# Working with the Detectors Interface

To manage detectors in the Moonbot terminal, use the “💡 **Strategies”** button located in the upper-right corner of the terminal interface, in the **section that handles detectors, strategies, reports, and market data**. Clicking this button opens the **Strategies** window, where you can create and manage your detectors.

The **Strategies** window displays a list of all created detectors. Each entry shows the detector's name and current status—whether it is active or disabled. This makes it easy to quickly identify which detectors are currently monitoring the market.

To create a new detector, click **Add new**. This opens the strategy type selection window, where you can choose the desired detector type and proceed with configuration. Existing detectors can be edited, enabled, or disabled without deleting them.

All detector management actions are performed directly within the **Strategies** window, allowing centralized configuration of market monitoring logic and supporting a gradual transition from manual market analysis to a more automated approach in Moonbot.
