## 1. Moving Average Exponential
> An exponential moving average is a type of moving average that places a greater weight and significance on the most recent data points. The exponential moving average is also referred to as the exponentially weighted moving average.

## 2. ASI
> ASI is a virtual line drawn by connecting the opening price, the highest price, the lowest price, and closing prices to accurately reflect the current market conditions. ASI provides more authentic data than the market price at that time, serving as a basis to verify whether the price really hits a new high or a new low. The ASI, as a precisely calculated indicator,  helps users make better price judgments.

## 3. Vortex Indicator
> A vortex indicator (VI) is an indicator composed of two lines - an uptrend line (VI+) and a downtrend line (VI-). These lines are typically colored green and red respectively. A vortex indicator is used to spot trend reversals and confirm current trends.

## 4. Least Squares Moving Average
> The Least Squares Moving Average (Lsma) first calculates a least squares regression line over the preceding time periods, and then projects it forward to the current period.  In essence, it calculates what the value would be if the regression line continued.

## 5. Mass Index
> Mass index is a form of technical analysis that examines the range between high and low stock prices over a period of time. Mass index, developed by Donald Dorsey in the early 1990s, suggests that a reversal of the current trend will likely take place when the range widens beyond a certain point and then contracts.

## 6. Choppiness Index
> The Choppiness Index (CHOP) is an indicator designed to determine if the market is choppy (trading sideways) or not choppy (trading within a trend in either direction). The Choppiness Index is an example of an indicator that is not directional at all. CHOP is not meant to predict future market direction, it is a metric to be used to for defining the market's trendiness only.

## 7. Advance/Decline
> The advance/decline line (or A/D line) is a technical indicator that plots the difference between the number of advancing and declining stocks on a daily basis. The indicator is cumulative, with a positive number being added to the prior number, or if the number is negative it is subtracted from the prior number.

## 8. Correlation Coefficient
> Correlation coefficients are used to measure how strong a relationship is between two variables. There are several types of correlation coefficient, but the most popular is Pearson’s. Pearson’s correlation (also called Pearson’s R) is a correlation coefficient commonly used in linear regression.

## 9. Relative Strength Index
> The relative strength index (RSI) is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis. RSI measures the speed and magnitude of a security's recent price changes to evaluate overvalued or undervalued conditions in the price of that security.

## 10. Relatibe Volatility Index
> The Relative Volatility Index (RVI) is a volatility indicator, much like the Relative Strength Index (RSI), but with a few key differences. The RVI measures the standard deviation of prices as they change over time, whereas the RSI measures absolute price changes. The Relative Volatility Index is plotted on the chart and ranges from 0 to 100.

## 11. Relative Vigor Index
> The Relative Vigor Index (RVI) is an oscillator based on the concept that prices tend to close higher than they open in up trends and close lower than they open in down trends. Basically, it is an oscillator that is in phase with the cycle of the underlying's price.

## 12. True Strength Indicator
> The true strength index (TSI) is a technical momentum oscillator used to identify trends and reversals. The indicator may be useful for determining overbought and oversold conditions, indicating potential trend direction changes via centerline or signal line crossovers, and warning of trend weakness through divergence.

## 13. Average True Range
> The average true range (ATR) is a market volatility indicator used in technical analysis. It is typically derived from the 14-day simple moving average of a series of true range indicators. The ATR was originally developed for use in commodities markets but has since been applied to all types of securities.

## 14. Moving Average
> A moving average (MA) is a stock indicator commonly used in technical analysis, used to help smooth out price data by creating a constantly updated average price. A rising moving average indicates that the security is in an uptrend, while a declining moving average indicates a downtrend.

## 15. Moving Average Channel
> The moving average channel (MAC) is a method that was developed and refined over twenty years ago. It is very useful and effective in stocks and futures. It offers a specific method for determining the initial stop-loss for a trade once there has been a setup and a trigger.

## 16. MA Cross
> This indicator calculates and plots two moving averages, MA9 and MA21, and highlights the bar where they cross. It is an indicator that shows when a trend is changing in the short-term and getting either weaker or stronger.

## 17. Ease Of Movement
> Richard Arms' Ease of Movement (EOM or EMV) indicator is a technical study that attempts to quantify a mix of momentum and volume information into one value. The intent is to use this value to discern whether prices are able to rise, or fall, with little resistance in the directional movement.

## 18. Accumulation/Distribution
> The accumulation/distribution indicator (A/D) is a cumulative indicator that uses volume and price to assess whether a stock is being accumulated or distributed. The A/D measure seeks to identify divergences between the stock price and the volume flow.

## 19. Linear Regression Curve
> Linear Regression Curve (LRC) is a type of Moving Average based on the linear regression line equation (y = a + mx). The calculation produces a straight line with the best fit for the various prices for the period. The end point of this line is used to plot the LRC. A signal line (PRICE), which is price chosen by the user is used to help trigger signals. Two user factors are applied to the price to determine the buy or sell signal. The user may change the input (close), period length and factors.

## 20. Ultimate Oscillator
> The Ultimate Oscillator is a technical indicator that was developed by Larry Williams in 1976 to measure the price momentum of an asset across multiple timeframes. By using the weighted average of three different timeframes the indicator has less volatility and fewer trade signals compared to other oscillators that rely on a single timeframe.

