Intelligence
Several readings. One decision.
PERP KING does not open a trade from a single indicator. Price action, momentum, order flow, derivatives context, news, multiple timeframes and the broader market each contribute to one outcome: LONG, SHORT, or WAIT.
A unified decision
Each reading is made on its own, for the long case and the short case. They are not handed to the customer as a stack of opinions to reconcile. The software produces one decision. A trade is opened only when enough of those readings support the same side, the data is fit to use, and the profit left after fees, funding and slippage is still worth the risk.
A final review looks for reasons not to trade. Disagreement is one of them. Missing or stale data is another. Either one ends the pass as WAIT. The formulas, thresholds, weights and scoring that turn the readings into that decision are private. Intelligence is the same account, from inside the machine.
What contributes
| Reading | What it contributes |
|---|---|
| Price action | Candles, structure and levels, from the one-minute chart through the daily chart. |
| Momentum | Whether a move is building, stalling or fading, rather than only where price has been. |
| Order flow | Who is trading now, how aggressively, and whether the book can absorb an entry and an exit. Order flow follows this through the life of the position. |
| Derivatives context | Funding and open interest, where the exchange provides them: how the crowd is positioned, and funding as a real cost of holding a live perpetual. |
| News | Fresh items with a source, a time and the symbols they concern. An old item is not treated as breaking. A rumour is not treated as a fact. |
| Multiple timeframes | The same market on short and long horizons, so a brief impulse and the larger structure are both in the decision. |
| Broader market | BTC, ETH and the regime around them, before an aggressive trade in another perpetual. |
Futures positioning is used as context for the directional decision. Funding on a live position is a cash flow Kraken applies to the account, described on funding. It is part of the cost of being in the trade.
Both directions, then one answer
The readings are taken for LONG and for SHORT. The answer is the side that holds together, or neither. Restricting direction in the customer's limits removes a side from consideration. It does not manufacture agreement on the side that remains.
That answer is the start of the intraday loop. WAIT stops the pass. LONG or SHORT, once the mode is running and the limits allow it, becomes an entry — and then position management.
What is public
Public pages name the readings, the requirement that they agree, and the order of a trade. They do not publish the models, the scoring, or the line at which a reading is strong enough. That is deliberate. The behaviour can be understood. The strategy cannot be copied from the site.
Questions
Is this a single indicator with extra filters?
No. Price, momentum, order flow, derivatives context, news, timeframe structure and the broader market are separate readings. A trade requires enough of them to support the same side.
Does news override the chart?
News is one reading, with a source and a time. It does not replace price, flow or the broader market, and a stale item is not treated as a new event.
Where do BTC and ETH fit?
They are context for every other market. A setup in another perpetual is read with what Bitcoin and Ether are doing, not in isolation.
