Blockunity Rainbow Score (BRS)
The goal of this indicator, based on several technical analysis metrics, is to help investors quickly and efficiently visualize whether an asset appears to be in a buy or sell zone. It works in a simple way, with a color code and a score, as well as arrows giving signals.
Usage Advice
This indicator can be used on its own, ideally in daily or weekly timeframes, but it also works with other periods. With the « BRS Timeframe » setting, it is possible, for example, to see the BRS values and signals calculated on a daily basis while being on a weekly timeframe chart. Use your graph in logarithmic scale.
The zones and signals indicated by the BRS can be effectively coupled with a DCA strategy.
If the asset you wish to observe has been listed very recently or has limited history, enable the « Very young asset » option in the BRS settings.
If you want to observe assets that are not cryptoassets, make sure to set the BRS settings « Market Mode » to the option « Traditional ».
The Different Elements And Signals
The base of this indicator is first of all an optimized moving average, taking into account the volatility of the asset. This varies from green to red depending on whether the asset price is above or below this average.
Around this baseline are formed several bands. The lower bands (blue to green shades) form oversold areas. In these regions, it is recommended to buy rather than sell. Conversely, in the upper areas (yellow to red tones), represent overbought levels. It is then recommended to make sales.
To see at a glance in which zone we are currently located, we have added a panel with the score and the current signal.
In the panel there is also a strategy indication. This indication is coupled with the arrows (red, green and blue) that can be seen scattered across the chart.
These arrows indicate when the asset is considered to be at an inflection point, a change in trend. Behind this is a mechanism that takes into account volatility , momentum and trend. The green arrows indicate buying opportunities and the red arrows indicate selling times. The blue arrows (optional display to be activated in the parameters) give indications with less confidence, they are weaker but more aggressive signals. The signal is to be taken up or down depending on the direction of the arrow.
Finally, we give an indication of the market phase in which the asset is situated. Above the main line we consider to be in a bullish market and below in a bearish market.
