ZenAlgo - Dominator 🆓

The ZenAlgo Dominator indicator provides a powerful multi-ticker, multi-factor view of crypto market momentum and leadership. It visually tracks up to 9 tickers alongside BTC, ETH, and market dominance, revealing real-time shifts between Bitcoin, altcoins, and stablecoins—all at a glance.

Want to know which coins are leading, which are lagging, and when the market is rotating between “BTC season” and “Altseason”? This is your radar. 🚦

How to Read the Dominator Panel​

The indicator plots a dynamic table and multi-line chart:

  • Lines show intraday % moves (from daily open) for all your tracked tickers, BTC, ETH, and combined dominance.
  • Table (top-right by default) summarizes ticker names, their short-term status, and current market regime.
  • Labels next to price lines display live price and % change for each ticker.

Color Coding​

Each ticker has its own unique color for easy tracking (see chart legend and lines):

  • Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Purple, Teal, Fuchsia, Aqua, Silver for your custom tickers.
  • Orange/Gold for BTC.
  • Aqua for ETH.
  • Red for combined dominance (BTC+USDT+USDC).

Status cells in the table are color-coded:

  • 🟢 Full Bull: Green
  • đźź© Bullish: Lime
  • 🟥 Full Bear: Red
  • 🟧 Bearish: Orange
  • ⬜ Neutral: Gray

Market State (rightmost column) colors:

  • 🟢 Altseason: Green
  • 🔵 BTC season: Blue
  • ⬜ Neutral: Gray

What Each Visual Means​

1. % Change (Line Chart and Labels)​

  • Shows intraday move from daily open—positive = up, negative = down.
  • Labels show:
    [Ticker]: [Current Price] | [Today % Change]
  • Example: DOGEUSDT: 0.127 | 2.15%

2. Table Columns​

  • Ticker: The asset symbol, color-matched to its line.
  • Status: Momentum/strength, taking into account both the asset and macro trend context.
  • Market: Current market regime (Altseason, BTC season, or Neutral).

Status & Market Logic​

Ticker Status​

Determined using a combination of price direction, BTC/ETH trend, and dominance:

  • Full Bull: Ticker rising and BTC rising or dominance falling.
  • Bullish: Ticker rising, but not supported by broader bullish context.
  • Bearish: Ticker falling, but broader market not confirming.
  • Full Bear: Ticker falling and BTC falling or dominance rising.
  • Neutral: No clear trend or conflicting context.

Market State​

Reflects overall regime:

  • Altseason: BTC dominance ⬇️, ETH dominance ⬆️, ETH stronger than BTC.
  • BTC season: BTC dominance ⬆️, ETH dominance ⬇️, BTC stronger than ETH.
  • Neutral: No strong bias.
Tip

If several altcoins show Full Bull during Altseason, that's typically when the strongest alt rallies happen. 🚀

Typical Uses​

  • Spot early altcoin rotation (see Altseason status with multiple alt “Full Bull”).
  • Monitor leaders/laggards intraday, not just daily.
  • Watch for reversals—if dominance line spikes up, be cautious with altcoins!
  • Identify market sentiment shifts at a glance.

Interpretation Example (from sample chart)​

  • DOGEUSDT, ADAUSDT, BNBUSDT show positive % change with green/cyan/yellow lines trending up.
  • Table marks ADAUSDT as Bearish, BNBUSDT as Bullish, DOGEUSDT as Neutral (colors match lines).
  • "Dominance" (red line) near zero = market is not aggressively risk-off.
  • Market regime is Neutral—no clear BTC or altcoin leadership.

Chart Visuals Reference​

  • Each line = intraday % change from daily open for a ticker.
  • Colors are fixed to tickers for visual clarity.
  • Gray dashed horizontal = 0% (today's open).

Practical Tips​

info

Use on 15m-4h timeframes for best results—capture intraday rotations and market structure.

info

Best with multiple tickers:
Include a mix of majors and trending altcoins for a true overview!

warning

This indicator is not a buy/sell signal. Always cross-reference with volume, structure, and higher timeframe analysis.

Limitations​

  • Does not use volume/liquidity data directly.
  • Short-term moves may be noise in low-volume or ranging periods.
  • Dominance data is from [CRYPTOCAP]—may not always match exchange-specific flows.

Added Value​

  • Combines macro context (dominance/market state) and micro trends (individual ticker moves).
  • One glance: Know if market is risk-on/risk-off, which coins are leading, and where to focus.
  • Avoids the pitfalls of “just % change”—status logic helps spot true momentum, not just random spikes.