## 21. Keltner Channels
> Keltner channel is a technical analysis indicator showing a central moving average line plus channel lines at a distance above and below. The indicator is named after Chester W. Keltner (1909–1998) who described it in his 1960 book How To Make Money in Commodities. This name was applied by those who heard about it from him, but Keltner called it the ten-day moving average trading rule and indeed made no claim to any originality for the idea.

## 22. On Balance Volume
> On Balance Volume (OBV) measures buying and selling pressure as a cumulative indicator that adds volume on up days and subtracts volume on down days. When the security closes higher than the previous close, all of the day’s volume is considered up-volume. When the security closes lower than the previous close, all of the day’s volume is considered down-volume.

## 23. Hull Moving Average
> The Hull Moving Average (HMA) was developed by Alan Hull for the purpose of reducing lag, increasing responsiveness while at the same time eliminating noise. Its calculation is elaborate and makes use of the Weighted Moving Average (WMA). It emphasizes recent prices over older ones, resulting in a fast-acting yet smooth moving average that can be used to identify the prevailing market trend.

## 24. Elders Force Index
> The Elder Force Index indicator is used to measure the power driving a movement in the price. It tries to highlight potential price reversals and corrections by analyzing the direction, length, and volume driving the price movement.

## 25. Chaikin Money Flow
> The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) is an indicator created by Marc Chaikin in the 1980s to monitor the accumulation and distribution of a stock over a specified period. The default CMF period is 21 days. The indicator readings range between +1 and -1. Any crosses above or below 0 can be used to identify changes in money flow, as well as buying or selling momentum.

## 26. Chaikin Oscillator
The Chaikin oscillator is named for its creator Marc Chaikin.
> The oscillator measures the accumulation-distribution line of moving average convergence-divergence (MACD).To calculate the Chaikin oscillator, subtract a 10-day exponential moving average (EMA) of the accumulation-distribution line from a 3-day EMA of the accumulation-distribution line. This measures momentum predicted by oscillations around the accumulation-distribution line.

## 27. Fisher Transform
> The Fisher Transform is a technical indicator created by John F. Ehlers that converts prices into a Gaussian normal distribution. The indicator highlights when prices have moved to an extreme, based on recent prices. This may help in spotting turning points in the price of an asset. It also helps show the trend and isolate the price waves within a trend.

## 28. Money Flow
> Money flow is a technical indicator used to assess the future movement of prices based on demand and supply. It is used to construct the difference between uptick and downtick dollar trading volume. Money flow, whether flowing in or out, indicates the current excess supply or demand.

## 29. Supertrend
> The Supertrend indicator is a technical analysis tool that helps identify strong upward and downward trends. The indicator uses previous prices as input and compares the current price with the indicator’s line to determine the future price trajectory. The Supertrend indicator is beneficial in trending markets but may be an unreliable measure during periods of consolidation.

## 30. Pivot Points Standard
> Pivot points are used by traders in equity and commodity exchanges. They're calculated based on the high, low, and closing prices of previous trading sessions, and they're used to predict support and resistance levels in the current or upcoming session.

## 31. McGinley Dynamic
> The McGinley Dynamic indicator is a type of moving average that was designed to track the market better than existing moving average indicators. It is a technical indicator that improves upon moving average lines by adjusting for shifts in market speed. John R. McGinley, a market technician, is the inventor of the eponymous indicator.

## 32. Chande Kroll Stop
> The Chande Kroll Stop is an indicator that calculates average stop-loss and take-profit prices for Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and other altcoins.

## 33. Chande Momentum Oscillator
> The Chande momentum oscillator is a technical indicator that uses momentum to identify relative strength or weakness in a market. The chosen time frame greatly affects signals generated by the indicator. Pattern recognition often generates more reliable signals than absolute oscillator levels.

## 34. Arnaud Legoux Moving Average
> Arnaud Legoux moving average (ALMA) indicator is a technical analysis tool that eliminates minor price fluctuations and enhances the trend of the market.

## 35. Aroon
> The Aroon indicator is a technical indicator that is used to identify trend changes in the price of an asset, as well as the strength of that trend. In essence, the indicator measures the time between highs and the time between lows over a time period.

## 36. Stochastic
> A stochastic oscillator is a momentum indicator comparing a particular closing price of a security to a range of its prices over a certain period of time. The sensitivity of the oscillator to market movements is reducible by adjusting that time period or by taking a moving average of the result. It is used to generate overbought and oversold trading signals, utilizing a 0–100 bounded range of values.

## 37. Stoch RSI
> The Stochastic RSI (StochRSI) is an indicator used in technical analysis that ranges between zero and one (or zero and 100 on some charting platforms) and is created by applying the Stochastic oscillator formula to a set of relative strength index (RSI) values rather than to standard price data.

## 38. Detrended Price Oscillator
> The detrended price oscillator (DPO) is an indicator in technical analysis that attempts to eliminate the long-term trends in prices by using a displaced moving average so it does not react to the most current price action. This allows the indicator to show intermediate overbought and oversold levels effectively.
