Introductie bij Singularity Trader

1. Welkom bij Singularity Trader

Dit handboek helpt je het handelsplatform te gebruiken. Je leert hoe je trades vastlegt, je prestaties analyseert en communityfuncties gebruikt. Lees de hoofdstukken in willekeurige volgorde, afhankelijk van wat je nu nodig hebt.

2. 🗺️ Jouw Pad naar het Trading-Dashboard

The dashboard guides you through a structured setup process on first launch. Here you find all 9 steps at a glance — with direct links to the matching handbook chapters.

Tip: The dashboard shows your current progress as a progress bar. You can always continue where you left off.
⚙️ Phase 1 — Setup
1
Connect broker accounts & activate automatic updates

Connect your broker accounts so that trades, positions, and balances come into the system automatically.

  • Interactive Brokers (IBKR) — Live & Paper Trading
  • Tastytrade — US broker for active trading
  • Trade Republic — via CSV export
  • Other brokers — via CSV/XML import
Update options: Automatic (daily via Flex Queries / API) · Manual (XML/CSV) · Intraday (optional)
2
Define markets: create or import watchlists

First decide which markets are relevant for you. The system calculates signals and monitors your underlyings based on this.

  • Create watchlists — e.g. "Core Stocks", "Swing Candidates", "Dividends", "Growth"
  • TradingView import — import existing lists directly
  • Organize sections — by sector, strategy, or risk
  • CSV import — upload your own symbol lists
Tip: Start with 2–3 focused watchlists instead of one huge list. Quality over quantity!
3
Draw trend channels & lines

Define important technical levels for your underlyings. These are used in signal calculation and chart display.

  • Trend lines — define uptrends/downtrends with 2 points
  • Trend channels — parallel boundary lines with 4 points
  • Support & Resistance — horizontal support/resistance zones
  • Fibonacci Levels — automatic retracement calculation
  • Timeframes from M1 (minute) to MN (month) — multiple per underlying possible
Important: Focus on the most important levels. Too many lines confuse more than they help.
4
Set up strategies or use templates

Define your trading strategies as clear rule sets — not just in your head, but systematically stored in the system.

  • Ready-made templates: Swing, Breakout, Mean Reversion, Dividends, Wheel, Covered Call
  • Entry conditions — indicators (RSI, MACD, Bollinger), price zones, volatility, earnings distance
  • Exit conditions — price targets, stop loss, time component, theta decay
  • Links to specific watchlists or instrument types
Tip: Start with 2–3 strategies and optimize them before adding more.
5
Configure signals & notifications

Set when and how you want to be informed about trading opportunities — never miss a setup again.

  • Entry signals — Long/Short entry when all conditions are met
  • Exit signals — Take profit, stop loss reached
  • Position signals — Roll, adjust, close
  • Re-entry — re-entry possible after stop
  • Channels: in-app, email, Telegram bot (real-time push)
Tip: Set how "sensitive" the system should be — strong signals only vs. all setups.
6
Check Trading Lights — your daily market weather

The Trading Lights show you at a glance whether today calls for full throttle or defensive play.

  • VIX Level — current market volatility
  • VIX Term Structure — contango/backwardation as a warning signal
  • Fear & Greed Index — market sentiment at a glance
  • IV vs HV — implied vs. historical volatility
  • Account Margin — your risk level per account
● Green — Normal conditions ● Yellow — Increased attention ● Red — High risk, act defensively
Tip: Multi-Chart layouts

Keep several markets or timeframes in view at once: the “Multi-Chart” page shows 1 to 16 full charts in a grid, each cell with its own symbol and timeframe.

  • Grid templates — 1, 2 (side by side or stacked), 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12 or 16 charts
  • Symbol & crosshair sync — can be switched on per layout
  • The symbol search in the page header acts on the active cell, or on all cells when symbol sync is on
  • Name & save layouts — load, “Save as…”, rename or delete
  • Access — via “Multi-Chart” in the trading system navigation (Analysis step) or the toolbar button in the single chart
📝 Phase 2 — Document
7
Document trades & record them in your journal

Imported trades are automatically assigned. Add notes for a complete trading history.

Automatic Assignment
  • Instrument assignment to underlying
  • Strategy matching
  • Campaign grouping
Manual Additions
  • Tags — strategy, setup, market phase
  • Notes — why in? what was missed?
  • Screenshots — chart images for the trade
Trading Journal: Journal entries for trades or campaigns — private, for friends, or publicly visible. Write short notes on important trades (2–3 sentences are enough). This helps enormously during later review!
📈 Phase 3 — Analyze & Grow
8
Analyze performance & optimize strategies

Use the analysis pages to see which strategies work — and which you should kill.

Breakdowns by
  • Strategy
  • Period (month/week/day)
  • Underlying (stocks/indices)
  • Asset class
  • Broker account
Key Metrics
  • Win rate
  • Avg. win / avg. loss
  • Return on capital deployed
  • Equity curve
Tip: Do a short review of your strategies and trades once a week.
