Technical Analysis
Acceleration Bands (ABANDS) created by Price Headley. Plots bands around a simple moving average as the midpoint and the upper and lower bands are of equal distance from this midpoint. Look for breakouts outside these bands, while also using the shorter time frames to define likely support and resistance levels at the lower and upper Acceleration Bands. This indicator is usually plotted on the price chart.
- ABANDS(high, low, close, period)
Returns an array with 3 results arrays. Upper on index 1, middle on index 2 and lower on index 3.

Accumulation/Distribution Line (AD) Developed by Marc Chaikin, the Accumulation Distribution Line is a volume-based indicator designed to measure the cumulative flow of money into and out of a security. Chaikin originally referred to the indicator as the Cumulative Money Flow Line. As with cumulative indicators, the Accumulation Distribution Line is a running total of each period's Money Flow Volume. First, a multiplier is calculated based on the relationship of the close to the high-low range. Second, the Money Flow Multiplier is multiplied by the period's volume to come up with a Money Flow Volume. A running total of the Money Flow Volume forms the Accumulation Distribution Line. This indicator is usually plotted to its own chart.
- AD(high, low, close, volume)
Returns the AD result.

Developed by Marc Chaikin, the Chaikin Oscillator (ADOSC) measures the momentum of the Accumulation Distribution Line using the MACD formula. (This makes it an indicator of an indicator.) The Chaikin Oscillator is the difference between the 3-day and 10-day EMAs of the Accumulation Distribution Line. Like other momentum indicators, this indicator is designed to anticipate directional changes in the Accumulation Distribution Line by measuring the momentum behind the movements. A momentum change is the first step to a trend change. This indicator is usually plotted to its own chart.

The Average Directional Index (ADX) depicts a presence or absence of a trend. ADX advices on the strength of the dominant forces that move market prices here and now.

Average Directional Movement Index Rating (ADXR) is a smoothed version of ADX indicator and is used as a rating of the Directional Movement while smoothing out ADX values.

This indicator is usually plotted to its own chart.

The Average True Range (ATR), developed by Wilder, gives traders a feel of what the historical volatility was in order to prepare for trading in the actual market. Currency pairs that get lower ATR readings suggest lower market volatility, while currency pairs with higher ATR indicator readings require appropriate trading adjustments according to higher volatility. Wilder used the Moving average to smooth out the ATR indicator readings, so that ATR looks the way we know it. This indicator is usually plotted to its own chart.

The Beta (BETA) value can measure he volatility of a coin in relation to that of the market. For stock investors the beta value[1] of a portfolio is an important measure of risk, a value above 1 means the investment is more volatile than the market, a value lower than 1 is less volatile. It can be helpful to do a beta analysis for your portfolio to see how returns match up against the beta and spot real winners (low beta, high returns). Since most altcoins are still sold and bought using Bitcoin (BTC), its price could be used as the [Market's source data] (2nd input parameter), which results BTC a beta of 1. This indicator is usually plotted to its own chart.
