IndexogramIndexogram is a platform designed to help traders analyze the Commitment of Traders (COT) report data. It specifically focuses on the Rate Of Change (ROC) of the COT data, visualized using a unique polyline plotting technique.
Commitments of Traders % Rate Of Change (%ROC):
The COT %ROC indicates the momentum of trader positions over a specified period. This measure is crucial for understanding shifts in market sentiment and potential future price movements.
Unique Polyline Plotting Technique:
Unlike traditional line or bar charts, the polyline plotting technique used in Indexogram offers a more nuanced and detailed view of the %ROC data.
Multiple Ticker Monitoring:
Indexogram allows the setup of up to five different tickers. Traders can assign different weightages to these tickers, enabling a customized and weighted view of their %ROC data. This feature is beneficial for tracking a diversified portfolio or comparing different assets.
Average ROI Plot:
An additional feature is the Average ROI plot, which provides the average return on investment (ROI) of the five selected tickers. This plot helps traders quickly assess the overall performance of their monitored assets.
Strategy for Traders
Diversified Monitoring:
By setting up five different tickers with varying weightages, traders can diversify their monitoring efforts across different assets or markets. This diversification helps in reducing risk and identifying opportunities in different sectors or asset classes.
Weightage Customization:
Assign weightages based on market conditions or personal trading strategy. For example, if a trader believes that commodities are likely to outperform equities in the near term, they can assign a higher weightage to commodities-related tickers.
Analyzing %ROC Trends:
Use the polyline plots to identify significant %ROC trends. A rising %ROC might indicate increasing momentum and a potential buying opportunity, while a falling %ROC could signal decreasing momentum and a potential selling opportunity.
Average ROI Analysis:
Use the Average ROI plot to gauge the overall performance of the selected assets. If the average ROI is positive and trending upwards, it indicates a generally favorable market condition for the monitored assets.
Tactical Adjustments:
Regularly review and adjust the selected tickers and their weightages based on changing market conditions, news, and personal insights. This flexibility allows traders to adapt their strategy in response to new information.
Important Notes:
Indexogram is a tool to identify potential tradings, not a guaranteed predictor of future price movements.

Compound strategyIn this strategy, I looked at how to manage the crypto I bought. Once we have a little understanding of how cryptocurrency is valued, we can manage the coins we have. For example, the most valuable coin in a coin is to sell when it is overvalued and re-buy when it is undervalued. Furthermore, I realised that buying from the right place and selling at the right time is very important to make a good profit. When it says sell, it's divided into several parts.
1. When the major uptrend is over and we are able to make the desired profit, we will sell our holdings outright.
2. Selling in the middle of a down trend and buying less than that amount again
3. When a small uptrend is over, sell the ones you bought at a lower price and make a small profit.
The other important thing is that the average cost is gradually reduced. Also, those who sell at a loss will reduce their profit (winning rate), so knowing that we will have a chance to calculate our loss and recover it. I used this to write a strategy in Trading View. I have put the link below it. From that we can see how this idea works. What I did was I made the signal by taking some technical indicators as I did in the previous one (all the indicators I got in this case were directional indicators, then I was able to get a good correlation and a standard deviation. I multiplied the correlation and the standard deviation by both and I took the signal as the time when the graph went through zero, and I connected it to the volume so that I could see some of the volume supported by it.)
Now let me tell you a little bit about what I see in this strategy. In this I used the compound effect. That is, the strategy, the profit he takes to reinvest. On the other hand, the strategy itself can put a separate stop loss value on each trade and avoid any major loss from that trade. I also added to this strategy the ability to do swing trading. That means we can take the small profits that come with going on a big up trend or a big down trend. Combined with Compound Effect, Stop Loss and Swing Trading, I was able to make a profit of 894% per annum (1,117.62% for 15 months) with a winning rate of 80%. Winning rate dropped to 80% because I added stop loss and swing trading. The other thing is that I applied DCA to this in both the up trend and the down trend (both). That was another reason for me to make a good profit. The orange line shows how to reduction of costly trade. The yellow line shows the profit and you can see that the profit line does not go down during the loss trades. That's because I want to absorb the loss from that trade.
Multi ROIThis is really, really, really basic.
Its just 10 ROIs - Return On Investment- plots for the following periods:
1 week
1 month
1/2 year
1 year
2 year
3 year
4 year
5 year
6 year
7 year
It is meant for 1 day bars. Of course it will work anywhere and you can change the settings to fit your purposes but I thought these were the most useful periods.
