In the game, indicators are “weapons”. Only the weapons you equip before a match are drawn on the chart, and each weapon takes up room, so you cannot bring them all at once. Here are the slot rules and the setup you start with.
Where to equip
On the “Weapons” screen, press the + button to equip a weapon you own. You can open the screen from the weapon chip in the lobby, from “My Profile”, when choosing an investment, and when choosing an opponent in “Practice Match”. Weapons with settings (such as a period) can be equipped with different values, and you can equip the same weapon more than once with different values.
Four kinds of slots
| Section | What goes there | Limit | How it counts |
|---|---|---|---|
| On chart | Lines drawn over the candles on the same price scale, such as moving averages | 6 lines | Counted by lines. One Simple Moving Average is 1 line, Bollinger Bands is 3 lines and Ichimoku Cloud is 5 lines. |
| Sub-charts | Indicators drawn in a panel separate from the candle chart, such as volume or MACD | 2 panels | One indicator per panel. Indicators drawn inside another indicator’s panel, like Volume MA, take no panel of their own; up to 2 fit in one panel. |
| Candle markings | Weapons that mark candles that meet a condition, such as the candle-shape weapons from lesson 1 or cross markers | 3 | Each weapon counts as one. |
| Volume profile | Volume Profile, which shows how much trading built up at each price level | 1 | Each weapon counts as one. |
Each section header on the “Weapons” screen shows “used / limit”. When there is no room, the game tells you what to remove.
The setup you start with
You start with Simple Moving Average 5 and 20 (2 lines in “On chart”) and Volume (1 panel in “Sub-charts”). All three are “Included” weapons.
| Section | Room left |
|---|---|
| On chart | 4 lines |
| Sub-charts | 1 panel |
| Candle markings | 3 |
| Volume profile | 1 |
Volume MA is also an “Included” weapon, so you can add it right away. It is drawn in the volume panel and does not use the remaining panel (lesson 4).
Tips for choosing
- More is not better. The more lines you add, the more they hide the candles, and the more you have to weigh, the slower you decide.
- Mix weapons that look at different things. One line for the trend, volume, and one candle marking do not overlap.
- Try a new weapon in “Practice Match” first. Your rating and wallet do not change there.
