How This Course Is Organized

Every indicator sits in one of 8 groups. The groups follow a logical progression — from price-based trend tools at the start, to order-flow and microstructure tools at the end.

Group Lessons What It Covers
Trend-Following 3–10 SMA, EMA, MACD, ADX, Ichimoku, Supertrend, Heiken Ashi, Keltner
Momentum & Oscillators 11–17 RSI, Stochastic, ROC, Awesome Oscillator, Ultimate Oscillator, Williams %R, RVI
Volatility 18–24 ATR, Bollinger Bands, Donchian, Historical Volatility, Parkinson, GARCH, IV Rank
Volume & Smart Money 25–32 Volume, OBV, VROC, MFI, A/D Line, Volume Profile, VWAP, Market Profile
Support & Resistance 33–37 S/R Levels, Pivot Points, Fibonacci Retracement, Fibonacci Extension, Camarilla
Mean Reversion 38–42 DPO, Z-Score, Stochastic RSI, Connors RSI, Hurst Exponent
Correlation & Multi-Asset 43–47 Beta, Relative Strength, Correlation Coefficient, Cointegration, Dynamic Correlation
Market Microstructure 48–54 Order Flow Imbalance, Bid-Ask Spread, Market Depth, VPIN, Kyle's Lambda, Cumulative Delta, GEX

Lesson 2 covers the full taxonomy — what each group does and when to use it. Lessons 55 and 56 are back matter: proven trade setups and a full cheat sheet across all 52 indicators.

What Every Lesson Covers

Every indicator lesson follows the same 10-section structure. You always know where to find what you need.

How to Use This Course

Start at Lesson 2 (Indicator Taxonomy) for full context. Work through groups in order: Trend → Momentum → Volatility → Volume → S/R → Mean Reversion → Correlation → Microstructure. Read Lesson 55 (Winning Setups) and Lesson 56 (Cheat Sheet) last to connect everything. Best for: traders building a systematic foundation from scratch.

What This Course Does Not Cover

ℹ️ INFO
This course explains how each indicator works, how to read it, and how to use it in a trade. It does not cover broker setup, live trading execution, or portfolio management. For systematic execution and trade management, see the Options Trade Masterclass and the Edges Catalog on Oyamori Learning.

A Note on Indicator Limits

Every indicator in this course is a tool — not a signal generator. Each lesson is explicit about failure conditions: when the indicator breaks down, what market regimes it cannot handle, and what it cannot tell you.

⚠️ WARNING
No indicator works in all market conditions. Trend indicators fail in ranging markets. Oscillators fail in strong trends. Microstructure indicators require data access most retail platforms do not provide. Every lesson states these conditions clearly so you use each indicator in the right context.

Use the next lesson — Indicator Taxonomy — to understand which group of tools fits the market you are trading today.
