What is a technical indicator?

A repeatable calculation from price and trading activity. It describes the direction a price has taken, the pace of that move, how much trading came with it, or how wide the recent range has been. Each page here answers one of those questions and states its own formula.

How do the three dials fit together?

Direction describes the path price has taken. Pace describes how fast it has been moving. The third combines those two with trading activity: 40% direction, 40% pace and 20% trading activity. Similar averages share one group so they cannot outvote everything else.

Why can two candle intervals disagree?

A one-hour candle and a daily candle summarise different stretches of trading, so a short bounce can sit inside a longer fall. Every dial and every card here is read on the same daily candles, so you are comparing like with like. Open any chart and you can read it on a shorter or longer candle there.

Why can two charts disagree?

They are answering different questions. A short rise can sit inside a longer fall, and a measure of range size says nothing about direction. Read each chart on its own scale before reading them against each other.

Where do the numbers come from?

Maketo reads one combined Bitcoin spot market and calculates every formula itself, on completed candles. The candle boundaries, the defaults and the rules behind each dial are written out in the methodology.
