News & Sentiment

How real-time news and social signals drive trading decisions.

Real-Time News Trading

Smartbull ingests news from 3 sources in real time:

  • CryptoPanic — aggregated crypto news with pre-scored sentiment
  • Twitter/X — monitoring 500+ crypto influencers and breaking news accounts
  • Telegram — whale alert channels and insider groups

Each news item is scored by NLP for: - Sentiment (bullish/bearish/neutral) - Impact (high/medium/low based on historical price reactions) - Relevance (which assets are affected)

High-impact bullish news triggers immediate entry signals. High-impact bearish news blocks all new positions and can trigger exits.

On-Chain Intelligence

The on-chain module tracks:

  • Whale wallets — large holder movements (accumulation/distribution)
  • DEX flows — smart money trading patterns on Uniswap, GMX, etc.
  • Exchange inflows/outflows — potential sell/buy pressure signals
  • Funding rates — cross-venue funding for carry opportunities

These signals are combined with technical and sentiment data for a complete market picture.
