Indicators
The built-in library and how parameters affect results.
Indicator families
Indicators are grouped into four families. Trend indicators such as moving averages and Supertrend identify direction. Momentum indicators including RSI, MACD and the Awesome Oscillator measure the strength of a move. Volatility indicators like ATR and Bollinger Bands size the expected range. Volume indicators confirm whether participation supports the move.
A robust strategy usually combines families rather than stacking three momentum indicators that all say the same thing in slightly different ways.
Parameter stability
The engine tests a neighbourhood around every parameter you choose. What we want to see is a plateau — a region where nearby parameter values produce similar results.
A sharp spike means your chosen value is a lucky point in a noisy surface. If moving a lookback from 14 to 15 collapses returns, that edge will not survive contact with live markets.
Prefer a strategy that returns 40% across a broad plateau over one that returns 180% at a single parameter value.
Custom indicators
Pro and Elite tiers can define custom indicators from arithmetic combinations of existing series, up to 20 per account. Custom indicators are validated by the same seven gates as any other rule component — there is no shortcut around the engine.
