Active indicators

RSI

RSI is a momentum oscillator. In the current template it is threshold-based:

• oversold = buy
• overbought = sell
• everything else = hold

Defaults:

• balanced = 70 / 30
• tighter = 65 / 35
• wider = 80 / 20

Important nuance:

• RSI can stay overbought or oversold for a long time in strong trends.
• The current template does not detect divergence.

MACD

MACD is a lagging trend-and-momentum indicator. The current template uses standard 12 / 26 / 9 MACD and reads the histogram:

• positive histogram = bullish = buy
• negative histogram = bearish = sell
• flat histogram = hold

SMA

SMA here is a single moving-average comparison, not a crossover system.

• default period: 200
• price above SMA = buy
• price below SMA = sell

This is best treated as a long-horizon trend filter.

EMA

EMA is the same one-line comparison as SMA, but it weights recent prices more heavily.

• default period: 200
• price above EMA = buy
• price below EMA = sell

MA Cross

MA Cross is the crossover strategy.

• default periods: 50 fast / 200 slow
• supported types: sma or ema
• bullish cross or fast above slow = buy
• bearish cross or fast below slow = sell

Bollinger Bands

Bollinger Bands are volatility bands around a moving average.

• default period: 20
• default standard deviations: 2
• price above upper band = overbought = sell
• price below lower band = oversold = buy
• inside the bands = hold

This is a volatility-and-extension signal, not a directional indicator by itself.

Donchian

Donchian Channels track the highest high and lowest low over a rolling lookback.

• default period: 20
• close above the prior upper channel = bullish breakout = buy
• close below the prior lower channel = bearish breakdown = sell
• inside the channel = hold

This is the breakout option in the current lineup.
