# Indicator Catalog

There are **59** indicators. Use the [registry](https://api.mobiusquant.ai/api/indicators/registry) for parameter and output definitions and the [catalog](https://api.mobiusquant.ai/api/indicators/catalog) for chart support.

## Request and response

Call `POST /api/indicators`. Each `calc[]` item has a `name`, optional `params`, and optional `id`:

```json
{"exchange":"binance","market":"perp","symbol":"BTCUSDT","interval":"5m","limit":100,"calc":[{"name":"rsi","id":"rsi","params":{"period":14}}]}
```

This partial response illustrates the structure. Read `indicators[responseKey]`; `columns` defines the order of values in each `data` row. Candle `open_time` is in milliseconds.

```json
{
  "indicators": {
    "rsi": {
      "columns": ["open_time", "rsi"],
      "data": [[1735689600000, 55.0]],
      "explain": {
        "name": "RSI",
        "summary_focus": ["当前 RSI 数值及近期变化"]
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Use `?explain=true` to include interpretation notes under each indicator's `explain`; use `?explain=false` for numeric results only. Interpretation notes are returned in Chinese.

| Field | Use |
| --- | --- |
| `columns` / `data` | Field names and per-candle values |
| `objects` | Events or ranges returned by some indicators; see their reference pages |
| `meta` | Result status returned by some indicators; see their reference pages |
| `explain.summary_focus` | Interpretation notes |
| `explain.outputs` / `signals` / `caveats` | Indicator-specific field meanings, signal rules and limitations; not present for every indicator |

## Category breakdown

| Category | Count | Examples |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `base` | 1 | `price` |
| `momentum` | 18 | MACD, RSI family, TSI, ... |
| `oscillator` | 4 | RSI, Fisher Transform, RVI |
| `trend` | 15 | EMA, SuperTrend, PSAR, [HMM](./hmm_regime) |
| `trend_strength` | 4 | ADX, Aroon, Vortex |
| `volatility` | 10 | ATR, Bollinger, Keltner, ... |
| `volume` | 7 | OBV, CMF, CVD, KVO, VWAP |

::: tip Registry vs catalog
- `/api/indicators/registry` → full self-description (params, output cols, types) — consumed by programs
- `/api/indicators/catalog` → chartable subset + drawing metadata — consumed by chart clients
- `/api/indicators` → POST compute endpoint, returns klines + indicator values

## Usage examples

### Single indicator: EMA(20) on BTC 5-minute

```bash
curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer mq_xxx" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "exchange": "binance",
    "market":   "perp",
    "symbol":   "BTCUSDT",
    "interval": "5m",
    "limit":    100,
    "calc":     [{"name": "ema", "params": {"period": 20}}]
  }' \
  https://api.mobiusquant.ai/api/indicators
```

### Multiple indicators: RSI + MACD + Bollinger

```bash
curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer mq_xxx" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "exchange": "binance",
    "market":   "perp",
    "symbol":   "BTCUSDT",
    "interval": "1h",
    "limit":    200,
    "calc": [
      {"name": "rsi",       "params": {"period": 14}},
      {"name": "macd",      "params": {"fast": 12, "slow": 26, "signal": 9}},
      {"name": "bollinger", "params": {"period": 20, "stdev": 2}}
    ]
  }' \
  https://api.mobiusquant.ai/api/indicators
```

### Same indicator with different params (use `id` to disambiguate)

```json
{
  "calc": [
    {"id": "ema_fast", "name": "ema", "params": {"period": 12}},
    {"id": "ema_slow", "name": "ema", "params": {"period": 26}}
  ]
}
```
