Radar

When does which bot have its weather?

The radar does not predict prices. It reads sensors that are not contained in the price — who is buying, who is selling, how many accounts are betting on rising prices — and shows whether the conditions under which a bot used to earn money are present right now.

A display, not a trading signal. The radar changes nothing about your bots. A demo test running until January 2027 checks whether it holds going forward — the result will be posted here afterwards, whatever it is.

Where to find it

Bot weather

Four states, for every bot

Radar in the Command Center: bot weather for each bot, below it the sensors buying pressure and long/short
Real recording · radar in the Command Center
GOOD WEATHER

The sensor is where the bot used to earn money.

MIXED WEATHER

Middle third: about zero in the past.

BAD WEATHER

The sensor is where the bot used to lose money.

NO VERDICT

No sensor held up for this bot.

Scout and Quorum always show bad weather: in our study they lost in every market regime. Confluence, Grid and DCA get no verdict.

The sensors

What happened in such weeks in the past

One value every Sunday, compared with the 52 weeks before and split into three thirds. Below it is what the bot earned in the four weeks after — on average per coin, with $100 margin, after costs.

Found on the first coin, contradictory on the second — hence only “maybe”.

Why the bounds slide

Buying pressure has drifted over the years. With fixed bounds from the learning period, the test period spent only 5 of 109 weeks in the bottom third. The radar therefore always divides the last 52 weeks into thirds — so “low” stays low even when the whole market shifts.

This rule was made after looking at the data. That is exactly why it is now being tested going forward, not again on the same years.

Study and demo test

Tests26
all conditions met2
after cross-check1

Since 2 October 2026 two groups of twelve Donchian bots each have been running in the demo account on the large coins: one always on, the other does not enter again as long as buying pressure is in the bottom third. 13 weeks, nothing is changed along the way.

What else you see

Fear & Greed, market regime, altcoin season, open interest and liquidations. They predicted nothing for our bots — they are still shown because they show how the market is ticking right now.
