Indicators

Indicators are TSGraph programs compiled into schema-owned compute programs. Standard indicators such as SMA, RSI, and MACD are prewritten programs in the same model as custom authoring output.

  • Define inputs, computed series, plots, outputs, logs, drawings, strategy effects, and alerts.
  • Run inside TSGraph rather than as frontend-only helper functions.
  • Attach to chart panes and participate in chart, alert, and research flows.
  • Expose authoring diagnostics through the language service and validation assets.

Indicator definitions are not just parameter bags for named functions. The compute owner is TSGraph, and the chart consumes projected series and effects.
