limits, and priority support.

Strykr is available on multiple platforms: Web App (access via any modern browser at app.strykr.ai), iOS App (download from the Apple App Store), and Android App (download from Google Play Store). All platforms sync in real-time, so you'll never miss an alert.

No prior trading experience is required. Strykr is designed for both beginners and professional traders. The AI assistant can explain market concepts, the volatility scores use simple 1-10 ratings, and alerts include clear directional signals. Advanced users can access raw data via the PRISM API.

While TradingView focuses on charting and technical analysis tools, Strykr emphasizes AI-powered signals and automated alerts. Key differences include: AI-first approach with machine learning analyzing 5,000+ assets, proprietary volatility scoring, PRISM API for unified asset resolution, and a generous free tier.

Strykr provides three main types of AI trading signals: Volatility Alerts (real-time notifications when volatility exceeds your threshold), Macro Event Signals (alerts for market-moving events like Fed decisions), and AI Screener Signals (automated detection of unusual price movements and patterns). Each signal includes confidence scores and suggested actions.

Strykr is 100% free to use with ads. Premium ($9.99/month or $89.99/year) removes all ads for an ad-free experience. That's it — no hidden fees, no feature gates. Everyone gets full access to AI chat, market signals, screeners, and economic calendar.

Strykr covers 5,000+ assets: Cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, and 3,000+ altcoins), Stocks (US equities and international stocks), Forex (major and minor currency pairs), and Commodities (gold, silver, oil). New assets are added continuously as our AI discovers them.

Strykr aggregates data from major cryptocurrency exchanges including Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Bybit, OKX, Bitget, KuCoin, and Huobi. Our PRISM API provides a unified view across all venues, eliminating ticker confusion and data fragmentation.

Yes, Strykr includes portfolio tracking features: import holdings from exchanges via API or manual entry, real-time P&L calculations, portfolio allocation visualization, performance analytics with benchmarking, and tax lot tracking. Connect multiple exchange accounts to see everything in one dashboard.

Absolutely. Strykr's alert system is fully customizable: set custom volatility thresholds (1-10 scale), choose delivery channels (push notifications, email, SMS, Telegram, Discord), filter by asset type or watchlists, schedule quiet hours, and create complex multi-criteria conditions.

Strykr's AI uses multiple machine learning models: Volatility Model (analyzes price, volume, order book data), Sentiment Model (processes news, social media, on-chain data), Pattern Recognition (identifies technical patterns), and Event Correlation (maps macro events to price impacts). Models are trained on years of data and continuously updated.

A volatility score is Strykr's proprietary metric measuring expected price movement on a 1-10 scale: 1-3 (Low) calm market, 4-6 (Medium) normal volatility, 7-8 (High) potential breakout forming, 9-10 (Extreme) major move expected. Scores are updated every 15 minutes based on multiple factors.

Strykr's AI signals are designed for edge, not certainty. Historical performance shows: 78% accuracy for high-volatility predictions, 62% accuracy on 24-hour directional calls, and strong correlation for macro impact scores. We publish transparent backtesting results. Past performance doesn't guarantee future results.

The Strykr AI assistant is your personal trading co-pilot. Ask natural language questions about any asset, get explanations of technical indicators, request portfolio analysis, generate custom trading strategies, and receive personalized market briefings. Powered by large language models fine-tuned on financial data.

Signal update frequency varies: Volatility scores every 15 minutes, Price data real-time via WebSocket (sub-second latency), Macro events immediate upon detection, AI screener continuous with instant alerts, Daily briefings at market open. Pro users can access faster intervals via API.

Yes! Strykr provides everything for trading bots: PRISM API with RESTful endpoints, WebSocket feeds for real-time streaming, official SDKs for Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, and Go, step-by-step tutorials, and historical signals for backtesting. Many professional traders use Strykr signals in their automated systems.

PRISM is Strykr's unified asset resolution API. It solves the problem of different tickers across exchanges (BTC, XBT, BTCUSDT). PRISM provides canonical IDs (one universal identifier per asset), cross-exchange mapping, self-learning registry (auto-discovers new assets), and real-time updates as markets evolve.

Getting started takes under 5 minutes: Sign up at app.strykr.ai for your API key, install the SDK with 'npm install @strykr/prism-sdk', then make your first call to resolve an asset. Free tier includes 1,000 API calls per month. Full documentation at docs.strykr.ai/prism.

PRISM API has a generous free tier: Free includes 1,000 requests/month, basic endpoints, community support. Pro ($29/month) offers 100,000 requests/month, all endpoints, email support. Enterprise provides unlimited requests with dedicated infrastructure and SLA guarantee.

PRISM offers official SDKs for JavaScript/TypeScript (full SDK with type definitions), Python (async support), Go (high-performance), and REST API (works with any HTTP-capable language). Community libraries available for Rust, Ruby, and PHP. All SDKs are open source on GitHub.

Yes, PRISM offers WebSocket feeds for real-time data: subscribe to specific assets or entire classes, receive instant updates when mappings change, stream live price data across exchanges, and get push notifications for new asset discoveries. WebSocket included in Pro and Enterprise plans.

Canonical asset resolution maps any ticker, symbol, or contract address to a single authoritative identity. 'BTC', 'XBT', 'BTCUSDT', 'WBTC' all resolve to Bitcoin's canonical ID. Contract addresses resolve to correct token metadata. This eliminates cross-exchange confusion and enables portfolio aggregation.

Strykr is built with enterprise-grade security: SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure, end-to-end encryption for all data, two-factor authentication (2FA), API key management with granular permissions, read-only API keys only, and regular third-party security audits. We never have access to your funds.
