What is EMAMA Terminal?

EMAMA is a crypto trading and analysis platform built around one core idea: price always returns to its mean. Instead of chasing patterns and guessing where price might go, the terminal shows you where capital is actually flowing — in real time, across your entire watchlist.

It's built for traders who want to stop reacting to price and start reading the forces behind it.

What it gives you:

  • A clear picture of the real market structure — not lagging indicators or recycled TA signals

  • Three purpose-built tools (Birch Matrix, ADP, Trend Dominance) that work together as a system

  • A full trading environment — screener, alerts, order execution, risk rules, and performance analytics — in one place

→ For a full breakdown of the philosophy and how the indicators work together, see the Introductory Guide

What should I do after creating an account?

Here's the recommended path to get set up properly:

  1. Create your first watchlist — choose your market (Binance or Bybit, Spot or Futures) and select the assets you want to track. This is the foundation everything else runs on.

  2. Customize your timeframes — set the timeframes that match how you trade.

  3. Set up alerts — configure your first notifications so the terminal watches the market for you.

  4. Connect your exchange account — add your API key from Binance or Bybit if you want to trade directly from the terminal.

  5. Link Telegram — to receive alerts on your phone without being in the browser.

  6. Explore the settings — take a few minutes to go through the app settings before your first live trade.

→ If you're not ready for real trading yet, Demo mode is active by default and doesn't require any exchange connection.

BASIC is a great way to explore the indicators and learn how the platform reads the market before committing to a plan.

PRO is where the full toolset opens up — 27 timeframes, 6,000 candle history, Risk Management, and 4 custom lists. That's the setup most active traders use.

PREMIUM removes all limits.

How do I connect a real trading account?

  1. Open App Settings from the top-right menu and go to Credentials

  2. Paste your API Key and Secret Key from your Binance or Bybit account

  3. To generate these keys, go to your exchange → Account Settings → API Management

  4. Make sure the API key has trading permissions enabled (read + trade; withdrawals are not required and should be left off)

  5. Save and verify the connection

Once connected, your live account balance will sync and you can start placing real orders directly from the terminal.

Important: Only one real account per exchange is supported. Demo mode remains available alongside your real account.

⚠️ Before you start trading: IP whitelist setup

To execute trades directly from EMAMA Terminal, your exchange needs to allow API requests from our platform's IP address. This is a standard security requirement on Binance and Bybit — without it, the connection will be established but orders won't go through.

One-time setup:

  1. Go to your exchange account → API Management → find your API key settings

  2. Enable IP restriction and add the following address to the allowed list: 154.48.217.244

  3. Save the changes on the exchange side

  4. Add your API key in EMAMA App Settings → Credentials

  5. You're ready to trade

This only needs to be done once. If you run into any issues during setup, reach out to us via Telegram support — we'll walk you through it.

How do I set up a Demo account?

Demo mode is active by default — you don't need to do anything to enable it. If you haven't connected a real exchange account, you're already in Demo.

To create a dedicated demo trading environment:

  1. Open the List selector in the top-right menu

  2. Click Create a new trade

  3. Select DEMO as the account type

  4. Set a starting deposit amount

  5. Give it a name and confirm

Each demo account maintains its own separate trade history, which makes it easy to test different strategies side by side without mixing up results.

How do I link my Telegram?

  1. Open App Settings from the top-right menu

  2. Find the Connect to TG section and follow the connection instructions

  3. Start the EMAMA platform bot in Telegram when prompted

  4. Once linked, any alert set to "Telegram" delivery will arrive as a bot message

This is the recommended setup if you don't want to monitor the browser tab — alerts will reach you on your phone the moment conditions are met.

→ See Notifications to learn how to create and configure alerts
